Damnation

I have witnessed evil and every kind of uh oh and kept my mouth shut
No more, no more, no more
Is it true that God gives nothing to those who keep their arms locked?
True, it's true
If it is, then I'm wide open—Ooh, I open my mouth
I solicit from the complicit a shout and a change of heart
Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready to start?
Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready to start?
Who is the beast that crushes the weak? Tramples the poor like they were dirt?
Delights in bribes, and every kind of uh-oh, denying justice to the needy, the hurt?
Give me a name, give me an address
Ping me, will you ping me with a GPS location
It's the whole damnnation! It's the whole damnnation!
Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready to start?
Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready to start?
Make the world you believe in, make the world you wanna see
Put a little love in the mix, we've got a lot to fix
The time has come, the time has come, the time has come
Go, to Washington, DC and sin
Go to 16th and H Streets and sin even more
And bring your photo ops to me every morning
Your dollar in a bucket every third day
Or you could hate what is evil, and love what is good
Be the minstrel who sings, knows right from wrong
Until you find that melody, remove from me
Until you find that melody, remove from me
Until you find that melody, remove from me the noise of your songs
Time to rustle up more than a whisper
Sure were on the brink, the edge of demise
If I had to choose one thing to change though
I'd recommend we begin with the deadly ubiquity of lies
