[Intro]
One and two and...

[Verse 1]
The lake of dead black children that America created is getting fuller than the Founding Fathers even wanted
The ghost of great America was underestimated
And now it rages like a cold sore on the lip of this dumb nation

[Refrain]
Again, we've slipped inside a pit of absolute despair, that's where we live

[Verse 2]
I used to comfort myself with the myth of good intention
I can't believe that I believed that goodness was inherent
The liars lying constantly, post-truth, post-everything
Some denied humanity, and most at least fucked over
My leaders led by nothing-men, dick-first into oblivion
The civil war didn't just begin, they've been blowing us to pieces
Rewarding our worst cruelty, they destroyed our shared reality
And now they upsell us our dignity like some fucked V.I.P. package

[Refrain]
Again, we've slipped inside a pit of absolute despair, that's where we live
Now
Again, we've slipped inside a pit of absolute despair, that's where we live
Until we don't
[Outro]
No justice, no peace, no hope
