Could it be
That you don’t even hear me
Probably
Cuz you’re not even near me
And with your guns and your bombs
Yeah, you probably won’t ever fear me
You’ll just have another doctor put a pill in my mouth
And say he cured me
Well I see
The crown you put on your own head
And I feel
Like I’m losing my own head
For every one of you
There’s twenty mother fuckers who are strugglin’ to be fed
While you’re flippin’ through the pages of your paperbacks on porches
We wind up dead
Well I looked at my self in the mirror the other day
And I realized to myself what I needed to say
That when I look into a mirror all I ever see is my own reflection
Would you cut off your own arm to get a doctor’s vote and win an election
Could it be
That you won’t be so selfish
Will there come a day
When you’ll act somewhat selfless
I’m not religious
But I pray that something happens in your own mind to change this
Not just your money’s gonna save you
