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
