Petroleum Distillation 15

I've been having a hard time trying to justify
The clouds arising from the cars we drive
And a little too easy seems just a little too hard today
I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world
Waste away
Waste away

Been having a hard time trying to accept the fact
That paying money for four walls leaves the slavery intact
And a little too easy seems just a little too hard today
I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world
Slip away
Slip away

And I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
Life has become slavery
I know, I know, I know, I know
Life has become slavery
I know, I know, I know, I know
Life has become slavery, slavery

Costs two dollars a minute and additional charges to pray to god
Today
See I've been looking for some guidance
But the voice on the phone ain't got a damn thing to say
And a little too easy seems just a little too hard today
I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world
Fade away
Fade away

I was born a little too late to see the dream that they called America
See I only want to be a free man
But it's against the law to sleep on the ground in God's land
And a little too easy seems just a little bit insane
I'm afraid I'm going to have to run for my life
One of these days
One of these days

And I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
Life has become slavery
I know, I know, I know, I know
Life has become slavery
I know, I know, I know, I know
Life has become slavery, slavery

The ground is my body, it's been poisoned with lead and junk food and toxic waste
The sky is my mind it's been clouded with cigarettes and fluorocarbons and petroleum distillates
The water's my heart, it's been broken with booze and drugs and shooting up paste
The sun is my spirit, it belongs to all of us
Well I guess we're all one sick race
Just one sick race

And autonomy shall reward itself with freedom
And humility shall reward itself with peace
And the dissolution of possession and the integration of humanity
Shall bring forth a sharing of our responsibility
For our lives
For our earth
For our lives
For our earth
