You claim that you’re the champion
Without a shred of proof
Say you’re an astronaut
While standing on the roof
You pretend it didn’t happen
While cutting down the noose
Speak the language of the coward
And think that you are brave
Try to sell that you are born again
But you’ve done nothing to be saved
You sing this land is my land
While covering up the graves
In the name of freedom
Children get gunned down
In the name of money
The poison seeps into the ground
In the name of righteousness
The lies come fast and mean
In the name of truth
You want to wash our history clean
In the name of freedom
You deny what we have learned
In the name of money
The world begins to burn
In the name of righteousness
You turn your back on those in need
In the name of truth
You see what you want to see
Claim that you’re the victim
While you’re out there swinging the club
Raising up the peace sign
While you rile up the mob
You haven’t killed our principles
You’re just here to finish the job
Say you’re a man of the people
But the power’s all for you
And if it wasn’t for the other guy
Everybody’d get theirs too
If you tell the big lie long enough
Will you believe it too?
Tell the truth
