Beloved 01:23
When every morning’s a long goodbye, if you’d prefer the darkness I’ll tear the sun from the sky. Bleed all over me, it makes me feel alive. To stop you sinking, I’d drink the oceans dry.

Taint 03:03
I invited you inside me when I had nothing to lose. I was a hole begging to be filled. You needed something to use. Tie my hands behind my back and force me to my knees. I wish you could un-touch me, I am tainted, I'm diseased. I know it gets you off somehow when they're all watching me. Your filth it permeates my skin, I'm never washing clean. Now I can't live without it. Funny that's the way you work. I'm fucking numb, if it isn't rough it isn't fun, so make it hurt. Don't you tell a fucking soul. You knew what you were doing. They'll say you asked for this. So this is life when death has just begun. In every word I speak I taste your stench upon my tongue. Your presence gags me, you treat me like a whore, I beg for you to stop until you make me beg for more. Now I can't live without it. Funny that's the way you work. I'm fucking numb, if it isn't rough it isn't fun, so make it hurt. Don't you tell a fucking soul. You knew what you were doing. They'll say you asked for this. They’ll say you asked for this. Fuck me the way you do best and squeeze your hands around my neck to stop this ache in my chest. Fuck me the way you do best and squeeze your hands around my neck to stop this ache in my chest.

Skulls, bones, cameras, and clones. Turning families against each other damaging homes, while they use Afghani kids as target practice for drones and y’all are scared to say shit like they’re tapping your phones. There’s fluoride in the gene pool drowning the weak. Television radiation spreading doubt and deceit. Once you see the shit it’s hard to get an ounce of the sleep cause when I’m counting the sheep, I see them counting the sheep. Spreading peace around the globe with acts of aggression, spreading blood for a leader who don’t have a reflection. The ones who see through the facade and hear it the clearest get fucking silenced when you’re painted as conspiracy theorists. Politicians are puppets the devil acts as Geppetto, telling lies to your children and putting crack in the ghetto. Propaganda with your bias so y’all take it as fact. A new world order was formed under the patriot act. I can only shine the light. I can’t see it for you. We the people have decided that’s enough of this shit when if you’re talking out of line they’ll make you up and just dip. Cause your convos been collected using government chips since Saddam was copping weapons using government chips. Social media’s where the fight for class disparity happens. For some clout y’all will take your fam and tear ‘em to fragments and y’all will blindly support a cause where clarity’s lacking long as you’re in the convo in your popularity bracket. Politicians are puppets the devil acts as Geppetto, telling lies to your children and putting crack in the ghetto. Propaganda with your bias so y’all take it as fact. A new world order was formed under the patriot act. I can only shine the light. I can’t see it for you. They make you breathe the poison so you believe the lies. To deceive the senses is to mislead the mind. You think you know what truth is, it’s on the tv right? They have a vision of darkness to which they lead the blind. Mass hypnosis, masses hopeless, they sleep as this casket closes. Mass hypnosis, masses hopeless. Mass hypnosis, masses hopeless, they sleep as this casket closes. Mass hypnosis, masses hopeless. Skulls, bones, cameras, and clones. Turning families against each other damaging homes, while they use Afghani kids as target practice for drones and y’all are scared to say shit like they’re tapping your phones.

So feed yourself another stream of bullshit as you grow fat off your lies. Your manufactured self will only gain you A love as fake as your life. Make way for the new generation. This is our inquisition. I refuse to play by your rules just because it's tradition. I will not call you brother. I refuse to be silent. You were once like me, now you've become the tyrant. You only have yourself to blame. Why should we accept you, when you try so hard to be everything except you? You only have yourself to blame. Why should we respect you? If I could put it in a way you'll relate I'd say you're just as fake as everything that you pretend to hate. I am here to take this from you cause now you're that asshole who's making the rules. You only have yourself to blame. Why should we accept you, when you try so hard to be everything except you? You only have yourself to blame. Why should we respect you? Why should we accept you, when you try so hard to be everything except you? So fuck these people you would die to impress. You say that you live this, your life is a mess. Fuck these people you would die to impress. You say that you live this, your life is a mess. I'd love to knock your fucking teeth out your face. You went from keeping the faith to keeping the gate. I'd love to knock your fucking teeth out your face. You went from keeping the faith to keeping the gate.

