#Establishments (Verse 1) yea My pockets full of virtues (really need to pronounce this clearly cause it sounds like you say 'verses') Ive been living off of these verses Packing backpacks with my fears As I rocket across oceans Must I leave this place I love so much Politicians that I cannot trust All just run amok looking for rich donors to fund them up Claim to be one of us as they cover up lust Fucking our system after they say they are celibate Spend a few more dollars now they get a few more delegates Fuck a debt limit while the poor live in squalor They sold their soul and honor, who do they really represent? (Chorus?) But I don't think they care for y'all (x2) (These bits after the repeated line should be said in double time) Drop that ballot in the bin Just so that they win (or, just to get a pin?) But I don't think they care for y'all (x2) I think my voting is a sin It's all dust in the wind But I don't think they care for y'all (x2) Does the fight begin? Does it even matter in the end? Cause I don't really care no more, I don't really care no more (Verse 2) (Digging into this. I love the ensuing rhymes off "represent". I see the connection between the "Spending money" and "Taking money" lines, so I didn't want to touch those.) Spending money from the people Getting rich is what they represent All this starts to make some sense Our government is full of shit Taking money from the people Giving back to the establishment Just so they can establish what? (I think the "A land of lavish" line works great for rhymes and imagery, Struggled on how to finish the line cause flow feels off...gave a couple of examples,) A land of lavish with no enrichment (Maybe you can force the rhyme btwn "what" and "enrichment" or "deficient" based on pronounciation?) A land of lavish so deficient (Hard to describe but I'm thinking a 'break' in flow. At this point in the song, you've been going steady. Here, you do short lines with pauses to fill up the measure. Delivery would be key. Then one long bar, then back to the steady flow for the end of the song.) Insufficient Inefficient Inconsistent And with malignant intent, they steal our nourishment (probably need to pad this line more to fit 2 measures) I don’t think that we having it (x2) We came here for our freedom So best believe we getting that again I never promised loyalty to those I wouldn’t fight for them why would I believe that we’d be safe from the establishment (establishment) Thinking of the places that we could leave, we wasn't having it Thinking of the places that we could live in peace (yea I know) Wanna be free and wanna live happily with glee (yea I know) Know that the pursuit of happiness is an inalienable right One that was given to me without the need for fight But i been fighting all my life so im a keep it real tight Link to the beat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XYLkXXnF1g
