Chorus
Welcome to the world we live in
Death for all, wars, debts, and prisons

EMC
Like tracks of anthrax bring the noise
Like P.E did it, gotta raise your voice
Got a razor point to the vein rejoice
Up the GDP till the place destroyed
Things we oppose don't go to votes
Musical chairs to the tune of hope
Intelligence gathering, war's a go
Those Patriot missiles don't oppose
There's going gap how the fuck we fix it?
Lady Liberty's name ain't bridge it
All those patches in activist fashion
Ain't going to fucking fill it
Still cheaper to pay
A wage in this day then to maintain a slave
Trickle down, come on make it rain
- ain't nothing free about this trade

Hermitofthewoods
No one gives a fuck about Kardashians
It's a distraction from the fact that the whole system is collapsing
The news is just outrage du jour
The wages of war so rarely make it to our shores
I hate to state the obvious, but we backward hacked the process
Moving in a circle is not equivalent to progress
Step or step up, straight up break out of the mold
Sometimes it's better not to do what you're told

Chorus
Welcome to the world we live in
Death for all, wars, debts, and prisons
Welcome to the world we live in
Drugs for all, regret your children

EMC
The power to change the world lies in public opinion
If they wanna win it, we CPR, to resuscitate they image
That Protest was taste test for Dr. Pepper spray
A parade of underpaid who celebrate the executive raise
The detained on Vacay, Guantanamo bay watch with babes
Durf water boarding, playing intel trivia games
Distorted courts report of killing civilians
The women and children were militant villains
We'll kill their officials and missile their village for riches
Before they come get us

Hermitofthewoods
You really think they'll let us steal the fire from the gods?
We'll need guerrilla tactics and the will to test the odds
They've kept us out of practice, blacklisted the rebellion
Othered opposition and fact-twisted what we tell them
They've got the guns but we've got the numbers
Things are gonna get pretty hot this summer
I used to run from the cops, but not this time
When the bombs start to drop
- watch - we're going to be the front
