I’ve bled, I’ve sweat, I’ve screamed, I’ve wept
I force, and I eased, and still the gods aren’t pleased
I broke, I choked, while marionettes all joked
I lapped up that cracked up excuse for common folk
I cured my own disease, I exchanged the wind fro breeze
I broke down my dead frown and killed a dog for fleas
I made the sacrifice, to scorch the earth with ice
I paid in full, my immortal soul for a fuckin’ grain of rice
Where Is Justice?
I screamed from iron lungs, my emotions spoke in tongues
My white skin, a vile sin, dare not judge me for what I’ve sung
Such wreckage in my heart, this flesh could fall apart
This dumbfuck, my dumb luck, find an ending before I start
I cured my own disease, I exchanged the wind fro breeze
I broke down my dead frown and killed a dog for fleas
I made the sacrifice, to scorch the earth with ice
I paid in full, my immortal soul for a fuckin’ grain of rice
Where Is Justice?
The beast inside me screams, you’re frozen in my dreams
This alcohol my parasol, when rain becomes like streams
A gifted life we lead, our failure to succeed
The progress of recess, skew possession beyond your needs
The guilt you burden is dead
It’s all a time bomb inside your head
Ticking, ticking, ticking
Oh fuck it….let it blow
