[Verse 1]
SNAKES! Slithering reptiles
Weak and wicked with the negative lifestyles
Double standard of society, biding in this place
To execute the whole damn race
The peoples feels how the government is run
I won’t turn the other cheek so you can beat the other one
Ya hung my brothers, and [?] your laws at
I say here’s a forty year setback
Forty acres and a mule is bull, yeah right
Give us death, brutality, ignorance, and a pipе
The right to fight anyone who ain’t white
And stop thе “be searched” when you feel like
But I guess there’s no cops shooting brothers on the subway
Howard Beach is killing brothers on the highway
[?]family beaten and raped, caught police brutality on video tape
[Refrain]
Snakes, Hey Hey, United (There is no hope)
Snakes, Hey Hey, United
Snakes, Hey Hey, United (There is no hope for white America)
Snakes, Hey Hey, United
Snakes, Hey Hey, United (There is no hope)
Snakes, Hey Hey, United
(There is no hope for white America)
Hey Hey Hey Hey, (There is no hope
There is no hope, for white America)
[Verse 2]
Excuse me officer, get you billie club off my head
My hands is up in the air, don’t fill me full of lead
Red and blue lights, [?] gun with a badge
That’s the only reason why I won’t kick your ass
In LA, they killed the muslim brother don't be alarmed
They posing a threat, but the brother wasn’t armed
While I'm driving, you harass and bother me
Don’t you know my taxes paying your salary?
Mad at me when I ask ‘Why was I stopped?’
Finish searching this car, it's back to the coffee shop
Black cop gets the rope stopped for the lynchin'
Only thinking about is his god damn paycheck
Bashin in doors, calling it a drug bust
Just another way ya find to mess with us
Drag me out my bed, threw me on the floor
Jam a battering ram through my front door
[Refrain]

Snakes are afraid of the revolution
[Bridge]
You need to free yourself from America’s special insidiousness of being inside you?
No brother, America’s condition, this is shit as far as the eye can see
And we’re in it
[Verse 3]
Charmed by the snake talk, or the newscast
Tellin’ half-truths along with a photograph
Have the government rewrite the news before it gets to you
Turn on the set and let them brainwash you
The press molests the minds of their observers
They do nothing but hide America’s murders
Qaddafi is not the enemy, you invaded his country
Killed his dogs, Now what are you gonna tell me
Statue of Liberty brainwashed those who come to her
Knowledge is [?] god bless America
[?] with envy
Rob me of my identity, not a [?] like a TV
Cause niggas ain’t no good
And I’m all with that
But instead of a nigga, try a brother that’s black
And black men trying to be exactly what they not
With a blonde in your arm, and I guess now you a big shot
[Refrain]
SNAKES, UNITED
SNAKES, UNITED
SNAKES, UNITED

[Verse 4]
I used to sit in this classroom, chewing up black cube
He used to kick me out when I wouldn’t agree with you
Columbus didn’t discovere America, he was lost in the West Indies
[?] gave smallpox to the Indians
Run them off they land, put them on reservations
Threaten to suspend me if I wouldn’t pledge allegiance
When I raised my hand you wouldn’t even call on me
Got an A in the class but still failed history
The kids in the white schools know who they are
Went off to college, my people behind bars
Taught me to better me, that’s white supremacy
They work for the government, mainly the presidency
Society teaches them to be racist, the plan is simple
And very basic, you teach them that my people are savage
Now they manage to keep my people in bondage
[Refrain]
SNAKES, UNITED
SNAKES, UNITED
SNAKES, UNITED
SNAKES, UNITED

SNAKES, UNITED
SNAKES, UNITED
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America
And to the republic for which it stands, one nation under their god
And freedom and justice for just them, PEACE
