Our country is failing it's so called "forefather's plan"
(Advice would be deeply appreciated)

It's slipping!
It's slipping!
The grip is definately lost,
People always say
"We still have a cause",

Entirely false!
Entirely false!
No room left for all man's laws
People always say
"We still have a cause",

Not once have i seen
No, not once at all
The generations progress
Like I always say,
"This country is in a mess,"

Forget freedom!
Forget the doctrine!
I'm talkin about morality
But people see morals differently
In their own reality,

I've lost all hope!
Yes, lost all hope!
This country is in a spiral
A spiral headed downward,
Down for a great fall,

Still I've heard
"Theres hope"
A "hope" for what?
For less crime?
Face it, this country is in a rutt!

I see the liars!
I see the cheats!
Everyone has a secret
The moral sytem's corrupt,
We're never gonna beat it.

It's slipping!
It's slipping!
The grip is definately lost,
People always say
We still have a cause,

Entirely false!
Entirely false!
