Worst Case Scenario
02:14
|
|||
Everywhere you turn
You're not reassured
you've just confirmed what is the worst case scenario
As you watch your world explode
You can't make a case
Or erase
What's been eroded and defaced
Your reality has been replaced
And every spoke word that inspired has been spent
Or forgotten or has lost its true intent
Searching for some common ground
Trying but you can't make any sense
This collective insanity
That's penetrating you and me
You get caught up in the current so helplessly
This collective insanity
The infection spreads indiscriminately
Has put a stake in what we could be

Simplify And Divide
02:08
|

Do you have a free range mind?
Or do you keep your thoughts locked in a cage?
Do you buy into the left and right?
What values do you hold and do you question your beliefs?
There is a war
The battlefield is your mind
The idea is to control your perceptions
Influence your behaviors and your actions
Simplify and divide
How do you identify?
Simplify and divide
Can you find the truth and look inside?
Do you have a free range mind?
Or do you walk through this world blind?
Do you dare to question and find your eye?
Or will you let them choose until you die?

Excuses
03:22
|
|||
You're so naive
You'll believe
Anything that's on your screen
Regurgitate, the fear and hate
That keeps you numb and sedate
I'll pose a question you'll shoot it down
Before it ever leaves the ground
Without consideration or debate
You'll always make excuses
No matter what the truth is
You'll sing along
With the state
To a song the inebriates
Freedom of thought and expression
And the right to question
You'll tow the line
And be sublime
Trapped in your own paradigm
You'll always find a way to erase

Individual
02:24
|

I'm not a conservative or liberal
I'm and individual
Not going to fall for division my decision
I will not comply and I'll think for myself
I will not commit myself to a cell
My mind and my body is under my control
You will not invade you will not corrupt my soul
And I'll think my own way and not fall for the games
Because I'm and individual
My decision, no division
And I'm not going to listen to a word that they say
Because I'm and individual, my decision no division
NPR, CNN, Fox news MSN
All bullshit propaganda transmission
Big Pharma owned they're just slaves to the beast
They're reading off the script hit control alt delete
Are you a human preparing for defeat
It's time to wake up and get back on your feet

Lesson
02:53
|
|||
You've been lied to you've been cheated
You've been dragged down in the dirt
Angry and defeated, with nowhere left to turn,
You've been shouting and demanding, but no one heard your words
You watched the train fall off the tracks
And there's no way of turning back
Hindsight is 20/20
This will never happen again
Haven't we learned our lesson?
Short-term memories do you really serve us that well
We've become what we've most hated
And we'll silence those who dare to question
We can't seem to brake this wicked spell
Falling headfirst into a trap
And there is noway of turning back

Those Old Problems

Those Old Problems
Will be forgotten
I can't be troubled
To try and solve them
They've sunk so far below
Labeled non-priority
The tide of life has shifted
Just trying to navigate these seas
The storm is brewing
It's time to batten down the hatch
Strange how this future
Has neatly buried up my past
Someday I will return
To try and face these forgotten scripts
But right now humanity is haunting
Like some fucked up ritual
So I'll pack up my supplies
The essentials for the trip
I'm trying to survive
And see where we end up after this

Sins
02:21
|
|||
Take a rewind, take a trip back in time
Take a step back and see
Who you once were and the struggles you endured
And the things you used to believe
The allies that you've made and the way that you behaved
Is that where you stand now?
Do you remember all the sins that you've done?
Have you ever felt shame, have you ever pointed blame?
And were you ever proven wrong?
Have you ever felt regret that was hard to admit?
That you've never faced at all?
Did you learn something new that changed your point of view
That made you who you are?
Do you remember all the sins that you've done?
Is there a hypocrite inside that you hoped you could hide
And some knowledge you regret?
Is there a reason or excuse you ignore your own truth?
Or did you just forget?
Sometimes it takes time for us to leave it behind
But it's harder the longer you wait
Do you remember all the sins that you've done?

Crying Shame
02:48
|
|||
It's a crying shame
But who's to blame?
We all passed the torch, that burned that corpse
It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame
When we don't follow our own heart
We've dropped our arms
Snoozed our alarms
It's a crying shame
I see my hometown struggling
Suffocating in this siege
And I see the glaring issues
Yet we stand and watch them bleed
Begging for a sentiment of understanding and piece
I can't believe
We're falling into a coma
Ripped from reality
Placed our faith in these false idols
As we're brought down to our knees
Bling we keep on buying the solutions to their schemes
I can't believe
We pay homage to these fairy tales
And carry these false flags
We'll ignite the streets with our anger
And scorch our common stance
The enemy is watching, as we unfold their plan
I can't believe

Choices
01:48
|
|||
The only reason that I'm here
And not where I want to be
Is because the choices that I've made
The choices that I've made
And I'm not going to blame
Anyone but me
For the choices that I've made
For the choices that I've made
There won't be excuses, I won't turn back
From the reality that's plain to see
I won't ignore the facts
I won't step back, get back on track
And I'll learn from my mistakes
The wrong turns and mishaps
It's hard to look, to look inside
And realize that you're the reason
That you're struggling with your life
But once you confide, you'll turn the tide
You'll turn the tide

10. |

I like to meddle in the art of self destruction
I like to see how close I get to the edge
I take a glimpse to see the distance to the bottom
And I count on my reflexes, to keep myself from falling
And I wish I could watch my own death
My mind is pointing in so many different directions
The grass is greener always wanting something else
Life is short, and I always hear my calling
I always want to answer, but I always keep on falling
I always want to answer but I always keep on falling
Always second guessing
Repealing and disorder
Always what's appealing is something you should not take
Who made this stupid rules?
And who expects me to obey them?
Just want to fill desires
And expect not to repay them
Without no fine or consequence

Motivated
02:06
|
|||
Some people say I'm lucky
I just say I'm motivated
Never make excuses for my failures or my status
Never ceasing or subsiding
No vacation or hiatus
You got a plan you got a vision?
One thing that school had taught me is that this world full of liars
That we live in a broken system and you can't trust in your providers
You got to start stepping, take control of your situation
Never trust the politicians or the corporations that enslave them
I don't need your pittance, you will not have my subjugation
No slave to this system no allegiance to this nation
I'll take what is mine and protect my friends and family
Making good connections, invest in my community
People say you're crazy even when you're proven right
We all hate to see reality and what it's really like
But the truth can be infections you got to open up your mind
Stop creating this division, we're running out of time
Start thinking for yourself, start keeping what you earn
Stop relying on this system and you'll stop getting burned
Break free from this illusion, enjoy the fruits of your labor
Start acting like a human rid yourself of this behavior
