Everything that made you great only made you bad

I know that you had big dreams 
         G/B       C 
That you had big plans

Won't make a free land 



            Am 
You got a white picket fence and your dad's got a gun

You got a job, and a car, and a good dental plan

Am 
Fuckеd with the food chain 
                G/B      C 
Fucked with the farming too 
                         G

                   E ( E  F  G  E ) 
Like it's meant to do 



              Am 
They've got blood on their hands 

'Cause they stole all the land 
    G/B      C 
And all the lies they're here to raise 
Made them feel like a man 
              Dm7 
Who gave you jazz, hip-hop, rock and roll, and the blues? 
           E                  
No matter what, the story's catching up on you
