What We Ask For

Canibus

[Chris Hedges]
Any state that has the ability to inflict full-spectrum dominance on its citizens is not a free state
Our liberty has been sacrificed on the altar of national security
To obtain your personal information the FBI can now freely issue National Security Letters
Without a Judicial warrant

[Chorus]
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
Then ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
We ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors

[Verse 1]
What if you talk to your shadow n ya' shadow talks back?
Why is your shadow wearing a tin foil hat?
Don't have any plans, don't wanna give tragedy a chance
So you pray on knees and hands and follow they commands
The Land of the monitored Free, Home of the monitored Brave
In other words we're all monitored Slaves
And for today we're gonna dig graves in the rain
Let's sing and praise and try to remember much happier days
Yeah Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
We ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors
Dismissive kisses, from pretty ass vampire bitches
Resist it, or end up with windpipe stitches
The reaction, breathless aghast, what an extraordinary ass?
That's why the men volunteer so fast
They've got 1 million laws you only gotta break one
To end up in a cell with Tarnush and his Sons
Hard knocks don't have weak spots, it's 2019
The beginning of a brand new epoch
Global currency swap, waffle twat just chartered a yacht
He bought it with stocks and bonds in a box
When they can't afford to choose but budget is not a problem
If they can't decide which one they want they buy all of 'em
Intruder detection, they own private musical section
Exercise equipment, two more stretches
Batman Catamaran, somersault splash
Exciting as a hundred yard football pass
Beer cans clams and smiles, big titty starboard style
You really feel like an artist now

[Chorus]
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
We ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
Then ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
We ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
Then ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors

[Verse 2]
The man from Somerton beach, police fingerprinted his feet
His face was calm, his clothes was neat
Was it yellow jacket or white magic aka white hats tricks?
Some say they won't do jack shit
Time will tell how scientists designed the bell
From the instructions that they discovered behind the veil
Blurred vision, thoughts get foggy, nightmares, extreme lethargy
Pet doggies with cerebral palsy
Barkin' at my face paint, facial recognition deterrent
Real ID permit, FEMA camp insurance
Sentenced to hell, after the verdict I had to work on the furnace
I charged extra for the warranty purchase
Dial 1-800-411-PAIN, give 'em your name
You get paid? you can keep the change
Re-gentrificate, send 'em to space, what a waste
The human race should never talk about confusion of face
Cause after they cull the herds
The suburbs'll just be a buzzword patrolled by tough nerds with plush furs
Turn key rappers, biochip internet access
Carbon tax credit benefactors forever laughing
At the frozen moisture, succulent boiling oysters
Immediate obedience to orders
Lunar operators have sworn to avoid human confrontation
To depopulate a stupid population

[Chorus]
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
Then ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors
Full Spectrum Dominance, that's what we asked for
We ended up on the wrong side of the blast doors

[Chris Hedges]
And you will never be notified of an investigation
It can collect and store in perpetuity all your metadata
Of your email correspondence and phone records, and track your geographical movements everywhere
It can assassinate US citizens if it brands this citizen to be a terrorist
It can order the military under Section 10 21...
