BackWordz - Self Ownership lyrics

[Intro] From the willfully ignorant the knowledge you won't get none But don't get it twisted I too was dumb and then some Support a politician, sit back and then twiddle his thumbs Not understanding that you have Stockholm Syndrome [Verse 1] They have no desire to save you It's not because the folks serving are not fit It's not because we don't have the right people in office It's not because a certain bracket is taxed a lot less It's more because y'all fools don't understand the process This is all just a game bro Y'all supported Bernie, that didn't work to well, did it though? Funneling millions to his campaign Swore he wasn't a crook until he endorsed the same thing Then you support the lesser of the evil fakers But it just repeats and we revisit this 4 years later The State itself is based on theft and can't be fixed So realize you own yourself & no one else [Chorus] Here we are again feeling stuck in this lie we're living Singing the same old song Are we wrong to break free from the chains we're in? They have no desire to save you [Verse 2] Of course you see, I do speak cordially not metaphorically I like to speak informally with honesty but horribly Y'all often like to appeal to all of the authority A step ahead of y'all that's the reason I brought my boy with me I know that promises of politicians are hollow so I know I'm better off ruling over myself no lie though, I know Will never rest until we all are free at last and every person will see that every person is free There is no half stepping. With peace, you need non-aggression Slavery's not the best and self ownership is what we're lacking Freedom will be the course no matter if you're reach or poor Self-defense is the only way that you should be using force And let me give a shout out to the people who only oppose government when it's convenient to You're like an edgy teenager who hates authority You'll stay in shackles so as long as you get a longer leash Liberty is not trendy It's an everyday thing to see that you're not a slave Let the people go and be free [Chorus] Here we are again feeling stuck in this lie we're living Singing the same old song Are we wrong to break free from the chains we're in? They have no desire to save you [Verse 3] Start making sense when you realize the lies I hate to say it, but your protesting is ill-advised You put your life into the hands of a bunch of silly guys It's a contradiction if freedom has to be legalized For example, when a cop's shooting a black man you focus on the racism, ignoring all the statism Holding signs, rioting is not about to save him Cause you must've forgot that that's the power that you gave them Criminal justice reform is a euphemism For a bunch of dumb, foolish slaves with Stockholm Syndrome Thinking they'll be held to the same standard, don't do it What so they can investigate themselves and find no wrongdoing? Bro, sit and think about this foolishness You hit the ballot box supporting fools that don't know you exist Warfare, healthcare, and your minimum wage Call it progressive man, but you're an obedient slave Dang [Chorus] Here we are again feeling stuck in this lie we're living Singing the same old song Are we wrong to break free from the chains we're in? They have no desire to save you
