Think only animals die when you feast on their flesh? Think massive deforestation, native’s exploitation, Pollution of soil, water and athmosphere. Once everything died then what’s gonna be there? When it comes to destroying the whole planet, You come in second and still say that you need it. While your “food” farts away the air to breathe You still want it every single day and cheap. You say it’s human nature, it’s always been that way If your argument is stone age then go, live in a cave! Hunt your own cows that’ve never seen a cage; The truth looks different and you know it all the same. When it comes to destroying the whole planet, You come in second and still say that you need it. While your “food” farts away the air to breathe You still want it every single day and cheap. Make up your own excuses again Find another reason for not changing your ways Billions of consumers have never been wrong Protected by the masses, always the same old song. The handbrake won’t be drawn, There’s too much profit to be made. The handbrake won’t be drawn for you.

religion pretends and religion lies. your stupid faith equals their strength, keeps you in line, for you to keep quiet. religion casts out and religion excludes. stigmatized by birth, inferior through belief. holding on to the myth that your death means relief. religion subdues and religion holds down. male over female, the age-old inequality. carved into stone, an unalterable truth. religion hates and religion divides. brother against brother an eye for an eye, dying cause you know you're the one who’s right. i'm told to respect human's last holy cow. but seeyin the deaths they provoke up to now: i won't shut up until your religion dies. *I wanna know why are you trying so damn hard to *convince us all that if you don't remain obedient to *the word that you will rot in hell *I dont think it really matters as long as you're trying your *best to build a world worth existing, so do you the *answer is *no

never wanna give up but i can't seem to cope when all resistance seems meaningless a mere drop into the sea. ignored by the media = unheard by the masses [a so-called] free press just relying on lies unquestiond, untrialed. [time is money] don't wanna regress to violent protest but non-violent actions stay unheard; a vicous cycle, can't find the way out. does the end justify the means we choose to use when the end seems out of reach? just ideals for a future to come. "you'll have to come to terms with the system" i've heard it again and again. the easy way out always seems to retire, drown myself with the crew on this wednesday night, "coming to terms" on my own terms. another day wasted away. looking for the quick thrill that never seems to come. calm down you're not the only one.

150 species dying out everyday, when do you think its enough? bringing nature to its knees and poisoning all of the seas this monster seems bend on consuming all life on earth and we keep working over time to keep it fed your presence is a crime and we still slash and burn we're running out of time now its your turn, stop breeding we're breeding way out of control while millions of people starve and die you say you're only human yet you think you're gods this monster seems bend on consuming all life on earth and we keep working over time to keep it fed. we're just mere mutans on the face of this planet we're not worth the nuissance and its time we should vanish

verse 1) think you can't fail, i know you fuckin will. you think you'll never fall? (you're) back's up against the wall. chorus) is this the end of history TI - NA verse 2) you think you're the law, you'll reap what you've sawn. your system grasps for breath, go compete yourself to death! chorus) is this the end of history TI - NA like there's no progress within reach there is - no way I know it's, this must be, I know you're all wrong

sometimes I stumble and it seems that I'm always on the run from myself I can do nothing right nothing keeps me satisfied. I just cant keep a job and everywhere I go I seem to lose my interest this must be a disease just cant get fuckin rid of that I'm still here I take what ever I need no you cant stop me now I'v been here before u came I'm fucked up however I still see through this dourness seriously pisses me off I'm so sick of your one track mind somehow you're gonna make it through I got so sick of your one track mind I'm the one who always keep reminding you that you should never start to look the other way you're the one who nevers stops pretening by this time you're longing so bad for this sway this dourness seriously pisses me off your idle even a good fucking deal more somehow I always make it through you're so inapt it makes me incredibly ravin

I know this time I'm trying to get things right the way I'm feeling like I should never have asked a question who cares while wathcing the world go by I just want to get rid of looking for direction in the end you know theres no other way I gotta find a reason, the reason for my abstraction

