Liam Carse - We've Got to Get Free (Bonus Track)

Soakin' leaves run through the streets, cloggin' sewers and floodin' streams
Think I heard a child scream. Has He fin'ly begun our reckoning
'Cause you know we, the human race, only ever seem to top our last disgrace
We got foreign children locked up and caged. Tell me again what makes America the great
Oh, we can't ignore this internal war
We've got to get free

I watch the pavement stretch at the seams and reevaluate my religious beliefs
Whole generations bein' pulled down the drain while the world around me moves onward at a radical pace
Then my guitar gets ripped right from my grip; a harsh goodbye to my Mexican counterfeit
And when it's all over, nothing can be saved. Not your new car or even your own corpse is safe
It's a short, short life. Buckle in and sit tight
It's time to get free

But we can't do it alone
Gotta team up to rebuild our collective home
Though often times it's a plague
Governance can be useful when a big mess has been made
And a big mess has been made

Can't stand our horse-blinded populace takin' turn the other cheek a little farther than He meant
Why do we act like every area's grey, like human rights are some bipartisan thing to debate
Wake up now people! Oh, can't you see? Half the nation's been brainwashed by the bourgeoisie
All the silk-haired women on your plasma screen feed you bullshit and ya eat it happily
Oh, we can't ignore how we're molded by the lure
Seek the truth and be free

'Cause we've got
Oh, we've got
We've got to get free
