Your pride... Why should your pride be so restricted? Restricted to a mere fraction of this earth This earth from which we have all evolved This earth where all of its people are downtrodden Downtrodden by all those who stand to prosper from exploitation Downtrodden by those whose slime infests your weak minds Your weak minds Weak minds Weak minds Weak minds Weak minds Weak minds Weak minds Weak minds Weak minds They've got you where they want you Are you the next in line? Are you the next in line? Are you the next in line? In line In line In line In line In line Weak minds Weak minds In line The next in line In line In line Your weak minds Your weak minds Your weak minds Your weak minds Your weak minds Your weak minds Your weak minds

Female subservience To impervious male dominance Male subservience To the countries' defence It's a mans world So you'd better act like one! God give me strength Women suck my length "Enemy" do you have the balls To challenge my masculinity? Just discard your sensitivity And you'll play the part well Cunt, born some more To be big and strong like daddy Drill them to perpetuate Into the ultimate form of stupidity

Delude yourself with the notion That life's viewed defiantly through your eye Subconsciously following the flock From which appearance is the only exemption The stagnant illusion of change Concealed behind your disguise What's perspicuous on the surface Is artificial inside When views are merely symbolic Of an image you hide behind The stagnant illusion of change Concealed behind your disguise

Persisting to exist "resist" Day by day life fades away Time will take its course Help, you yell, your veins swell Soon there's nothing left to sell Time will take its course Resisting to exist There's nothing to sell Life fades away Day by day Suffer now a private death

A shroud of insecurity Surrounds my every move Actions reflect Upon the response they receive A sense of insecurity Prevents my instincts being followed Fear lies in my openness Meeting rejection from the crowd Why should I feel trapped? Why should I hold back? Why can't I... break free?!

A chronic complaint of dimness Prevails your profound ideology A romantic vision of a "master race" Attained through coercive forms of authority Your observance is negligence If you see the threat from different cultures We're all in this sinking ship Each of us together Where does the white man stand? Where does the black man stand? Where do we all fucking stand? Knee-deep in the shit! Look into yourself And you'll find within you the real oppressor To a life of unchallenged hate It's yourself who's the nigger!

A vision of life Where together we walk Unbound from an existence Of fear and pain The key to which Is self-contained External freedom Must evolve from liberation within To gain respect And see the qualities in all life Forms the spark Which strikes the light When so minimal the loss How great be the risk In reaching out And reclaiming our souls? But until we overcome The uncertainty in our fellow man The vision of hope Remains an illusion

Capitalism, racism, sexism The foundations Of cock-rocking idealism Exploiting, sucking, manipulating The wisdom Of a starry-eyed nation Making "idols" out of assholes "Raunchy", "hunky", machismo type fools "Who cares if they've got no brains. Just give us tits and tools!" Fantasy? Reality? Distinction? Satisfaction? We love it when you feed us shit We're so stuck in our dreamworld Let's forget all your problems And get into the groove!! Fantasy? Reality? Distinction? Satisfaction???

A clash of eyes, resets my mind Perhaps this time Retreat to nowhere Retreat to nowhere A social skill that I lack Holds me back Retreat to nowhere Retreat to nowhere

Thoughts, ideas, hopes, ambitions Sincere in declaration Or merely token gestures? Think for a minute... The pressures we emphasize Are pressures we all have to bear And opinions and feelings We should be able to share But are we slowly crawling up our own arse? Has the influence drawn from positive expression Now lost its strength to external tips on fashion? And if our music serves as a means of communication Why should so much emphasis stem from competition? Slow down and think... Are our hearts still there? Is enthusiasm burning? Has integrity surpassed The stage of reviving?

Domesticate me Into your ideal creation Fondle me When in need of attention Brutalise me As a target for your aggression Inject me With your putrid diseases Stretch my senses Beyond the peak of insanity Why practice methods of prevention When I can pay for your hideous mistakes?? Blind me With cosmetic filth To form the mask That hides your guilt Insecure, uncaring clowns Your dolled eyes don't see The suffering I've prolonged For your wretched vanity Chew on my flesh With perverted lust Display to me The depths of your compassion As you excrete My digested corpse Into the shit-pan My place of rest

Committed to a life of slavery In the factories our own hands have built Where we must work twice the graft Before gaining the goods we've already slogged to create To consume all things material Stands above human compassion As we compete with our fellow man In the bid for a stronger position In our ruthless search for prosperity We become the tools of our own oppression Forming the backbone of a society That thrives on mass division From enslavement... To obliteration...

