Whatever When
Whatever when you look to a lie
to salvage what started as a good day
When the storm takes over the blue sky
When the cost is a friend lost but you must pay
Whatever when you take advantage of kindness
Look someone right in the eye
The best person you ever met your banking on his blindness
So you take what they would of given and think you were sly
Whatever when you conform to the.world of today
Simple minded short attention span easily guided
Even the smartest of us were formed the same way
So we have to import people to get new ideas there rules in the box and to them we given and our life was provided not to chase the American dream but to grow the corporate country and so we must be kept divided
Whatever when you believe to much in conspiracy
We are not good at keeping secrets
As a species we have to threaten death for high treason
Our promote illiteracy keeping secrets through idiocracy
Whatever when all the times you spent working for all that's good
Only to succeed and have it taken in a breath
Thru some new corporate loop hole created by senators who wete elected to protect you
But now corporations are people and money free speech
You representative can choose what to hear and justify
Just hearing the voice that makes his bank account climb
Whatever when real love is looked down on
When trends and looks and fear of others judgements
Renders those who would be loved alone
Because their better half is in the popular crowd and get risk letting their friends down and they don't want to be cause of their parents arguments
Whatever when its to much for young mind to comprehend
And the thing thsts been normalized is death God is waiting and mom and dad will eventually come and I can go and not be made fun of
Whatever when we can't willingly give up his toy
on a twisted view of a freedom exploited
And for that idea we are ready to fight our own and wrap our self in the flag and our righteous cause
I guess you can say your closer to God cause your willing to send your only begotten son to die
When will you learn most folks carry a gun in a free country
Because there scared if confrontation or have low vocabulary while in the jungle a 10 year old takes an a.r from his dead fathers hands shoots the guy raping his mom and the one trying to take his 6 year old sister you want one to carry to wild wings to protect your self in q safe land
