Assimilate
I just want to find my place
Everyone is watching me
And it will never be good enough
Self worth nearly depleted
Downtrodden but not defeated
I've had enough
Won't be measured by vanity
Your mindless exclusivity
Has taken its toll on me
I won't be who you want to see
Fearful to show a hint of honesty
I've had enough
Won't be measured by vanity
Your mindless exclusivity
Has taken its toll on me
I’ve had enough
Saving face

Funeral Dirge
01:32
|

I stare down into the earth
Open grave funeral dirge
Will I descend into the maw
Knowing simply that I followed the law
No comfort while the suffering persists
No rest while the nameless resist
What's another kid dead in the streets
While you’re dreaming in gilded sheets
"Never mind the cattle,
born into the slaughter"
We'll turn the phrase when we
Hold them under water
I won’t entertain you
The fucked up way
You see through
Human suffering
Like it is nothing
I won’t entertain you
The fucked up way you lie
Turn a profit
while the innocent die
Stare down into the earth
Open grave funeral dirge
Will I descend into the maw
Knowing simply that I followed the law

Grit your teeth and
Turn the other cheek
At the face of injustice
You sit there with a smile
The attitudes don't change
And the cycle continues
You have a voice but
You won't let it resonate
Open your eyes
What's it going to take
You're at their mercy
Waiting for change
Spineless
You're a sniveling coward
You'll take this to the grave
Open your eyes
What's it going to take
You're at their mercy
Waiting for change
You'll never atone for
The fear in your bones
You’ll take this to the fucking grave
Grit your teeth and
Turn the other cheek
At the face of injustice
You sit there with a smile
The attitudes don't change
And the cycle continues
You have a voice but
You won't let it resonate
You're nothing but a fucking coward

No truce
No surrender
No humanity
They're teaching you to think
They're teaching you to breathe
They will wipe you clean
Of the plague of your mind
No truce
No surrender
No humanity
No sanction
In this administration
Fearmongering tragedy
They're teaching you to think
They're teaching you to breathe
They will wipe you clean
Of the plague of your mind
Thieves and grifters
Watch you wither
This world is wrought with
Corpses of our kind
You are exploiting the weak
By fabricating their needs
Drink it up
Drink it up
Drink it up
Your influence is vile
This is a cancer that breeds
Drink it up
Drink it up
Drink it up

Salt of the Earth
01:20
|
|||
No heart and
No spine
Corruption
Defined
Deranged and
Elite
The weak minded
Kiss your feet
You think you’re the
Salt of the earth
Dead ideals
Prove your worth
Decline and
Decay
Destroy the white crusade
You don't care if they die
Unborn over black lives
A child ripped from their mother
Your future drained of
Color
Greatness never was
Greatness will never be
Greatness never was
Greatness will never be

Stay In Line
01:20
|

In a world that
Tells us that we're wrong
All the places
We don't belong
You'll never understand
You think it sounds better
Coming from a man
Imaginary rights
Censor what you don't like
You don't keep us safe
It's such a fucking waste
Imaginary rights
Don't want to see you cry
So quick to point the finger
But where's your helping hand
Shut your mouth
Stay in line
Keep quiet
Pretend you're fine
You have to
Prove yourselves
We won't be silenced
We'll go out kicking and screaming
In a world that
Tells us that we're wrong
All the places
We don't belong
You'll never understand
'Cause you think it sounds better
Coming from a man

Dying to live
Suffer to succeed
It’s a charade
Devised in a boardroom
To mislead
Clock in to a lifetime in shackles
Bear witness to the profit of sin
Capital is the god that they worship
Do you feel proud
Of the cycle you’re in
Dying to live
Suffer to succeed
Dying to live
Suffer to succeed
It’s a charade
Devised in a boardroom
To mislead
Turn out your pockets
And burn
