From the recording Smokin' & Chokin'

Lyrics

~ Smokin' and Chokin' ~

You took
The hook
The bait
And now they come for our water
That is their desire

They've scratched
And clawed
Just to
Take it all
An empire...
Set it on fire

And I can't deny
I've been blind
For quite some time

And now
I despise
My own mind

You took
The hook
The bait
And they come for our water

There's been a shift
A grift
A ruse
They want us dead

They're smokin' and chokin' but we're the ones who's fuckin' backs are broken

You're smokin' and chokin' and we're the ones who's fuckin' futures stolen
You're smokin' and chokin' and we're the ones whose fuckin' hope is broken

A green eyed monster wanting ever more
A lust for money power and whores

And I finally got you figured out!
Finally got you figured out!
