Song lyrics

Shhh, quiet
You might piss somebody off
Like me motherfucker
You've been at it for too long
While you feed off others insecurity
You stand in front of me
And bite the hand that feeds

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow man
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I've had enough
It's time for something real
I don't respect the words
You're speaking
Gone too far
A clone

So how does it feel to know that someone's kid in the heart of America
Has blood on their hands, fighting to defend your rights
So you can maintain the lifestyle
that insults his family's existence
Well, where I'm from we have a special salute that we aim high in the air
Towards all those pompous assholes
who spend their days pointing fingers

Fuck you

Shhh, quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like the heartbeat of this country
when antagonized too long
I'll be damned if you count me in
As part of your generous hypocrisy collecting enemies

Tabloid gossip
Queen worthless man
(There's no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda, once again
(Right this way, you've dug your own grave)

I've had enough
It's time for something real
I don't respect the words
You're speaking
Gone too far
A clone

All the way from the east to the west
We got this high society looking down on their very foundation
Constantly reminding us that our actions are the cause of all their problems
Pointing the fingers in every direction
And blaming their own nation for who wins the elections
They've never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize

Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue
Depictions we see, try and get through
Admitting mistakes can hurt
I'm not the last but I sure ain't the first

Shhh, quiet, you might piss somebody off

Self-righteousness is wearing thin
(Lies inside your head your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow man
(Broken glass, your fake reflection)

I've had enough
It's time for something real
I don't respect the words
You're speaking
Gone too far
A clone
