Born To Run

Born to run from the law Born to run from the order Born to run from a cop Born to run from a border This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake Born to run from the law Born to run from the order Born to run from a cop Born to run from a border This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake I curse the myth we're fed I calculate the dead I know the mission hasn't been accomplished yet 15 years of war means 100 more And that may be where we only begin I heard Katrina cry I saw the law denied I choked and suffocated on the smoke 'em out lie Maybe the answers we need won't be sold on a screen Is it the opioids? The CIA? The CNN? The Coca Cola in our veins? No one could see disaster staring right in our face Is it the air we breathe? The Flint water stream? The next iPhone? Or the Fair-Trade coffee? You gotta start somewhere, if you wanna get nowhere I won't believe the lie I can't concede our peace I know that no righteous words have been written to decease Crash and burn, toss and turn, somehow we were never prepared I heard Katrina cry I saw the law denied I choked and suffocated on the smoke 'em out lie Maybe the answers we need won't be sold on a screen Is it the opioids? The CIA? The CNN? The Coca Cola in our veins? No one could see disaster staring right in our face Is it the air we breathe? The Flint water stream? The next iPhone? Or the Fair-Trade coffee? You gotta start somewhere, if you wanna get nowhere Action not reaction as the world decays As we scream out loud like hell in civil war charades Stand together as one in the acid rain Kneel at our bed sides, speak to God, you pray Born to run from the law Born to run from the order Born to run from a cop Born to run from a border This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