Behind the transition Lies a sense of ambiguity Why hide behind the truth Of what you are? Your character becomes distorted In the quest for an identity Why hide behind the truth Of what you are?

Time for my omittance From a sterile existence Where the weekend pays homage To stereotypical perpetuation Must inebriate my senses Into a state of delirium Before I turn to the meat rack For my penial selection Apathy spreads In unison with sexual disease A scourge that infests The cattle markets of youth Unconscious, just promiscuous Deprived of self-respect In the selling of their bodies All emotions dead! Thoughts absorbed Lost in sense of direction It's time to sit down And reassess my course of action

So this ordeal we're subjected to Is all part of being love? Two minds of intense confusion Contained in feelings of spite and mistrust The closer one of us tries to get The further the seems to move Tangled in trapped emotions Can't face the prospect of rejection Uncertainty arouses suspicion Of your mind I want possession I try to be honest with you But are you being honest with me?

Preaching secondhand ideas Tried and tested subjects rear Practice what you preach A moral attitude you think they lack Lacks in you when you turn your back Practice what you fucking preach! Taking all that you can get Forgetting everything you've said But was it really meant?

Outright - in my thinking And refusal - in accepting How a word so mundane as sexism Could in some way relate to me But as I look inside myself I see... Opinions are somewhat blurred in conception Passive thoughts become impassive obsessions And I find I have the ability... To manipulate those gullible to my persuasion With deceitful words and actions Channelled into one-dimensional emotions Then I realise that I must fall... Fall from my self-righteous position Re-evaluate my ignorance With respect and consideration Not take persons trust under false pretension Outright - in my thinking And refusal - in accepting How a word so mundane as sexism Could in some way relate to me But as I look inside myself... I see the contradictions

You're so cold Resisting only your feelings Worlds apart And your world's lost all meaning I, i try But nothing you say moves me Some, some day Maybe i'll hear more clearly Laughing loud But i felt uninvited Away from the crowd The way they talk it's frightening I, i try But nothing you say moves me Some, some day Maybe i'll hear more clearly Worlds, worlds apart Worlds, worlds apart A stranger to me And i could have sworn i knew you And worlds apart And my worlds lost all meaning

Premature is our response To the apathy we're allegedly fighting When the only voice we seem to share Is the one of infantile back-biting As once broken-down barriers Are gradually being recreated We neglect our main purpose And allow ourselves to be segregated As we slowly fall apart Divided by bitchery In a bated breath Who mentioned the word "unity"?

Your aspirations, unable to stretch Beyond the barriers of what's expected As the free thought you were born with Becomes externally polluted Lose sight of your ideals In their brainwashing institutions Predetermine your values To befit your substandard existence... Discouraging creativity To aim for empty ambitions Living up to others' expectations Takes hold of your assiduity Mentally murdered! The will to succeed Overpowers the will to resist Mentally murdered! Always up to the mark Set the wheels in motion A fake sense of security From your invariable position Sinking in the crowd A face minus expression A mouth that echoes words Recycled from tradition Your only contentness Is in living a lie Mentally murdered! Do you possess the strength To re-create your own life? Mentally murdered!?!?

Sometimes when inattentive I become confused by my own actions Slow to see in myself The faults I'm quick to see in others Barricaded with problems I try to hide my face By submitting my strength To a mind-destroying substance But why do I run When it's myself I try to escape? Why don't I possess the strength To learn from my mistakes? The only way to overcome your fears Is to look them in the eye! To be aware of ones faults Is essential if they're to be corrected When you lack the desire to change The anguish becomes abundant

Syringe into this earth A virus known as profit Extract from it the "goodness" Which in business terms means "greed" Make way! For another snip at the lifeline "Look - a new site for expansions! Let's carnage the forests Our main source of oxygen" Then we'll dump our shit Onto a poisoned land Where poisoned food Feeds poisoned minds And we'll dump it in the waters Where no life now knows But down it's contaminated rivers Our baneful conscience flows As a toxic cloud blackens an air Once so clean and pure On nature's form of retribution We all must choke!
