In our day certain economic truths have become accepted as self-evident A second Bill of Rights under which a new basis of security and prosperity Can be established for all Regardless of station, race, or creed Among these are The right to a useful and remunerative job The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return Which will give him and his family a decent living The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom From unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home or abroad The right of every family to a decent home The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment The right to a good education All of these rights spell security And after this war is won we must be prepared to move forward In the implementation of these rights To new goals of human happiness and well-being For unless there is security here at home there cannot be lasting peace in the world Look at what we've become There's no pursuit of happiness with no rights Look at what we have done Where's the constitute to treat us with no sight Dont tread on me Give me your tired, your poor Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free The wretched refuse of your teeming shore Words from that gleaming whore Learn from that bleeding torch No gold no more So told for score Was a man Too old for doors Not opened Shot hoping The Union would last Confederate flags fly in administrate masts Insurrected, dissected, but never corrected Parade streets nazis now expected Franklin's feats not see the accepted Learn from our history This country ain't no ministry Too many wars over shore that bore gore from the young at the core Passed down to generations that sat down from the tire of 40 hours 5 days Stories matter, lies pay A pretty penny with the head of man who died in vain Took one to the brain FDR just left a stain in This system like cyanide The written through Einstein Open but no dry eyes Hoping to go ride lies Vilify the ones in tye dye The sick and the poor Greet them with freedom go meet them to please them grow with them America's cultures Not just American culture These people aint no vultures Constitute your brain to hold her I mean liberty that dame who's bolder Change the flag like those two soldiers God bless America That's what we've done now look at what we've become More wealth than health jet stealth innocents felt citizens dealt written self Slavery in penitentiaries Savory sin accessories Older soldiers kicked to street now colder No human rights for those loomin' despite warmer vibes From news tied to lies from those on top but why Cause a minimal percentage own the majority of wealth Understand that means the majority of us all sell Our souls to f*ck goals Its the American dream we're told The real is a key to this mere mold Economic rights would get us there Security from the rich we must bear The criminals contended They'll soon be apprehended Justice is the sight but this system isn't right Why pull up my boot straps When I can just spew raps Words formed in a syntax Reiterated through time lapse This country is in relapse We struggle but it don't have to be that Enact the Second Bill of Rights React to the residential fights The people cry now listen Every fall we have risen Even if we are in this prison Free healthcare Free education Free childcare Free Human Rights We Are Free
