What Have We Got To Lose? Lyrics by The Perceptionists
Black Dialogue
2005
[Mr. Lif] FEAR-or is it just lack of information? THERE-deep within the fabric of the nation QUESTION-what will it take to break the walls? ANSWER-strength from us and all of yall Here's the stamp to the people- repeat after me Put your hand over your heart and breathe deep "I will no longer pledge allegiance to a government That makes no efforts to relieve my suffering!" Tax inflation, home invasion- Ask then what the fuck did they do with our payments!? Put aside the work, then they claim we're complaining Raise health care, cut back on education The world's largest anti-war demonstration Was answered by bombs dropping and blood draining Don't forget the rubber bullets and jail time Catch it on the net- you can see it in real time You don't give a fuck about us, why should we give a fuck about you The system works for the few There's plenty of us out there, who might dare Form and independent state, where life is more fair We'll have our own laws, own schools, own cash too- And none of these funds will flow to you We're cutting you off cause it's clear we don't share the same views- WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO LOSE!?! NO MORE And when we tolerate it for YOUR CAUSE We'll be eliminiated You're selling us dreams and lies but we'll no longer be abused- WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO LOSE? [Akrobatik] It's the same old story- You turn on the news the scene is mad gory Another old boy in a suit collects glory And tells us all to worry Cause it's "Orange Alert!" there's foreigners hurt Let's hurry to the nearest bomb shelter, deep beneath the city To talk about these imminent threats and janet jackson's titty And which 'America's Top Models' are pretty Whole time, got 'em cooking in the back, is some shitty recipe Meant for me and you, meant to be consumed If we enigneer the food right, we could feed the room for cheap And their organs hit the road while they sleep Pump 'em full of nicotine till they six feet deep! (Peep this shit that's goin' on) We no longer go along With your disrespect, total neglect, and shitty checks (YEAH) It's time for the people to stand up and stop being used- WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO LOSE!?! NO MORE And when we tolerate it for YOUR CAUSE We'll be eliminiated You're selling us dreams and lies but we'll no longer be abused- WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO LOSE?
