Jack boots and a goose step fucking smile A peer through the mask reveals but a child Dressed up cosplay commando style Advance on the order to run wild There’s an occupation and they’re coming for us all Watch while they storm this city and burn it to the ground To save the statues from the fall They’ll never break the spirit running through this town Let the blood of tyrants spill upon its ground Shoot first no knock is their battle cry A peer through the ranks reveals a thin blue line So defund, destroy their alibis And fight back when they gin up so-called “crimes”

Break Me 03:21
Shot down like a runaway criminal, hog tied hands wound up behind our backs They cover our eyes with their promises, cut our tongues so we never talk back We’re slaves to the notion of equal opportunity Lined up like rats to the slaughterhouse, single file now marching into perfect time The warden’s got his fingers on the kill switch, while the gallery stands around as we die We’re slaves to the notion of independent family Somebody break me, break me out from this lockdown Feels like I’ve been buried here for too long Somebody break me, break me from the cross I’m nailed to I’ve paid for my sins for too long We’ll do this our way, we’ll do this with no help from you We’ll build this our way, we’ll build this with no help from you Like chains we break, no gains are made Its power and its pain force you to stay

On the Run 04:09
Getting older feels like a dead end road At a crossroads staring down selling my soul Trying to move along Yeah I’m on the run Got a rocks glass full of tonic and gin And a body that’s begging to forgive past sins Yeah I’m holding on But not for long All the old folks say that words won’t ever cut you like a knife But we all have scars to show off from the fight Never ever let them get your number Never ever let them break you down Never ever let them tread on what you’ve made Getting older feels like a dead end road And these days it feels like I’m moving so slow Will I fall apart Or am I already gone Now the lights flash off as the bars close down It’s a long walk home through this dead end town Yeah I’m holding on But not for long When it feels like you’ve been lost and everything that you once knew Is dying off and turning black inside Find a flame that’s shining constant like a brighter candlelight Like a fire that’s been burning through the night Burning bright

I caught a glimpse of myself as an old man, me in maybe 45 years if I had to say He sat alone drinking down at the end, so I bought us a round me and the gentleman He said, well thank you son, don’t know where I belong When all I see is for the young I said I understand I’m bitter too He goes “though this is the problem with the youth” You’re acting like it’s over babe but I’m still wide awake You’re laughing like it’s over baby I’m still wide awake I caught a glimpse of myself as a young man, ugly as shit with uncompromising apathy He settled in then he turned my way and asked, what ever happened to better days Am I to blame for this fucked up brain I don’t see flowers through the rain I said I hear you brother through and through but listen This is the problem with the youth It’s all relative and relatively lame No time for aging no time for wasting no time for change Yeah we could beat up on our past and future fates But I propose we take this moment to refrain Cuz we still have today
