March of the Intellectuals

This nation is breaking, apologies for the taking

The outrage that they're faking, a civil war in the making

They fight the economy instead of letting us fix

Then scream hypocrisy if we manage to lift it

It's like they're trying to break us while telling us that they'll save us

Anti-colonial actions dividing people in factions

Persecuting responsible citizens like they're horrible

While holding up all criminals as those that are honorable

Celebrities standing on the graves of children

Authorities treating us like the villian

Politicians trying to disarm the citizens

Then tell another lie, tell another lie

Don't tell me Marx was right

He failed everything he tried in life

He's nothing but a failure

Don't tell me Marx was right

He failed everything he tried in life

He's nothing but a failure

 Look at the bigger picture, it's easy once your figure

that tearing down the free market enslaves their intended target

They think they know better than us cause Marx and Engels earned their trust

with a manifesto based on hate that divided people on a single trait

They promoted class warfare instead of celebrating success

The promoted collectivism instead of praising the best among us

While preaching unity and practicing segregation

Their bi-polar philosophy is destroying our nation

Think of the hypocrisy of creating a classless society 

with a single ruling class assigning each and every single task

They try to pretend it's freedom they sell in our schools

But it's just propaganda with elites making the rules

Celebrities standing on the graves of children

Authorities treating us like the villian

Politicians trying to disarm the citizens

Then tell another lie, tell another lie

Don't tell me Marx was right

He failed everything he tried in life

He's nothing but a failure

Don't tell me Marx was right

He failed everything he tried in life

He's nothing but a failure

**Recording Notes - I programmed the drums with my Zoom 234 drum machine and direct input recorded them.  For the distorted parts, I mic'd a Hughes & Kettner Warp 7 head and a generic cab with a Heil PR20 in Magix at my buddy Jeremy's.  I used a Schecter Diamond Series Damian 7-String.  I used the native distortion on the Warp 7 for one side, and Boss Metal Zone MT-2 for the other side.  For clean tone, I just direct line recorded in Pro Tools.  Recorded vocals with a Heil PR20 in Pro Tools.  For bass, I direct input an Epiphone EB-0 into Pro-Tools.
