Momma said there'd be days like this
But I never quite believed it til the flood tore the piss out my town
we already got it bad, yes I've seen a few friends die,
but I ain't ever seen a mother fucker drown
Its all sink no swim when your hopes look grim
Oh Shit I think the levee broke again
We're all hopeless, helpless, lost...I shouldn't use another synonym
Get Money get paid get rich?
but my house is now down at the bottom of the river bitch!!
Hard to believe in the American Dream
When everything I owned just floated down stream
here was the church, there went the steeple
Open the doors and out float the people
It's getting harder to believe in love
When All I got is prayers to my lord above
All washed away All washed
Our Culture's getting washed away
Back to the message back to reality
For CNN and Fox its just a media frenzy
Feeding on disaster and feeding the poor
For them its just a mother fucking ratings war
Need to fend for ourselves save whatever we can
Need to figure out our own disaster plan
Try to help the homeless, sick and injured
While our leader's out golfing in Martha's Vineyard
Oh God how's this come to be
My city looks like the Adriatic Sea
Gonna take us years to get ourselves clean
Lafayette, New Orleans Soon to be another crime scene
Now we're just a ticking time bomb
another Uncle Tom, Its getting hard as hell to stay calm
When your country's done turned their head
Welcome to the Voodoo State full of walking dead!
All washed away All washed
Our Culture's getting washed away
