• I heard em say
    That all hope is gone for youth today
    well, I say
    when you see the babies in the gutters
    drinking gin and juice instead of apple juice
    YOU WILL KNOW THE CULPRITS!
    I am the product of a country that gave up
    and let me wander forever to squander my dreams
    and then they told me to take out the trash
    So I fall with my cigarette ash
    And nothing Colbert tells me will subside the pain
    of a father dead, a family silent, and a lover scorned
    My blood drains toward the carpet
    and begins to sink in like the words of those
    that told us we cant succeed
    The sirens call for us
    telling sweet lies
    but if we believe, what are we really
    but a generation resigned to be the same as before
    We are Savages, ready to beat down your door
    Time and time again we collapse
    BUT WE SHALL RISE AGAIN!
    Because nothing seems to satisfy,
    The Phoenix folds it's wings and dies
    and I...Cant see a way out
    Scream with me: WE ARE THE BROKEN!
    Neither evil nor elite
    and when they kneel at your feet, shout:
    YOU ARE NOT FORGIVEN!
    And we cannot forget!
    "All great, earth-shaking events have been brought about, not by written work
    But by the Spoken Word!"
    So we are the Kings and Queens of your reality
    "The very ink with which all history is written is merely fluid prejudice"
    So we must author a new recollection
    "All men's souls are immortal, but the souls of the righteous are immortal and divine"
    So we must act as an example to preserve our purity
    I Heard Em Say we are unclean
    and I am proud to call myself filthy
    Because I am indefinitely stained with the marks of
    Freethought and Creativity
    No bleach will redeem me!
    I Heard Em Say we are UNCIVILIZED
    And I am here to say there is no greater title!
    We have ravished society until it crumbled from the weight of our Voice
    So we will march through the cities
    waving ripped flags
    Screaming
    What we HEARD EM SAY!
