Blind Moles by The Palmer Squares Lyrics
[Verse 1: Acumental]
Why's everybody got they eyes all shifty?
Why they wanna take Ulysses off the fifty?
Why print false facts and give them to teachers?
Cause they don't want a generation full of critical thinkers
Well I think somebody's bending the rules
Somebody's keeping drugs in penitentiaries and elementary schools
All I see are inept cultures
Pro lifers raising live babies just so they can turn them into dead soldiers
It gets colder
We need a true savior
Goddamn, if only I could be a news anchor
Nah, they're fearin' you'll hear this conspiracy theorist
Cause Acumental be the pioneer of awareness
As long as all my riches are rags
You'll see me slippin' through cracks
Spittin' the facts until the system collapse
When I'm told to lead, follow, or get out of the way
I obstruct and stand my ground everyday
Yo, is this the land of plenty or the land of plenty of sorrow?
Not a dollar to your name, on your knees begging to borrow
Like there's no tomorrow and shit, maybe their won't be
Apocalypse now
Somebody save me please
Cause we don't have freedom of choice, we have owners
And when we try to feed 'em our voice, they act deaf
So I'mma keep bringing the noise in fat doses
Just because I need to enjoy my last breath
[Verse 2: Terminal Knowledge]
Pipe down y'all
I know it might sound wrong
But I'd wipe my ass with the flag
After I shit on the white house lawn
Women and children in the shadow of an enemy plane
The brutality forever remains
Ready for war and the casualties inevitably came
Your cavalry will never be the same
Once they tread through the terrain where the bodies lie
Proud to die for a cause
Dollar signs and a hydrogen bomb
Maintain dominance
Gotta trade products and gotta stay profiting
Split atoms could erase continents
Engage in war
Strippin' leaves off of trees with the agent orange
Babies born with their face deformed
Now this ain't about your swag on the mic
It's about corporations putting price tags on your life
Whether they hook ya with a left
Or a jab from the right
We'll have a battle to fight until the planet ignites
[Verse 3: Terminal Knowledge]
How does a patriot act?
He bugs out with wires and phone taps
Prescribes me to Prozac to make me relax
Instead of legalizing cannabis
The streets are lined with cameras
My big brother always got them eagle eye advantages
Draft dodgers and cash mongers
Bible quoters and rifle toters
Who took a country from its rightful owners: blood for land
Behind bars for a couple grams?
Nobody burns more trees than my uncle Sam!
Burn it all to ash for absurd amounts of cash
Blackwater contract killers murder by the pack
From the trenches to the camel's back they're holdin' heat
While overseas keeping you distracted with the scandal rags
Shit that's what the economy's for
We ain't raping Mother Earth, she's probably a whore
And you ain't nothin' more than cannon fodder for the war
Or the brain-dead consumer buying products at the store
These ignorant minds runnin' free
We need to sit 'em on their bottoms
So I could spit 'em all some knowledge
There's criminals in Congress
A cesspool of big amounts of dollars
And jet fuel ain't bringing down no towers
So sit back and let the bodies pile up
CIA gave the people crack to fund the Nicaraguan Contras
Think about the outcomes
Consider this the downfall
I'll meet you at the town hall to bitch about our problems
[Verse 4: Acumental]
Because the Board of Ed. in Texas neglects to fill their text with truth
Mislead youth is what were left with
Deceptive
Liars not to be trusted
You can try to justify it but it's got me disgusted
They hide our own history from us
Who writes these books?
And who determines what they get to encompass?
If I had one wish it would consist of a request
For them to publish something with substance
Or is that too much I'm askin' of the academic faculty
To wise up and trample the mendacity?
It has to be, they'll keep the facts underground
Until the day they fuck around and turn our past into a fantasy
Shit, I grew up with 9 planets in the galaxy
But stage a debate and they can change it to 8
Yo, you might be taking the bait
But I'll tell you right now
I wouldn't read a fucking page for a grade
Why's everybody got they eyes all shifty?
Why they wanna take Ulysses off the fifty?
Why print false facts and give them to teachers?
Cause they don't want a generation full of critical thinkers
Well I think somebody's bending the rules
Somebody's keeping drugs in penitentiaries and elementary schools
All I see are inept cultures
Pro lifers raising live babies just so they can turn them into dead soldiers
