Fragmented existence
Living in an impoverished world

Floating in a river of blood
Amidst terrorist confusion

Losing my brothers and sisters
To our government's killing hands

When we going to wise up to their plans
When we going to rise up against the man

Isolated existence
Living in a segregated world

Floating in a river of racism
Amidst flag waving patriotism

Separated from my brothers and sisters
By our government's divisive hands

When we going to wise up to their plans
When we going to rise up against the man

Repressed existence
Living in a suppressed world

Floating in a river of fascism
Amidst dictatorial oppression

Spying on brothers and sisters
For our government's iron hands

When we going to wise up to their plans
When we going to rise up against the man

Severed existence
Living in a mutilated world

Floating in a river of malformation
Amidst pharmaceutical testing

My brothers and sisters are guinea pigs
Under the guise of our government's hands

When we going to wise up to their plans
When we going to rise up against the man

Detached existence
Living in a fractured world

Floating in a river of desecration
Amidst broken souls

So many exploited brothers and sisters
Abused by our government's closed-fisted hands

When we going to wise up to their plans
When we going to rise up against the man
