[intro, Pledge of Allegiance excerpt (sample)]
In a nation under God
Indivisible
With liberty
And justice for all

[Lou Koller]
Yeah
The question they keep asking me
How can one so young be so bitter and angry?
Well, the answer is plain to see
Maybe if they weren't so blind they'd see what I see
I see the homeless livin' out on the street
On every corner they're asking for money
I try to help them whenever I can
But sometimes I can't afford to help myself
I see diseases and modern plagues of our times
The greed of our leaders has made them blind
To our problems, they spend millions overseas
People right here are fightin' wars everyday

I see the whites that hate the blacks
Blacks against the jews (why?), race against religion
And they're all too blind to see

[Everlast]
I saw the homeless man beggin'
He's got half a leg and
He used to be a soldier
The sign that he's holdin'
Says "times are hard"
Can you please kick me down
Before you turn your back
Just take a look around
[Lou Koller]
When we fight each other it puts all of them at ease
It keeps us so busy, so they can do what they please
Election time comes and they're out for votes
That's when you see and hear from them the most
This is what they're calling a "democracy"
That's just another word for hypocrisy
We keep fallin' for the bait
And when we realize, it's always too late

I see the whites that hate the blacks
Blacks that hate the jews, brother against brother
And they're all too blind to see
Too blind

Why don't you
Open up your eyes, so you can see
Open up your ears, so you can hear
(repeated)

As the rich get richer, the poor goin' hungry
I've seen the toll it takes on the workingman's family
Education system that's obsolete
Can't hold a kid's interest or keep 'em off the street
See a father's fear, hear a mother's cry
What kind of a nation lets their children die?
Government's corrupt and full of red tape
Then you're gonna ask me why I hate
[Lou Koller with rhymes doubled by Everlast]
Why don't you
Open up your eyes, so you can see
Open up your ears, so you can hear
(repeated)
Take a look around and you will find
Take a look around and you will find out why

[outro: Everlast]
Cause I'm sick of it all
Yeah, I'm sick of it all
You know I'm sick of it all
