Millions of People by Tombstone Da Deadman Lyrics
[Intro]
Can't feel a thing, can't even feel pain. Somebody help me now. You just got to... got to tell me why
[Verse 1]
Ever start to feel like everything is broke with no hope
And the system put together is only hanging from a thin rope?
Losing confidence in all the folks that’s in authority
Whatever they decide you know your wishes aren’t priority
Well truthfully you ought to be... up in arms and ornery
'Bout people who consistently be fucking up economies
And love to point the fingers at the ones that’s most affected
Guess that’s why these days my inner thoughts are mostly disconnected
Who’s gonna take the blame this time? Who will be the boogey man?
The villain of the month; is it the president or Iran?
Who should I be angry at a rapper or his hype man?
Celebrities that says something stupid only to spite fans?
Is anything I’ve ever said going to make a difference
With lots of other rappers out there spewing only ignorance?
Fight for the people when the people don’t even give a shit?
Point out corruption only to watch them all continue it?
Fuck that
[Chorus]
Billions of people know just how I feel
[Verse 2]
Have you noticed every president gets labeled as an anti-christ?
You think the problem stops at them then you ain’t even thinking right
But that’s really the issue ain’t... how we formulate our thoughts
Too many times we let our tribalism tell us who’s at fault
Democrats, Republicans I think we’ve had enough of them
You think they really have the answers guess that’s why they always win
Cause everything they say is spin... manufactured talking points
No better than evangelist... liars stinking up the joint
Almost like you're worshiping at the feet of these scumbags
Spewing all their rhetoric until our minds are numb and
Check out how we give them these titles and tax dollars
That they shamelessly spending on wars while people live in squalor
They can’t even agree to get our infrastructure fixed
Fuck them all. In my opinion they can eat a bag of dicks
The system only works if the people get in the mix
But how the fuck we make that happen when people are nitwits?
[Chorus x 1]
[Outro]
You have become addicted to the illusion of what a hero is. You have become addicted to the illusion of what a hero does for you. You think you need someone to pat you on the back? You think you need someone to tuck you in to bed at night, kiss you on the cheek and tell you that everything is all right... Well everything, everything is not all right!
Can't feel a thing, can't even feel pain. Somebody help me now. You just got to... got to tell me why
[Verse 1]
Ever start to feel like everything is broke with no hope
And the system put together is only hanging from a thin rope?

'Bout people who consistently be fucking up economies
And love to point the fingers at the ones that’s most affected
