“MOCKAVILLIAN”
Sit back, I’ll fiddle with it
Feel like a god, gotta find a right opportunity
I’m bad, but I’m better with the badge of a friend
Trust in me, wind up dead
But did you see this smile? So pearly and wide
No lack of style points, predator eyes, steady, dead inside
I don’t give a shit about inferior men
Belittle one for a minute, give up, I’m dominant, yeah
Cold inside, subliminal reptile
One sick menace, you bet, your next president
Some day, believe it, ‘cause you’re too dumb to recognize
The obvious red flag, stuck in your eye
Whatever, now let’s plug your nose up, open wide
Let’s chug the Koolaid, medicine
Sugar pill, cover up your poison
Proud you slip out the back door
Damn right there was something about me
Your betas all, but I’m the best
Don’t you meddle with mine, mine, mine
Your machiavellian god
So call me an asshole
This whole shop’s an opera for a bad seed
But as long as I’m the best
‘Gonna get what’s mine, mine, mine
Machiavellian god.
“GENETIC LOTTERY”
Rest, while I’m bleeding
Codified to my demoralizing status
Huddled, broken on the street
Am I breathing?
You couldn’t care less as you stepped over my body
Could I be dead or just asleep?
Would it be the drugs
Or could it have been tribe that I craved?
Maybe our genetic lottery
Twenty years have gone by fast
And half my friends are dead
The other half won’t seem to talk to me
Fuck them all.
Guess that I am only juxtaposition for you
Bedded outside, one free smile when you feel on the brink
And fucking lonely
And every window is a mirror
Screaming, “Look what I’ve become,”
That’s why I drink
Would it be the drugs
Or could it have been tribe that I craved?
Maybe our genetic lottery
Twenty years have gone by fast
And half my friends are dead
The other half won’t seem to talk to me
Fuck them all
“SCRIPTION”
Decisions, bottle down the drain
Or writhing in a robe, bed under a camera where I end up
Prescription bags of these sedatives’ warning labels
Say to take them or my shame and early grave
Are on agenda
Decisions, (woah)
Who cares if I go out without a bang?
A bad dream to tell your friends about, that’s fine
Decisions, (woah)
Let’s hope this ‘scription helps my feeble brain
Or it’s six cops, a headlock
Ride to CHOMP in handcuffs
Violently committed
‘Cause I couldn’t stop my mind.
Decisions, could I be insane?
It’s not like I would know it
Or that I could comprehend some
I didn’t vote, I didn’t choose this shit
Or opt to break or lose it
Diagnosing giant bitch slap in the transom
Decisions, (woah)
Who cares if I go out without a bang?
A bad dream to tell your friends about, that’s fine
Decisions, (woah)
Let’s hope this ‘scription helps my feeble brain
Or it’s six cops, a headlock
Ride to CHOMP in handcuffs
Violently committed
‘Cause I couldn’t stop my mind.
“NO COMPLY”
Time to sit around, am I suppose to choose?
What good are all the frozen weeds of youth?
Nothing, call the hounds and cull the useless
No matter for the right excuses
Locked inside, nowhere to hide
Now i can see that it’s all a lie
Breaking out,
No, we won’t comply
Find yourself, or better find a reason to run
Outside, I’ll be the only one
To remind you of the sun
Once bright, now the fusion’s over
Locked inside, nowhere to hide
Now i can see that it’s all a lie
Breaking out,
No, we won’t comply
You thought we could stop the rise of the ocean’s
Acidification, ritalin nation
Fully divided populations
(Woah) We’re all depleted minds
Somebody tell me something nice
All I see, your fists so rolled up tight,
As if you’d even use them
Now, locked in or could it be you’re broken?
