Stripped 03:31
Faceless enemy of the public. Unseen behind a screen. How many hours could you go without your phone? How many moments without accusing the unknown of travesties you don't care for in real life. Using reason of faith to cut like a knife. Anyone who disagrees AKA breathes. They argue about the second but, what about the first? We focus on weapons. They strip us of our words. Smoke screen. They'll take it all if they take all of our words. Ingrown agitation. The effect of a nation. All of the arguments. Disassemble the tension. Consistent indifference. If you're typing what you're yelling you will never be heard. Got to shout at the man if you want them to learn. If they push back the fact that we're not ok. Kissing their feet is not the game we'll play.

Wage 03:49
Another day another dollar Clenching our fists, grinding our teeth I really think we shouldn't bother Pulling this weight, doing this eight. Everyday is always the same Losing our homes, losing our names We've got to bite the hand that feeds, they are the wolves starving the sheep We've got to bite the hand that feeds, they are the wolves starving the sheep We're sick and tired of being sick and tired Doing the work, scraping for change Waiting for the day we get fired Doing the work, waiting for change I can't eat on your minimum wage Until they put me to rest, put this to shame Rather die than clock in another day Lose my head, gotta be a better way Work work all day long, watch the clock from dusk till dawn Work work all day long, watch the clock from dusk till...fuck You make a dollar, I make a dime Make sure I'm moving on the company time Mother fuckers act like I'm supposed to behave Work my fingers to the bone until I'm in my grave We've got to bite the hand that feeds, they are the wolves starving the sheep We're sick and tired of being sick and tired Doing the work, scraping for change Waiting for the day we get fired Doing the work, waiting for change Fuck what they say about American dreams and everything they do to follow that creed Struggling Working twenty four seven Slaves for the upper class greed Fuck what they say about American dreams Fuck what they say about American dreams.

No Virtue 02:54
Corruption thrives Force fed lies Bloated with the bullshit Blackened eyes, but when I go I bring the whole fucking curtain down. Empty your pockets everyday How much hard earned in collection plates I refuse to buy my way into the pearly gates Death is fate, it comes for us all Believe in myself I'm not afraid to fall Death is fate, it comes for us all Believe in myself I'm not afraid to fall Feed your greed Hide your lies You fooled me once I'm cutting these ties If I don't call you out then I'm to blame Threaten me with eternity If I don't call you out then I'm to blame I won't play your game I can't tolerate the way you collect Funds from the poor who have nothing left Funds from the ones who believed in you The worst part is this is nothing new Ages of money squandered We can't fix a system that damns the broke We can't fix a system that damns the broke

Self Help 03:18
We go through hell and back In hopes for something more We work our lives away to settle the score Is this really what we're put here for? I don't need this to consume me They turn a project into a property Drowning in debt until there's nothing left Take it for what it is and what it is is theft Enforce the youth, enforce the youth Choose what's best for you, what is best for you? Shovel out a large amount of greed Higher education wasn't what it seemed We just want to succeed We just need to afford to eat Enforce the youth, enforce the youth Choose what's best for you, what is best for you? We won't live to owe you We just need the chance to succeed We just want to afford to eat.

My Take 02:48
Go, The cut and sore on the back of the door. It makes me rethink what I stand for. Shovel thoughts through the four corner hell. You trick yourself to think you know how to be what you want to be. It takes more then your eyes can see. I know what I need but, you won't help me. I know what I need. Why can't this be for me? K.I.S.S.I.N.G At the feet of acceptance. All but illusions. This shit isn't easy. How does one become something. I'm in this room again. Staring at walls made of friends. Why can't I write anything new for them. Accept me. Listen to us. Why are you too good for this? Giving my all to this facade. This is my take. Why does it feel wrong? Giving my all to this facade. This is my take. Why does it feel so wrong? Speak when spoken to a term I never learned. It's too late. You're a fake. I feel I fell short. Don't try to step up, they'll only push back. It's all about experience and you don't have my back. I am defensive. This is depressing. Not very flattering. Fuck this industry. I am defenseless This is a game of greed. This is depressing. Fuck what this does to me. Fuck what this does to me.

They'll come for you, they always do. Wonder why we riot in the streets. You and lies caught between the sheets. When law flirts with opinions, you become unjust. Systematic, no integrity, hateful neglecting. Violent lust, bullies with cuffs. It's you we can't trust. Protect your own, it's you versus us. Violent lust, bullies with cuffs. It's you we can't trust. Protect your own, it's you versus us. They'll come for you, they always do. Comply or die is how you're living your life. How can we trust with all the lies. Comply or die Comply or die They'll come for you, they always do. Street goons, boys in blue. They'll come for you, They always do. Street goons, boys in blue. Violent lust, bullies with cuffs. It's you we can't trust. Protect your own, it's you versus us. Violent lust, bullies with cuffs. It's you we can't trust. Protect your own, it's you versus us. Blue code of silence, I'll paint it red. Before you detain me or leave me for dead. Do it! credits
