Bleed Me Out 03:18
I am mother earth I created man Now my spawn develops guns and machines Metal tools to enslave the land And I can feel them marching up and down my spine Blind to my scars and deaf to my screams I know I’m running out of time And now I feel them digging in they’ve come to take my blood with them hot needles they insert again to bleed me out Dead birds cant sing no more Hollow trees can’t hold their weight Once soil, now dust, I blow away, exhale, precipitate my fate And now I feel them marching up and down my spine Peeling skin tooth and nail, I am what you inhale if it gets their money done I remember the days before my rape free with no noose around my neck Yet the brutal child born of my assault comes to drain my blood and snap my neck I scream, I shake, earthquake Live to fight my death with my remaining strength But their boots still drive metal into my skin In the end I’m gone, nothing salvaged or saved Wars over my insides tied to another sea of graves Fat hands that shake, cut deals, spill blood, they don’t feel what I anticipate And now I feel them marching up and down my spine Claim the divine justifies the sick crime of extinguishing life

Bloom 03:28
Waking up underground Pushing up through your town There's a quiet embrace in the soil’s sound With the matter in the wind, with the matter in the rain The flower dies to push up again In the way of the bloom she poisons herself Deafening exchange in her silent breaths Like lichen breaks the stone Microscopic war zone And the only goal is to outlast the rain Bloom From morning to night As from cradle to the grave Pollution suffocates as the trees exhale A continuous breath No leaves are left Turning tides, seasons rise, they repeat their rest Cracks of concrete crumble at their feet Imitate those before Rinse grow and repeat Conversations in the trees Cells rebuild their leaves And the only goal is to outlast the rain

Disco creature Swaying to the suicide Sniff up opulence Breathe like the advertised Air brushed jesus Flattering angle christ Crucified sexualized masturbation marketing device I am the savior of sales Making change for god Savior of sales Healer of the slum quarter Prayer order female Business across every border Married miss magazine Christ knows how he affords her Once she gets too old his fish eyes will divorce her I am the savior of sales And I'm making change for god

Born from below Making miserable moments Turning time twice as slow Stained soul breathes through rotten teeth Perfume over the rot you hide beneath Build on me and plot the floor for swollen feet Maggots in the meat a card you pull, a game you cheat A good liar in my eyes but more convincing in a mirror Lying to yourself without a conscience to hear Believe everything you read and smear your shit on the walls You got a way with people and strong hands play with dolls Sounds that you twist pity your bleeding gums Sweet talk to loaded guns until they cum Towels on the floor clean up your mess once more Waste of fabric or a body to ignore Is it painful when you grind your teeth Is it as lonely between your sheets As it is empty beneath your skin All alone out front no one gaining you in You win

Bombflower 04:20
The resilience of love Gives up the crops of hate Subjugation grows in fear Ignorance irrigates Marigold ward away All that eat us alive In the loving light of days We diversify Bomb - Bombflower Leaning towards the sun Overgrown obsolescence Swailing burned down No place for hateful presence Ashes for new ground Marigold ward away All that eat us alive In the loving light of days We diversify Grow

Summer salt, then winter heat They melt the snow that's beneath their feet I float through the city i drop lines as i go Signs say don't feed the hungry CPD don't wanna see them grow I wonder how long till the meek just waste away They say that food is love but if you give they make you pay I wonder how long til they come for me Everyday for two years id see you standing on the street Some days they’d spit poison your way Some days they’d hand you food to eat Sneering through the windows of their luxury incubated cars Wondered if they’ll ever see you as the human that you are I wondered how long til they’d come for you But you got shot down

Parasite 02:42
I am the place you hide in Coil up, express, and die in I left a light on, you huddle in its warmth Is the glow a vigil, is the home a hearse I am the treat you consume Your drooling chewing hunger is my doom In my dreams your teeth they crumble away with every bite No longer a visitor, we mutually destruct Parasite Take a bite Take my momentum away Supper-time it salivates, drips down a rainy day Twisted body waves of pain in the absence of your health Contorted mind, waste of time, shallow hopeful breath

Pint after pint, the liquor pour people The rhetorical relevance of balanced good and evil Come at me with your cash and a rise in your pitch Unfold your sad life story like a mildew blanket The more I pour, the uglier you get Your wolf eyes are hungry, I can smell it in your sweat No story is as sad as the one before me You drink to numb yourself I fill your cup for more money And it makes me feel so ugly Drunk magician keeps me on his time and he isnt finished yet So sure you’ll have another I can set my clock and place bets Yeah i know some bartending tricks, one of them is you Get the fuck out my bar, pay your tab and move Drunk magician Wants to have a drink with you I'm the apple of his eye To him I'm just a rabbit and to me hes just that drunk guy Pulls out his deck of cards A funny magic trick He says, “meet Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and Amex.” Tired of his games, and I wanna go home But drunk magician senses this and extends his magic show I assume my role as famulus Forced smile for my crowd They pay me to poison them and for that I'm less than proud Yeah, I fucking see you Leave me alone I don’t care who you fucked over at the office, I just wanna go home Yeah I know I look good, you don't have to tell me twice Drunk magician, go home, pay your tab, take my advice

I’m abandoning you and your bullshit I quit that kind Serving your disservice I quit that kind It is with resolve and it is with purpose I quit that kind You’d get it if you deserved it I quit that kind The excruciating expectation Is giving me pressure cracks The worst part is the understanding That your expectation lacks I am a glass-spined mule The ass where your burden stacks If I don’t throw you off of my back I am going to snap I feel your heels in my side Kicking my ribs for the easy ride The shit you say to hurt me Will only make me laugh I hope you saved the worst of me And I hope you make it last Can you see the consciousness in my sight The clarity on my mind I recognize the life around me Inspiration you won’t find I left you on that road far behind I turn my back this time I quit that kind All your false words of endearment and praise Fall out your mouth after you’ve attacked And when shit got rough you hid and recoiled No you never had my back And as you watch me walk away Just know that you’re not on my mind It is with good reason I quit that kind

Greed Is God 03:34
I see god’s face In the boardroom of outer space The holy spirit Reaches through ozone layer holes Hallelujah Michael rowed the accounts offshore Cash communion Drink the blood of low price Money is cleaned By the holy handed- God’s men And it trickles down Good faith 500 God Send Sunday collect The money that we worship The guns of God (on the) hunt for resources Christ is that the price- we give this human sacrifice Baptism by bank- too poor to give thanks There was a time When salvation cost an honest price The holy word Top dollar savings advice Spend all your cash Pay up to save all of your soul Corporate God Promises life after payroll Drink till you drown Blood of price teeth in the neck It trickles down The human suffering in every check Sunday collect The money that we worship The guns of god On the hunt for resources Christ is that the price- we give this human sacrifice Baptism by bank- too poor to give thanks Salvation for the owner on earth as is in heaven Who will be saved And who will be spendin’ Buy and buy lord Buy and buy Own all that lives and withhold charity from thine Give yourself to greed before you die Profits are unbroken in the sky

Overbearing advertisement Chic wearings for the dry cement If you are not this image you are nothing at all Refine your face and find your place on the wall Narrow square to stand Thin line of sight Eating in demand Reading neon lights Learning to speak Lips pursed slogan tight Identity flint Pages ignite Cooking the clay Shapes like the rest Looking what’s on display Who passed the quality test Exist to serve this purpose Excellent service Expect expectation And always be nervous Monetize minds Through suggested worth of self Calculate paths of life That run us to the shelves If you don’t fill your cart You won’t fill your heart Shop after you drop to the floor Scatter your ashes at the superstore
