Uh
Lemme put your values to the test
Livin in the USA you ain't got any values left
Uh
Colors ain't as vibrant as you used to remember them
All the blues ain't as blue and the reds ain't as red
But we got
Black bodies and brown bodies in body bags
White bodies have taken off with the money bags
Blue bodies that swear they protect and serve
But the bloody bodies that they body beg to disagree with that

The golden scales of justice, made of fool's gold
Old fools in office, what them fools sold?

Green eyes chasing green, they won't let it grow
And they won't let you know, they cutting it off
They hide the truth and never tell you till the colors are lost
And here we are, made to suffer it all, suffer the cost
Took the colors, and they muddled it all, cutting us off like
