Cages 02:18
ripped from her mothers arms she lies down on the ground caged with others like her - they'’re calling out there she cries til there is no water left in her eyes betrayed by the world - and no one cares hungry and alone in a place unknown where the fuck is our humanity? You should have never left the womb cuz if you aren’t white that’s the last time they'’ll care about you can you hear the cries? i can feel their cries they're calling out why isn't god listening? The foreigners residing among you must be treated as native born Love them as yourself, for once it was you who was foreign The scripture is only a righteous tool When it aligns with your life and is convenient for you Look a child in the eye and say this cage is your home Cuz they were born on the WRONG side Human spirit is not confined or divided by lines You charlatan fuck Can you hear the cries? I can feel their cries They're calling out Why Won’'t god listen? Can you feel their cries? I can hear their cries They’re calling out Why isn’t God there?

Infidel 02:02
Born of thin air to help you cope with life’s pain Transformed to a beast for power, financial gain A life of your knees, taught to question nothing Bred with hate for your fellow man From the highlands of Afghanistan to the ignorant white Get your life right, you don’t have a dog in this fight Living life with a boot on your neck Heaven and hell were created to keep the masses in check You sow the seeds into humanity Now reap the crops of ignorance Mutually assured self destruction This chapter is over – this book is done Tread lightly on your way to Babylon You babble on, but your head is already gone Beyond the beyond no one gives a fuck what side you’re on Hope you’re heading towards truth You’re holy when you got the heat up to your chest I believe in myself, nothing more nothing less You’re holy when you got the heat up to your chest I believe in myself, motherfucker I am an infidel – I wear the name with pride We are the infidels Walk with me down the unholy path Straight to hell, no looking back

Note To Self 01:56
Take notice to the patterns We face everyday Our actions always return In dangerous games we play Let us not ignore Our own oppressive nature Regain control Live on, forevermore Those who refuse to change End up all the same Life’s hard – so you've got to be harder Can't let your amygdala overpower your medulla oblongata Fear can break you – cut you down and fillet you, betray you And make a bitch out of you And time keeps moving on And the world keeps spinning whether you're dead or you’'re gone Stay strong – lean on your friends And if you don't got none You got me and this fucking song Those who refuse to change End up all the same
5.
Disgrace 00:42
Disgrace You ignorant fucker Manipulated sucker They'’re fucking with your brain Cuz they know that you’re a tool Disgrace Read a fucking book
6.
Your Pride 00:17
So proud of the color of your skin but You had nothing to do with it Fuck your pride All you have to cling to is things you didn’'t do You lose
7.
I keep having visions of some times in my past It's faded memories of people who will never be back It hurts so bad but you can’'t change a thing And there’'s lessons to learn but I learn nothing I keep trying and trying to not end up like my friends who keep on dying But I keep losing the race - I can't stop I can't look my self in the face Can I lean on you and you can do the same And together we can make a change? Cuz im there for you – unconditional love I’ll be there for you
8.
In a dying world Where just final days remain Down to one in the chamber I remember the last orange I ate Citrus and pith in my mouth It feels like the memory of someone else A distant place where birds still sang Before the lights went out Before we lost the future to power
9.
Bite It 01:13
I can feel it burning up my head Like i'm more than halfway to the end No expression, eyes blood red No confession, but it has to be said Pontoon on a river to ruin It's your last day u got people you’re foolin You hypocrite, you piece of shit You fucking scum, go bite it Mealy mouthed sow fuckin mum is the word now As beads of anxiety sweat from your brow You hypocrite, you piece of shit You fucking scum, go bite it Take a look in the mirror Are you happy with the man you see? You can lie to yourself, but you can'’t lie to me
10.
Shut your face Shut your face Shut your face Shut your face Shut your face
11.
Earth 01:25
The food we eat The air we breathe The water we drink The planet we leave Brain bolted half stunned Bled out and then you’re hung Hide ripped for vanity Head severed completely Burn the trees so they can graze We're staring toward the end of days 60% gone in 50 years The roaches wont cry any tears for us We're serving up our own demise Why eat your soul to make your belly full?
12.
Skipped groove, tried and true with nothing to prove Built with loyalty and nothing to lose Living our lives by the words from Book and Its Cover Our diversity taught us to love one another And when I'’’m down & out feeling black and gray It's hard to not think about back in the day But the kids of today and the youth of tomorrow They're grabbing the torch and they're taking it further I will never let it slip away Nardcore – Forever bonded together Nardcore – Oxnard hardcore forever

Lifer 01:59
Your heroes lied to you Charlatans with outstretched palms Separate you from your money Trade integrity for past tense glory Your heroes lied to you What is it that sets this thing apart? Are we just a soundtrack to chaos? The minor leagues to the big show? In the best there’'’s something more If this is all for fun and games Then we’re all suckers and fucking lames Every word I ever wrote - I fucking meant it And all the words you ever heard me yell - I still believe them
