Born into the Beast, never had a chance
There's nothing you can do to change it
No memories of a golden past...
...but you've inherited it's consequences
Hangin' out with your fake-ass friends
Forever borrowing, never wanna lend.
This fuckin' world couldn't be more grim,
When ignorance is the latest trend.
All the idiots talk so loud
Everybody breaks their neck to listen.
I can't be white, and I can't be proud
I'm guilty by association
What the fuck are you talkin' about?
I never had a silver spoon in my mouth
I see the Beast got it's hooks in you
I guess America has fooled you too
chorus:
I see you still don't get it
Mediocrity thrives only because you let it
I know... I know you fuckin' love it
Well I don't, and I fuckin hate you all (Goddamnit)
The Beast will swallow you whole
Put someone else's name on your clothes
Tell you that Life is a TV show
Convincing you that shit is gold
You were created but they never broke the mold
Originality is not in season
Over the cliffs - where the lemmings go
You're only free to do what you're told
(chorus)
What did I do today? All I see is a full ashtray.
Everything today was gray.
Another sunset wasted on the landscape.
(going to hell)
