Before the Sun Burns Out
01:08
|

I’ve never looked the sun in the face
And been filled with so much disgrace
I never thought for a second I’d cry
From so much anger welling inside
The world will keep spinning, let it spin
But not for our children, they’ll never win
We’ve already taken their time away
And while the earth rots, our body’s decay
Fill your pockets with their futures
Spoiling lives in their prime
You can’t take with you riches, wealth
You can only steal away their time
Every step we take towards death
Every look and every breathe
Rots our bodies and brings us down
Each day closer to the ground
You can’t delay your inevitable end
But generations will come again
Save your planet and remove their doubt
Let them live until the sun burns out

Over It
00:44
|

Production’s ceased, the gears have rusted
The entire process has been shut down
With no relevance at this time
There’s no profits left to be found
You’ve stopped making money and that’s a fucking problem
So you’re cutting it, pulling the plug
You’ve stopped making money and that’s a big problem
So you’re done
Finally stopped trying to get your shit together
Said you’re giving up, calling it quits
Finally stopped trying to get it together
Said you’re over it
Further debt
With no end
Toxic spirals
Around the bend
Draining you
And seeing red
Feels worse than holes
Inside your head
Bastards without evidence
Prey on your intelligence
Intentions with malevolence
Keep you tired
Keep you broke
Keep you down
Keep pushing you around

Preying on the poor, preying on the weak
Preying on the homeless, looking bleak
Praying up above for another slave
Offers of happiness and wealth
Offers of clarity, mental health
Offering your body and mind away
Sitting at a bus-stop in Florence Kentucky
A harbinger of evil comes up to you
“How are you doing? Are you alone?
Would you like to come watch our film?
I’ll take you anywhere you need to go,
You can tell your band all about it”
The viper she bites, while your guard is down
(The church will)
Kidnap You
Keep Cruise’s cash flowing in
Cover up Danny Masterson’s
Sexual assault “allegations”
The Church of Scientology will kidnap you
Keep the sex slaves flowing in
Hollywood’s ring of underage kids
Will we never see our family again?
The Church of Scientology will kidnap you

Dumpster Fire
01:36
|
|||
I’ve manifested a steady decline
All while trying to just unwind
The screws splinter and split the wood
And the ashes burn just like they should
Yet we all continue to conspire
Walking along the thinnest wire
A steady incline is the biggest liar,
An overwhelming dumpster fire
Shrouding them from the flames
Disguising others from the shit
Not smoldering, but out of control
Lies keep burning every inch
Embers capture everything around
The ash and smoke continuously astound
Not burning my body but shrouding my sight
Slowly engulfing my will to fight
The magma under, the ozone above
The struggle to rise when push comes to shove
The pavement will always be hanging around
When your steady ascent comes plummeting down

The Bomb You Throw
01:11
|
|||
No I won't be peaceful
I don't love my enemy
Centrists will tell you to love
The queer bashers in the streets
Don't be so damn hateful
Love trumps hate they say
Love won't get you freedom
I'll feed my fire my own way
The ones in charge don't care
About you, your friends, or me
They only want our silence
They only work for the elite
Don't be so damn hateful!
Love trumps hate they say
Love won't get you freedom
Anger is the only way
Use your anger
Stoke the fire
Use your anger
Be the bomb you throw
Use your anger
To fuel your fire
Use your anger
Be the bomb you throw
Don't be so damn hateful
Love trumps hate they say
Love won't get you freedom
Anger is the only way

Anxiety builds and it shoots down my spine
Our home is burning I'm losing my mind
Weight crushing down suffocation insues
When will the rich pay us what's due?
Plastics infest all the seafood you eat
Feed candy to livestock so your meat stays cheap
Can't trust any product you find in the store
Can't trust anything in this world anymore
The constant stress is melting my mind
feeling so helpless we've run out of time
The wool has been lifted from our tired eyes,
But was it in time to save our own lives?
"Everything is fine"
"Go on and live your life"
"Everything is fine"
I swear I'm not losing my mind
And they say that everythings fine
And they tell you to just live your life
Plastics infest all the seafood you eat
Feed candy to livestock so your meat stays cheap
Can't trust any product you find in the store
Can't trust anything in this world anymore

Ego tripping cowards
Qualified immunity
A taste for blood and power
How heartless can you be?
Meeting arrest quotas
To pack our prisons tight
They're just looking for free labor
So they dissolve human rights
Over 2 million people
Are locked up in the states
Over 2 million people
Work for nothing from a cage
White middle class just sits back
They don't give a shit
Racism and brainwashing
Is as American as it gets
Unpaid prison labor
Is modern slavery
Don't trust a single product
Made in the USA
Ego tripping cowards
Qualified immunity
A taste for blood and power
How heartless can you be?
Meeting arrest quotas
To pack our prisons tight
They're just looking for free labor
So they dissolve human rights

Federal Arms Dealer

Forever dependent on doom impending
Are those who profit from military spending
Hundreds of thousands of people employed
To build billions of dollars of government toys
Forever dependent on constant conflicts
Build racial tension to know where to start it
The fire keeps burning once it’s begun
When you’re supplying both sides with the guns
Corruption continues to grow from within
War after war keeps spreading us thin
The fighting won’t stop until you face the fact
That they continue to profit from defense contracts
Again and again and again and again and again
Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman,
Raytheon, and Boeing
100 billion in arms sales, constantly growing
Desensitized to constant wars, too many to even feel
When your government uses you to make the deal