Fight, comply, shit or get off your throne
Talk to me with every breath you’re holding
Pass to me your anger while your eyes are open
Locked inside, nowhere to hide
Now i can see that it’s all a lie
Breaking out,
No, we won’t comply
“THE BIIRDS & THE BEES (ARE GOING EXTINCT)”
Swipe, your actions are refined, your router’s on
Motivated by your pixelated god
But when the lights blow out
Swap your panic for resolve
One less body for the fodder of a riot
But I remember that day, my friends
So sweet, when the bats and birds and bees so loud
The clouds supplied us water
From a rotting sky
But all good things must come to an end
The bells of industry will ring
While technology takes over
‘Till we shove another advertisement
Down your throat and bill you until you die
Sip the river, kid
The water’s running low
Televise my violence
Neighbor: enemy
Fuck books, I’m over it
Are you starving for the show?
Party time is over, are you ready?
But I remember that day, my friends
So sweet, when the bats and birds and bees so loud
The clouds supplied us water
From a rotting sky
But all good things must come to an end
The bells of industry will ring
While technology takes over
‘Till we shove another advertisement
Down your throat and bill you until you die
So like another reason for more energy
Subscribing to fulfill another’s memory
Then swipe right over that photo, bro
You know, it goes both ways
But I don’t act like I’m a saint at all
We’re just set to following protocol
Don’t ask why I don’t bother fighting plastic
Call me drastic, but
Some day the rich will be
The only ones who know what trees look like
While the robots gouge our eyes out
Paid promotion mandatory for all.
“GEN”
I can’t believe you
Inside a family was supposed to be
A mother who’d look after little Addy
And when daddy when to prison
Nobody was really missing him
Telling by the bruises
And the shitty music too
Woman, come one, get up
This isn’t funny
There’s a little one who loves you
And a dozen men and women
Who would drag you out of heaven
Thought a little heroine
Would take a little off the top
You had no fucking clue
Tears come sunrise
Wake up, I said wake the fuck up, woman
Daughter’s up, she’s on the line
School is out, and now it’s time to wake up
Wake up
Do you remember when I stole that car
And we drove it down to San Diego?
Addy was so fucking little
You went to nursing school
I was proud, so were you
Two more years, and your career
And nothing left to prove
I said my goodbye’s, the water in your eyes
It caught me by suprise
I could not foresee not seeing you
Then Chris committed suicide
That really ate my pride
I thought this was youth
None of us could ever die
Tears come sunrise
Wake up, I said wake the fuck up, woman
Daughter’s up, she’s on the line
School is out, and now it’s time to wake up
Wake up
Fuck, oh fuck
She’s not breathing
“MEDLESS”
Seventeen, Adderall and weed
Friends still alive and me, myself and I
So fucking confident, a rebel
Rubble piling up behind me with a smile
Twenty one, fifty one fifty’s
More oxycontin please
Don’t tell a stranger
Slag another obligation
Throw that letter from collections in the pile
You’re better off not fitting in
My head is fucking spinning
Going off the rails and out in style
Cut it up, let’s do a line
Let’s watch another sunrise
Son, you know your mind is broken
Have another smoke
And let the city try to sleep
Without you howling out the window for a while
Head on fire, in the zone again
Hello my only friend, this cigarette
Buy a dose of my adrenaline
I might throw a little mojo on the side
Thirty five, lost my mind, I did everything right
Oh kid, a conscience clean don’t make a man
And medication’s only padding
It don’t kill the episodes
You’re better off not fitting in
My head is fucking spinning
Going off the rails and out in style
Cut it up, let’s do a line
Let’s watch another sunrise
Son, you know your mind is broken
Have another smoke
And let the city try to sleep
Without you howling out the window for a while
Adrenalized, my serotonin watches proudly
From the sidelines of my conscience
It’s all I ever wanted
Don’t believe a better man
Could ever fill for my replacement
Buddy, high or sober
Don’t ever say it’s over
Ground’s rumbling, and the thunder might be coming
It’s your god damned right
To have a choice, sit back
Or act like an idiot, light it up
And watch it burn
You’re better off not fitting in
My head is fucking spinning
Going off the rails and out in style
Cut it up, let’s do a line
Let’s watch another sunrise
Son, you know your mind is broken
Have another smoke
And let the city try to sleep
Without you howling out the window for a while
