Producer: Sean McMahon

[Verse 1]
The system has failed, and you have failed with it
No time to care. Just time to say, "Who gives a shit?"
My mind boils as I've decided I'm through
Fuck your position in life, I'm taking vengeance on you
Break down the walls of the political arena
Cast the vote on FN-FAL, yeah, we'll be seein' ya

[Verse 2]
Oh yeah
I want to put a cap right in your asshole
You step to this, you're gonna pass for
A lump of dog shit in the grass, now
Be on your way to get some class
Bitchslap, bitchslap
Bitchslap, bitchslap
Bitchslap, bitchslap
Bitchslap

[Verse 3]
Chop down the big-wigs
Shoot the telelvisions, too
My mind boils in life as I've decided I'm through
The guilty of crimes will be hung from the trees
Spit and punches arise from you and the me

[Outro]
Sit back and do nothing if that's what you wanna do
I will have my reign as king when I take vengeance on you
On you, back on you, back on you
Back on you [?]
