May I strongly suggest we review our initiatives? We’re like dead animals
on the side of the road being crushed by a million cars until our organs fall apart
Guess what? It’s not that compelling when there’s so much injustice everyday
Our decay - their control. We’re still just kids, get a spanking when we disobey
So breach out
All your efforts were so damn well intended
Breach out
there’s lack of recognition in this fight
When alternatives ain’t far away
It’s getting pretty hard to turn our heads the other way
But we’re battle-born now DIY is game and we should play
Guess what? It’s not that compelling when there’s so much injustice everyday
Our decay - their control. Were still just kids get a spanking when we disobey
So breach out
All your efforts were so damn well intended
Breach out
Majorities are breaking bad inside
When alternatives ain’t far away
it’s getting pretty hard to turn our heads the other way
But we’re battle-born now DIY is game and we should play
And damned we should play
Yeah we’ll find a way

Is making profit all that matters out there?
Feel like a child screaming this is no fair
Overlooking all the consequences don’t care
And it’s so attractive to be unaware
Or are we gonna bash it in?
‘Cause your protection, their responsibility
Both won’t be found in companies or creeps you vote for
‘Cause the insurance, food and health care industry
Build systems where improvements just ensure we’re going nowhere
GPS advertisement just took over
Your pants are down and they bend you over
Genetic vegetables a fierce maneuver
Our policy excess: their four leaf clover
All the information makes me so hungover
But we’ll flush it out, no nine to five mentality
‘Cause your protection their responsibility
Both won’t be found in companies or creeps you vote for
‘Cause the insurance, food and health care industry
Build systems where improvements just ensure we’re going nowhere

Prodigy

While he’s searching what its all about
A million choices, nothing’s standing out
And now the turmoil keeps him up at night
Cash and student in, debt and graduate out
But education should be curiosity
It’s always asking why and finding your own prodigy
He’s got a closet full of paradigms
They will never see the light of day
‘Cause the door stays closed
They just let him drown
Text books have bogged him down
He doesn’t know where he’ll belong now
But education should be curiosity
It’s always asking why and finding your own prodigy
So let him wake up when its making sense a little more
And he knows when it’s fucking wrong and all the concepts of what its based on
So when he drops out and shakes off all the chains he’ll scream yolo
Let him sail into the great unknown

Escape

Sick commercials on a frantic screen
And it feels like your whole life is like watching the fast and the furious number six:
it ain’t easy, as dumb and pointless as five
Buy a million likes, this world is all about appearance but it’s alright
Reveal the bullshit, strip the lie
And never give up the fight
(so long)
If I can never escape
(hangin on)
Or rearrange
(control)
The cover ups and the chaos, our instincts will lead the way
We’ll never give up the fight
If I can never escape
Or rearrange
We are experienced enough to know when it ain’t honesty
If I can never escape
Or rearrange the cover-ups and the chaos, our instincts will lead the way
Less work and more play

Collateral

Every time you point one finger at someone realize three are pointed at yourself (but what does your thumb point at?)
Expectation mostly causes demise, sweeps relations off the shelf
The taxes feed the troops and the disgrace that destroys environment
Nature decides how it prosecutes this case until we give a shit but then it´s
Too late to blame it on a generation dead and buried mocked and gone
Re-elect a monster, blame someone
How could we ever know
The information was on google but the wifi’s slow
Now reproduce in millions, educate them all
Our offspring’s welfare will be used as our collateral
Every time you point one finger at someone realize three are pointed at yourself
Expectation mostly causes demise, sweeps relations off the shelf
And too late to blame it on a government you voted for yourself
All the information was right there
How could we ever know
The information was on google but the wifi’s slow
Now reproduce ourselves in millions let them take the fall
Our offspring’s welfare will be used as our collateral

There's killers on the loose in this neighbourhood,
so keep your doors locked tight
Hide all your jewelry in cardboard containers and start killing all the lights
Then watch the darkest night fall over us and see them sweeping in
The only thing that can save you now is accepting you will never win
So I'll just close my eyes and throw down
all the best cards up my sleeve
Cause my loss aversion had 15 years to affect what I achieve
I won't be settling anymore now
Until everything is gone
Gone until the break of dawn.
Morning has broken and everything‘s different,
Stare down the barrel of pearl handled pistols
In violin cases and holsters of gold, they took us for a ride
They took it all away last night, but a part of me returned
Accepted loss, gained more. It was the best I ever really earned
So I'll just close my eyes and throw down
all the best cards up my sleeve
Cause my loss aversion had 15 years to affect what I achieve
But I won't be settling anymore now
Until everything is gone
Gone until the break
And truth will be told, we're getting old
We’re choosing pennies over gold
And social decay, forgetting the only risks
Are in the hands we fold
And with our eyes set down the road
Turn these yellow bricks to gold
Am I aware enough to see the new reality?

