Nation of One

I’ve had it with presidents

i’m done with the news

i’m finished with governments

you know they give me the blues

i’m weary of conspiracy theories

When the simplest answer is true

And when identity becomes escapism 

That’s a subscription that self-renews

Also i’ve had it with you

i’m not in charge of your happiness

it ain’t no fun

i don’t want to be trapped in this

wanna be a nation of one
Oh oh oh oh
I wanna be
A nation of one
Oh oh oh oh
I wanna be a
Nation of one

I’m done with white noise

and proud boys 

And god-given killing toys

and fascist divinity

i’m over cancel culture virtue vultures
Profiteering victimhood and toxic femininity

Can we incinerate the tik-tok houses

by the thousands

influencers might allow us 
to watch them burn for free

if the content i provide ain't nothing new 

Well i’m content to blame you

And i think that we’re through

We are like siblings at best

it ain’t no fun

When we kiss it’s like incest 

I wanna be
A nation of one

oh oh oh oh
I wanna be
A nation of one
Oh oh oh oh I wanna be a nation of one

I wanna secede from this union

Fission is better than confusion

we’ve come to the natural conclusion

Of late stage capitalism

new age socialism

Polyamorous anarchism

I think i’m having an aneurism 


A soft breeze used to strum our bodies

Like a guitar
the sun lay its head on our knees

we were so near and yet so far

We survived every disease

i hope that god sees all the good that we have done

But every time it was you that i pleased

Now i wanna be
A nation of
One to wake when i want

two to eat at restaurants

Three to fuck whom i will

Four to have no one to kill
im talking
Five to cry at a movie alone

six to raise my very own clone

seven to give him everything when i’m done

oh yes i want to be
A nation of one

oh oh oh oh
I wanna be
A nation of one...
