The American Mirror

and the eyes you see in the mirror
are they helping you see things clearer
can you see that war is hell
or are you blinded by the Aeropostale
when our American eagle begins to hurt
can you see through the one that you have on your shirt
people are starving in Asia, shit people are starving nextdoor
you don't care though because you don't know what its like to be poor
"But there is nothing I can do to stop it"
correct but you can stop making profit
off of the war off of the hate
off the parent less children in Kuwait
when it comes to social structure your made
but its not because of money saved
its because of the people out there who have cried
because people like you out there have lied
if you gave them that T-shirt i bet it would fit
but you won't because for now you don't give a shit
and you won't give a shit until its all gone
and you know what its like to be just holding on
and you'll know what its like to not be as free as you want
when you have to move to the hood from your ranch in Vermont
when you know what its like to have nothing there
then you'll start to learn how to care
