lyrics

Vote for Hillary/
Vote for Bernie/
Shit, vote for Trump/
It don’t concern me/
The main contenders/
A hawkish Senator left of center/
Friend to big spenders/
Neo-con agenda/
But less of an adventure/
Than Trump I’d venture/
Bernie needs denchers/
Trump’s head looks like a fucking basketball/
From Spalding/
A wall is what we all need!/
Not infrastructure, not trains!/
Not a raise on the minimum wage!/
The Earth is in turmoil/
We keep losing soil/
Don’t spoil the oil/
Attack those that aren’t loyal/
Iran can’t be rowdy/
Free reign to the Saudis/
Black guy in an Audi/
Cops drop him like Rousey/
But if he’s white/
It’s alright/
A bank funds cartel/
We don’t indict/
Regardless of Election Night/
We should be frightened/

You’re deranged or insane/
If you think anything will change/
A new name to blame/
It’ll stay the same/
They’re chained to banks/
Christ’s sake/
Use your brain/
Max out at an eight-year reign/
Murdoch’s 85, ain’t goin away/
Koch Brothers always willing to pay/
Fuck your worth/
60 more years of Mark Zuckerberg/
I get it, it’s Cali, they’re liberal dudes/
But why Facebook only show liberal news?/
And Google too, sad but true/
Some concede because it meets their beliefs/
It’s a sad dichotomy/
Brainwashing’s fine if its your ideology/


Verse 2

Brock Turner and that damn gorilla/
More coverage than the thrilla in the Manilla/
Go to Facebook, all the opinions vanilla/
Choose one side, no other options considered/
There’s a problem, but I’m not part of it!/
Sentiments from Congress to Parliament/
Police policies cause stress so blacks smoke Parliaments/
Gamin’ On Ya like Parliament/
Clean up neighborhoods like vultures/
Sacrifice culture for safety/
Areas ruined by crack in the eighties/
Gentrify is a nice way to say things/
Like yoga and coffee shops displacing/
The fates of all the races they hate, Wait/

If it’s a problem, I play a big part/
Me and my white roommates live in Wicker Park/
We didn’t wanna live in that iffy part/
By Humboldt Park, contrast was stark/
Two blocks away is like Little San Juan/
Don’t wanna ever say, “Man run!”/
Why’d everyone say, “Rahm run!”/
Cuz of Obama? Should be a goner/
16 shots on Laquon McDonald/
A murder ring caught on video/
Told Burger King, delete the video/
More repeats of Chi city’s shit show/
Shuttling shame by the shores of skid row/
Kids know, I kick flows in droves/
What a tangled web I wove/
The dang ‘ol web is how I know/
Goes to show any Joe Schmo/
Can go from so-so to informed/
Like Varys for Danaerys/
Stormborn, the Unburnt/
Forlorn future for the unlearnt/
Uncertain for certain cuz you can never be sure/
And I know that for sure
