Compartmentalize and then criminalize and leave you ostracized with a remnant of lies so I'm cutting my ties because American pop culture sucks! As weak minds hypnotize and they spiritualize the afore-mentioned lies and further compromise a societal structure whose foundation's already fucked. Crony capitalists are digging their ditches but nobody listens to a bunch of misfits, the pitches are distant so lets raise our voice and be heard. No i won't be ignored and I will not conform, my tongue is a gun and my pen is a sword. My mind if a 50,000 ton atom bomb!!!

Vacation in Space

Flying on this rock and we're dying off, eating cannibal soup for supper. Relying on the science to make it stop, won';t you help me my brother? SO SUFFER! on this shit world circling in the cosmic toilet. It is no secret the universe is dirty, I've always said the Bad Nuke is a vacuum. My soul is on fire. Huh, we're on fire. I'm irrate, I won't miss my chance to see the world. Fuck fate! I won't miss my chance to touch the sun. Blind faith! I won't miss my chance to see the truth. I want to vacation on the moon. Let it burn!!! Break down your walls of hate. If we all coordinate then we can build a smart world where we are free for goodness sakes. Break down your walls of hate. If we all coordinate then we can build a smart world where we vacation in space.

Mother of the Sea
03:57
|

|
Son, when your mother cries it drowns out the pain of the world. A river of tears that sparkle like diamonds and pearls as mighty as the Amazon, irrational feelings will flood this girl. A mother of two, she'll give it a hell of a whirl. There's a loaded gun laying a bead down on me, and if I don't fall down I'll stand by that woman and stand by the sea. If that loaded gun shoots its lead into me then I'll fall down on my knees and crawl all the way back to the mother of the sea. December and July are really both quite the same. The only thing different is the cold and the length of the day. Son, when your mother cries the rivers they still turn to lakes. No matter how far in the desert you cannot escape from the rain.

Poor souls that know they have all got to die. The world is such a big place for such a little guy, a victim of consequence! YOU'RE JUST A SPEC IN GAIA'S EYE!! Those days you feel you're walking on the edge of the road, I'm the fire that's electric burning into your soul. The reaper man has come to take you down below on Black Saturday! me, I know I've gotta die. There's no way i can stop it unless I get lucky and cheat death. I'll be the spec blinding Gaia's eye in studs and black leather. There is no requiem for a bleeding black acid Jesus Christ! And if you feel you're walking on the edge of the line, I'm the hammer and the needle burning into your spine. The jaws of life and Anti Christ, would you be so kind? On Black Saturday!!

Backdoor
01:59

Backdoor inside my mind, I find and time goes slowly by, I wait. Asking questions never knowing answers. Back door inside my mind i find, Time slips away, I don't know what else to say. A million years go by, I'm stone-faced and airless. Backdoor inside my head, walk amongst the closed-minded? I think I'd rather be dead. I don't buy into that bullshit, not for nary one second. Back door inside my head, i bled when I heard what the politician said. A world so careless it's a wonder we're flooring it to the brake lights! Exhuming discountenance, how do they keep conscience? Tell the teacher there's a problem with the curriculum. Historical progress affected by nonsense, tell the teacher there's a problem with the curriculum. Exuberant republic, unseemingly fascist, tell the teacher there's an abscess in the curriculum. A cognitive narrative, extorted and made to fit, tell the teacher there is distortion in the curriculum! Backdoor inside my mind, I find and time goes slowly by, I wait. Asking questions never knowing answers. Back door inside my mind i find, Time slips away, I don't know what else to say. A million years go by, I'm stone-faced and airless. Backdoor inside my head, walk amongst the closed-minded? I think I'd rather be dead. I don't buy into that bullshit, not for nary one second. Back door inside my head, i bled when I heard what the politician said. A world so careless it's a wonder we're flooring it to the brake lights!

Situations
02:22
|
|||
|
Situations, the stories that we talk about. The situations when we fall in together then fall out. The situations when people come together, are you a part of this new mantra? we have to learn from one another. The situations, I find them situational. Situations, People I like and those i find dismal. situations, the stories that are told, we find a common history, one that is shinning bright like gold. No one wants to die, get stuck in limbo with a closed mind, backwards thought, retro ambition, I don't like the situation. Come on baby talk, give me something more than just a line. If you live to dream and come together with an open mind, messianic message speaks of human kinds eradication. Open up your eyes and see the blind can never lead the blind. Situations, the stories begin to unfold. Situations, your mind is worth much more than gold. Situations, when we used to rock and roll, I met Sheena at a party, I know Joe from smoking dope. Situations, Those times with all those other bands. Situations, your best friends become who you can't stand. Situations, the stories that connect us, are you living out a dream or just surviving a life sentence?

Supplemental Bad Brains
03:42
|
|||
|
What do I get for my silence? An invitation of violence. Mindless leaders acting childish in an existence that is not timeless. Corrupt enterprise is certain in the land where justice is a burden and common sense has been averted. Human interest has been skirted. What will i get for my time with corporate prowess above all legality? As these things turn out of my mind, they'll say I'm crazy. "It's just a conspiracy. He's only a hapless burnout!" and on and on. They say there's something wrong with my head when I tell them there God is dead so I don't say nothing supplemental. Don't talk, keep it superficial. Say nothing supplemental. Don't talk, keep it superficial. Now our attention is turned for us to something that should not concern us. The media was out to burn him while a mother just sought justice. Using this false light to blind us, confuse, stifle, and remind us that suffering is far from behind us, and social control always triumphs. Your racism has left you with something to prove. How could a man's skin be bigger than you? It's and allusion to your mindlessness. What do I get for my silence? feelings of impotence and stagnance. Rise up now, leave that behind us, and force society to come and find us.

Beermaster

Take a step back in time and take a look at yourself. Tell me what do you find on life's lonely shelf. Take a trip into space when my mind is wasted. It's a matter of taste. So baby come on and taste it! No matter how my heart breaks, and if the sky gets stormy. Will I feel the Pain? ...But no guts no glory. No matter how my heart breaks, I keep on moving faster. When I feel the shakes, it's because beer is master. Take a step back in time, man I feel fine about being ill. Back in the conga line and I feel fine about being here. Beermaster!!
