lyrics

Take Aim
They’re aim’n you and the crew that is pose’n
They’re aim’n at me and the team that I’ve chosen
They’re aim at us now we’re stuck in the open
Lets aim it at them put an end to the hope’n (x2)

Choke’n on your cereal watching the news feed
Troops bleed imperial moves of youths feet
Slurp the bowl, of utter shit sip
Slip past the public eye lies worse than the toll
Now, hold your breathe you’ve been told to rest
Not to question why wars have always been cold
Way before the Soviets and long after the wall
At the call of the banks tanks burst through the door
Pour the oil and burn the gas
Turn the taps of OPEC with no cheques to cash
Some tried to protest got tied and bashed
Others became pirates Niger Delta stash
Seek’n a piece of the pie use’n a piece you’ll die
Survive’n with no peace can eat you alive
And I’ve come to the conclusion that
Ridding humans off the map is the planets solution


They’re aim’n you and the crew that is pose’n
They’re aim’n at me and the team that I’ve chosen
They’re aim at us now we’re stuck in the open
Lets aim it at them put an end to the hope’n (x2)

So why do the states want control of Caracas?
It aint for their maracas, leather goods and alpacas
Shits got nackers
The A team been try’n muscle in like BA Baracas
Scenes are streamed beemed live to ya set
Believe what you’ve seen seems your eyes need a check
There’s smoke on the water and fire in the sky
Lies run deep like purple and urge you to buy
Every last drop the weapons blast
Seconds tick people hit but but profits pass
The military’s a well oiled machine
Just check for Pat Tillman and how they drilled his dream
Screens filled its been built as the free
Saving the oppressed from the hands of tyranny
And the irony doesn’t escape
Like the head of a state make’n a break and try’n to flee.


They’re aim’n at you
They’re aim’n at me
They’re aim’n at us
Let’s aim it at them
They’re aim’n you and the crew that is pose’n
They’re aim’n at me and the team that I’ve chosen
They’re aim at us now we’re stuck in the open
Lets aim it at them put an end to the hope’n
