Lyrics
We are born into a time of innocent Americans
Attacked for trying to job while some Bin Laden motherfucker
Takes the credit, but instead of heading to Afghanistan
To take him out they went to bomb Iraq and kill some families
Children die because of some imaginary weapons and
To find one of the many, many terrorists upon the planet
Meanwhile the psychopaths accountable for killing every
Innocent are both sitting safely out of range
Armageddon orchestrated, televised and exaggerated
We were lied to and we won't get fooled again
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
We are, we are the only ones left
We're the dog you beat down once too much
We're the cornered rat that will fight back
We are born into a time our population is divided
Poor and hungry people share the planet with the wealthy and
The multi-billion industries pay politicians, actors and
Musicians more than it would take to shelter all the homeless, and
The governments ignore the underfunding of researching into
Mental health, allowing over 70% of people
Undereducated while the suicides per annum keep
Increasing and the narcotics keep the treated pacified
Fame and fortune un-donated by the overpaid and the overrated
We were lied to and we won't get fooled again
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
We are, we are the only ones left
We're the dog you beat down once too much
We're the cornered rat that will fight back
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
We are, we are the only ones left
We're the dog you beat down once too much
We're the cornered rat that will fight back
This virus breeds inside your system
Armageddon orchestrated, televised and exaggerated
We were lied to and we won't get fooled again
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
We are, we are the only ones left
We're the dog you beat down once too much
We're the cornered rat that will fight back
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
We are, we are the only ones left
We're the dog you beat down once too much
We're the cornered rat that will fight back
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
We are, we are the only ones left
We're the dog you beat down once too much
We're the cornered rat that will fight back
This virus breeds inside your system
Attacked for trying to job while some Bin Laden motherfucker
Takes the credit, but instead of heading to Afghanistan
To take him out they went to bomb Iraq and kill some families
Children die because of some imaginary weapons and
To find one of the many, many terrorists upon the planet
Meanwhile the psychopaths accountable for killing every
Innocent are both sitting safely out of range
Armageddon orchestrated, televised and exaggerated
We were lied to and we won't get fooled again
We are, we are, we are the new flesh
