Obligatory Misery
04:36

Tired, just wanting something to call my own
Burned out, yielding to the degradation, setting in
Picking up the pieces from the past life
Do it again, everyday until I’m fucking dead
Will there ever be a place to rest my head
What’s the point if there is no purpose
Where’s the sense if nothing seems worth it
Sifting through the lies and deceit
The defecation of humanity
When all is said and done
And our bodies are gone
Have we left behind obligatory misery
Where’s the sense if nothing seems worth it
What’s the point if there is no purpose
The world keeps changing around me, and I
I’m scared that I’ll be left behind
Bound by the weight of my fears, I try
To push on through the other side
The other side of death and pain
The other side of lies and shame
I’ve done my best with what was fucking given
And I won’t settle for shit
I’ll redefine this life that I live
Finding purpose in every mistake
Beneath the surface, I will find
The will to carry on
Bend but do not break
Give without a take
Trust your intuition, your life is at stake

Knuckledrag

I’ve been enslaved, for most of my days
Living in fear, neglecting my aspirations and you
Hold onto my throat like a noose
Choking the air from my lungs but this won’t be my end
You think I’m unstable, insatiable
No matter the fact, you’ve not stepped in my shoes
I walk a path that only I can tread
Cause I am unbreakable
I am unshakable
I have been purged by the fires of hell
And I’m here against all odds, can’t you tell?
I have suffered, by my own hand
Nothing compares, to the knife that you stabbed in my back
I cut the strings that controlled the limbs
of this skeleton
Dead man, rise up
Dead man, fucking rise up

Oh, my god
How did I get here
With every step I take it feels like something’s pulling
Pulling me into a darkness unseen
Splintering even the hardest parts of me
With every breath I take it feels like I am fading
Into the abyss
After every road and rabbit hole I’ve been down
Don’t you fucking leave me alone
Oh
I’ll find my way, eventually
Lost and naive, brainwashed and fucked up
By the hands of a false prophet
Questioning everything
Tracing every step, I keep descending into the abyss
A Means To An End
It’s in the depths that I have found
The strength to not be bound, BLEGH
This is my means to an end
It’s in the depths that I have found
The strength to not be fucking bound

Oh here I come through your speakers, screaming
You best believe that I am not leaving
Til I get these things off of my chest
Pull up a chair, I’ll give you my best
Skybaus, Bitch!
We’ve come to share the gospel of the “Groove-Us”
You best beware that we do not fuck with
Fake cronies, flake homies
Only ride or dies since the goddamn Stone Age
The script’s been flipped and we have been jaded
False promises by another antiquated
Pawn on the board of this democracy
Throw up your hands if you feel this with me
I’ve got no time to check my reference points
I’m coming at you with a fire burning through my joints
I see hate as a cancer
They have us feeding on the propaganda and slander
It seems that we’ve lost the common thread
That ties between you and me
We are not enemies
For the downtrodden and unseen
Make America Groove again
For the weak and the broken
Make America Groove again
Set the precedence, for generations
Make America Groove again
For the sake of humanity
Make America Groove again
Make America Groove again
Make America Groove again
Fuck the cancel culture, speak for yourself
Fuck the status quo, act for yourself
Together the rise, divided we fall
Make America groove again
