Expressionless, you useless fucking moron standing to the side
Criticize anyone with any passion
Eyes glazing over with a film of “I don’t care”
Its all just an elaborate joke, obstructing the oppressed just because you weren’t provoked
A helping hand for the knife headed for your throat
So what’s it gonna be?
Throwing punches
Or decorating boots with your teeth
And I’m so fucking tired of the system built to crush us
And all you weakling bastards suppressing all our progress
You think they're on your side? Your corpse is just another buffer
Only thing in our way is you servile scum suckers
25 already jaded, is it ignorance or malice?
Do-gooder derogation
There’s no purpose your life’s work is worthless
Dissidence, you fucking toadies

So now it’s all about heritage, like we don’t know what you really mean right?
Resentment germinates and the weak turn to hate
Dig your head from the sand, draw a line where it stands and now I’m gonna make you choose
Fuck You
Dog whistles turn to megaphones as you fight tooth and nail to board up every house you stole
There won’t be shaking hands, no respect for your faux open minds
When peace to you means to death to me, you’ve chosen your side
And I don’t care how long you hide behind free speech
You are my enemy
With what you said, do you know what it really meant
From where you stand you cant just take it back
Pragmatic solutions fail, and now you’ve crossed a line
Hate begets hate and pure blood still spills the same
You only show your face with bullets and numbers
Coward

“This generation…” (Shut Up)
“In my day…” (Shut Up)
“You don’t know...: (Shut Up)
“Learn respect” (Shut Up)
“Know your place” (Shut Up)
“You don’t know” (Shut Up)
You’re pushing the goalposts on who gets to be right. With your rose tinted view of a fucked up time. Spreading nonsense about equal sides when you know the golden mean is a bullshit lie.
You’re such a fucking diplomat for cognitive dissonance. With or against, black and white. Reductive reasoning to justify, you don’t care as long as your sides winning right?

Ive already seen the mangled corpse of the American dream.
Another point of control, they feed us meals ground from our bones
And all those fucking lies they told on what we could achieve (And what we're worth)
Our collective Sisyphus suffers from Olympic greed
“Ive got mine and fuck you if you want yours too, and I will say you just haven’t yet paid your dues”
Who’s to blame for the life you stole?
The young? The poor? Wage slaves who cant afford their food
A high tide raises all ships and with concrete bootstraps we built the ships and we’re still told we cant afford to board
And you’ve taken all you can take
Pity that busy monster, forget who you are just so you can consume

When push comes to shove.
Not where you wanna be, you let it get to you.
You revel in the pain reminiscing of your youth.
To avert, to hide, you cower in your bed supine.
Feel the future disappear in your room, like there’s nothing left to fucking do
Recursive thoughts of self hate, making sure you don’t change
The burden of comfort singing the same old fucking songs
Strength in changing what I know, I will force control
Staring at the walls waiting for the paint to change
Crumbling joints, you say its your age as you waste away doing nothing everyday
Complacent
Your weakness
Face it
No other way
Short-term dopamine, prolonging your agony
No failing, no waiting, no time left, no other way
