Hey, Sam, don't point your finger at me, instead flip me the bird.
I know your rhetoric incase you haven't heard.
Serve my country, but what has my country done for me?
It's freedom I'm after, not your facade of "liberty".
You're no uncle of mine, you're not family
You're just a poster boy for crimes against humanity!
Under a motto: "One nation under God."
It's we the people, I ain't a pawn in your fraud.
To go and fight rich mens wars
For blood money out of the pockets of the poor.
Wars keep your friends rich, that's your dirty little secret
You can't afford to have this info repeated.
I have no appetite to inhale gas or swallow anthrax
Draft someone else's (butt)
Who'll blindly surrender his life for the task.
With one foot inside the casket
Counterfeit democracy is a clever tactic
As long as opinion polls twist the public's perception
We'll give more ammo to the president of mass deception.
A draft dodger who bypassed both presidential elections.
How many times are we gonna surrender lives?
For these lies
To an uncle emblazoned in the Scars and Strife
Pull out a book and strike a match
It's time to burn his legacy down to ash.
