Idiot

Idiot was formerly a legal and psychiatric category of profound intellectual disability, where a person's mental age is two years or less, and he or she cannot guard himself or herself against common physical dangers. Along with terms like moron, imbecile, and cretin, the term is now archaic and offensive, and was replaced by the term profound mental retardation (which has itself since been replaced by other terms). Nowadays, "idiot" is a derogatory term for a stupid or foolish person. more »

I wanna be a man in power
F*ck whoever at any hour
Build the world around my own decisions
With a private sector and a tunnel vision
Where our Jesus is whiter than Wall Street investors
Our banker in chief is a pardoned molester
I don't like it, it's illegal
Hoard all the drugs for our own shiny people
Everyone's accustomed to the status quo
Easier to go the way the river flows
Every night they sleep tight the way
only a man in power could ever know
Politics, politics, oh, how they love them
They act a performance for all of their subjects
They can't be content though they have all they need
The devils commitment surpasses his greed

Men in Power
They've got an iron grip
This battles done before it starts
You better call it quits
You better learn to be complacent at your nine to five
Kneel down before the hand that feeds until the day you die
Don't try to question how the system works
You're out of line
And if they want you or your body
Then your theirs to grind
Men in Power
They've got an iron grip
This battles done before it starts
You better call it quits

I heard a contest on the radio that made me think
Our priorities, may be out of sync
Said they were giving out, about a thousand bucks
And they called it "Double your stimulus"
Now that seemed off to me
"Stimulus", that's money for basic needs
We house men with pet sharks to feed
While we  play this game for groceries and electricity
But you can win it if you call in at the right time
Like if you're born in the right place to the right line
And while the wealth gap seems to feed its own growth
Were so commercialized we turn it to a game show
America values immediate access
To fucking to fashion
To view of the actress
If we keep them distracted
Then We can sneak anything past them

Don't try to resist it
It's inevitable
You're powerless to fight it
We are invincible
I've had small incidents shatter my whole reality
People who I trusted deeply blindsided me
For several years i acted so irrational
Now picture this on a scale that is national
Where the American dream
Is a narrative that we taught to believe
Only to grow up and start realizing
All decisions come down from the corporate elite
Who can rape steal and kill with impunity
And if they want to then they can use you or me
We are disposable, we are commodity one
We are tools in the belt of the prodigal son
How the f*ck do you get away with something with that
You do it like this

You are funding the news and  so you manage it
You are funding the schools and so you manage them
If we speak to the children we order
Generations of loyal supporters
Prime example is the catholic church
Teaching that we are the greatest on earth
See, I was raised to be built
Now i feel the effect of my catholic guilt
I think sex is ever, shit puts you in hell
And if you f*ck me ill judge you as well
See i know that the notion is crazy
But it was engrained in my mind as a baby
Ive got mental illness in collections
I dont really know how to correct em
Will i fight or am i just a coward
Does it matter when there's men in power

Men in Power
They've got an iron grip
This battles done before it starts
You better call it quits
You better learn to be complacent at your nine to five
Kneel down before the hand that feeds until the day you die
Don't try to question how the system works
You're out of line
And if they want you or your body
Then your theirs to grind
Men in Power
They've got an iron grip
This battles done before it starts
You better call it quits
