No Win Situation

Hey hey America, what do you say
Is this what's called growing up the American way
Someone turned your lights out a long time ago
Ain't it funny how the devil himself could be the last one to know

It's a no win situation when you're always at a loss
When you're constantly forgiven you know you must have done something wrong

Hey hey America what do you know
What a surprise another black man on death row
One down a million to go is that your plan
At least have the decency to wear a hood and call yourself the klan

It's a no win situation when you're always at a loss
When you're constantly forgiven you know you must have done something wrong

Hey hey America let's play a little game
You preach and tell me not to kill but then you do it in my name
You wonder why they shoot with blood in their eyes
What did you expect growing up in a larger then life lie

It's a no win situation when you're always at a loss
When you're constantly forgiven you know you must have done something wrong
