Put On A Mask

I'm just trying to be myself
Why can you not see?
I'm never gonna forget who I am
Fuck your toxicity!
Not gonna put on a mask!
Your ideology isn't mandatory!

Turning on the TV
Watching the news
Until it comes out of the blue
"We're killing the planet, we're all gonna die."
The anchor seems sad, but I'm on cloud nine!
How is this truth inconvenient?
I'll take the time to relish in it!
I've never been one to do things myself,
So why the hell should I start with this?
10 years to die,
So excited I could fly,
If I were to lie,
I'd say I’m a happy guy!
Everybody's scared and staying inside,
But I'm just taking a nice jog outside!
Everything's free now society's gone
I'm gonna die anyway, probably next dawn.
Where is the end?

Social Cred

This person got his name in gold
Wish that I was in the know
So I'll try to do my best and go
Put on a dog and pony show!
So I hide in the back of all the bars
Waiting for the TV and movie stars
I gotta pounce on them, as they're my prey
And I go take all of their lives away!
Gotta get that social cred!
Gotta get it now!

Falling
Numbing
Fade out
Zombie
Held back
On a leash
Rip out
Hair and face

Hit You (With My Truck)
02:40

|
I have things to do today
Stop getting in my way!
Cutting off at every turn
Your ruining my day!
If this is a test of patience, then I am gonna fail!
Blood boiling so hot, happiness about to bail!
You can't do what you want!
You got diminishing luck!
Stop being a fucking cunt!
I'm gonna hit you with my truck!
I gave you your chance
But now it's way too late!
I hope I can crush your windpipe
So I can watch you suffocate!

Love Song #69
01:33

It spreads like a rash, feeling overcast
They are only in it for the cash
"You broke my heart?" How witty and sharp!
Now sing to the thousands who've done it before!
You think success is a walk in the park
Since you've paid your way to the very top
You step on the people who actually try
Your facade needs to be buried alive
How much is enough
Fill your life with junk
You think you're getting crunk
When you're really drunk
The loneliest achievement of all
But you don't give in and bawl
Further to the top you crawl
Despite knowing you'll lose this brawl

Civil War
00:52
|
|||
|
Constant pats on the back
From the close-minded
Another one in the pack
Completely blinded
They want a civil war!
Total destruction!
A civil war!
Freedom forgotten!
A similarity circle jerk
That never stops
Why haven't we realize that
This is what they want?!

The Void
03:14
|
|||
|
Blinded by mindless following
Another sheep bites the dust
Taken to slaughter at dusk
Finally free of this husk
Free of hours, all but wasted
Playing pretend with good intentions
But in the end it doesn't matter
All that remains is the fading memories
He's hoping it's not the faith he lacks,
Because he already knows there's no going back
Try as he might, with his practiced plights
He stared into the void
And nothing stared back
The realization hits like a tidal wave
As he fades away from the pain
There is no heaven, there is no hell
And now there's nothing left to tell
The books were fiction, in it's depiction
But lured him in with it's clever diction
He ate the fables from the hands
Of fear-mongering hypocrites!
The rapture was staged!

Ego so high
It breaks the ozone
Everyone should know my name
Need to use you
As a stepping stone
So don't expect to win this game
I think there's some misunderstanding
Lemme give it to you in threes
I'm the king
and your the knave
Know your place in society
Turn the spotlight
Onto me
I'm the sun
Revolve around me
Y'all will know me
When I'm done
The only problem I have
Is that I don't got one!
I'll do anything to get my name put up for all to see.
But nobody knows, as popularity grows, that I'm really a fucking sleaze.
There's some people who might go around and cough up some red pills.
I will fight, I will kill, I'll do anything for them to bend to my will!
