Fallen Nation lyrics

Another simple mindWorking 9 to 5Seven days a weekBarely making ends meetWorking paycheck to paycheckJust to pay the rentMoney savedIs already money spentFacing a fallen nationWhere poverty is on the riseViolence and racial hatredMake way to a million liesToo many kids are slayedTo lie in early gravesPut down by gun shotsAnd outlined in white chalkThe nation turns its backAnd it don't seeThey're wiping awayAll their bad memoriesFacing a fallen nationWhere poverty is on the riseViolence and racial hatredMake way to a million liesAnother battered momAnd we let this go onWhen will seeSomething is very wrong?But we close our eyesAnd we all pretendThat somehow all of thisAll of this will just endFacing a fallen nationWhere poverty is on the riseViolence and racial hatredMake way to a million lies
