Desperately 02:28
lyrics

Can someone please tell me that you see The daily deluge of irony Friends & neighbors double down On political views meant to confound But you know….. Sometimes that’s just the fucking way it goes How easily it seems we’ve come to expect For other to improve our lives without our sweat Lies are easily told, a product bought and sold I don’t think they like us anymore Can someone else tell me that you see That every single freedom that we pry free Is another control they don’t have Is it any wonder why their mad? You know… Maybe we should take time to reflect On just what it is that makes others so upset And learn from the weight of our history Could it really be such a mystery? But you know, this bed was made so fucking long ago How easily it seems we come to believe The information meant only to deceive For the benefit of some to the detriment of all My how the mighty would love to see us fall

Seminole Ghosts 03:43
lyrics

This country - was built on immigration Taking on a foreign land – was our designation Seminole Ghosts – weep in resignation But we take what we want and we give what we please Concentration camps – the new norm Anti-immigration – taking us by storm We advertise “The Land of the Free!” But it’s only for citizens like you, and me We taunt the world We try to instill our western philosophy WE RUN THE WORLD We seek to employ all your darling boys and girls And we wonder why they hate us!?!?!? And it’s not because they ain’t us We beat our chest on our wealth But there’s strings attached if you want our help We fly a flag of decency But it comes at a cost Your culture!, Your heritage!, Your language!, Beliefs! Aren’t leaves on our liberty tree You can’t vote, citizen of no land But your labor is what we exploited Doing jobs that no one wants to do Why can’t your work expiate you? It’s one part Racism, one part greed, One part manipulation – to feed the wealthy’s need If I had my way, CITIZENSHIP TODAY! Expand the Dream (Act) Help us pave the way! We taunt the world We try to instill our western philosophy WE RUN THE WORLD We seek to employ all your darling boys and girls And we wonder why they hate us!?!?!? And it’s not because they ain’t us We beat our chest on our wealth But there’s strings attached if you want our help We fly a flag of decency But it comes at a cost Your culture!, Your heritage!, Your language!, Beliefs! Aren’t leaves on our liberty tree We taunt the world We try to instill our western philosophy WE RUN THE WORLD We seek to employ all your darling boys and girls Hey Marco fucking Rubio How can you sit there in your million dollar house? When there are kids sleeping in cages Their family is just trying to get a better life They are doing what your family did YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITE! Ghost of the Seminole… Ghost of the Seminole……

lyrics

Cause we don’t know, where this is going The anxiety is showing among those of us who are afraid to be ourselves First one down, here comes another! It’s one thing to be a hypocrite But another to be a fucking piece of shit! But here we go, out on our own again Just your humble citizens, and those of us cause we are all brave souls Who just want to live our lives without having to sacrifice What others have just to be ourselves First one down, here comes another! It’s one thing to be a hypocrite But another to be a fucking piece of shit!

Tragedy on Repeat 02:20
lyrics
buy track
Chaos on the streets for a Tragedy on Repeat A familiar scene, one I’d like to delete Another Black Man, killed in cold blood By someone who took an oath to serve and protect You have to GO! GO! GO! And get in their face Make them understand we won’t tolerate hate Never give up, never surrender Treat every conversation as a life changer Change hearts & minds, do whatever it takes There’s a war going on, and the citizens are the pawns Power players are foreign countries on the playing field of social media What type of person thinks Black Lives Don’t Matter? Think of all the lives racism has shattered You have to GO! GO! GO! And get in their face Make them understand we won’t tolerate hate Never give up, never surrender Treat every conversation as a life changer Change hearts & minds, do whatever it takes

Monopoly 02:33

Monopoly! It’s not a game but your life So you play anyway… Oligarchy! It’s where we live Where we eat sleep and fucking breathe Whoah-oh - We can’t escape the despair Whoah-oh - So why would you fucking care? You’ve got what you need Yet I bleed I can’t keep up with your insatiable needs You put me down Face in the ground Still waiting on the wealth to trickle down Why is your time worth more than mine? Monopoly! It’s not a game but your life So you play anyway… Oligarchy! It’s where we live Where we eat sleep and fucking breathe Whoah-oh - We can’t escape the despair Whoah-oh - So why would you fucking care?

