lyrics

ain’t nobody reign over me
I’m the definition of free
you can do whatever you want
just keep it to yourself and you good bro
everybody doing their thing
why would I tell you how to live
go and do whatever you do
but I don’t wanna live by your rule
so don’t tread on me

don’t tread on me, on me
no I ain’t your property
and all your laws decree
possession is all you see
don’t tread on me, on me
my life is my own worry
don’t tread on me, believe
if you do you gonna see what I mean

what we gonna do when they win
when all the crazy people get in
they’re gonna try to say how we live
but I don’t wanna be just a number
I don’t care what you believe
as long as it stays a belief
cuz once you try to put it on me
we’re gonna have a problem believe me
don’t tread on me

don’t tread on me, on me
no I ain’t your property
and all your laws decree
possession is all you see
don’t tread on me, on me
my life is my own worry
don’t tread on me, believe
if you do you gonna see what I mean

just go ahead and
try and take my rights away
come and take my speech away
if you come and take my soul away
then you’re gonna see what I mean
don’t tread on me

your crazy thoughts are fine inside your head
your rules fall flat on we who are well-read
wake up before the sun come sets on us
freedom was never stolen in a day
don’t tread on me

Mayaenova Austin, Texas

Jam-packed with juicy 60s drum samples, spicy 70s-style bass licks, and caustic Bernie-cratic lyrics decrying the rampant income and wealth inequality ever since, DONOR REPUBLIC is a 20-song ode to freedom from corporatism, crony capitalism, and the corrupt political system in which we live. ... more
