Petroleum Distillation Lyrics - Fifteen

I've been having a hard time trying to justify 

The clouds arising from the cars we drive 

And a little too easy seems just a little too hard today 

And I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world waste away 

Been having a hard time trying to accept the fact 

That paying money for four walls leaves the slavery intact 

And a little too easy seems just a little too hard today 

And I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world slip away 

I know, I know, I know, life has become slavery 

Costs two dollars a minute and additional charges to pray to god today 

See I've been looking for some guidance but the voice on the phone ain't got a damn thing to say 

And a little too easy seems just a little too hard today 

And I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world fade away 

I was born a little too late to see the dream that they called America 

See I only want to be a Free man but it's against the law to sleep on the ground in Gods land 

And a little too easy seems just a little bit insane 

And I'm afraid I'm going to have to run for my life one of these days 

I know, I know, I know, life has become slavery 

The ground is my body, it's been poisoned with lead and junk food and toxic waste 

The sky is my mind it's been clouded with cigarettes and fluorocarbons and petroleum distillates 

The water's my heart, it's been broken with booze and drugs and shooting up paste 

The sun is my spirit, it belongs to all of us, I guess we're all one sick race 

And autonomy shall reward itself with freedom 

And humility shall reward itself with peace 

And the dissolution of possession and the integration of humanity 

Shall bring forth a sharing of our responsibility 

For our lives and our earth
