Lyrics:
Listen here I’ve got to tell you, how things will unfold.
In silent denial, nothing’s ever clear.
Are we the last defense now?
How are we gonna come through?
This is not an attempt for, vindication of us all.
Tempted by the rush of adrenaline.
Addicted to the crushing silence amidst the throng.
Memorize the same spoon-fed so called truths your parents choked on.
Populism, populism.
Populism is the thief of values once pure.
Opiated we have driven the development to a halt.
Backwards forward halt all development.
Belligerence, overtly powerless male dominance.
Who has given you the right to rule?
Who has given up their place to your inane self deviant ignorance?
Don’t tempt me; I’m ready to blow.
This is less than I’ve ever wanted for anyone.
Don’t touch me, I’ll fucking explode!
You won’t step to me as you have stepped on them!
Suppress all will to create a place
where tolerance, mindfulness and empathy rules.
Denying what is obvious,
believing victory’s at hand.
What victory?
Is it a war?
It’s a quest for equality!
Equal rights are the modern day civil rights movement.
You’re calling me a scab?
You’re the gender biased fucker calling the kettle black!
Backwards forward halt all development.
Belligerence, overtly powerless male dominance.
Backwards forward halt all development.
Belligerence, overtly powerless male dominance.
Cleanse the world.
Cleanse the word.
Tongues bereaved of all identity
have given birth to bastards long enough.
The problems caused: self evident and rank.
You can’t suppress an uprising of truth and thirst for freedom.
To explore arenas closed by prejudice and fear,
stupidity and nepotism by idiots second guessing and spinning the truth.
Cleanse the world.
Tongues bereaved.
A pose,
an empty pose,
Devoid of substance or a firm grasp of modern day reality.
Break all bonds
Crush the walls
Refute all lies
Break all bonds
Crush the walls
Refute all lies
Break all bonds
Crush the walls
Refute all lies
Refute all lies
Refute all lies
Refute all lies
