Till My Soil

Till the soil Coming rain quenches thirsty crops again Laying idle keeps you tired since the growing time expired I don't know what's come over me Once I was so scholarly And now I realize my fate Time has come to irrigate Gotta till my soil Fertilize the plains to keep the brains alive Sucker-fools around Counted on by those who clearly keep them on the ground Ground level street-wise pain makes a good man go insane They taught you well by teaching none Now you help their business run with your consumer ignorance Coerner you at no expense I sometimes wonder who's to blame Mighty nation falling lame If you're thirsty for knowledge, then drink of the wine You'll never achieve it if you don't tend the vine A glimmer of sunlight wrestles the clouds Calling the rooted seep up from the ground Driven by will Not by fear Driven by will to keep my planet here Criticize me - I'm taking it back I am the millions that pay the tax dollars that keep you fat It's about damn time that we bury your crime Crime-ridden government Can you hear the message sent? The education has begun Billions all becoming one Your faithful flock now bearing teeth Find your wicked beneath the hooves of all you've made recoil Earth is for the ones that till the soil
