the wolf lyrics
[verse 1]
everyday i wake up in a nightmare
am i sleeping, dreaming this demon i’m seeing right there
i’m speeding on an emotional roller coaster
i’m t~~tering closer to rolling into the deepest leagues of the ocean
cause our species is broken
every week i’m like, what the h~ll am i smoking?
weed toking has these blokes in the pokey
instead of the ceo and his obscene bonus
they putting the onus on the weakest and most vulnerable
’til life’s so intolerable
and you won’t even lob them a bone
but then you make voting impossible though
holding the impoverished hostage dangling the consequences
of not going to college, like a scholarship’s gonna abolish them from the lopsided contest you got ’em in it’s mind boggling
but god forbid, your dollar given got a kid a doctors visit
not a rocket, helicopter, bomb to k!ll a kamikaze’s daughter
not to stop a founding father’s god given prerogative
to lock and load assault weapons
dropping kids in lockers
hemoglobin clot the conscience of a gun lobby pocketed congressman
on their hill just watching this
while the king sits on top and grins
kiss the ring if your pockets big
as they cattle prod the sheep to the slaughtering
[chorus]
you do what you do
we gon’ see right through
we gon’ see right through, oh
you put on your wool
who you tryin’ to fool?
we can see the blood pool, oh

[verse 2]
so tell me again how in this day and age
are we even gonna make an infinitesimal change?
we’re paying the wages of ancient caucasians
who haven’t done a thing for several decades
then campaign, then champagne
that’s when they prey on their electorates’ pain
then they wait for their personal investments to gain
after bailing out the friends they invested in (hey!)
hate the player don’t you dare hate the game
is the way that they make you complacent today
make you ok with the racism, hatred of g~ys
absence of rage when they k!llin’ in the name of
freedom, yea let’s talk about freedom
and how greedy we’ve become
for the slop that we feed from
here’s the edict of our capitalist kingdom
one
freedom of speech
unless you agree with impeachment or deviate
from the right wing media conglomerate
or your skin isn’t white and you congregate
two
freedom of religious belief
as long as jesus is livin’ in your creed
and the separation of administration and preaching
is cool if you look like a terrorist to me
three
is the freedom to be yourself
as long as you do it with stealth
cause a transgender living in the bible belt cannot be d~mned when they’re already living in h~ll
four
is the freedom to love
if it’s a straight person that was sent to you from above
and you aren’t a villainous immigrant making a living
cause we’ll take and imprison your babies evict you and shrug
five
is the freedom of health
but egregious wealth is a prerequisite of medical help
and the dilemma for the rest of us is death or debt
so an astrazeneca exec gets a jet for himself
six
is the freedom to vote
if you’re able to take a break from work to go
is it too much to ask for a holiday though?
yup, cause they gotta keep turnout low
seven
is the right to a fair trial
if you’re fair skinned, and you’ve got a good lawyer on dial
cause the fairly wealthy can afford the fare so the courts will care and expunge their errant criminal file
eight
is a livable wage
unadjusted for inflation
so basically a waitress doing labor at three places
is scr~ping together paper to pay for a studio apartment her and her kids stay in
nine
is the freedom to fight in their wars
defense contractors blood thirsty for more
cause we want oil
so we can rip a hole in the ozone and make the planet warmer
which brings us to ten
you’ve been so brave
it’s your freedom to lie in a grave
cause what the h~ll does the master care
if he loses a couple of slaves?
yea we act like we’re free
dumb’s more like it if you would ask me
how i perceive society divided undeniably by violence and piety
and neo~n~z~s are rioting, while black people are dying for smiling and both sides of the aisle are fine beings
and look i’m just a guy with the finer things
and i don’t have the right to opine or sing
when my whiteness is why i feel enlightenment when i spit
or should i say entitlement when i spit
cause i sympathize with all of this sh~t
even though i can’t empathize with this sh~t
but if you care to listen to my opinion
it’s whiteness that got us into this sh~t
my opinion is the government exists to enrich and uplift citizens
living in the most discriminate situations
indifference and ignorance are different
and isn’t it a bit of a coincidence the littlest of influence
is given to the most oppressed, the most distressed
the most detested
most likely to be choked to death
by po~po who was sworn to uphold and protect
maybe it’s just hopelessness
all i know is this
they don’t have to wear a white cloak out in the openness
they’re hoping you don’t notice it
so when the sheep comes knocking at your door, don’t open it
don’t open it (nah)
[chorus]
you do what you do
we gon’ see right through
we gon’ see right through, oh
you put on your wool
who you tryin’ to fool?
we can see the blood pool, oh
you do what you do
we gon’ see right through
we gon’ see right through, oh
you put on your wool
who you tryin’ to fool?
we can see the blood pool, oh
