Pay To Play
Streaming politics while stoned
Makes the truth easy to see
Everyday life gets postponed
By two sides who can’t agree
When did it become so difficult?
Looking at lies so paper thin
Another outlier the same result
Hiding behind a shallow grin
Corporate whores donate money
Just to have a dog in the fight
Raping the land of milk and honey
Since they reserved the right
One percent needs nothing here
Because they own it all anyway
Underhanded tactics made clear
Reality says gotta pay to play
Makes the truth easy to see
Everyday life gets postponed
By two sides who can’t agree
When did it become so difficult?
Looking at lies so paper thin
Another outlier the same result
Hiding behind a shallow grin
Corporate whores donate money
Just to have a dog in the fight
Raping the land of milk and honey
Since they reserved the right
One percent needs nothing here
Because they own it all anyway
Underhanded tactics made clear
Reality says gotta pay to play

Undercover
Collapsing before the race is finished
I wasn’t ready to begin this way
Spiritual returns remain diminished
Malicious forces are still at play
People are taxed to pay for warfare
While their opinions matter not
Propaganda designed only to scare
Corporate donors twist the plot
Puppets on a string try to pretend
As if they really care about us
Biased criminals constantly defend
Acting out plans they discuss
Hateful rhetoric stirs the fucking drink
Got citizens fighting one another
Violence breeds another...

Narcissistic Cowboys
Narcissistic cowboys
with crow feet and tattoos
a Harley and 6 pack of booze
with worn-out clutch
living in deceit
in their last rodeo
on a highway to hell
with no more...

Follow The Money
Bad news travels fast these days
It’s plastered across every screen
Nightmares induce limited sleep
Unholy visions defying distance
Bathing in puddles of misinformation
Darkening the doorstep of millions
Nothing registers in this vast decay
Generational gaps harm the innocent
Big brother has eyes on every corner
Invading your bedroom someday soon
They want to control a woman’s body
Instead of worrying about foreign policy
Wars are cash cows designed for profit
They don’t give two fucks about us
When...

World Demise
Humans are destroying mother earth
fertile lands toxic, decaying rebirth
air, land and sea are heavily polluted
deforestation, extinction, trees uprooted
corporations profit, not a care for our well being
asthma, emphysema, difficulties breathing
diseased wildlife, FDA approves to consume
aquatic life tainted, lead in our blood stream, awaiting doom
man made diseases, a global threat to our demise
extinction is certain, time to revolt, time to rise

On Paper
Did you beg for the nightmare to end?
While the vision crept in soft silence
Tucked in tight in need of protection
Seeking refuge from hostile violence
Charismatic beasts control your world
Manipulating all that was held so dear
Shadows stir inside some cruel room
Lusting off innocence feeding on fear
Thunder drums within your fragile mind
Lightning crashes against a sinful nature
Humans performing acts of blasphemy
Worshipping a god they print on paper
While the vision crept in soft silence
Tucked in tight in need of protection
Seeking refuge from hostile violence
Charismatic beasts control your world
Manipulating all that was held so dear
Shadows stir inside some cruel room
Lusting off innocence feeding on fear
Thunder drums within your fragile mind
Lightning crashes against a sinful nature
Humans performing acts of blasphemy
Worshipping a god they print on paper

Comatose Kamikaze
Requiem for a Dream in a Madhouse
touched by my lobotomy and lumbago
no time to grieve, an illusion of fantasy
frozen butterflies on the edge of insanity
wearing mascara of Jack Daniels corpses
kissed on the lips by a comatose kamikaze
feeling the blood of my second skin rising
like a souffle of a two-toed sloth climbing
from the umbilical touched by my lobotomy
touched by my lobotomy and lumbago
no time to grieve, an illusion of fantasy
frozen butterflies on the edge of insanity
wearing mascara of Jack Daniels corpses
kissed on the lips by a comatose kamikaze
feeling the blood of my second skin rising
like a souffle of a two-toed sloth climbing
from the umbilical touched by my lobotomy
