Behind concrete walls The worst among us hide Once more, they will know What it means to live in fucking fear Make them fear like 1945 Fence-walking pawns, separatists, apologists, all entangled Cross-burning cops, catechists, loyalists, fascist agents Life-sucking laws, corporate claws, reprobates, rot the system Shit-talking frauds, charlatans, hypocrites, drawn and quartered Infiltrators, stamp them out Infiltrators, crushed liked insects Infiltrators, stamp them out Infiltrators, crushed liked insects Fence-walking pawns, separatists, apologists, all entangled Cross-burning cops, catechists, loyalists, fascist agents Infiltrators, stamp them out Infiltrators, crushed liked insects Infiltrators, stamp them out Infiltrators, crushed liked insects

Ancient ways ensnared in the monetary grip Sons and daughters slaved by the wage and the whip Our way of life crushed, as our lives drown in work Is this what we're to think that a human life is worth? Burned out fields and broken, black factories Echoing the names of the dead who came before me Who yearns to breathe this acrid, acid air? Who among us bleeds for a better life beyond despair? Eaters and eaten, deathwork, so nauseating Master and servant, deathwork immiserating The eaters and the eaten, eaten alive Hours spent in the shadow of the mill Days turn to weeks as our lifeblood spills Burned out fields and broken, black factories Echoing the names of the dead who came before me Eaters and eaten, deathwork, so nauseating Master and servant, deathwork immiserating From the rare earth mine, to the longshore line Survival is a burden, that we can not relent The eaters and the eaten, eaten alive Hours spent in the shadow of the mill Days turn to weeks as our lifeblood spills Falling through the cracks, we bring down the anvil of dissent From ash-caked eyes, thousand-mile stares Gaze upon a world where this system is extinct and nevermore

No hope nor reason Just thirteen years against the grain Broke, burned and branded No greater cause called my name Caged like a cipher Doomed to dwell a dead-end life The way it is? Or conspiracy? Wherefore and why this world should be? Now through wool-encrusted eyes I see Their malfeasance and their sophistry As the tentacles of lies unfold In this complete control Rife with division Shreds of truth infect thе maze Prophets spew dеrision As empires wax and wane Who am I in this? A hero's song, or Caliban? Plant the seed, pull the strings My will is all that's left of me Now through wool-encrusted eyes I see Their malfeasance and their sophistry As the tentacles of lies unfold In this complete control Now killers walk among us And skeptics blindly stare As power grips insidious All that's real fades into the air
