Hacker Hubby - We The People Lyrics

They keep us split, keep us blind to the scheme,
Pointin' fingers at each other while they stackin' the green.
Red vs. blue, yeah, they playin' a game,
But behind closed doors, they all sip the same.
We fight for the scraps, they feast at the top,
Told to blame our neighbor while they callin' the shots.
But if we look past the banners they wave,
We might just see we're all stuck in the cage.

Break these chains, break these walls,
Ain't about the names, ain't about the calls.
It's about the hearts, about the hands,
Not the lines they draw in the sand.
We the people, we the fight,
Ain't divided, we ignite.

Skin tone don't make you an enemy,
Your god, your flag don't make you a threat to me.
They push the fear, they feed the hate,
Divide and conquer-keep control of the state.
They profit off riots, off wars and the pain,
While we out here strugglin' just tryin' to maintain.
Different views, yeah, we ain't all the same,
But bleed the same red when we're caught in the rain.

Break these chains, break these walls,
Ain't about the names, ain't about the calls.
It's about the hearts, about the hands,
Not the lines they draw in the sand.
We the people, we the fight,
Ain't divided, we ignite.

They set the wages, they keep 'em low,
Make sure the rich get to watch us below.
We work the grind, break our backs,
While they print money just to cover their tracks.
They say it's our fault, we ain't workin' enough,
While they buy another mansion, another gold cuff.
Tell me how that's fair, tell me how that's right,
When we're barely holdin' on, just tryin' to survive.

It's deeper than money, it's deeper than skin,
They got us fightin' over who gets in.
Borders, ballots, colors, and faith,
While they laugh in their towers, keep winnin' the race.
We ain't each other's enemies, nah,
We been playin' the pawn in a long facade.

Look in the mirror, tell me what you see,
Ain't a left, ain't a right, just humanity.
No red, no blue, no label to wear,
Just another soul out here gaspin' for air.
It's about the grind, about the way we survive,
Not about who's wrong, who's pickin' a side.
We all got dreams, we all got pain,
But the only way we rise is if we break the chain.

It's about the hearts, about the hands,
Not the lines they draw in the sand.
We the people, we the fight,
Ain't divided, we ignite.

They send 'em to war, then leave 'em to fall,
Come back home, can't get help at all.
Sacrifice limbs, sacrifice years,
But a CEO makes more in a day than their peers.
We salute the flag, but who salutes back?
When they're strugglin' with trauma, left lost in the cracks?
A system so broken, a cycle so cold,
But still, they fight, still stand so bold.

Ain't about where you come from,
Ain't about who you pray to,
Ain't about who you vote for,
It's about who we are.
It's about the struggle, about the fight,
And if we stop the hate-we just might win this time.
