We’re all American kids
Who grew up lost in our homes
While our parents shoved shit up their nose…
It’s what they chose.
Is it really worth putting your neck out on the line?
Because we’ll surely hang alone this time.
This is wartime.
Do you think that you could take a life?
If this is what it’s like…
What do you think happens when you die?
…God, I hope you’re right.
Well have you thought about our lives?
This is what they’re like…

The first thing that they do when you’re alive is they cut you.
They hold you down and spread your legs then carve into your tissue.
You scream until you shit and the pain is so severe that it damages your brain.
This is only day one…
Your pain’s just begun.
They drag you through twelve years of school so they can program you.
You had an idea so you started a business then they tax you.
Your wife gets the kids if anything goes wrong and there’s
No court out there to protect you.
You were an American kid, with hope in your heart
But you just turned 31 - your work’s only just begun.
Do you think that you could take a life?
The last thing they they do when you’re alive is they fuck you.
They hate you.
They’ll find you.
They’ll always outlast you.
They’ll vax you.
Control you.
Unnerve you.
And laugh too…
They worship
Destruction.
Enjoy your desperation
They’ll defeat you
Then mistreat you…
Whatcha gonna do?

LOXISM

They tore us apart,
Tore us to shreds.
They laughed in our faces and told us to spread.
They want us to lay down and just take it.
So clench your jaw and just fake it.
They will mandate your ecstasy
As they take your son’s masculinity..
Oh you say you have the brains?
Well I have some HARSH WORDS for you…
You’re just some white skinned boy…
Tryin’ to hold your breath
Going through the steps
Feeling so upset
Gonna go out bigger
Careful where you tread
Footsteps of the dead
Coming to your bed
Better get tucked in deeper.
A shot in the dark.
You’re prey - they’re the shark.
We’re up against the (((worldwide blue check mark))).
Oh, you have the brawn and brains?
Well I have some HARSH WORDS for you:
They hate you
They hate you
They’ll cry as
They strike you
They’ll kike you
They’ll fight you
Disarm you
Then Kill you
They hate you
They hate you
They’ll lie
And destroy you
They hate you,
You know it -
THEY BETTER HOPE THEY DON’T BLOW IT.
Just stay down
Look around
All this sound
Drowns you out
Get it back.
They tore us apart
Tore us to shreds
They laughed in our faces and told us to spread
They want us to lay down and just take it
So clench your jaw and just fake it
They will mandate your ecstasy
As they wipe you all from eternity
Oh you have the brawn and brains?
Well this is what they think of you:
You are a faggot wimp.
You’re just some nigger kid.
You are a Shabbos Goy.
You are a White Skinned Boy.

COLLISION

What will you do with the rest of today?
Will you hide away like you always do in shame?
This is no game…
They’re running the clock to kill the livestock.
And all it seems we ever fucking do is TALK, TALK, TALK.
They’re happy to lie, laugh day and the night.
They know that if we tried to fight we’d DIE-D-DIE-DIE-DIE
Come and try…
The only path forward’s to be mean ‘cause you’re right.
Be concerned with today and never lose sight.
Live true to your heart,
Live free and make art,
When you see the weak you tear them apart.
Love your country
Love your people
Take joy in confronting evil.
Improve yourself
Improve your kids
Live by these words:
COURAGE IS CONTAGIOUS

COLLUSION

Arm yourself and know how to use it.
Employ yourself and listen to music.
Be prepared and aware out there
‘Cause if you don’t care you will lose it.
Invest what you can in yourself and a wife.
Remember that you only have one shot at life.
Create a son and a daughter, plus one
And raise them right, then your job is done.
Dump those you can’t trust.
‘Cause soon enough things are gonna get tough.
Having just one other person in the end
will increase your odds by ten.
Play the long game
Keep yourself sane
Don’t do hard drugs
Or drink…
I know it’s tough.
Love your wife
Love your kids
Don’t say sorry
Don’t give in.
We’ve got to:
Build, create, collaborate -
Make people mad.
Be a bully.
FUCK NICETIES.
They want you dead.
The truth’s in their head.
Their tongues are poison
And their guts are vacant (they’re ravenous!)
The only objective definition of ‘evil’ is
DESTRUCTION
We must stand firmly opposed to any further erosion of what our father’s have built.
Do you think you could kill?
They will…
They will feminize your sons and sterilize your daughters,
While your social media history is used as blood libel.
Never lie.
God is right.
One day we’ll have made it right.
Don’t get caught up in fashionable stuff.
They’ll sink their teeth in and rough you up.
They’re not going to let you have anything….
Play the long game
Keep yourself sane
Don’t do hard drugs
Or drink…
I know it’s tough.
Love your wife
Love your kids
Don’t say sorry
Don’t give in.

It was just you and me out on the balcony.
We were singing some songs your father once taught me.
And isn’t it cruel?
Isn’t it sickening?
All that’s been lost.
It seems to be quickening.
You’re looking older.
Your brother’s a soldier.
I remember when both of us got married
In late January.
The weather was fine.
We ran out of wine.
And we all laughed about the good old times.
You and me
Out here there’s no mystery.
When they come knocking, and you know they will…
We’ll shoot through our closed doors (and we’ll be waiting for more)
It’s been years since I’ve heard your laugh.
Your tired eyes and your aching back
Our friends back home have gone raving mad.
It’s that bad?
It’s that bad…
You’re looking older.
Your brother’s a soldier.
I remember when both of us got married
In late January.
The weather was fine.
We ran out of wine.
And we all laughed about the good old times.
When did everything change?
Was it while I was away?
Half our friends are now gay,
childless,
and not where I thought they’d be.
It’s just you and me across the country.
Two White American kids alone,
At home with our enemies.
Feed the fire.
Now or never.
Pray together.
Kill all liars
One step higher.
You’re looking older.

REAP

There will be a day where each meal’s your last.
You’ll leave some unfinished thinking you’ll be back
But you won’t…
You’ll just come and go,
Don’t you know?
You live your life hiding what’s inside.
You look around the world has died
and you know…
It can’t be solved,
It must be won,
And it weighs a ton…
Worldwide lies,
Replacements justified,
Running out of time,
Killing in the right.
We’re caught up in the days,
Dreaming all about the past.
Main Street’s bare and there’s no room to relax.
We’re just broke -
Our father’s homes are made of stone
And they’ve been overgrown.
If we’re gonna win we gotta be the Reaper.
If we’re gonna win we gotta cut deeper.
If we’re gonna win we gotta be meaner.
If we’re gonna win we gotta kill all deceivers.
If we’re gonna win we gotta be the Reaper.

I hear your heart call from the cove.
Put your cold hands by the stove.
You feel the weight of this winter’s snow
We both know…
The road is messy from here on.
Those easy nights are long gone.
Holding out until the spring
We both bring…
