Operating out far beyond the reach
Never really practice what they seem to preach
Don't believe in it, uh ohh
Like thieves in the night, a sinner on the throne
Lining the pockets while everybody's working for it
No gettin' away from it
It's not what, it's who you know
Hide a smile in a straight face
But they'll never let it show
So how we ever gonna keep pace
See them running from the blame
Turning back on their mistakes
We've watched them losing at there own game
For so long
Feeding off the land
Survivors to the end
So far from reality they're gonna walk away with it
Don't take a leaf from it
Ruling over all, but drunk behind the wheel
The irons in the fire
But they've gone an taken leave of it
They made a play for it
It's not what, it's who you know
Hide a smile in a straight face
But they'll never let it show
So how we ever gonna keep pace
See them running from the blame
Turning back on their mistakes
We've watched them losing at there own game
For so long
Waiting up ahead of me
New public enemy
Pretending you're a friend of me
But I can't feel the chemistry
They closed the embassy
Forgotten tendencies
Memories move fast on the cold winds of change
Sitting back and watching side of stage
They think they've got it made
They'll start a brand new page
It's not what, it's who you know
Hide a smile in a straight face
But they'll never let it show
So how we ever gonna keep pace
See them running from the blame
Turning back on their mistakes
We've watched them losing at there own game
For so long
