All of your opinions will be scrutinized  You see your morals and beliefs  Are not your own  You've got to   Follow the flock, catch up and stay in line  Or they'll take away the keys  To your own damn mind  Your soul is not your own  Your contributions will be recognized  Only if they help to oil the machine  In retribution you've got to realize  You got to pick up a gun to be seen  All of your ambitions will be demoralized  You see you're only playing with half a deck  Once again do you have to be told  About the way you live your life  In your die cast mold  Shut up and only obey me  Your contributions will be recognized  Only if they help to oil the machine  In retribution you've got to realize  You got to pick up a gun to be seen  All your applications will be denied  You see you don't look and act like us  My words hit hard as fist listen to what I say  Or you will live a sheltered life ‘til your dying day  There ain't no way out  Your own ambitions   Your applications  Your own opinions don't mean shit  Your contributions  In retribution  You will find that there ain't no way  Out!