Further Behind
01:17
|

Programmed
Destined to fail
Hard times
Keep growing stale
Loss
Of your clear mind
And you’re falling
Further behind
Your mental health starts breaking down
Your stability crumbles around
The chemicals holding up your brain
Clouding your thoughts, don’t feel the same
The drugs you take to kill the pain
Now are the reason for the blame
You try and stop but your sober mind
Has negative feelings all the time
Unable to support your fleeting life
Stuck outside and filled with strife
You’re homeless, but for their own wealth
Your state ignores your mental health
Programmed
Destined to fail
Hard times
Keep growing stale
Loss
Of your clear mind
And you’re falling
Further behind

Eighty-Six Twelve
01:32

Years pass by and you’re only going backwards
Their discretion’s just another liability
To every person harmed by poorly trained
Cops with qualified immunity
Misconduct protected by the law
Constantly handled irresponsibly
And “clearly established laws” excuse
Excessive police brutality
Shoot first think later
Doesn’t make sense
But their actions don’t
Have any consequence
With more interactions
Resulting in death
Public officials
Pushing their stakes
As long as they’re first
To make the mistake
How long’ll we excuse
The lives they take
Years pass by and you’re only going backwards
Their discretion’s just another liability
To every person harmed by poorly trained
Cops with qualified immunity
Misconduct protected by the law
Constantly handled irresponsibly
And “clearly established laws” excuse
Excessive police brutality
Power handled irresponsibly
Dismissing deadly force constantly
If you don’t stop police at the source
They’ll continue with no remorse

Sand Coffin
01:30

There's a lost connection
I'm under 50 feet of sand
I see all my happy friends
But still don't understand
Why it's just not clicking
Why I can't make it work
My mind is playing tricks on me
Now I'm the fucking jerk
I promise you I'm trying
I'm doing what I can
I want to talk and speak my mind
But my throat is full of sand
The waves keep crashing over me
I try to make it stop
I just want to break free
But I can't even talk
Nothing I do makes any sense
My head feels fucking rotten
I'd ask for help but you can't see
How much worse it's gotten
Isolation is the only way,
I can't make you worry
I can't connect or feel a thing
I know I need to hurry
No one can stop this but myself
No one can even hear me
I'll push myself up through the mire
I refuse to stay buried

Collective Power
00:44
|

Quickly now the tide is shifting
Dissent amongst the working class
The time is now to come together
Only united will we last
Cast away the ties that bind us
Don't waste this moment we must move fast
The time is now to come together
Only united will we last
They've warped our minds, they'll steal your soul
And sell it back in Golden foil
A poor man doesn't feel tied to his fate
He'll be rich someday if he waits
They've sowed the seeds of treacherous lies
And set us up for own demise
They can't stand up against our weight
Collective power must be our fate
Quickly now the tide is shifting
Dissent amongst the working class
The time is now to come together
Only united will we last
Cast away the ties that bind us
Don't waste this moment we must move fast
The time is now to come together
Only united will we last

19 years in the making
7 corporations granted all control
To "beautify" and gentrify
They bought the block, no plan of stopping
Pricing out and pushing back
Families forgotten and forsaken
Charles Luken orchestrated
This non profit built for profit
Gag order / Media blockade
Buying out / Any resistance
Gag order / Media blockade
No red tape to tangle through
Authority breeds complete control
To pick and choose who has the right
To use what should be public space
3CDC always scheming
For any reason to evict
Squeezing out small businesses
Monopolize the neighborhood
A Chicago company owns Cincinnati
Never paying any taxes
Granted ever mounting power,
A non profit built for profit

I'd kill myself
If I didn't have a choice
Forced into submission
Because they fucked away our rights
This has never been about life
They tugged at heartstrings
Built a loyal fan base
Fed them lies
Straight to the face
This has always been about hate
Fear increases every passing day
My life dictated by what they have to say
Another law set another person dead
Without a doubt I could be next
You run in circles
And hide from the truth
Keep swallowing the lie
That you have no proof
This has never been about you
They tugged at heartstrings
Built a loyal fan base
Fed them lies
Straight to the face
This has always been about hate
Fear increases every passing day
My life dictated by what they have to say
Another law set another person dead
Without a doubt I could be next
They'll force us back
You could be next
They'll force us back
I could be next
Fear increases every passing day
My life dictated by what they have to say
Another law set another person dead
Without a doubt I could be next

Downer Ending
02:55
|

I used to feel so hopeful
But now I'm not so sure
I feel so fucking powerless
To help the dying Earth
The world is fucking ending
And I feel so much rage
Remind yourself of all the shit
Ruining the world today
I can't tune out or turn away
I'll live my life in constant pain
How do you keep going?
Knowing soon will come the day
The ones who are responsible
Have fucking names and addresses
Why can't we just band together?
And put an end to all of this

Selfish

Selfish minds with selfish hate
Take hostage of the country's fate
How much more can we take?
Spread ignorance like toxic plague
How many more will end up dead?
It makes me fucking sick
