The Plague lyrics

The problem with asking questions

Is there underneath all the tension

Is fear of the truth

It starts as a little protrusion, a manifestation

Confusion's cause in spite of proof

The sweat's pouring off of your eyeballs

You're thinking about your survival 

And what's your next move

I know you want silence

I know you lack guidance

Wondering what you want your song to be, yeah

It starts as a corruption c-c-causing a consumption

Call me when you come down from the plague

And the presidents pull their masks off

Catching drops as the money man jacks off

Makeup covers up all the boils

From the time of the old Justinian

To the plains wiped clear of Indians

Empire requires blood, slaves and soil

I know you want silence

I'll never give you license

Wondering what we want this song to be, yeah

It starts as an infection c-c-causing insurrection

Call me when you come down from the... 

Uncomfortable being outspoken?

It's too late when chains are there

Chokin’ off your resistance

No matter how fucked up the offering, 

You're not for sale, you're no one's property

No one owns you, loans you, zones you yet

I know you want silence

But silence don't buy much

Wondering what you want your song to be, yeah

It starts as a consumption c-c-causing a corruption

Wondering what you want your song to be, yeah

I know you like silence

I know you lack guidance

Wondering what you want your song to be, yeah

It starts as an injection c-c-causing insurrection

Call me when you come down from the plague
