• Democracy and fascism aside,
    We are an Obseletist nation
    With unchecked humiliation to pour upon those of a lesser caste
    From pain present to pain past
    we disintegrate with banners marked for rehabilitation instead of retaliation
    something is wrong with this equation
    Machinations are ruthless when covered in honey
    because a spoonful of sugar makes the averice go down
    and just a dollop of daydreams makes a great meal for a serial dominatrix
    Patients is diminishing as the patriots are wishing
    that they had seen this all coming
    assuming we began on the right path, what road led us here?
    People will do some stupid things for fear
    so stay clear
    Intrepid is the epithet scribbled as an epitaph
    So every time that we forget, we become a number on a graph
    that is thrust under the noses of corperate monarchs
    We are a thousand miles apart, but still so damn close
    Our eyes are closed, and our mouths open
    We thrust our tounges out, trying to taste a piece of peace
    only to discover that it's a bitter flavor
    An echo of ignored dissuasions rings
    like the tintinabulation of shattered dillusions
    These are aphotic times
    and as it boils like escalating prices of crude oil
    our plans are foiled for the final time
    because "whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive...,
    it is the Right of the People... to abolish it, "
    But we have yet to act for our own benefit
    Self evident, though it seemes to be, the truth is overlooked
    in exchange for complacency
    We persue the same Object, ultimately
    and our appointed Guards stand petrified in the corners
    Instead of rallying against injustices,
    we let the Problems preach pure pestilence
    and protrude prolifically into the pitiful population
    We live in opposite ends of one situation
    Duct tape tight around fragile wrists that ache
    from twisting against discrimination
    Lungs are shattered from cigarette smoke shrapnel
    and dust rising from chalk outlines
    Columbine images blend in the mind with group sex fantasies
    The childsplay that the Klu Klux renegade laid
    has displayed our flawed mentality
    Applaude for immorality abroad
    The time has come to spit on God
    We the people
    will make an art of Anarchy
    We the people
    will tear the walls down and party
    We the people
    are grossly mistreated
    We the people
    we cannot be defeated
    We hold these truths in the ripped flesh of adolecent hands
    All men are created equally under tyrannical rule
    and must all submit in unison to the well groomed fools
    that look down from soapboxes
    We accepted autistic teachers
    and developed, inside us, demonic features
    Criminal creatures drag tounges across infant necks
    To hide the money, they tease us with sex
    They grin with swords drawn as shame collects
    Nothing protects us from them
    They lie to us with subconcious signals
    What makes you think the cavemen were clean shaven?
    Who told you that Adam and Eve were white?
    Who said the prisons arent just filled with babies gone astray?
    Today, I decide to Declare my Independance
    From a country that refuses to teach about its own wrongdoings
    and from a country that wont acknowledge
    the suffering of millions of Armenians
    Of a country that is too interested in petroleum
    to put and end to the slaughters of Darfur!
    We are sons and daughters of a Nation built with bricks of prejudice,
    but streets paved of good intentions
    We have been told that we are the worst generation thusfar,
    but I leave that title to the men in black in the house of white
    We are never safe
    But we can take our beatings
    We roll with the punches all the way down Capital Hill
    and we rest on the grassy knoll
    We've kissed the ghosts of feet long since forgotten
    Eyes finally open, we rant relentlessly until the world knows
    that we are sick with a virus
    A-I-D-S
    America Is Destroying Sanity
    We heave and retch until we rid our stomachs
    of all the hypocrisy that they fed us
    So maybe that makes us bulemic,
    but whats one more disease on top of
    OCD, ADD, HDTV, and the GOP?
    They are the mental disorders of society.
    What more can be done but tear our flags in two
    and remember when we used to trust in God?
    We are the new incarnations of old peace rhetoric.
    We have the potential to fufill the dreams of a King,
    but instead of freedom, we let hatred ring
