lyrics

Atomic flashback cutting to
The shots you fired knocking back your salted wounds
This evidence of twinning truths
Alien-nation from the one I thought I knew

We consume the world in stereoscopy
Anaglyphic lense the picture is faulty
Filtered out in shades of red and blue
Cyclopic debate exchange come to find
There’s something deeper here than point of view
You

Like a broken record you’re “not but”
Like a broken record you’re “not but”
Like a broken record you’re “not but”
There’s no I in but but there is a U
There’s no I in but but there is a you

Cut ties and zoom out to reveal
A super-massive asshole foaming with divisive zeal
Stuck in self-righteous serenade
I’m sick and tired of the way the game is played

We consume the world in stereoscopy
Anaglyphic lense the picture is faulty
Filtered out in shades of red and blue
Cyclopic debate exchange come to find
There’s something deeper here than point of view
You

Like a broken record you’re “not but”
Like a broken record you’re “not but”
Like a broken record you’re “not but”
There’s no I in but but there is a U
There’s no I in but but there is a you

You can laugh if you want to
You can pay hashtags no mind
But if ignorance is your intent then don’t pretend that you’re a friend of mine
You can go where you want to
Crossing each and every backwards line
But we’d rather keep on tryna build a better world than watch you stick your head up your behind

Oh, what a funny world it is
When everybody in the party does the best they can to convince us that they care about their fellow man
And oh, what a funny world it is
With all its -isms and it’s constant flow of phobic flair
Wake up every morning just to spin the wheel of thoughts and prayers

Cause there’s nothing else that we can do but sit and stare
And oh, what a fucked up world
That poisons all its children and then takes away their words

FUCK TRUMP, FUCK ICE
FUCK TRUMP, FUCK ICE
FUCK TRUMP, FUCK ICE
THE BODY COUNT’S ON YOUR DEVICE.
