RISING ABOVE THE SYSTEM:
SIX BEST FRIENDS FROM PALMDALE CALIFORNIA GOT TIRED OF WATCHING LIFE SLIP INTO THIS SYSTEM WE CALL DEMOCRACY. DON'T GET US WRONG, DEMOCRACY IS A GOOD IDEA IF WE WOULD JUST TAKE AWAY THE CLASSES THAT DIVIDE US. TOO MANY PEOPLE ARE UNEDUCATED, POOR, AND LIVING IN POVERTY. SO ANYWAY, WE GOT TOGETHER SOMETIME IN LATE 2000 AND BOUGHT INSTRUMENTS, STARTED DOING SOME RESEARCH AND EDUCATING OURSELVES. WE SEE AMERICA AS A GREAT COUNTRY WITH MANY GREAT EQUALITIES, IF WE COULD ONLY LIVE UP TO WHAT OUR GOVERNMENT PREECHES EVERYDAY. NEVER WAS AMERICA (#6) IS A VERY CONTROVERSIAL SONG THAT CAN GET PEOPLE STIRRED UP. ALL WE ASK IS, OPEN YOUR MIND A LITTLE, REMEMBER, WERE YOUNG, SO WHAT WE HAVE SEEN IN OUR LIFETIME IS GOING TO BE A DIFFERENT PERCEPTION THAN WHAT YOUR GRANDPA HAS OF THIS COUNTRY. NOT SAYING HE IS WRONG AND WE ARE RIGHT, IT'S JUST DIFFERENT TIMES WITH DIFFERENT SITUATIONS. TRUE PATRIOTISM TO US IS STANDING UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS, NOT BLINDLY LOOKING THE OTHER WAY AND STICKING THE "UNITED WE STAND" STICKER ON YOUR BUMPER. UNITED WE STAND IS A GOOD SLOGAN, IT'S TIME WE BREAK THE TRENDS AND START LIVING UP TO IT. |
