In the middle of it

In the middle of it




Are waiting for the Revolution or some one to start it
Well if you look around and think you'll see you
Living in it now
The war is waging and you don't even see it
“They shot in”
And you getting hit with ever round
Things are happening that you don't like
Rules are being altered and you think you can't fight
The game is fixed and you know
IT ISN'T RIGHT
And you still think the revolution is just going to start up
One night
Your in the middle of it
Bombs are being dropped on your mind
Fluoride is poisoning you toothpaste supply
And this whole freedom think you have is the new prison of the time
Because they keep you working
SLAVEING
Glue to the tube as the rape you with no lube
The steal your children
Change the innocent thinking to merciless
All the while you are looking wondering when the revolution is going to
COME AROUND
Well it's here in your face
In your backyard
You are a casualty of the war you can't see
All while your waiting for something
That you in the middle of right now
