North Of Richmond (Remix)

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to

For people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true

But it is, oh, it is

Livin' in the new world with an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just want to have total control

Yeah, give me freedom or give me death

To that we pledge allegiances

We the people had enough, it's time we aired our grievances

Against these treasonous demons so raise the alarm

'Cause the pigs have fully taken over on this animal farm

Don't know anymore

This world's gotten too cold to ignore

Shit, is it 2023 or 1984?

Thought police up at my door to open fire on me but I'd rather

Die on my feet than survive on my knees and please

We know how they lookin' at us from up at the top

The tougher they made it for us

The fuckin' tougher we got

They thought they'd keep us scared forever but fuck it, we not

We'll send 'em back to north of Richmond in some cuffs or a box, bow

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to

For people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true

But it is, oh, it is

Livin' in the new world with an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just want to have total control

Behind the politicians there's a far more sinister villain

That's power driven

Only answer to money is their religion

They controllin' the way that we livin'

Keepin' us mentally stuck in a prison

So that the fire they know is rebellion

Never can spread whenever it's risen

But they been seein' us wakin' up and now they fuckin' afraid

As we the people get to seein' through their fuckin' charade

We're bein' played by these elites who would rather see us enslaved

As they lead us by the hand where the lands dug with a grave

And they could kill our character through stories they publish

Or they'll just murder us and brand it a suicide to the public

Or an accidental overdose

Print the story, run it

Say it's facts so people trust it

Accept it and move on from it

But it's time to pick a side and get to strikin' a nerve

And any way we're rebel, I'm fightin' this fight with my words

And if they keep pushin', then fuck it, we incitin' the purge

And just to think all we wanted was the rights we deserve

It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to

For people like me and people like you

Wish I could just wake up and it not be true

But it is, oh, it is

Livin' in the new world with an old soul

These rich men north of Richmond

Lord knows they all just want to have total control

Wanna know what you think

Wanna know what you do

And they don't think you know but I know that you do

Your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end

'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
