In my neighborhood the families*
They are living in fear
They can no longer count on the system
To alleviate their desperation
How can you rise up
If the government going to deport
Afraid of being arrested
Invaded in the night
Afraid of this government
Cages of democracy
Take away their names
And put a number in their place
Then shoved into a cell
To make the public feel safe
Locked away because the color of your skin
Afraid to fight the system
'Cause they tell you you won't win
Racist fucking pigs that control this democracy
Don't care about the damage to working class families
Migrant workers face incarceration
And the mentally ill don 't get rehabilitation
Cages of democracy
They keep slaves of the system
