Refused
This Is The New Deal E.P.
Foundation of a nation build on fucking lies
Another welfare state tumbles and dies
System of oppression in the land of the free
Your equality and freedom means nothing to me
The rich pulls the strings of the politicians
To the voice of the poeple no-one is really listening
I thought it was called democraty
I don't think you know what the word means
Hate breeds hate
Hate breeds hate, breeds hate, breeds hate
People going crazy hunting their goals
Struggling to the top without any control
I see the green illusion developing greed
Overcoming common sense and what we really need
Diseases spreading all across the land
Crack kills so does guns in their hands
American interference in yet another war
Do the public know what the fuck for?
Hate breeds hate
Hate
You say the problems don't concern you
Well, wake the fuck up cause they really do
How many ways are society going to fuck it up?
How many lies until we had enough?
We gotta start to care about the consequences
Take a look around, it doesn't make any sense
Pollution, oppression, violence and destruction
Lies, deceit, poverty and corruption
Our ignorance has made us blind
To the problems that we are facing
Our indifference, our tolerance
Makes me sick
Our ignorance has made us blind
To the problems that we are facing
Our indifference, our tolerance
Makes me sick
Our ignorance has made us blind
To the problems that we are facing
Our indifference, our tolerance
Makes me fucking sick
Indoctrinate lies
Covering our eyes
Mold us into the mainstream
Taking our lives
We've gotta break these chains
We've gotta break these chains
We've gotta break these chains
Our ignorance has made us blind
To the problems that we are facing
Our indifference, our tolerance
Makes me sick
Our ignorance has made us blind
To the problems that we are facing
Our indifference, our tolerance
Makes me fucking sick
Look at the differences we've created
Marked, branded thought to be hated
Biological differences can't imply violence
But mindless and indoctrination can
Values maintained and held through time
Force fed upon our weak minds
Yesterday's segregation is still a truth
Equal values, no way
You say that thing are different -
No, no it's still the same
You say that thing are different -
Some things dont ever fucking change
Some say we have an equal society
No, no it's not the way I see
When people are oppressed for their sexuality
And AIDS is still a "gay" disease
When women don't have the right to choose
Cause it's against church morality
Then how can we say
How can we claim
That we have equality?
You say that thing are different -
No, no it's still the same
You say that thing are different -
Some things dont ever fucking change
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Where's equality?
Too much degradation - I'm going to tell the truth
I'm going to spit it out - bring it out - twist the chords
Too much bullshit inflicted - too many stories told
I'm so fed up with lies - I'm just so fed up - no more
I'm not going soft like you
I'm not going soft like you
I'm not going soft like you
I'm not going soft like you
Too much pressure taken - you've lost the cause
You lost your self-esteem - your conscious mind
I'm still in touch with reality - I'm still going to fight
I'm infrangible - I am still here
I'm still here - I'm still hard
I'm still here - but you've gone soft
You've gone soft, you've gone soft
You've gone soft, you've gone soft
The EDGE hasn't gone dull
The EDGE hasn't gone dull
The EDGE hasn't gone dull
The EDGE hasn't gone dull
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
I wish that I, I wish that I, I wish that I - could pick myself up
Trapped imprisoned, I know no other way to be
No matter how hard I try I'm never going to be really free
Surrounded by lies, try to hold my integrity
Searching for a higher goal, trying to find the real me
I wish that I, I wish that I
Could change my values and ignore the hate inside
I wish that I, I wish that I
Could put the pieces back and make another try
I wish that I, I wish that I
Could change my values and ignore the hate inside
I wish that I, I wish that I
Could put the pieces back and make another try
Being dragged down in this ocean of fools
Their golden horse god, obey the master, money rules
Try ro reach the surface but my emotions drag me down
I can't control myself, my rage makes me drown
I wish that I, I wish that I -
Could change my values and ignore the hate inside
I wish that I, I wish that I -
Could put the pieces back and make another try
I wish that I, I wish that I -
Could change my values and ignore the hate inside
I wish that I, I wish that I -
Could put the pieces back and make another try
I try, I try, I try to look beyond the whole
It's time to realize there's gotta be something more
In acts of selfishness we tend to ignore
What we really are living for
D.R.S.S. by Afro Jetz
Skatting down on my Suicidal skate
Down to the town the pigs await
They'll never catch me I'm too cool
Make them look like stupid fools
Dirty rotten skate society
Dirty rotten skate society
Dirty rotten skate society
Dirty rotten skate society
