Illusion
02:15
|

Boots stomp in the streets of
The systematically obsolete
Breeding a machine
On the backs of their needs
We must forgive the individual
And condemn the system
Patriotism is poison
A tool to justify
The violence in the streets
And the death raining
From the skies
Ideals of liberty
Repurposed for profit
A perfect citizen
Mans the turret
Or the cockpit
Two names on the ticket
Two nails on the casket
This is all an illusion
They never had a fucking choice
Forced to die for their oppressor
And still no fucking voice

Poison Peddling
02:18
|
|||
The scum begins to crawl
Beneath the skin
Of the afflicted
Taking over vein by vein
The fraudulent concern from
Creators of the venom
While the victims writhe in pain
There is no monetary compensation for what you've done
Penchant for poison peddling
And there's nowhere left to run
Now you've met the dollar demands
Now you'll pay with the blood on your hands With the blood in your veins
Infiltrated with conviction
The slaughter will now begin
A gun to the head of executives
Whose success comes
With their sin
We usher in a new age
But never forget this rage

Broken Vow
02:37
|
|||
A rumbling in the underground
Beneath the skin of the enraged
A vow of liberation
For the afflicted from their cage
Compassion at the
Center of aggression
Our philosophy intact
Beneath their pain
The alleviation of hatred
And they will never
Fucking speak again
The fear mongers
Never keep their promises
Nothing but a Broken Vow

Your Fate
02:16
|
|||
Severed from sovereignty
This is a sane minds end
Jumping through hoops of hypocrisy
To defer and to defend
Cling to the thorny stem
While staring at the rose
And telling the world it helps
I want to be awake for every hour of sunlight
And aware through the coldest nights
Leave this life behind
Ease my tired mind
Become dependence
Seek your escape
This is your liberation
This is your fate
Become dependence
Seek your escape
Hung from the manmade gallows
This is my fate
No more dependence
No more escape
Free from the man-made gallows
This is my fate
