Ecocide 01:42
Refuse and waste piled up to the sky Dozens of endangered species all die ECOCIDE! Oceans rise and emissions climb While endless debating wastes all our time ECOCIDE! Right in front of our eyes! Soil dries up while the Amazon burns Our Mother, our home, when will we learn? ECOCIDE! Endless extraction, the beast that must feed Life over profit, love over greed ECOCIDE! Right in front of our eyes!
2.
Burning wasteland, choking on ash Thousands of lives gone in a flash In the wake of the bomb Cannot escape the poisonous cloud Noxious plume like a funeral shroud Torn from the sky Below they cry Eruption of death In the wake of the bomb Fire from Hell, engulf the world Force of atomic destruction unfurled In the wake of the bomb Survivors riddled with cancerous flesh Scarred by the bomb, a fate worse than death In the wake of the bomb
3.
Endless War 02:05
Weapons drawn with thirst for blood Limbs and bodies lie in mud Village burning to the ground Enslave all survivors found ENDLESS WAR! Siege of fire, scorch the land Soldiers march with gun in hand Air raid siren blaring high Explosions black out the sky ENDLESS WAR! Blast from kamikaze drones Dispossessed flee from their homes Citizens sentenced to die For some dictator's stupid pride ENDLESS WAR! Flames of war burn everyday Seems it's always been that way Global conflicts, must defuse Game of conquest, all will lose End this fucking war!
4.
Doomsday clock, ready to strike Time almost up for all human kind IS THIS THE END? Missiles are launched, nowhere to hide Citizens cower, waiting to die IS THIS THE END? Destruction assured, all sides comply The push of a button, we all say goodbye THIS IS THE END!
5.
I'm dragging up, pulling the pin You keep mouthing off, don't need your shit POSTION OF...FUCK YOU! Won't be held hostage by paying the rent Try an ultimatum, this is what you get POSTION OF...FUCK YOU! Not coming in, don't matter what for Don't push your luck or I'm out the door POSTION OF...FUCK YOU! FUCK OFF!
6.
Disregulated 02:10
Walk in a daze, trapped in a maze Intrusive thoughts that just won't go away Focus derailed by what you said Echo your words around in my head
7.
Drowning 01:45
Everyday, it's the same I can't breathe, it's too late DROWNING, DROWNING FAST Can't keep up, going down It's too much, I want out DROWNING, DROWNING FAST Sinking fast, without a sound Now I know, gonna drown DROWNING, DROWNING FAST Try to float, grab ahold Pull me up, don't let go
8.
Intelligent ape, impose your will Seek to control all that you see THE HUBRIS OF MANKIND Misguided ape, shortsighted plans Molding the world, you don't understand THE HUBRIS OF MANKIND Conceited ape, think you're a god Goals only based on your selfish need THE HUBRIS OF MANKIND Destructive ape, reap what you sow Digging the hole for your own grave
9.
Doesn't matter what you say We'll live to fight another day Doesn't matter what you say Cuz ya know we'll find a way NEVER SURRENDER! Shut us down, we'll be back Guerilla warfare punk attack Blackest sheep standing stall Get back up when we fall NEVER SURRENDER! Been this way since our youth Live for music, that's our truth Not a phase, no remorse Pushing back with all our force NEVER SURRENDER! Rebellious youth, carve your path Straight ahead, no looking back To yourself, always be true Stick together through and through

Ride Free 01:43
Gotta get out, must get away Can't listen to all the shit that you say Can't take my life RIDING FREE Breaking my body, don't give a fuck! Give me that rush til my time is up Can't take my life RIDING FREE Beyond horizons, places unknown Rock with my people wherever I roam Can't take my life RIDING FREE Can't take my life!
11.
Let's get ready to hit the road Case of beer and smokes in tow Can't wait for the gig, so let's fucking go! Crush one, drink and destroy Waiting to blow off some steam the whole week Pound back a sixer before you can blink Drink so much beer that I can't even think Crush one, drink and destroy Music blares, bodies thrashing around Intoxicated, I bask in the sound Pass me one more before I hit the ground Crush one, drink and destroy Regret pulsing out of my throbbing brain Dehydrated body, aching with pain Then you pass me one, say "let's do it again!" Crush one, DRINK AND DESTROY!
12.
Trenches 02:08
War feels like it's all around Adversaries gaining ground From trenches of the police state Trenches of partisan hate Corporate greed, unending need Fill the pockets of the elite See enemies all around Gotta fight before it's too late TRENCHES! MANY FRONTS TO FIGHT! Trenches in the culture war Keyboard jockeys keeping score Fighting for supremacy Control narratives they see Tribal minds, scroll timelines Searching for apostasy Insignificant bickering Keep that shit away from me TRENCHES! MANY FRONTS TO FIGHT! Raid the trench of traumas past Memories with shadows cast Toxic patterns, broken bonds Face them down, try to move on Learn to live, must forgive Yourself and those already gone Fight with vulnerability Let go of war mentality TRENCHES! MANY FRONTS TO FIGHT! IN THE TRENCHES! THE TRENCHES OF YOUR MIND!
