It's giving them a false sense of security
I think it's under control. I'll tell you what
How? A thousand Americans are dying a day
They are dying. That's true. And it is what it is

This bullshit arrogance is something I can't stand to be a witness to, oh
This so called President couldn't be more ignit, he ain't ever gonna get it
So f*ck this world and f*ck this country
F*ck your American dream. I don't give a shit
About your picket fence
Cause you motherfucka's stand to fall when it comes down

No remorse. No restraint. No foundation
You're a face. You're living a lie
No remorse. No restraint. No foundation
You're a face. The parasite

Give me your tired, your poor and broken

It is what it is. The American dream
One forty thousand dead
The American scream
The streets run red from the blood of the dead
Empty homes, shallow holes
You're the parasitic gold

Goddamn, can't believe what I'm hearing
Guess the books never taught me this
There's no empathy, no sympathy
Just "see me"
All you care about is fucking looks

So let's go. The coup de tat
Follow and kill the flaw
If I had a pound for every lie
I could turn stone to fucking diamond

No remorse. No restraint. No foundation
You're a face. You're living a lie
No remorse. No restraint. No foundation
You're a face. The parasite

It is what it is. The American dream
One forty thousand dead
The American scream
The streets run red from the blood of the dead
Empty homes, shallow holes
You're the parasitic gold

I don't understand how you can just sit there
and claim to be a god while your people are out there fucking dying in droves
Can you hear us
Can you hear them
They're fucking dying

It is what it is. The American dream
One forty thousand dead
The American scream
The streets run red from the blood of the dead
Empty homes, shallow holes
You're the parasitic gold

Give me your tired, your poor and broken.
