Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A5]It's all about money.
They don't care about
the people.
They can send them home,
make them homeless,
put them in the street.
They don't care if they're elderly,
disabled,
people who lost their jobs
or had a mental health condition.
They could care less.
They could care less.
It's only in America.
[F#5]The cops are supposed
to pro[A5]tect us,
and we can protect us from the cops.
There's an episode of blatant
criminal corruption
that's place at the highest level
of the financial institution.
Who have I told you the most powerful
thing in the world
was laundering money?
They say [A]trust [F#5]us. Trust us?
The people [A5]who brought us
worthless wiretapping
and other excesses [E]eroding
our [A5]civil liber[F5]ty?
[A5]Trust us?
[A]The greatest losses to our freedom
have come not [A5]from someone
[A]attacking [A5]us,
but from the government
ignoring the constitution
and the majority letting him get away.
The owners of this country
know the truth.
It's called the American Dream.
But you have to be asleep to believe [E]it.[F5][C#]
[C5][A5]

[A5]People are pissed off
about how they get treated
in the streets
and how people get killed.
We have a right to be made,
not only justified.
Does the government work for us
or do we work for the government?
Nearly two trillion tax dollars
[A5]have been shoveled
into the role that Wall Street laundry does.
How has the United [A5]States changed
from a humble, peaceful Republican
to a [A5]policeman?
