Until Then

I smoke pot with the thought
That the world will stop
But it never does
You say my pain is profitable
That if I bottled it up in a song it would sell
Well fuckin hell
Do you like what you see
Cause it aint really me
Its the same facade I'm acting like a hot rod
Well goddamn I fucked it up again
I saw you downtown the other day
You said it was nice to see me but I
Know that that's a lie
You been fuckin some guy thats twice your age
You dont love him but he buys you nice things
Like diamond rings
I hope that's enough
Tried impressing you but you knew
I've got the phoniest smile
And a bastards hairstyle
Well I know I should go
I must break free
Can't you see
What you're doing to me
Well this is it the end goodbye
You're goin off with that other guy
Think I'm gonna die
Well there's still hope don't you think
Yeah maybe I can cope
But I'll need more dope
Don't mind me or my mediocrity
Disregard this strife and have a good life
I may recover I may find another lover
I'll put out a record I might even get discovered
But until then...

Penitentiary

There’s nothing funny about this system
And what they’ll do if you resist them
Throw you in a padded cell
And act as if all is well
What I suggest is an acquisition
Of our youth on their mission
To crush that age old norm
Of deciding people’s worth before they’re even born
But if we rise what will await
All the goons of this corrupt state
And many will take the easy way out
Of sidin’ with the perpetrators I’m talkin about
I don’t know what they’ll say
But I’m sure they’ll express dismay
They did what had to be done
By blowin us away with a big ass gun
Well I really doubt
That anything sincere could come out of their mouths
So let’s hit them where it hurts
Let’s expose all the jails and show how they fail
What we need is more discontent
And awareness of the too frequent
Injustices I’ve seen firsthand
When they decide who should be damned
Send them to a penitentiary
And their descendants for the next century
Even though they wouldn’t hurt a fly
And all their families will cry
There’s gotta be a better way
Yeah our prison system’s in disarray
The laws need revised
And all the inmates organized
We’ll set most of them free
And all the rest’ll shout with glee
When their sentences are reduced
To where they’ll actually be let loose
No longer will there be
Excuses to jail people with less money
So now rise up
‘Let’s bomb the police state and assassinate the magistrate’

I found you
Sipping on a glass of trouble
I see you
Stare into your eyes see double
I found shes new in town
She wont take off that crown
we'll just see about that
She's not looking for a friend
Just a place to land
Up in space with me
Drifting
Lets make a move to the backseat
Surrounded
You can make my lap your love seat
No one will strike you down
Can't load another round
we'll shoot into the sky you'll see
I burst in through the door
Just Go a little more
Up into space with me
Burning
The real words of my effigies
Hold fast
Dont send help to our enemies
These words of hate
All in good faith
We won't shy away
I take this girl
From here to hell
and up into space with me
Timeless
No waiting for apologies
Boundless
She's a real talk for the ages
I'll put this shit to bed
I know your blood runs red
we wont count your sins
My life gets played too loud
we'll shoot up in the clouds
and up into space with me

Penchant For Vengeance
02:52

Sit back on the bed
Put your clothes back on
And don't you look at me like that
The way you used to
Cause don't you know that I melt under your gaze
a billion years of things I couldn't say
why didn't I think of the impact
why did you forget the impact
Let loose, scream at the top of your lungs
Pay me a visit baby the night is still young
Comfort me while I'm indisposed
As I often am on nights like this
And in a short time we'll be wed
I've got the ring and some room on the bed
why didn't you accept my offering
why didn't
And all that drunken sex made you a fucked up ex
With a penchant for vengeance on me and mine
Things always turn out ugly

Join the Army

You say you're chosen
Funds are frozen
Walkin up and down here
I don't admit to any wrongdoing is that clear
Got some spray paint fumes'll make ya faint
Better than nothin I say
Get real faded then pass out watching vids of ballet
How best to serve my country?
Go out and join the army
Twisted smiles turning dials controlling puppets I swear
Anyone you meet could be a part of their fleet
So all day I sit around sickened at the thought of downed men in battle with their tortured death rattles
I lack any relevancy
Might as well just join the army
Wasted youth yeah potential down the drain
But that'll show em when im shot in the brain
Cause every day is too much to bear
But maybe that'll change when they buzz of my hair
Well I've got a reason to say fuck it all and commit treason
Such a noble crime to go to jail for a lifetime, go
Want you to know
That I've seen you're kind in here before
And you won't get not sympathy anymore
I've had enough time to go outside and smoke myself to death
Cause life is just too damn tough

