Third world problems in a first world nation

Health care for all, living wage plus pension
Plus affordable housing, that equals suicide prevention
Just listen
Crime rate would practically be non-existent
That's not what the state wants
They gotta fill up their prison systems
Fund cops, black ops, and all their henchmen
To assault their own citizens
This is the state we living in
That twenty-five percent that the Feds take
A quarter of our year, that's how that number equates
Three months worth of work and back breaks
In exchange for what exactly?
A park for our kids to skate?
How about a doctor to take our kids when they shake
Or an apartment that doesn't rape us for every dollar we make
A handshake from our employer that doesn't thank us
By just saying great job, but shows us by what they pay
This ain't utopia or hopium, this our day to expose 'em
And let 'em know that this time we won't go away
Ok

A first world nation
According to who, I say
According to U, SA, of course

The States are gonna state they're the greatest
But a nation's greatness can be gauged by the way
That they treat their most vulnerable populations among them
That's not even a controversial statement, but the nation's split
So the jury came back hung, huh
Your honor, there's nothing honorable here
It's all just smoke and mirrors
For years our vulnerable ones you've
Hung them
Then toasted cheers in your chambers with all your peers
While our families have shed tears trying to honor our lost
Loved ones
How can we honor them properly, when it's obviously obvious
That they were cautiously cautious, but they still
Caught one
Of your hot headed cops, holding a certificate
Took him all six months to get it, and at the end then he
Got guns
Holding a pistol along with a generational disposition
Of hating whatever race he is
Not of
Won't ask a name, he'll just shoot him and then he'll frame him
Unless someone is taping, they'll suspended him with pay
Wait, what?
