Lyrics
Shhh, be quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like me motherfucker you've been at it for too long
While you feed off others' insecurities
You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds
Self-righteousness is wearing thin (lies inside your head, your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow man (broken glass, your fake reflection)
I've had enough, it's time for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking, gone too far, a clone
So how does it feel to know that someone's kid
In the heart of America has blood on their hands
Fighting to defend your rights, so you can maintain a lifestyle
That insults his family's existence, well, where I'm from we have a special
Salute that we aim high in the air, towards all those pointless assholes
Who spend their days pointing fingers (fuck you)
Shhh, be quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long
I'll be damned if you count me in as part of your generous hypocrisy
Collecting enemies
Tabloid gossip queen worthless man (there's no need for us to bury you)
Selfish agenda once again (right this way you've dug your own grave)
I've had enough, it's time for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking, gone too far, a clone
All the way from the east to the west we got this high society
Locking down on their very foundation, constantly reminding us that our actions
Are the cause of all their problems, pointing their fingers in every direction
Blaming their own nation for who wins the elections
They've never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize
Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue depictions we see, try and get through
Admitting mistakes can hurt, I'm not the last but I sure ain't the first
Shhh, be quiet, you might piss somebody off
Self-righteous is wearing thin (lies inside your head your best friend)
Heart bleeds but not for fellow men (broken glass your fake reflection)
I've had enough, it's time for something real
Don't respect the words you're speaking, gone too far, a clone
