Skanking Pickles

[Intro]
They twisted the meaning, flipped the script,
“Justice” is vengeance, and “freedom” got ripped.
Truth is a product, facts stink like lies,
May we be skankin’ like old French fries

Step left, step right, we’re all complicit,
Caught in a skanking pickle yet no one admits it.

[Verse 1 – bouncy & biting]
They say it’s justice, but it’s just revenge
Truth’s gone wilding on a power binge
They say freedom, but hey, not for all
Just smokescreens while big black boots fall

Idiot games with a censored beat
March with a muzzle on a crooked-ass street
It’s all rebranded, coated in spittle,
And now we dance in a skanking pickle!

[Chorus – call and response with bounce]
Skanking pickle! Words gone slick
Skanking pickle! Truth’s been tricked
Skanking pickle! Minds go fickle
Lost in the riddles of a Rorschach pickle

[Verse 2]
They call it merit, but the votes were rigged
Praise law and order before graves get digged
They Preach unity when they mean: obey
Forget what’s civil while they jail our say

Peace means silence, respect means “hush”
Woke is a slur now, ain’t that lush?
A dance floor of doublespeak, fake and fickle,
We’re skankin’ through sludge in a smirking pickle

[Bridge – psychedelic dub breakdown]
If we don’t define words
They will use ‘em like swords
If we let meaning slide
We’re letting the truth snide
Let’s please wrangle, bless the wiggle
In the heat of a skanking pickle…

(Skanking pickle… pickle… skanking pickle…)

[Verse 3]
They market truth like a mood or brand
Gaslight the masses with a toxic wand
Accountability gets lost in spin
Reform means nothin’ but a greedy grin

It’s a bootleg glossary in disguise
Where freedom of speech just multiplies lies
A syncopated riddle hella not civil,
Let’s pray kind kids can find a true skanking pickle

[Final Chorus]
Skanking pickle! We dance through gas
Skanking pickle! It’s Orwell with sass
Skanking pickle! Say it clear, no trickle
If we can’t sing it… we’re just skanking pickles!

[Outro ]
Oh brother let’s Define it…
Or we all shall drown in it.
Skanking hilarity yo
Blessing morality bro
