Machine Head
Civil Unrest (digital)
1. Stop the Bleeding
The endless scroll of human tragedy
I swipe along as the days go by
Another brother murdered out in the streets
I connect to the shame, we don't know what it's like
Born lucky cause the color of the skin
America your heart is caving in
Somehow I thought this was the land of the free
Where is our humanity?
Our humanity
Beating after beating
Throat choked under knee
Help me please
Because I can't breathe
Just stop the bleeding
Body after body
Piled up in the streets
Stand and fight
Not another life
Just stop the bleeding
And some will claim it's a conspiracy
The fake news out to undermine
When riots fight off white supremacy
Never given a choice, so they're drawing a line
I stare and look out at the world in disgust
These men are dying over nothing just
Good men stand up and show your bravery
For a lost democracy
Our democracy
Beating after beating
Throat choked under knee
Help me please
Because I can't breathe
Just stop the bleeding
Body after body
Piled up in the streets
Stand and fight
Not another life
Just stop the bleeding
Our strife
Our struggle
Fight through these open wounds
Beating after beating
Throat choked under knee
Help me please
Because I can't breathe
Just stop the bleeding
Body after body
Piled up in the streets
Stand and fight
Not another life
Just stop the bleeding
Our strife
Our struggle
Fight through these open wounds
2. Bulletproof
America, tearing at the seams
The tension is rising, corruption and greed
Hysteria, inequality
The rich mad with power, the poor left to bleed
Bleeding, hemorrhaging
Driven to our knees
The beatings, the chokings, the violent decree
An effigy burning dollar bills
The stock market profits with every kill
Each day the toll higher
Bail out the bastards
Nothing to the poor
Distract and deny
Deflect and decide
The sacrificial lamb for the knife
'Cause what's another life?
For them it's all worth the price
Oh father they are the
Grave makers
Soul takers
Oathbreakers
We must be
Bulletproof
(One body)
Bulletproof
(Unbroken)
Bulletproof
(One struggle)
Show no fear, speak the truth
Bullet
Bullet
Bulletproof
Obliterate, see through all the lies
The media tells us the stories they hide
Incinerate gods they bring to life
The hypocrite Christians proclaiming pro-life
These times are abortion
Twisting the truth, contortion is a game
They taunt and they tame
They shout and they shame
The cruelty is the point of the pain
They need someone to blame
A scapegoat to vent their rage
Oh father they are the
Grave makers
Soul takers
Oathbreakers
We must be
Bulletproof
(One body)
Bulletproof
(Unbroken)
Bulletproof
(One struggle)
Show no fear, speak the truth
Bullet
Bullet
Bulletproof
These hooks peel back the lies
Coronavirus eyes
Wake the fuck up America, ripping at the seams
The tension is rising, corruption and greed
Incinerate the gods they bring to life
The Christians proclaiming pro-life
Grave makers
Soul takers
Oathbreakers
We must be
Bulletproof
(One body)
Bulletproof
(Unbroken)
Bulletproof
(One struggle)
Show no fear, speak the truth
Bullet
Bullet
Bulletproof
Slowly we take our necks from the noose
As we set fire to the roof
Invincible we are the truth
We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
