Socialized Death Sentence.
i am just a fucking slave//bust my ass for minimum wage//before i'm paid, system comes and takes half away...//for bombs someday.//my boss hate my fucking guts//my work's never good enough//if i'm injured on the job, he says tought luck//he'll find someone else to fuck//my job...my life//landlord's pissed, rent is due//haven't worked in a few//i don't pay, get evicted, i'm fucking screwed//what am i supposed to do??//each day...i die//your..your job sucks//the system fucks!!//a timeclock head..i'm dead//employed..mind void..destroyed..can't avoid.//i try//to survive//losing..//work work..socialized death sentence//system, system..fucked all around//work, work...like taking cyanide//system, system..washing it down//and i die again tomorrow...when i wake up (or maybe not)

Back Stabber
lying bastards//decieving fuckers//you are a curse//violation//kicked in the head//when i hurt the worse//my body boils with both anger and confusion//thorazine is such a bitch to endure//i wanna rip your fucking head off//you desecrate all that is pure//stab me in the back//enemy//and to think i fucking trusted you//you never cared//like a fucking doormat//you washed your feet on my dignity//so what//you caught me when i was down//i must have been blind//to think your actions constituted any love//liar//apologise till yoru throat is sore//you're not sorry//cover your tracks like you did before//no not anymore//the drugs i'm taking don't calm me anymore//i sit in angry depression//i'm worse off than i was before//you fucking pig//i don't forgive//i don't forget//my mind's set//i hope your proud of what you've done to me//you never fucking cared//backstabber//are to me in many forms//my best friend//hitler, jesus christ, the law//fuck all you cunts//you shat on me..i hope it happens to you//maybe you'll understand//how fucked it really feels.

They Live
leaders of the land//playing god//control our senses//pavlov's dogs//kept sedated//brainwashed to submit//a life of torturous hell//is what our leaders give//(see you don't know this but..)//there's many things that we do wrong//we're worthless, unemployed//and they'd rather have us gone//we're fucking up the city//and we're taking up their space//so they'll they're importing dope for us//with hopes we'll die someday//our lives are being sucked dry//just to be sacrificed//for a facist, sexist lie//they keep it all illegal//so they can always lock us up//but they still want us to dope//so we're to dumb to rise above//and if that doesn't do it//and we're still in the way//they've created a disease for us//with no cure (or so they say)//work way a lifetime//just to end up dead//convieniently provided//with drugs to fill your head//educations limited//by governments control//they only teach you what they think//you really ought to know//televisions just a reinforcer of control//redjusting thoughts, robs you of your soul//desensitize the public to violence, sex and greed//watch us kill each other for all our wants and needs//all the sins are here for us//indulge and have some fun//they tell us not to murder but they'll still sell us the guns//don't count on the system to be easy on you//cause the rich can buy their freedom and the poor will be their tools//if you follow instructions and do as you are told//life will be much easier they'll fit you in the mold//they're working for a better world, harmonious and new//peace, love and unity except for you and you and you..
