Got No Love
06:42
|

You have got no love
You have got no love
Act like you’re in league with that God above
Shame us all with your talks of rights
You take all you want, starting those fights
I’m now thinking that you are rotten to the core
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you’ve
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you
I just want to exist
I just want to exist
Live life not by a fist / Every time I raise my head you
Shout and shoot me down / If that doesn’t work, then
You build a false crown / Turn against all that I strive for
All these years you justify your actions by planting false fears
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you’ve
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you’ve
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you’ve
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you’ve
Got no love
False pretense of caring, but you

The Nile

I’m in the Nile
I drink from the same water I piss and bathe in
Water’s up to here, push it down, push it down
I’ll build taller, not think smaller
Waters up to here, push them down, push them down
Air has a foul stench, pump it full of chemicals
Smog so thick, I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe
Artificial sweet scent, false sense of security
Knees pressing down, he can’t breathe, he can’t breathe
I’m in the Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
I’m the smartest, and I write my own rules
Time is money, and I won’t suffer fools
Make the strongest arms, keep myself in demand
By concocting foes who fight with guns by my own hand
I’m not good, I am great, validate, perpetuate
You need me because I say, see my tanks they’ll roll today
If you dare to contradict me, I’ll smash your face
Overflowing good will, I hope you have a nice day
I’m in the Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
I say I’m not an animal
But in the zoo I’m the biggest hippo with the smallest campus
I’ll smear you just for fun
But if you call me out, I’ll draw a gun
I say I’m not an animal
But in the zoo I’m the biggest hippo with the smallest campus
I’ll smear you just for fun
But if you call me out, I’ll draw a gun
Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites
Nile
Waters rising high, and I can’t be bothered
Smile
Rotten to the core, I’ll still show my pearly whites

Chute
05:12
|
|||
These things are new
I can’t trust them
Chute
Lost property
No longer mine
Chute
I want more land
Taunt those next door
Chute
I need a way
To kill for sport
Chute
This is a tool
To go to war
Chute
Keep them busy
In factories
Chute
In absence of
A thing to do
Chute
We build our brand
Upon this land
Chute
My biggest fear
Is that you won’t
Chute
If you don’t use
What I sell you
Chute
Without a foe
I’m indisposed
Chute
Noone to fight
Lost my purpose
Chute
Adversary
None, now I can’t
Shoot

Eyes Shut Tight
06:25
|
|

I only see what I want to see
Pollution doesn’t impact me
Don’t give a s*** about your safety
You’ve got you, and I’ve got me
Heroes fought hard to make me free
Can’t mask my love for this country
Police my face and I’ll gun you down
Control women’s bodies; I don’t care at all
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Zip up, button up, mask up, shut the f*** up
Who gives you the right to tell
Me how to expel this air
Out of my God-given lungs
You don’t care about my life
You just want to control my mind
Starting with a face covering
Then my guns aren’t far behind
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Vile pigs
Conspiracy
Liberal media bogus play
Try to make me fear the air
It’s my right to just not care
Are you sick of living here?
Take a plane to some hellhole
Oh, that’s right, you can’t, we’re banned
Because a******* hate our lands
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight
Life is a beauty with my eyes shut tight
Tell me what to do, and you’re asking for a fight

DWB
06:01
|

There’s no justice in this land
Authority abhors a moral vacuum
When you can’t drive your car without police harassment
That isn’t freedom
That isn’t justice
DWB
Freedom isn’t free
DWB
Freedom isn’t free
Foundations built on spilt blood
Can’t respect hypocritical “laws”
Trace them back a few hundred years
Their whole purpose is to spread fear
DWB
Freedom isn’t free
DWB
Freedom isn’t free
The whole system’s broken, needs to be re-imagined
Don’t put gauze on gaping wounds and say, “it’s all fixed”
Piecemeal fund adjustments only serve to dress the windows
Demand radical change, or we’re back at square one
DWB
Freedom isn’t free
DWB
Freedom isn’t free
DWB
Freedom isn’t free

Your Fruit
04:04
|
|||
Once so quiet
They were grown
Now they’re stolen
Not my own
You once took pride
In their taste
Used to love how
They would glow
Your pride and joy
Is erased
Corporate greed
It will flow
All the things that were once good
They’re destroyed
All the beauty of the land
It’s stolen
All the stories and the words
They’re re-written
All the labors of your fruit
Can’t compete
What was taken
Now I sell
Extra ones rot
On the shelf
Purchase in bulk
Costing dimes
Never blamed for
All my crimes
I will turn blind eyes
I will tell you lies
All the things that were once good
They’re destroyed
All the beauty of the land
It’s stolen
All the stories and the words
They’re re-written
All the labors of your fruit
Can’t compete
All the things that were once good
They’re destroyed
All the beauty of the land
It’s stolen
All the stories and the words
They’re re-written
All the labors of your fruit
Can’t compete
All the things that were once good
They’re destroyed
All the beauty of the land
It’s stolen
All the stories and the words
They’re re-written
All the labors of your fruit
Can’t compete

Keep You Safe
05:30
|

This badge I wear like a scar so deep
No amount of scrubbing can change its meaning
Everywhere I go, crime do I see
I’ll clean up this mess; leave it to me, leave it to me
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
Tradition born of necessity
I’ll protect those who’re in power
Their wealth and influence shapes policy
Threats to them multiply by the hour
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe
I’m here to keep you safe

Anywhere But Here
08:32

|

By now you can see
I’m not full of hate
Not usually irate
But given these days
Weeks in which we stew
In heat and sickness new
I can’t stand the sight
Of your bare face in the light
Months have passed or minutes
It all feels the same
You all make no progress
Treat this like a game
I am beyond done
With dealing with your s***
If I were a kettle
I’d spill on your toes
I am wanting, wishing now
To be so far away from you
Since you will not disappear
I’ll go anywhere but here
It’s not a joke these lives that are lost
Your ignorance blinds you to that fact
You deny the human cost
Of the selfish ways you act
It’s not a joke these lives that are lost
Your ignorance blinds you to that fact
You deny the human cost
Of the selfish ways you act
I am wanting, wishing now
To be so far away from you
Since you will not disappear
I’ll go anywhere but here
I am wanting, wishing now
To be so far away from you
Since you will not disappear
I’ll go anywhere but here
