[English]

The propaganda is on every channel, they think we stupid like the truth is just too hard to handle.

But on your camo it's a culture war and load the ammo.

They want antifa ruling everything like it's Seattle,

and they want anyone who's fighting to be dead or cancelled.

They want rainbows in the classrooms,

and 15 different bathrooms, and white guys that hate black dudes.

They want war, they don't want peace,

they want fentanyl in our streets,

they want borders to be weak.

I swear the devil lives in California,

he a politician.

He passing bills that bring chaos and division.

Yeah, the devil lives in California,

should be in prison.

He got horns but he tries to keep them hidden.

'Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we don't play that, they say that,

they love America, we know it ain't that.

'Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we ain't with it, we ain't switching, y'all are tripping,

I guess God just built us different.

They get celebrities to do their talking,

they get mansions while they cram us all into apartments.

Tell us it's cool to stay in school and then make you retarded.

If you ain't liberal, then they treat you like you human garbage.

If you speak up then you a target.

They want their voice through an amplifier,

violence and our flag on fire,

no voter ID required.

They want war, they don't want peace,

they want defund the police,

they want you surrounded by screens.

The devil lives in California,

he a politician.

He passing bills that bring chaos and division.

Yeah, the devil lives in California,

should be in prison.

He got horns but he tries to keep them hidden.

'Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we don't play that, they say that,

they love America, we know it ain't that.

'Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we ain't with it, we ain't switching, y'all are tripping,

I guess God just built us different.

Dog, the devil is a Democrat.

That's a fact, that's a truth.

Look how bad that it gets when it's blue,

the devil is a Democrat.

That's a rap, it ain't news.

And the way they treat America is proof.

I swear the devil lives in California,

hundred dollar bills.

He knows everyone in Hollywood and parties in the hills.

Give you everything you ever wanted plus a couple mil for your soul.

And your vote, it's a deal.

'Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we don't play that, they say that,

they love America, we know it ain't that.

'Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we ain't with it, we ain't switching, y'all are tripping,

I guess God just built us different.

Cause the devil is a Democrat.

And we don't play that, they say that,

they love America, we know it ain't that.

The devil is a Democrat.

And we ain't with it, we ain't switching, y'all are tripping,

I guess God just built us different.
