Mr. Government K-Odd-ik Solo by The Depressed Duo Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
As Mr. Government sits in his crooked throne
A burglar's barging through the door of your home
You're scared, you're alone, so you reach for the chrome
But the right to bare arms is gone, grab the phone
Real quick, dial 9-1-1, you're nervous
But you're fucked, you're local area don't get much service
See now you basically know you're a goner
They're still breaking down the door so you cower in the corner
But you gave your gun on behalf of the government's word
But the burglar's didn't pay homage to the government's work
So they're strapped, and all you've got is a baseball bat
One of them's got a .9 and the other has a Mac'
You're sort of armed but a bat really ain't no match
You snap as you hear the door break from the latch
They break open the door, see you on the floor
And put a piece of brass in the top of your gourd
[Hook:]
Give me liberty or give me death
Unveil the truth from your poisonous breath
You're protecting us, oh please give it a rest
You're killing us daily from you're decadent desk
And please give me back my rights I'm losin'
You know the ones that were written in the constitution
They're responsible for population pollution
We need to pick ourselves up before it's to late to do it
[Verse 2:]
Taking our rights really won't do a lot of good
Look at all the people in the so called 'hood
I thought they already took away the damn drug right
But hundreds of thousands are selling crack every night
Only it's illegal now and way more dangerous
You screw-over a payment, your brains on the pavement
Or they creep around your families house while it's rainin'
With no guns to defend themselves from these gangsters
Now you're thinking "No guns, how'd the gangsters get 'em then?"
What you think gangsters are law-abiding citizens?
Mr. Government knocked, but they didn't give up the guns
Whilst you were sucked into the government sponge
Can't you see they're gonna tear us down
Mr. Government's a corrupt king with horns for a crown
Will they kill us all, who can be sure?
I'll die to speak against it like my idol 2Pac Shakur
[Hook]
[Verse 3:]
Every war we fought we were in it for the money
You think Mr. G wouldn't lie, you're fucking funny
Defend ourselves from the enemy constricting
Then let 'em over the border, that's contradicting
Let ISIS over the border with high powered automatics
Oh and why don't you take away our guns while you're at it
Are we all FUCKING STUPID! Look around you
The government created everything that surrounds you
They're the new God - listen to 2Pac
Don't matter who you vote for the terrorist wins, you watch
You put a bunch of guards around Mr. G's city banks
Then you put a 'Gun Free Zone' sign outside my school, thanks!
Thanks for all the protection you've provided
Mr. Government is selfish, slimy and one-sided
I'll think of you when my school gets slaughtered
Explain to that loving mother why she lost her daughter
[Hook]
[Outro]
If I don't live past this song's release date...
I guess you know what happened to me
Ha ha, Mr. G snatched my ass
Probably killed me, corrupted me
Or something.. ha ha
