United States of Hate

Exterminate the wicked
empower the weak
feast on the opposition
this worlds so fucking bleak
overworked
underpaid
and misunderstood
losing my mind cuz my meds don’t work like they should
i am hated
for the color of my skin
disrespected
ignored for my heritage
struggle day to day
try to make ends meet
slaving for hours till I’m dead fucking beat
its the end of the line I’m thinking I’m fine
this world is so fucked
pure excuse redefined
what happens next
its all do in time
the earth is fucked
watch it burn
the earth is fucked
burn it down
hated since birth
from the school to the church
never given a chance they don’t know my worth
disrespected for the color of my skin
being black in America
tantamount to a sin
archaic thinking
wont be your disciple
white America I’m here to fuck with the cycle
no end in sight
stand up and fight
a simple racists times well spent
with a noose hanging from his neck.

Vicious Cycle
02:22

In this life we face constant defeat
unable to prosper with opportunities
given
half hearted
but i have what it takes
the easy way is for cowards and snakes
we are the wolves gnawing at the bones
of what this world has left behind
we are the weary forgotten and beat
but still we must survive
show no weakness
show no mercy
only way to prevail against the greedy and the bloody thirsty
we are free
open minds
ready to
break the chains
set this world ablaze
we are the wolves gnawing at the bones
of what this world has left behind
we are the weary forgotten and beat
but still we must survive
i vow on my heart and my soul
that your foundation will fall
a promise made is a promise kept
who here will heed the call
only a few will rise to the occasion
only a few will persevere through defeat
only a few can stare anguish in the face
make something from nothing and
at last become free.

Compulsive Fiend

We may share the same last name
when it comes to the blood that is in your veins
yours is fucked
cut up
with a junkies rusty needle drain
burn all your bridges
cut all your ties
who knew you were a rat, snake, bitch made
caught up in all your lies
ME MOTHER FUCKER
you’re fake
you’re frail
and your life
it must be hell
take me for granted just like you always did
face the facts
your life is shit
reach out my helping hand
but theres no point in it
fuck the drugs
pick up the nine
one less coward thief loser
to waste my fucking time
you’re fake
you’re frail
and your life
it must be hell
that cross around your neck won’t save you this time.

No Promises

these dreams of death
keeping me awake
stressful sleep nightmare
my searching fate
when will death
become a reality
why am i breathing
why am i alive
what can i do
to realize
nothing seems real
nothing
nothing at all
why must i struggle
why must i exist
why does the world always turn to shit
smoke in the air
people dying in the street
wishing that was a dream
but were toe tagging their feet
justice has failed us
the police have failed us
the earth hates us
people fill the streets
armed to the teeth
but were the ones shot dead
i am not
YOUR ENEMY.

An Hourglass of Blood
05:30
|
|||
a higher power
and engaging stories
a vision of heaven with hell laid before me
you can’t see
you can’t feel
you can’t think for yourself
ancient gossip
that should be collecting dust on a shelf
we get nothing but a life full of hell
so instead of looking inside ourselves
we seek a god
and a book full of hope
but all i see is a room full of mirrors and smoke
ill be haunted every waking moment
til the day i die
you speak of peace yet all i see
is hellfire burning in my eyes
your extended olive branch of friendship
is met with my spit in your face
I’ve lived long enough to know that
an hourglass of blood will seal your fate
i can’t tell if its the meds or the media
but this life is fucked as are the ones feeding ya
stealing memories
full of fallacies
skeptic visions of debilitating country
unravel at the seems
take this pain away from me
fall from the food chain to the rats and scum where you’re suppose to be
agony, fear, screams, war
counting down the days for the pale horse to take me home
as a nation we can’t take the stress
chasing the frontline of the news weeks mess
agony, fear, screams, war
counting down the days for the pale horse to take me home
as a nation we can’t take the stress
chasing the frontline of the news weeks mess
ill be haunted every waking moment
til the day i die
you speak of peace year all i see
is hellfire burning in my eyes
your extended olive branch of friendship
is met with my spit in your face
I’ve lived long enough to know that
an hourglass of blood will seal your fate
no peace in your love
no excuse for all my loss
no more time wasted
carrying your cross.

Victims of Time
03:50

Take me behind the shed
place the barrel to my head
this is America baby
i am already dead
the funeral
will be nice and short
my family would rather drink and binge
then take a fucking hint
how am i supposed to feel
when all thats left for me
is a country
full of fucking deceit
whats that mean to me
I’m the lowest of the low
i am careless and it shows
first-class bottom feeder at best
i should be dead
bodies in the streets
bodies in the streets
it hasn’t happened yet
but it could be me
ill never play the victim
so you better duck
because I’m never shook
and i don’t give a fuck
yeah i don’t give a fuck
I’m the lowest of the low
i am careless and it shows
first class bottom feeder at best
i should be dead
I’m the lowest of the low
i am careless and it shows
first class bottom feeder at best
i should be dead.
