Prison Song
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
Following the rights movements you clamped on with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids
Following the rights movements you clamped on with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids
I buy my crack, I smack my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
Nearly two million Americans are incarcerated
In the prison system, prison system of the U.S.
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me to live in
Another prison system
Another prison system
Another prison system
For you and me
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons, you don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new non-rich
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons, you don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new non-rich
I buy my crack, I smack my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
The percentage of Americans in the prison system
Prison system has doubled since 1985
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me to live in
Another prison system
Another prison system
Another prison system
For you and me
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me
Oh baby, you and me
All research and successful drug policies show
that treatment should be increased
And law enforcement decreased while abolishing
mandatory minimum sentences
All research and successful drug policies show
That treatment should be increased
And law enforcement decreased while abolishing
Mandatory minimum sentences
Utilizing drugs to pay for
Secret wars around the world
Drugs are now your global policy
Now you police the globe
I buy my crack, I smack my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
Drug money is used to rig elections
And train brutal corporate sponsored
Dictators around the world
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me to live in
Another prison system
Another prison system
Another prison system
For you and me
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me
Oh baby, you and me
Significado de la letra
La canción 'Prison Song' de System Of A Down reflexiona de manera poderosa sobre el sistema penitenciario de EE. UU. y su relación con temas como la guerra contra las drogas, la encarcelación masiva y la corrupción política. La letra describe cómo las políticas represivas han llevado a una proliferación de drogas en las comunidades, con drogas baratas y disponibles que afectan especialmente a los jóvenes.
Se critica la dureza del sistema de justicia penal, que encarcela a una cantidad desproporcionada de personas por delitos menores, mientras que las políticas de drogas y las guerras se financian a expensas de los contribuyentes. Se cuestiona la efectividad de encarcelar a los adictos en lugar de proporcionarles tratamiento adecuado, abogando por un enfoque más humano y compasivo.
La canción también aborda la conexión entre el dinero de las drogas, las elecciones corruptas y el apoyo encubierto a regímenes dictatoriales en todo el mundo, planteando la hipocresía de las políticas globales de drogas y la financiación de conflictos armados a través del narcotráfico.
A través de un ritmo enérgico y letras contundentes, 'Prison Song' desafía al oyente a reflexionar sobre la injusticia y la opresión en el sistema penitenciario, abogando por un cambio significativo en las políticas de drogas y penales para crear un mundo más justo y equitativo para todos.
