Compared to What (feat. Carl Hancock Rux)

I said I love to lie (Yeah), lie to love

Hangin' on with push and shove

Possession is the motivation

That's hangin' up the whole damn nation

Looks like we always end up in a rut

Tryin' to make it real (Tryin' to do it) but compared to what?

(Compared to what, baby?)

Slaughterhouse (Yeah) is killin' hogs

Twisted children killin' frogs

Poor dumb rednecks, all rollin' logs

Tired old ladies are kissin' dogs

And I hate that human love of that stinking mutt

Tryin' to make it real but compared to what?

I said the president, he's got his war

Folks don't know just what they're fighting for (Fighting for)

No one gives us rhyme or reason

Have one doubt and they call it treason

And we're all chicken feathers without one gut

Tryin' to make it real (Just keep it real, baby) but compared to what?

Goin' to church on Sunday, they sleep and nod

They're tryin' to duck the wrath of God

Preacher fillin' our head with lies

Telling what he thinks is right (Oh yeah)

But who must be some kind of stupid nut

He tries (Tries, tries), try to make it real (Oh, he tries)

Tries, try to make it real

Try to make it real

Real

Try to make it real

Try to make it real (That's it, check it out)

Try to make it real (Yeah, let's go)

Try to make it real

Where's that bee and where's that honey?

Where's my God and where's my money?

Unreal values crap distortion

Unwed mothers need abortion

And it kind of brings to mind young King Tut

He tried, tried

Tried, tried

Tried, tried

Tried, tried

Tried to make it real

Tried to make it real

Tried to make it real

Tried to make it real but compared to what?

I said I love to lie, lie to love

Hangin' on with push and shove

Possession is that motivation

Hangin' up the whole damn nation

And it looks like we always end up in a rut

Tried to make it real

Tried

Tried to make it real (Tried to make it real)

We tried (Tried to make it, tried to make it real)

Tried to make it real (Tried to make it real)

Tried to make it real (Tried to make it, tried to make it real)

Tried to make it real (Tried to make it, tried to make it real)

But compared to what?

Tried to make it real

Tried to make it real

Tried to make it real

Tried to make it real

(Tried, tried)
