Letra de Built for You

This place is flawed, and I don’t want to be a part of it
We’re living in a mediocrity of policy
How did we take so many steps, towards the brighter side?
Only to find ourselves decades back from where we were
This is embarrassment
On a global scale
A damaged system
Built on the blood of minority
We fought wars for this
United lives for this
Saw the dangers of supremacy
So we put a stop to it
But now you’re living proof
That when you forget the past
We’re doomed to repeat ourselves
Feel our old mistakes pulling us back
They drag us further in time
Back to a feeble state of mind
It’s hard to imagine
That we live in the land of the free
Cause I don’t know about you
This place was built for you not me
Built on hypocrisy
This place was built for you, not me
Every minority
Will find gold in this grey
[Garrett Russell]
It seems like every day, when you turn on the news it’s the same old headline
Our brothers dying in the streets, at the hands of the pigs that swore to protect us
While hate and intolerance parade the streets without consequence
But when we fight them back, you paint us as savages
[Garrett Russel]
What do you picture for us?
Sending your troops to round us up
Rewriting history
Erasing all that’s left of me
This place is flawed, and I don’t want to be a part of it
We’re living in a mediocrity of policy
How did we take so many steps, towards the brighter side?
Only to find ourselves decades back from where we were
This is embarrassment
On a global scale
A damaged system
Beyond repair
This place was built for you, not me
This place was built for you, not me
This place was built for you, not me
This place was built for you
