The government, their not helping no one out, except for the rich people
There´s a lot of wealth in this city
And that´s who the government is looking out for
Dem people up there, yeah

Like they´re not thinking of us, there thinking about that one pocket, that´s up there
In the city there´s a real focus on celebrity and money and materialism

To tell the truth I can´t stand this place
It´s getting harder every day to put the smile upon my face (I know)
I can´t keep up with all the lies it creates and it might have it in the name but trust, there ain´t nothing great

It makes me violent
So violent
But please, please no violence
No violence

Woo, no violence today

Put your weapons away
I often feel my life is clutched in its claws
Looking for reasons it should love me, feel I´m clutching at straws (The fucking)
You turn your nose up and don´t fight for my cause
They´re okay, cool, but some day soon there´ll be no one to fight for yours

It makes me violent
So violent
But please, please no violence
No violence

It´s hard to see when you´ve been wrapped in its spell
Where it tries to break what doesn´t fit or leave it trapped in a cell (I´ve seen it)

Look at the beast, it wants me gone, I can tell
I thought about it but for now I´d rather stay and give them hell

It makes me violent
So violent
But please, please no violence
It´s what they´ve always given me
Someone´s always telling me
Just calm down and let it be
Violent (It makes someone I don´t wanna be)
So violent (Driving some place I don´t want to be)
But please, please no violence
Yeah, it´s what they´ve always given me
Someone´s always telling me
Just calm down and let it be
