Restless Lyrics

You can cause a civil war by simply not caring,
how quickly glass houses shatter with screams blaring
from all, walks of life, make decisions more delicate
than a victim looking for revenge against their government,
half the reason i selected this stance,
is the way inside my rib cage the drums makes me dance
advanced passed self doubt to blind curiosity,
cause in the womb i studied martin luthers philosphy,
so i started off positive and came out swinging,
fighting silent derogitive logic determined on winning,
over and over, we watch the world choose justice,
by picking college over strapping bombs to our esophagus,
to find release and please god, doesn't always agree,
no matter what you sacrifice, it's either price or penalty,
remember me for example not or wisdom or advice,
i do my best to hold it down, but can't always avoid flight,

we're restless, we need a reason to fight
ready on the left.....ready on the right
politics was your idea, do something with your invention,
truth isn't a myth, it's your only protection
don't just sit back and watch it burn,
don't just sit back and watch it burn,

the respect is only given when respect is earned because
you must learn...

I catch the eyes of strangers, who dig on exhaustion,
and what's it's costing,
my body to stand up straight,we bait,
the hook with attractive adjectives and invites,
with the perfect balance of war pigs and rappers delight,
I want commentary and debates for democracies sake,
not because the bandwagon hates authorities face,
on t-shirts and bumper stickers, ignorance is gloating,
since when did 4 letters words help get people voting,
we jump in between topics because it's all related,
and i want all my bases covered when i get interrogated,
by critics and loyal supporters, of more than, this,
by cynics and reporters on fear and loathing and mis
judgment, study what hunter had on the agenda
stuck in a world of pseudo jesus's and devilish pretenders,
neither one is helping us set freedom straight,
but i have my finger on the pulse and waiting for the target heart rate.

we're restless, we need a reason to fight
ready on the left.....ready on the right
politics was your idea, do something with your invention,
truth isn't a myth, it's your only protection
don't just sit back and watch it burn,
don't just sit back and watch it burn,

the respect is only given when respect is earned because
you must learn...

Be afraid of the dark, be worried about the draft,
be scared about the threats that may come to pass,
be nervous about your rent, be wary of the strange,
but don't worry about our leaders, you've got no right to complain,
the world's a safer place, but the war has just begun,
the strategy is backwards like how raw wounds become,
anxiety, chasing us, always be prepared,
but rest easy that the president and god are the invincible pair,
that's not paranoia, it's listenening carefully,
they want your passion, you're savings, devoted humanity
WAKE UP
i was raised on alarm clocks and sirens,
so now to rebel i blow speakers with death to tyrants,
it's my obligation to a nation that's raised me to choose,
is the strength in my voice and the ego's i can bruise,
for faith i'll taste bullets, for love i'll lose my shape,
but for freedom i'll give myself whatever it takes.

we're restless, we need a reason to fight
ready on the left.....ready on the right
politics was your idea, do something with your invention,
truth isn't a myth, it's your only protection
don't just sit back and watch it burn,
don't just sit back and watch it burn,

the respect is only given when respect is earned because
you must learn...
