Am                                   G/B      C

I know that you had big dreams

Won't make a free land

You got a white picket fence and your dad's got a gun

And when you see the police there's no reason to run

You got a job, and a car, and a good dental plan

Am
Fuckеd with the food chain

                G/B      C
Fucked with the farming too

                         G
And now our food don't tastе

                   E (E F G E)
Like it's meant to do
[Pre-Chorus 2]
              Am
They've got blood on their hands
'Cause they stole all the land
    G/B      C
And all the lies they're here to raise
Made them feel like a man
              Dm7
Who gave you jazz, hip-hop, rock and roll, and the blues?

           E                            N.C.
No matter what, the story's catching up on you
