lyrics

Give up your lips and tongue or kiss the guns in front of you
The news is ripe with shiest
It's time for missions to uncover truth
Execute opponents
Leaders witness, from a comfy view, the lawful pistol pump and shoot
It's just a bunch of number two
The pigs have come to punish you for cutting through your mouth stitches
Powerhead devout Christians kill, recoup and count riches
A bout this vicious will be televised with clever disguises keeping people's shouts nixed
It's semper fi exemplified
So dig a trench and hide or testify the set in stride eventual end to rights
The sentences drenched in pesticides
Meant to desensitize and correct the tide of change as tidal waves of exempt henchmen are sent in to protect the lie
These desperate times will call for rash measure margins
Since the lines are tapped, collecting calls, we'll be accepting charges without the process we were promised by our uncle when we stumbled in this jungle that's the opposite of humble
Making opposition crumble from atop the rubble of others
Gotta pop the bubble and come out from under the covers
'Cause they're smothering us all up against the wall
It's dangerous business to speak against or sit in peace to vent and protest
No rest for the wicked
No sticking it to the man without arrests and convictions so stick to the business plan
Commit your hands to your sides and your mouths to a vow of silence
Kiss your standards goodbye
Here come thousands of accounts of violence ignited on home soil by loyal deceitful saviors who tailored a legal framework to enslave with a piece of paper
Draining the people's basic rights
To keep us safe inside our homes watching programs aimed to unleash a wave of fright
If we don't take the fight to them, we just might see the end of freedoms
Our rights suspended
Life decent to Of Mice and Men
Cryogenic leaders will tell us to keep the faith in a police state regime run by cheaters, felons and cheapskates
For pistol pete's sake I hope I win a sporting goods sweepstakes to stock up on weapons
Oh my heavens, it's really happening
Maybe move to a maple leaf state or a make believe place before the country's at catastrophe capacity and drastically beyond resuscitation
Bless the nation of thieves keeping us jaded
Elated at entertainment news that caters to our hopes and dreams
So serene as dopamine that flows and streams below the seems

We hold the key or at least we used to
Till the goof troop removed it from the rings we had had latched to our belt loops
So stealth moves will be required like conspiring in privacy to unite in groups designing riot scenes
Our wildest dreams really might come true
A sight to see, the silent screams as our lives undo
A time one too many has led us to the flames of Rome
So take a last stroll down that old paved road home and say goodbye to peace, decency, innocence and liberty
Hello griel, defeat and intricate misery
Intimate infantries are lining up as we speak to keep us from speaking
Freezing sheets of ice to keep us trapped beneath
We shattered these menageries
We've been gathering the tragedies
Building masterpiece calamities
Until we reach catastrophe capacity
Disasters feed agendas and half the people surrender their reason and just accept the sweetened sugar-coated splendor
There just has to be a measure we can grab or reach together
The seasons erupt in treason
We have truly reached a peak of change
