A nation full of fools, but you are an idiot Blindly follow and you call yourself a patriot When you’re really killing that flag that you wave How does it feel to be your country’s slave? So you want to know about patriotism? Question your beliefs and why you believe them Don’t let your politics come from society Or what some guy told you on the TV You’re a lamb to the slaughter, you trust politicians Quote your forefathers and say it’s your opinion Don’t even bother, come time for elections, To search for another source for your convictions A true patriot is one that forms his own views Not the one who blindly follows Fox news You say you love your country, then change it for the best Until it’s how you want it, you should never rest Educate yourself in what the government has done Research the topics and form you own opinion Don’t simply parrot everything you’re told Your mindless rhetoric has gotten pretty old You’re a lamb to the slaughter, you trust politicians Quote your forefathers and say it’s your opinion Don’t even bother, come time for elections, To search for another source for your convictions |