I cant go on but I cant stop here give me something to hold on to welcome to this fucking nightmare this is the dead end in a world where all this suffering does take place I wish so bad that I could quit here this is driving me insane I'm dead inside, you're dead inside this is the dead end thats all whats left behind we've reached the dead end we're dead inside, so fuckin tired this is the dead end, we've reached the dead end how hell of a lot more worse can it get its so fucking hard not to shed your hope welcome to this fucking nightmare we've reached the dead end even if strict denial is put on to the market the last should see that there no let out cant you see the end is nearbye

looking for a way for me to ease stress anytime i feel that the world is fuckin a mess. a musical break-out's gonna help me tonight, i know the sound that makes me feel alright. the escape that i need ain't away too far, a dub party in a beat down squat bar. sweet melody and a one drop beat, dim the lights down and turn up the heat. light up a spliff and grab me a beer, make all my dreary thoughts disappear. run away from reality, just for the night, in familiar surroundings with no need to fight. a new weekend calls for a diff'rent remedy, tryin to forget all the human tragedies. i'm gonna get out and i'm gonna get drunk, spend the night boozin at the pub with the punks. hardcore songs spinnin on battered turntables, all of my worries becoming idle. for a few hours i won't have to compete it's nights like this that keep me up on my feet. I won't let this town bring me down Don't wanna go home so don't stop the sound These crazed nights, I don't wanna miss 'em. there's no system like a sound system. sometimes i think that my joys are mundane, but i know i'll be back out there again. sometimes i feel like i'll have to refrain, for all i know i'll go back there again.

your ignorance blockades this discernment that your deeds mean so much more than what you see at first sight and the source of this ridicule judging from the fact that you're considering yourself someone who can get to the bottom of things is that it got you when you were just a little kid they got you when you where just a kid to make things clear this isnt just about my own strained nerves in as much it just doesnt make sense to blow ressources like that smoking kills an infinate deal more than you will ever figure out thats why you can only keep your delusion alive like you're just an artless kid they got you when you were just a kid keep your delusion alive like you're just an clueless kid they've caught you when you were just a kid keep it alive, you will never figure it out this fucking strife passes by so damn easily keep it alive I hope one day you'll figure it out this fucking strife passes by so damn easily

Ladies and gentlemen, congratulations! global warming has just been ratified! years of efforts have finally come to an end, the final step into a future so bright You have been warned for over two decades to change your habits before its too late but doubting their words was so much easier than changing your lifestyle and overcoming your fears it can't be your fault it can, it is your fucking fault it can't be your fault and pointing fingers is all you do now as the robot you are it cant be your fault

I hear them talking and talking anger, anxiety nothings right, who gives a fuck lame shows, child slavery I see them walking and walking merchandise, gmo who can do right, who cares merchandise, gmo I cant loose my dream of living this life without a shame if we could only go as far as possible

Internalized 06:00
sometimes it makes me laugh sometimes it me makes me sick this is where I've gone so far these pictures numb your soul jaded minds and hearts of stone programmed to prevent condolence internalized we're trapped into this vicious circle internalized sometimes I'd like to raze sometimes I'd like to create the drab monotony of everyday life and struggle keeps you down the more I see the less I can believe we'll find a way out of this tragedy I always asked myseld what its like will this fucking game come to an end

To This Day 02:35
still u can bend the truth you're just a lay figure in this game to this day u keep holding us down but the time will come and our oppressed souls will claim compensation for every free space taken all these pent up emotions will dismantle your ideal world, a pure imagination this disenchanted world cannot have a place for our existence and ideas still u can treat us like shit but we will keep u a long time in supense to this day u can strifel the truth and it seems like this already came to an end go persuade yourselfs your are just doin your duty for every unprovoked beaten kid our suppressed minds will call for vengeance while u spread your pack of lies and wonder why they have no adulation and respect as long as there're no labels for you fucking pigs every single ones gotta feel our destructiveness