Conduct 02:38
When my life’s defined by strife and I look at what I’ve sacrificed, I fucking hate that I still have to prove I’m right. I won’t allow your expectations of me to make me believe I need to be complacent and weak. Every other motherfucker is as fake as can be and I will not allow it here, you’ll have to take this from me. All I gotta say is what the fuck you thought? Let’s see who’s laughing now. You got exactly what you want. This is not for love or wealth. I won’t pretend to be someone else. Conduct yourself or fuck yourself. It’s ironic I’m the face of the music and I’m the one who’s telling you you should be facing the music. I will not be one of them, you couldn’t pay me to do it. It’s blatant, the truth is there isn’t a replacement it’s useless. All I gotta say is what the fuck you thought? Let’s see who’s laughing now. You got exactly what you want. I hope you’re happy now. I know this looks so simple and you’re so easily impressed, but you should know better than to think that you know best. I know this looks so simple and you’re so easily impressed, but you should know better than to think that you know best. So keep your words out my fucking mouth if you’re not ready to die behind them. Keep your words out my fucking mouth. Keep your words out my fucking mouth if you’re not ready to die behind them. Keep your words out my fucking mouth. Conduct yourself or fuck yourself. Conduct yourself. Conduct yourself or fuck yourself. Conduct yourself.

He who stands closest to the light casts the longest shadow. They say home is where the heart is, but my heart is made of stone. It fucking sinks and I follow it and I'm left to drown alone. You can chase your happiness and wind up dead inside because one man's perfect world is another's genocide. No hope to sanctify the space between the black and white. I'm fucking empty but it's darkness that attracts the light. All the things that I've survived are the reason I'm alive. I think therefore I suffer. We'll walk through heaven just to get to hell. The greatest lies are the ones we tell ourselves. We'll walk through heaven just to get to hell. The greatest lies are the ones we tell ourselves. Fill me like a cancer as I’m blinded by its light. Never knowing, it’s just not showing how to win this fight. Searching for the answers, the darkness grows and now it shows. Push me over the ledge. One step from the edge. No hope to sanctify the space between the black and white. I'm fucking empty but it's darkness that attracts the light. All the things that I've survived are the reason I'm alive. I think therefore I suffer. We'll walk through heaven just to get to hell. The greatest lies are the ones we tell ourselves. We'll walk through heaven just to get to hell. The greatest lies are the ones we tell ourselves. He who stands closest to the light casts the longest shadow. You will learn if you stare into the sun everything goes black.

They're always telling me that nothing will last, but nothing ever seems to change and we stay stuck in the past. Gave up on the math, it's adding up to nothing I grasp, and is the future we look forward to just coming to pass? But what’s on the map’s the endless cycle if we ignore, we’ll never get the chance to open doors we didn’t explore. We just keep manifesting gaps between the rich and the poor. Is this deja vu or have I really been here before? A twisted walk down memory lane where none of it feels real until it's over. A paracosm where the outcome's set in stone. You fight to change the past as you grow older. I think I know too much but is oblivion preferable to the bliss of ignorance? The thought of chasing fate is surely a scam because to get there everything must go according to plan, but forcing my hand's the only way I've gotten so far, but God has never mentioned to me playing God is so hard. I'm honestly scarred, and feel like we just laugh and pretend that every new beginning doesn't come right after the end. A twisted walk down memory lane where none of it feels real until it's over. A paracosm where the outcome's set in stone. You fight to change the past as you grow older. Fight division, spite the vision. My mind has grown wise beyond time's permission. I'm the victim of my decisions. Life's a prison when life is missing. Fight division, spite the vision. My mind has grown wise beyond time's permission. I'm the victim of my decisions. Life's a prison when life is missing.
