Bred for War

War machines churn out the instruments of death Beating the rhythm of orchestrated destruction The zealous and the powerful, clashing of wills Titanic powers at the play of egos Rally the masses to believe what they must So they’ll ride out in combat and burn each other to dust Thinly veiled xenophobic slaughter it’s become Opposition equals threat, die where you stand Bred to be Marched off to war Serve America Your god now Bred to be Only good for war Praise America Your god now Believe in the rhetoric and mottos of the rich Convince yourself you can rise above and be just like them Just serve your country and you can have your fill They determine your success based on the numbers you kill From high atop their mountaintop, looking down in greed The corporations you serve don’t care how much you bleed So fight for your life for them, fight til your death Keep the powerful where they are until your dying breath
