about

This track is dealing with systemic racism, police brutality, gun violence, and problems with our medical system. Please excuse how incredibly stream of consciousness it is. We were angry when we made it (last May, right after Momocon)

lyrics

I woke up with a stroke of luck exploding in my chest
Nervous, full of purpose left my home to go invest
In my stage persona hoping folks will come to spec
Turning down the news cause truths a joke to those invested

Added myself to lists of benevolent defectors
Sick of oligarchy could be hella insurrections
No estate is real and our development's arrested
Theyre like Bluth except they ensure families are separate
What can you do except prepare for mass divestment
And hustle so your bread is still collected
Another teenage head was just injected
With metal slug from accidental exit
Of bullet chamber spread from would be thespian

And my home is the only place where it happens
Money money money to the manufacturers
Shareholder profits over med cabinets
Profit margins rise while we fill caskets


When the bullets started flying
We started dying
You’re steady buying
Worried bout your clients
Yeah
But we’re seeing Zion

I don’t give a fuck about your bottom line
Killing us should really be a fucking crime
Cause we’re dying out here too soon
Dying out here to soon
Cause we’re dying out here


Do I matter if my impact has limited reach
Does a teacher change the world with students when they teach?
Pastors stack investments with the sermons they can preach
Other pastors argue that this is biblical breach


Faith politicking must have a melanin dependency
Cause folks will call it godly when it has moral deficiency
Site the voice of God from hedonism they're dismissing these
Pleas for civility
Shouldn't be resisting, b
Shouldn't even be out on the street for bad positioning
Shouldn't be at home enjoying sweets or even living these
Times are dangerous and I'm threatened by your existence. We
Argue hollow points instead of listening

Narratives are false but have the strength of adamantium
Wealth is only growing if you're handing it
Down. Pass laws to strengthen entry barriers
Clowns. claim you're free market then disparage us
Wow


When the bullets started flying
We started dying
You’re steady buying
Worried bout your clients
Yeah
But we’re seeing Zion

I don’t give a fuck about your bottom line
Killing us should really be a fucking crime
Cause we’re dying out here too soon
Dying out here to soon
Cause we’re dying out here
