Question Everything

by This Side of Anarchy

/
1.
You have no privacy You can't go anywhere to be free Cameras everywhere They're watching you despair And you just don't care You're being watched No matter where you go You're being watched From above and below You're being watched It's the status quo You're being watched Don't you know there's no privacy There's nothing you do that I can't see Watch what you say online It'll be there for all time They're watching you everywhere And you just don't seem to care They're watching you up and down In and out, here and there They tell you that they're helping you And make you think it's really cool But then they know how you think Abusing your data really stinks They claim it's for security And say what it takes to deceive Is that what you call being free It doesn't sound like it to me We ignored warnings of 1984 They're spying at your door There's nowhere left to hide No matter how hard you have tried

Question authority Question everything And then question it again Question authority What happened to that belief Question Authority I learned that in 1960 Doesn't anyone ask why anymore? Mindlessly following along is what I abhor Question Everything That's the best place to begin Question Everything Avoid propaganda and media spin Question Authority It's been brainwashed out of you Question Authority They no longer teach in school Don't believe what you see on the news Corporate propaganda served up to you Question Everything And question yourself within Question Everything And then question again

There is no forgiveness anymore Watch out society will settle the score One mistake and you'll have me die I can't explain myself because you won't even let me try Don't you know there's No Forgiveness You apologize but they just don't care Don't you know there's No Forgiveness You say sorry it means nothing so don't even try No more humor allowed You may offend Guilty even though proven innocent Any evidence has been ignored You said something long ago Now it's wrong just because they said it's so Excoriated because of the past This no forgiveness cannot last It doesn't matter to them that your life's been destroyed We've gone back to pagan times Where they kill you for your crime Forgiveness is the way that will save the world There is no forgiveness left inside of you You don't care about anyone else that is why you're so cruel They want you to want the power so you won't be kind Sorry means mothing to you it won't even pacify So why don't you try forgiveness Try Forgiveness

Same old shit different day Sick and tired of the old same news Don't know what to do to get through Gonna do it somehow someway Same old shit but a different day Same thing different day Same old shit don't wanna play Getting out don't want to stay Same old shit different day Ready to hear some new bad news And feel the same old blues Everything is still in disarray Same old shit but a different day Same thing different day New year, don't wanna play Won't matter anyway Same old shit different day Feel like I wanna fade away Leave and go far away I've been lead astray I need a fuckin holiday Same old shit different day

Spewing lies to manipulate You think they report truth Corporation news They're manipulating you It's all lies - American Pravda It's in disguise - American Pravda Makes you blind - American Pravda Truth undermined - American Pravda The Communist News Network Their propaganda abounds Don't ever listen to them They lie with every sound If it's on the news you know it's a lie Question Everything give it a try They rush to judgement not checking the facts Regurgitating trash It's just a propaganda pit Don't you ever listen to it You can't trust anything they say It's all about money The Press is your god What they say isn't even true They have their agenda it's Money and not the truth

Apathy 02:43
Sure, the world is lame All you do is complain No one else to blame Because you won't do anything Apathy You’re filled with apathy Apathy You’re filled with apathy Because you just don't care And you don't want to feel despair You follow along You don't think that you're strong You don't have a mind of your own You don't feel you belong You've gotta change your mentality To get back your humanity You live in a world of fantasy Changing is not blasphemy Anyway the wind blows That's where you go There you go again If you don't fight they will win. The world isn't to blame For you being so lame You got to do more than complain Get off your ass and do something
