Give in to violence eternal
Again and again and again
Teeth rip flesh; life is defiled
Under The guise of a civilized trial
Arrogant animals
yearn to be immortal
Their only reward
is a return to the circle
From the womb to the tomb
All that we do
Is covet each other
and live to consume
You’re not free; you’re just meat
A link on this feeding chain
This internal conflict
Externalized as a war
On parade as a savior
Just another whore
Lust distorts reality
and these demons
continue to feed
A pox on the lot
who can’t figure out
how live without need
You’re not free; you’re just meat
A link on this feeding chain
Knowledge is the power
to see through these lies
Without that; life is
only death in disguise
Where you can pray to your ego
or bow to your fear
But there’s still
nothing sacred here
Bound to your fear
