Gonna Find You Lyrics

Back in school you ever get busted for trying to walk and have some administrator tell you "Son you can struck your obligations and try to be different from your peers but responsibility of future is"
(Chorus) - gonna find you gonna find you gonna find you gonna find you
Well I saw this kid get beaten down because he was out of luck
In the lottery of acceptance in the school of growing up.
Saw a bunch of convicts doing time inside a cage,
Got locked in factories within the school of paid wage.
(Chorus)
Saw this boy so strung out that his body sweats and shakes from his field education in the school of cheap escape.
Got told the school of human thinking teaches only truth
and one of its educations is gonna find you
(Chorus)
Saw a civilization where grabbing onto wealth was the only guarantee of freedom peace and health.
Dollar sign value system upheld as the truth,
and if you can't find a place it's gonna find you.
Saw the paranoid response to all of the examples
of the ones that don't fit in this way of living getting trampled.
Success is obedience to a structured way of life, you can't ignore the structure because we're all within its sight!
(Chorus)

a song about gettin' with the program in the country where 'freedom peace and health' , truth as well as most other values are either availble to and denied by those who made quest for money their life purpose.

btw in the intro he doesn't say "of future", he says "your future"

Jesse's a fucking genius, I can't think of one Operation Ivy song that doesnt have awesome lyrics. IT's amazing, most people 60 years old could'nt think up of lyrics like this, and Jesse did it when he was in his teens.
