Multinational corporations
Genocide of the starving nation

. . .


Advertise the product you make,
never give, but always take.
Kill and lie for security.
On supermarket shelves death to see.

Instinct of survival

Advertise the product you make,
never give and always take,
clingfilmed flesh and genocide,
contented life, while millions die.

Instinct of survival

The multinational corporation
takes its profits from the Starving Nations.
Indigenous people become their slaves
from their births into their graves.

The multinational corporation
takes its profits from the starving nations.
Another product for you to buy,
you'll keep paying, until you die.

. . .


There's nothing left to gain
You have just been led

The kill, after death, the kill

The shit you were promised
Means nothing now you're dead

The kill, after death, the kill

. . .


In your mind
Nothing but fear
You can't face life
Or believe death's near

A vision of life
On television screens
An existance created
From empty dreams

Hide behind T.V.
Hide behind life
You should be living
But you only survive

Life holds nothing
But pain and death
Don't look for love
There is none left

. . .


Surrounding spectacle for curiosity
nullifies the need to face reality.

Forms of escapism and entertainment
occupy... and disable thought.

. . .


They not only pollute the air
They pollute our minds
They're destroying the earth
And destroying mankind

Polluted minds
Kill mankind

They don't give a shit
Long as profits are high
They don't give a shit
If people die

Polluted minds
Kill mankind

. . .


Taking beauty from Rabbits eyes.
Real beauty is denied.

Sacrificed

Spiky hair makes Rabbits cry.
One day soon, you will fucking die !

. . .


Siege of power
In your land
Too many problems
For you to understand
Siege of power
Inside your mind
Outward restrictions
To keep you in line

Siege of power - in your land
Too many problems - for you to understand
A slave of their power - you never question why
Your going to suffer - you're going to die

Siege of power - inside your mind
Outward restrictions - to keep you in line
You're a slave of their power - you never questioned why
You were made to suffer - you were born to die

Siege of power
They made you a tool
While others were ruling
You were being ruled

. . .


There is a fascist inside of you,
controlling your life and what you do.

Fascist control.

There is a fascist inside your head,
controlling your mind until you're dead.

Fascist control.

. . .


Born on your knees
Life in chains
A slow death
Into your graves

Born on your knees

Born on your knees
Life of pain
Existence restricted
By material gains

Born on your knees
You fucking asshole

Born on your knees
Conditioned blind
Crawling to death
Revenge for your crime

Born on your knees

Born on your knees
From the womb torn
Live in chains
And die as you were born

Born on your knees

. . .


Paid to obey
Forced to be silent

Human garbage
To be destroyed

Submit to darkness
Forced to conform

Human garbage
To be destroyed

Your mind is dead
Your thoughts are void

Human garbage
To be destroyed

. . .


You suffer
But why?

. . .


Brought into this emptiness
Never hope nor choice
Emotionless and cold
This is life

Illusions shattered
An existance of lies
A constant struggle
Freedom denied

At their feet - submission
No sanctuary in death
Drugged up, fucked up
Is that all you're worth?

. . .


Trapped
Inside your head
Insular, living dead

Existing for a purpose you'll never find
Inducements, distortions contorting your mind

External sources maintain control
Programmed existance, fulfill your role

You've got a brain, shake off the reigns
Smash the shackles, break the chains

. . .


Systematic rape of nature
Profit precedes need
Maintaining economic stature
Steal the fruit yet leave no seed

And of future generations?
What of their inheritance
A world of contamination
Poisoned by our ignorance

Oblivious to reality
Conscience spurned
Beyond the point of no return

. . .


Nothing I can say
That hasn't already been said
Generic words and thoughts
Similarly expressed

This primitive stance
Feelings of angst
Matters relating
To circumstance

"Unfounded reactions
Just part of the faction"
Conform?
I wouldn't give you the satisfaction

. . .


Climb the ladder, your security
Upward social mobility

Consume the lies "It's what you need"
Vicious circle of mindless greed

Where is your success gained from?
What of the lives you're shat upon?
Caught in the web you'll play the game
An artifical life but who's to blame?

. . .


Becoming wary of your lies
Your disguise the truth belies

Only fooling yourself
Pretend to bite the hand that feeds
But you won't discard your security

The transparency of your fantasy

. . .


Eminent
Arrogant
Ignorant
Affluent
Desensitized
Devoid and blind
All compassion nullified

Paragon of virtue
(Paragon of shit)

. . .


Permissive slaves
To their methods of greed
From our needs
The leeches feed

When will you see?
We'll never be free
While we sanction
This plutocracy

. . .


Same pre-determinated
Pattern, game, rules

Uniformity
Conformity
How long can you hide the truth

Now you've settled down
Reflected on your past
The pose, the look, the stance
All part of the act

. . .


Cleansing impurity
Siezure of insecurity

Divine death

Individuality disabled
Blinded by fables

Divine death

Easy prey
You will pay
Mourn life's loss
Rotting on that cross

Divine death

C.S.

. . .


Hiding behind symbols
Self-delusion
Plenty of questions
(And no solutions)

Visions of change
A mere illusion
Futile dreams
Of revolution

Flows of rhetoric
Won't influence change
Their will is subdued
Their minds enslaved

. . .


Bitching
Back Biting
Senseless Infighting

"United we stand
Divided we fall"
The common enemy that overshadows us all

. . .


A superiority complex
Pious, holy to the hilt
Outward displays of cleanliness
Masking their inner feelings of hate and guilt

Your morality is hypocrasy
Obsessive self esteem
Enforcing your ideals
Your puritanical dream

Gather your flock
Gullable fools
Dictate restrictions

. . .


Blissfully ignorant
Content and unaware
Not your problem
Why should you care?
Not normal
An easy target for release
Infected from birth
This sickening disease

You sanctimonious slime
Understanding discarded
The truth is clear
It's you that's retarded

. . .


Stark, bleak, wasted
Devastated

When?

All life
Totally annihilated

Die!

Does it have to be this way
Is this the price we're gonna pay?

. . .


The ascension of human intelligence
To atomic genocide

Homo Sapiens = the disease the cause the pollution
Erase the aeons of evolutions

Pushed too far, just a matter of time
Seemingly nothing to halt the tide...

...Except the end - accept the end?
