misplaced
01:23
|
|||
misplaced priorities on rainbow coloured streets
you'll get everything you need to keep you fucking lost
they'll congratulate themselves with handshakes and smiles
another hundred died today
what will it be tomorrow ?
is this a life worth living ?
can we trust them anymore ?
is this a life worth living ?
we can't trust them anymore

election day molotov

|

fucking thieves
merchants of death
either selling out or buying in
spineless fuck with your empty words
time to pay your fucking debt
election day molotov
make them fucking pay
make them fucking pay

net worth

known to the cops since he was 13
now he gets no rest
his sister is fighting a war with herself
she is lost to the streets
his parents got high and disappeared for days
sometimes even weeks
hungry for love food and warmth
desperation takes it's toll
what's a life worth ?
what's the point in prison
when this life is punishment enough ?
what's the point in gratitude
when you've nothing to be thankful for ?
what's a life worth ?

i will go
01:56
|
|||
i heard a message that this was said and done
i heard somebody ask "which side are you on ?"
this is the summer when we turn it all around
in this war for our lives with so many taken down
i will go
the march of the destitute will echo through these halls
generations of chains will crumble into dust
if my mother was here
i'd tell her how i feel
about the young lives lost and the fire in our hearts
i will go
|
||||
5. |
after all of this
01:36
|
|||
there's a special place in hell
for the liars and deniers
when you see the broken souls on every city street
and you can't apologize for your bloody legacy
we're not begging anymore
because you are less than nothing
after all of this and still we have nothing
|
||||
6. |
unity of opposites
01:16
|
|||
you should save those tears
none are welcome here
until they only fall for you
once the terror sent
that was never meant
to be returned is received
|
||||
7. |
more than a threat
01:44
|
|||
when all we can do
is live to fight another day
all they know is hunger fear and war
and the lost and sick fill the streets
either dying on the frontline
or living broken in the shadows
life in service to their greed
there's no freedom while they live
we have to be more than a threat
|
||||
8. |
cease to exist
01:35
|
|||
without slavery
you'd have nothing
without injustice
you'd cease to exist
you protect yourselves
through blood and deception
the misery of billions
means nothing to you
creating revolution
with every life you take
seizing hope
from your hopelessness
creating revolution
seizing hope
|
||||

smarmy little fuck
00:19
|
|||
child of wealth and privilege
never fucking worked for anything
condescension is the rule
arrogant fucking shit
smile of a fucking snake
so you buy the fucking lies
that take you back to hell
again and again
smarmy little fuck
|
||||
10. |
armed to the teeth
01:19
|
|||
lie to yourself
delusions belong to the broken and defeated
freedom lives in everyone who refuses to be a slave
lock up the ones who's spirit is stronger than your empire
break the chains so everyone can live their fucking lives
all we want is freedom
all we need is the truth
and we're armed to the teeth
we're armed with the truth
|
||||
11. |
disbelief
01:28
|
|||
the death of culture
end of reason
entitled liars claim innocence
disbelief
in this world
born of blood and violence
a history of lies
ending in the same way
victims of your freedom
this world is ending
this world is over
|
||||

theory of contradiction

|
|||
as they count their dead
every word you've said
no longer breathes
next conference time
just drink the wine
sleep with who you choose tonight
they'll die with a part of me tonight
they'll die with a part of you
i am aware how much you're scared
to be seen as worthless too
when another school is bombed
and children's body parts fall upon unmarked graves
|

i hate oak bay
01:28
|
|||
blood money built the gated mansions
schools kept us blind and proud
denial lives in blackened hearts
anthems kill the victims' cries
wealth stolen from colonies and brought to new stolen land
everything they claim to love is built on death and hate
i hate oak bay
i fucking hate oak bay
i hate oak bay and everything they stand for
i hate oak bay and everything they are
|

undefeated
01:29
|
|||
sixteen bullets
seventeen years old
a child rests in peace
we prepare for war
undefeated
they lie and squeal
like the pigs they are
but we never surrender
our eyes are open now
undefeated
|

loss
03:01
|
|||
footsteps in the hallway
wheels on the concrete
serve to remind us of what we once held
so close so far
embedded in hearts
now the emptiness is too much to bear
we're all looking for love
searching for the answers
back to the beginning
are we asking the right questions ?
what could i have done?
where should i have been ?
would it have really changed anything ?
|
||||
16. |
same fucking song
01:42
|
|||
we've heard it before
the same old stories
lead in the water poison in the air
now border walls and children in cages
while the winners never question if the game is fair
we know what must change
we've known it all along
why are we still writing the same fucking song ?
frustration and misplaced anger
a rising tide of misery
cycle of abuse
stockholm syndrome
until the cage that you're in you can't fucking see
we know what must change
we've known it all along
why are we still writing the same fucking song ?
and when they speak of their twisted morals
i don't know who the fuck they're talking to
'cause i know it isn't me and i hope it isn't you

trumped
00:39
|
|||
house of suffering built on sand
where treason is a virtue
painting victims as aggressors
and aggressors as the victims
this will no longer stand
|
||||
18. |
never defeated
01:15
|
|||
a gun to your head
a boot on your neck
and they think we fucking surrender
try to crush us but just like palestine
victory is in our hearts
the taking of lives
imprisoning hope
with every move they fucking make
live in patriotic servitude
and live a hollow life
never forgotten
never defeated
their prisons will never silence us
|
||||
19. |
war to the knife
00:41
|
|||
blood on the streets
death on the sand
from chicago to palestine
no reasoning no compromise
there's just one thing they understand
and it's war to the knife
|
||||
20. |
safe
00:24
|
|||
bombs rain down in the name of freedom
your name on every fucking one
screaming mothers dying children
set your fucking house ablaze
why should you be safe?
your comfort's paid in blood
why should you be safe ?
no one's going home
|
||||
21. |
false promises
01:09
|
|||
in the streets where lives are lost
and they blame the silent victim
the blood of slaves still flows beneath their monuments to greed
decendants of another time
but nothing much has changed
from overseer to officer
they are paid for taking lives
promises were made and promises were broken
nothing stays the same and nothing's fucking changed
nothing's fucking changed
|
||||

wrong side of the law
01:52
|
|||
trigger happy cops
tearing up homes
if you know what i know
which side are you on ?
the only peace we have
is the silence of the grave
and there's only justice
when we take it for ourselves
i'm not on the wrong side of the law
the law's on the wrong side of me
|
||||
23. |
nothing else
00:24
|
|||
death on the street
says it's time
for revolution
to save our lives
nothing else
can save us
nothing else
