Money or Blood

There's a sad wind been blowin'
And It's blowin' here still
They all want your allegiance
When it's time to go and kill
To my boss I am a number
To my country I'm one too
You might be their favorite pen
Until the ink is through
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
They teach their version of history
And indoctrinate with hate
Then they point their crooked fingers
While they're swiping from your plate
But every immigrant
That you blame for your place
Stares into your eyes
With your grandfather's face
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
You may claim it's your right
To stockpile ammo
And enough weapons
To destroy a small town
Well I say it's my right
To raise my daughter
In a country
Where classrooms
Are not gunned down
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
There are billions in the treatment
There's no mansion in the cure
It's the crowning achievement
Of some CEO I'm sure
When the preacher's passin' 'round
That ol' collection plate
Do you reach into your pocket
And pay the subscription for your fate
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
Money or Blood
They all want Money or Blood