Iconoclast 02:16
lyrics
buy track
Your ideologies are just a form a dogma We stand against your hypocritical, fictitious religion You create your systemic plutocracy We fight for table scraps, in a falsified democracy Fuck That! I wanna tear it down Erase the symbols of a forgotten time You think it’s set in stone We exist just to dethrone! I wanna tear it up, can you feel the rage? You know the truth is there’s always been a better way I want to disassemble, and fight for respect, HOLD ACCOUNTABLE YOUR GOVERNMENT Can someone please show me where on the status of liberty It says anything about standing on your own two feet? Fuck That! I wanna tear it down Erase the symbols of a forgotten time You think it’s set in stone We exist just to dethrone!

Make America Hate Again 01:21
lyrics

You speak in code words of racial slurs You disseminate messages of hate Is the greatness? Have we achieved it? Torch carrying white supremacists in the streets of Charlottesville You blew a whistle for racial Hate They heard the call, they showed up in force Separate water fountains, back of the bus Is that the “greatness” that we lost (is that what you want) But at what cost? Is that what you want? You want a new life but you can’t come in Your creds are alright, it’s the color of your skin It’s not your fault there are those who pretend They want to Make America Great Again

So you know, it’s all a lie We’re in a system that works you until you die You grind and grind , there’s no escape Every day you put extravagant food on some Rich guys’ plate We must break these… We must break these… We must break these… WE MUST BREAK THESE CHAINS! So tear it up, Don’t give a fuck If we stick together, we can bust this up. Money isn’t real Money isn’t real Money isn’t real MONEY ISN’T FUCKING REAL! They just use and use. They just dish abuse. Well I’ve got some news… MONEY ISN’T FUCKING REAL! MONEY! ISN’T! REAL! WAKE UP! GET UP! STAND UP! You know you don’t even see your check It’s already gone before it hits your bank Drive back and forth, jump up and down You’re job will tell you when you can make a sound! We must break these… We must break these… We must break these… WE MUST BREAK THESE CHAINS! So tear it up, Don’t give a fuck If we stick together, we can bust this up. Money isn’t real Money isn’t real Money isn’t real MONEY ISN’T FUCKING REAL! They just use and use. They just dish abuse. Well I’ve got some news… MONEY ISN’T FUCKING REAL! MONEY! ISN’T! REAL!

Lies I Tell Myself 03:48
lyrics
buy track
Never did I worry, never did I doubt Without even thinking I had it all figured out Lies that I fucking tell myself It always seems to happen to somebody else At the expense of society I didn’t see just how they felt Behind the disguise, I still see through my eyes Ignore the obvious and embrace all the highs Moving forward, but counter-clockwise No wonder reality is such a surprise I think I have the answer swimming in my head Will I put them together before I’m fucking dead? I got a reason for everything just lying on a shelf But upon a closer look their just lies that I fucking tell myself Thinking only of me I thought that it’s alright Funny how I didn’t think it strange I never had a fight Spend all day smiling, but lying awake in bed It could be easier to swallow if we just spoke what went unsaid Behind the disguise, I still see through my eyes Ignore the obvious and embrace all the highs Moving forward, but counter-clockwise No wonder reality is such a surprise I think I have the answer swimming in my head Will I put them together before I’m fucking dead? I got a reason for everything just lying on a shelf But upon a closer look they’re just lies that I fucking tell myself

You think it’s tough and you don’t know another way But to fix the pain your don’t have to throw your life away All the drugs All the highs Are NOT the way But you got it tough and you don’t know another way There are choices and there are things There is ALWAYS another way You don’t have to go it alone You don’t have to face this on your own How can I get in? How can I help? What can I do to let you know There are people here for you Here to help you see this, see this through! Who the hell am I to tell you what to do? I didn’t get this far without a mistake or two All the drugs All the booze Have got me too But when it got real tough, I found myself another way There are choices and there are things There is ALWAYS another way You don’t have to go it alone You don’t have to face this on your own How can I get in? How can I help? What can I do to let you know There are people here for you Here to help you see this, see this through!

Rich People 01:46
lyrics

The world corporation Turns a blind eye to starvation With your gourmet food I bet you think my Chef Boyardee is lewd Lewd? Fuck you, you’re rude Some starving child needs your food You’re already worth billions of dollars Bu you know you must have more You say you give But no one cares What is a charity of a million To a bank account with over 100 billion? A friend in need is a friend indeed Well you’ve got some friend in need but you watch them bleed What? Are they too poor? I guess they’re not your friends anymore An ex-friend indeed.

about

This album is a referendum on the four years of the trump presidency. We explain the pitfalls of running a country based on hatred and division. We help to decode many of the racist language trump used. We also warn listeners on the pitfalls of wanton capitalism.
