lyrics

A mind state instilled, decency distilled
The will of the majority, intent to kill hope
In all the targeted races. Keep their faces
From appearing outside designated lands
Keep places well out of reach by means of paces
Should they penetrate treat 'em as outcasts and vagrants
Only because they born of another race
Like it's some grave mistake that they see fit to erase
Yet convince everyone that they ain't racist
But tell 'em it's the way that society is changing
Keepin' 'em at the bottom, making the top
Seem insurmountable, so failure turns their heart rotten
Now they got 'em right where they want 'em:
Legally free, but never in society
The longer they can't see, the greater their success
The greater chance they will have in their conquest

You can't fool all the people all of the time
At some point the blinders will fall from their eyes
They will look around and see that they're oppressed
And they will rise up, no longer be suppressed
You can't fool all the people all of the time
At some point the blinders will fall from their eyes
They will look around and see that they're oppressed
And they will rise up, no longer be suppressed

Now I've seen the plan work
But I've seen the other side - they ain't holed up in church
They got some other ideas, so it's safe to say
Violence has taken over, for lack of better ways
Honestly, what else have they got?
We didn't invest in them enough to move on beyond the block
So they act like they won't. I'd like it if they could
But everything I see around them ain't very good
Observe their families, observe their leaders, their teachers
Who couldn't care less. All these features
Produce a sum not equaled in the 'burbs
Well... I'll admit that's a guess but I'm pretty sure
What I've listed are variables in the equation
And we're starting to see the powder keg reach detonation
Were you unaware before you stumbled on this?
History will look back and verify we were remiss

You can't fool all the people all of the time
At some point the blinders will fall from their eyes
They will look around and see that they're oppressed
And they will rise up, no longer be suppressed
You can't fool all the people all of the time
At some point the blinders will fall from their eyes
They will look around and see that they're oppressed
And they will rise up, no longer be suppressed