Fluoride

I don’t take kindly
To the facts that you accept totally blindly
Always someone in power
Doing all in their control to make you cower and submit
But im not havin it!
I don’t know what there’s left to say
Or how else to keep you at bay
I’ll get a gun when I turn 18
A testing kit for brucine
Cause you know that shit’s in your food
In small amounts it affect your mood
Then you act out wind up in jail
And its always them who prevail
Everyday I ask myself
What’s the deal with my steadily degrading health
Fluoride in the water keep your teeth real clean but don’t they seem to chatter
The summer morning
Brought flashes of another life of longing
So far away now
But the pieces of that broken heart got locked in the cellar
Just as well now but I thought I should tell her
Take it away! take it away! take it away!
All I’ve known
Could come tumbling down in an instant and we’ll all be alone
A loud plane passes by
And for a second you wonder if this is good by
I’d be cautious to accept anything you see on tv
In fact smash those fuckers leave em on the curbside for freee
Fluoride’s in the water keeps your teeth real clean but don’t they seem to chatter

I dont know where im going but I gotta get there soon.
I need to know where im going or im bound to die soon
Hop in the car start it up hit the gas
Man we going too fast hit the wall tell em all
Running down the highway, my way, you can run of you can do this my way
I dont know where im going but I gotta get there soon.
I need to know where im going or im bound to die soon
Man he hit a red light night light boy I dont need lights
for a street fight nightlight kick him in the head like
peter pan never land never gonna lend a hand again
I need to know where im going or im bound to die soon
I dont know where im going but I gotta get there soon.

Kill Some Cops

Passed out on the floor again
Unresponsive until half past ten
But I'm always gettin up to mix another drink
Cause I don't want to be sober long enough to think
How many have died at their 'helping' hand
What will it take to make a stand
One things for sure they're not our friends
What can we do to make sure things ends
Let's kills some cops
With all these things pent up inside
Well who's to say what's to betide
But towards my state I've always been seditious
It's a nation who's actions are increasingly flagitious
Fuck the police
Cause they're gang control
Gotta find a way out of here
My end could be near
Praise your lord
Even those who're four years old
Better to teach them the stars and stripes
Go up with a light
I need to chill
Sit back and smoke an L
Find out what it is I lack
Or just kick back and smoke some crack
Now it's open season
Better not give them any reason
You know I'm malcontent
So fuck the 1%

I was on the way home the other night
Real fucked up with a busted out taillight
Looked in the rear view mirror
Piggy right behind me I'm gripped with fear
I really don't owe you anything
In fact I pay your fuckin salary ya ungrateful bitch
You're nothing but a no good snitch
I hope you rot I hope you die I'll see to it that its you not I
Turn the wrong way down a one way street
Wanna get pulled over now this shit is neat
Bet that bitch doesn't know I'm packin
Like what they did to Walter Scott in the back while he's runnin
Better go fast
This shit got range
Down Down!
Hands up!
Don't shoot!
AHHHH

Turn the News Off
03:19

Don't see much in my reflection anymore
Looks so hollowed out
And I'd have to say that I'm not really sure
What causes all this doubt
So turn the news off
and we'll kick our shoes off
as you press up against me
Cause that shit'll debase
your pretty face
all it can do
And in a world so big
There's not much to do but light another cigarette
And feel real fucking insignificant
But I just gotta pay rent
And then someday
We all will pass away
So what am I supposed to do
Probably be better if none of us knew
I need some circumspection
If for nothing else than to quiet your objections\
But I don't see what added caution
Could do for a predisposition to toxins
And there's nothing to gain
Don't that just set your thoughts aflame
Yeah I think I'll just go insane
Or put a fucking bullet in my brain