Tunnel Vision

Ignorance caught up with you, you made the fall
All your believes were temporary bullshit after all
Like a blind berzerker in a herd of monkey’s crashing into a wall
You’ll never blame yourself and rather burn it down
Now keep your thoughts at bay
Unleash the beast in your head
No delusion, it is the message we convey
And throw it all away
Don’t leave your options shattered
Ain’t it obvious that your verve is in decay
Cause your destructive narrow-minded believes are pestilence
You’ll always shoot the opportunity to make it stop
Forever hide your dreams, thoughts, fears..just scrape the cover off
You’ll never blame yourself
You rather burn it down
Now keep your thoughts at bay
Unleash the beast in your head
No delusion, it is the message we convey
Throw it all away
You’re stuck in tunnel vision
Until your life is displayed
If you’re stuck in repetition, then break the rut ‘cause life won’t wait

Get To The Chopper

On my own again
As if I was unemployed but with good settlements. Too lazy to apply in this weak economy
I must come off as deranged and juvenile, drowned.
Push away and reconcile
I should abduct all my friends ‘cause they all formed a family / stay home
A “normal” life? It makes me wonder, but do I really wanna know?
Enough with the demolition. I damn well know, can’t make it alone
And I found out that most relationships are about the changes you make and letting go
What am I holding on to ‘cause nothing’s the same anymore
Now all the turbulence makes me sick
but still makes me feel at home
I fucking lost it again
As if I am unemployed with decent settlements, too lazy to apply
I should burn / simply destroy my escape plan blueprint 9/11 style
Jaded by the loss after a while
But the darkness will go away ‘cause I can turn the lights on
It’s hard to give myself away ‘cause I’m all that I own
I am all I own

This fucking disease is sweeping through our city's streets
The street light halos are all I see
But their bloodshot eyes are just too bright: they’re burning in my back
I feel this whole town is preying on me
I gotta get away from here now
And I thought I was the one supposed to save you
But I can't get through them no matter what I do
So I burn all of their bridges down
Get the hell out of this town
See them burning in the rear view mirror and drive away.
So I leave it behind, but I know I'll be back around someday
To search the city, to try and find you
As I walk around I realize, I can't turn back the clock
I count my losses, and start the engine.
I gotta get away from here now
When I thought I was the one supposed to save you
But I can't get through them no matter what I do
So I burn all of their bridges down
Get the hell out of this town
See them burning in the rear view mirror and drive away.
When I thought I was the one supposed to save you
(so I just drive away from everything)
But I can't get through them no matter what I do
(And follow highways till the ocean blue)
So I burn all of their bridges down
Get the fuck out of this town
See them burning in the rear view mirror and drive away.

Human Nature

Determined to raise your kids right
Don’t practice what you preach inside
Your household is a violent muppet show
It’s like you woke up in an abandoned flight
Expected someone by your side
But feel like you are doing this alone
Mother nature just wants to be left alone
Genetic relapse started hundred years ago
We procreate a lot but seem to fail in taking good care of our own
Which will be passed on
On welfare, addicted but kids seemed right
You wanted to get up when they cried
But got distracted by your mobile phone
And did you ever give it a thought
Apathetic reproduction from the start
a course of nature or your own?
The environment wants to be left alone
Genetic relapse started hundred years ago
We procreate a lot but seem to fail in taking good care of our own
‘Cause mother nature just wants to be left alone
Genetic relapse started hundred years ago
We procreate a lot but seem to fail in taking good care of our own
Which will be passed on

Your Own Broadway

How can you call this “your” country everyday?
What did you do for it besides joining the N.R.A?
How can you call this your homeland?
It’s a stage in your own Broadway
Your territory where just your kids may grow
A piece of planet, why YOU own it still remains unknown
How can you call this - like sitting shotgun in a van you drive alone
You found confidence in borderlines and in labeling every race
And now your source for hating immigrants and your fear keep up the pace
Deep inside your narrow mind
You’re gonna get another thing coming
We’ll erase the border lines
While the pole ice melts we watch the tides
You’ll be the refugee
How can you call this “your” country everyday?
What did you do for it besides just being born in vein?
How can you call this your homeland?
It’s a stage in your own Broadway
Your territory where just your kids may grow
Where your ancestors killed a race so you can call it home
How can you call this - like sitting shotgun in a van you drive alone
We watch the tides
You’re gonna get another thing coming
You may open up your big surprise
We’ll erase the border lines
You’re the refugee
You’re m.c.d.d
You’re the leprosy of a better world
We’re in your zone
Now we’re all front row, staying seated, laughing at your show
