    Oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' suicide
    singin' oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' genocide
    oh my my...

    Slam bam I come unseen
    but like gasoline you can tell I'm in the tank
    like money in the bank
    I smell appealing, but I'm toxic, can send ya reeling
    without an inklin', keep ya thinkin'
    'cause you gave cash to the feds, left your school district fordead
    fucked you up in the head, but still they sayin' nothin's wrong
    sellin' firewater but outlawing the bong
    still believing the system is workin'
    while half of my people are still outta workin'
    anonymous notes left in the pockets and coats
    of judges and juries from 'Frisco to Jersey
    threats and protests politicians mob debts
    trumped up charges and phoney arrests
    stage a lethal injection, the night before the election
    'cause he got donations from the prison guard's union

    Oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' suicide
    singin' oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' genocide
    oh my my...

    Listen in to my stethoscope on a rope
    internal lullabies, human cries
    thumps and silence, the language of violence
    algorithmic, cataclysmic, seismic, biorhythmic
    you can make a life longer, but you can't save it
    you can make a clone an then you try to enslave it?
    stealin' DNA samples from the onborn
    and then you comin' after us
    'cause we sampled a James Brown horn?
    scientists who's God is progress
    a four-headed sheep is their latest project
    the CIA runnin' like that Jones from Indiana
    but they still won't talk about that (Jim) Jones
    (People's Temple mass suicide) in Guyana
    This ain't no cartoon
    no one slips on bananas
    do you really think that that car killed Diana
    hell I shot Ronald Reagan, I shot JFK,
    I slept with Marilyn (Monroe) she sung me happy birthday
    singin'

    Oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' suicide
    singin' oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' genocide
    oh my my...

    Well politicians got lipstick on the collar
    the whole media started to holler
    but I don't give a fuck who they screwin' in private
    I wanna know who they screwin' in public
    robbin', cheatin', stealin'
    white collar criminal
    McDonald eatin', you deserve a beatin'
    send you home a weepin', with a fat bill for your
    Caribbean weekend
    for just about anything they can bust us
    false advertising sayin' "halls of Justice''
    you tellin' the youth don't be so violent
    then you drop bombs on every single continent
    mandatory minimum sentencin'
    'cause he got caught with a pocket fulla medicine
    do that again another ten up in the pen
    I feel so mad I wanna bomb an institution
    singin'

    Oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' suicide
    singin' oh-my, oh-my God!
    in my mind they got us livin' genocide
    oh my my...
