The Politics of Starving

[Verse 1]
It's time for some real world politics
Economics, history, math and English
Born and raised and bred walking a thin line
Between lost and succeeding and don't ever care about
The rules aren't changing it if you really tell it like it is
Threats always been there, terror always happens

[Chorus]
For all the fights, for all the songs, all we said
All we have is these pictures of us
If it doesn't matter now then it never really did
And without this we might as well be dead

[Verse 2]
They're all black and white people
And that doesn't have anything to do with us
After all these years it's still an arms race
After all these years they still don't fucking get it
Lives and cultures matter more than capitalist interest
It's the FBI; it's the CIA; it's the ATF, the IMF, NBC, CBS. Fuck you

[Chorus]
For all the fights, for all the songs, all we said
All we have is these pictures of us
If it doesn't matter now then it never really did
And without this we might as well be dead

[Verse 3]
When you are so hungry that you'd believe anything
Well they're selling you the politics of starving
And what the fuck does that really mean to us?
