The government, their not helping no one out, except for the rich people
There's a lot of wealth in this city
And that's who the government is looking out for
Dem people up there, yeah
Like they're not thinking of us, there thinking about that one pocket, that's up there
In the city there's a real focus on celebrity and money and materialism
To tell the truth I can't stand this place
It's getting harder every day to put the smile upon my face (I know)
I can't keep up with all the lies it creates and it might have it in the name, but trust, there ain't nothing great
It makes me violent
So violent
But please, please no violence
No violence
Woo, no violence today
Put your weapons away
I often feel my life is clutched in its claws
Looking for reasons it should love me, feel I'm clutching at straws (The fucking)
You turn your nose up and don't fight for my cause
They're okay, cool, but some day soon there'll be no one to fight for yours
It makes me violent
So violent
But please, please no violence
No violence
It's hard to see when you've been wrapped in its spell
Where it tries to break what doesn't fit or leave it trapped in a cell (I've seen it)
Look at the beast, it wants me gone, I can tell
I've thought about it, but for now I'd rather stay and give them hell
It makes me violent
So violent
But please, please no violence
Is what they've always given me
Someone's always telling me
Just calm down and let it be
It makes me violent (It makes someone I don't wanna be)
So violent (Driving some place I don't want to be)
But please, please no violence
Yeah, it's what they've always given me
Someone's always telling me
Just calm down and let it be
