Revisionist History

Christopher Columbus was a rapist
All our founding fathers owned slaves
History is written by the victors
Kingdoms built on top of victims graves
Our atrocities they hide
Edit out the genocides
This country was never great
They’ve been lying to your face
It’s time to kill the dream, it never meant a thing to me
Just a carrot on a stick, nothing’s what it seems
Feeling patriotic when you live on stolen land
Should have been your first sign that your mindset is a sham
Everything they taught us our whole lives has been a scam
But now there’s no excuse for being puppets to the damned

This is no joke
You must come to terms with the fact that people change
Clinging to a memory, but they are not the same
They’re not trolling
Does it even matter if they call it a joke?
Abusing others trauma for a punchline
Stop making excuses for your racist friends
You’ve become complicit in their bullshit in the end

Every single person you look up to is the fakest
Every single hero that you’ve got is just a rapist
Everyone that I’ve looked up to left me disappointed
All these situations could have been fuckin avoided
They can’t keep their actions hidden
Now that we know what they are
There is no forgetting because
Their abuse has left its scars
Kill your idols

Everything is falling apart
Everything’s on fire and we’re dying of plague
You’ll just bury your fucking head in the sand
Everything is turning to shit
Everyone’s an asshole and I’m sick of it all
I just want to bury my head in the sand
Choosing ignorance while people suffer makes you filth

Do It For The Vine

Don’t stop filming
Document everything
Everywhere you look someone is getting beaten down
Knees on their necks with their face pressed to the ground
Shot up full of ketamine and told to calm down
Thrown in unmarked vans with their hands fucking bound
Nothing that we’re seeing now is anything new
Privilege sheltered us so it was hidden from our view
The biggest gang around has always been the boys in blue
The only difference now is now they’re getting Youtube views
Don’t stop filming
Document everything
They can’t spin the narrative when we have them on camera

WTF (is wrong with you?)
01:36
|
|

How the fuck can you ignore scientific data
Believing wholesale propaganda
You find reason from a guy in a truck
Ranting into his iphone
We could argue daily, but the topic is moot
You don’t give a shit about learning the truth
Searching just to back up what you already think
Digging in your heels in shit
You are so closed minded
Ignorance, decided
You are closed minded
Propaganda blinded

Every single movie coming out today is shit
They can’t hold a candle to the classics
I just want to go right back
Let me regress
Every single band that comes out now is total trash
One hit wonders, they will never last
I just want to go right back
Let me regress
I miss the lie
I miss thinking things were fine
Ignorant and blind

Bad Apples

It was never just a few bad apples
You just do not listen
This is not a matter
Of some bad examples
On their best behavior
They’re still just oppressors
When we say all cops are bastards
We mean every single one
Everything’s a target
When all you have is a loaded gun
It was never just a few bad apples
You refuse to hear it
Cops are just a symptom
Of a corrupt system
Built on exploitation
Of a working class
Their primary function is protect the status quo
Fuck reform, that’s not enough, this system has to go
(waltz intro)
I believe in a world where we don’t need cops
I believe in making prisons obsolete
When we say all cops are bastards
We mean every single one
Everything’s a target
When all you have is a loaded gun
Fuck the police

You Are Not Listening

I see through your hollow gestures
We’ve been kicking, screaming, pleading, begging for some change
Cuz state sponsored murders are occurring every day
Racist iconography’s removed and that’s just great
But hiding real problems doesn’t make them go away
Do you really think that this can dull all the pain?
Surface level changes, but this shit is ingrained
Acting like you care by changing mascots and names
But you didn’t touch the policies so nothing has changed
I don’t give a shit about renaming a sports team
Talk to me when you’ve gone and defunded the cops
You don’t give a shit about the cause or the movement
You’d ignore the bodies if the riots would stop
You don’t care
I see through your hollow gestures
We see through your hollow gestures

Father

I’ve watched you slip so far away
From the person I remember
I’m so disappointed in the man that you’ve become
Fallen victim to the words of bastards, you’ve succumbed
When did you start buying into
All this fucking propaganda
You’ve embraced your cynicism
While compassion’s been abandoned
I can’t help but wonder, have you always been like this?
Did the person that I remember ever exist?
