lyrics

Verse 1:
I'm celebratin' destruction, while elevating discussion
I'm embracing the ruckus, the devastation and corruption
The buckets of blood, homicide, over hustling drugs
Bustin of slugs, genocide, over government funds
Puppets and dumb, politicians, and a public that listens
Dogmatic fascist, whether Muslim or Christian
Radical activist, bomb and nuking a building
Killing women and children, more innocent civilians
Oil drilling, oil spilling, either way it's sickening
Fear mongering, and posturing, the people are bickering
Picking fights with each other, but never the sovereignty
Afraid to bite the hand that feeds, caged by prophecy
No change in policy, could reframe our philosophy
No length of honesty, could help to embrace our modesty
We're capitalistic, animalistic since birth
Learned I can't if resist it, I can still watch as it's burns

Hook x 2
Watching it burn, burn burn burn
Watching it burn, burn burn burn
Watching it burn, burn burn burn
Setting the world on fire and scorch the earth

Verse 2:
Natural disasters, a catatonic god
Tragedies worsened by our catastrophic response
Catholic remarks, bible quoters, pointing their fingers
Annoyed and bitter, I just sit here, enjoyin my liquor
Addictions, mental illness, people told be resilient
But wages remain stagnant, and people seem emollient
Afraid to be militant, and deflect the significance
Yo respect my existence or expect the resistance
Neglect assistance to us but aid corporations
Republican, democrats, the same propagation
Foreign relations, nations beefing and throwing stones
Simultaneously scheme for increased social controls
Terrorism, freedom fighters they one in the same
Suicide, escapism, with one foot in the grave
Slavery and chains, pulling strings and dulling our brains
Mind control media, deception, bullying, hate

Hook x 2
