Inadequate 04:48
As the night keeps flowing Vision, it gets blurry As the night keeps growing So does the worry Days bring constant struggle The only solution seems easy Night's one big strange jungle The outcome makes me queasy Run. I'll run away Far away from you I'm inadequate, my dear Run away Far away from you I'm in adequate The hurt seems to follow Hurts the brain and the heart The pride one won't swallow Hurts life's important part Run. I'll run away Far away from you I'm inadequate, my dear Run away Far away from you I'm in adequate The burn, swell, and release Chased by pleasure and guilt With others, won't appease Return to the house we built Run. I'll run away Far away from you I'm inadequate, my dear Run away Far away from you I'm in adequate, my dear

Americult 04:00
They've thrown away their white pointed hoods Posing as the proud and the true. Watch yourself in these concrete woods. Because the few will be coming for you! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! The POTUS will do the voting for us Create unrest as he claims that he's the best Yeah, it's make belief that he's the one that we desire All while making us call him sire Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! All things bright and beautiful All creatures great and small All things bright and wonderful The lord god made them all crawl Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault! Americult! Americult! It's not our fault! It's not our fault!

Alchemy 03:09
I’m not ready to plan for the next judgment day, Coming closer, the clock is seconds away from twelve, Where’s the alchemist who will turn this earth back to paradise? Trust in Mammon and life will continue to be okie day, Every problem you have just needs a little cheddar cheese, Fuck the poor, their death will mean we just have more cadavers to play with. So just step on me with all of your strength, Rely on alchemy to save your skin, Transmutation will turn our matters into a drug called ignorance. So important to save then monopolize your marketplace, Consume the weak they were not going to hold on longer anyways, For the leading man has been winning off all our failed attempts to fly. So just step on me with all of your strength, Rely on alchemy to save your skin, Transmutation will turn our matters into a drug called ignorance.

Extremities 05:10
Extremities seem to be the new status quo, If you’re not with me then you’re my enemy, Overreacting in either one of two directions, Simplifying points of view that disagree with you, Keep denying that other opinions aren’t valid, Who’s to say that it’s always one way, Usually I don’t know, Because honestly sometimes I just think I’m indifferent, What’s wrong with just okay? Extremities taking over everyone’s mind, Vehemently disagree with every issue, All these leaders and the media make it harder to relax, I hate you, I love you, I can’t feel in between, I’m an one dimensional human being, Criticize everything harshly, it gets you more clicks Who’s to say that it’s always one way, Usually I don’t know, Because honestly sometimes I just think I’m indifferent, What’s wrong with just okay? Who’s to say that it’s always one way, Usually I don’t know, Because honestly sometimes I just think I’m indifferent, What’s wrong with just okay?

Bruises swell and change colour But they hurt all just the same Chances bud like blooming flowers But they're not your type of game Daily doses of reality Spell nothing more than tragedy Just close your eyes and try to sleep But you can't help but weep, but weep. How can you hold on? When the pain's too much and you're losing touch? How can you still want me? When you're scared and it can't be bared? Cuts scab and skin takes over But that spot won't be the same Opportunity beckons like temptation, like temptation But you abstain quietly Breaking down oh so slowly Is ever quickly becoming the norm Hold on to me Hold on, hold on to me How can you hold on? When the pain's too much and you're losing touch? How can you still want me? When you're scared and it can't be bared? Cuts scab and skin takes over But that spot won't be the same Opportunity beckons like temptation, like temptation But you abstain quietly, quietly How can you hold on? When the pain's too much and you're losing touch? How can you still want me? When you're scared and it can't be bared?

You claim to know what’s best for me, But I’m annoyed with destiny now, You keep pressuring your dream on me, I can see you’re sorry now. The country known for apologies, The lack of respect astounds me, Living on stolen ground then charge a fee, I can see you’re sorry now. Working for the rich, it sickens me, The system doesn’t trickle down, you see, We’re expected to pay for their decrees, I can see you’re sorry now. One strike and the match will light the stick, Two strikes and the fire will start to spread, Three strikes and now we’ve lost our shit, I can see you’re sorry now. Can you tell I’m jaded, When I feel like we’re fated to become what we hate, Can’t apologize for everything, When I say I don’t want this, But fall victim to apart of this fucking game that we play, Can’t apologize for everything. We’re defined by generations, bullshit, The battle of the ages has made me sick, The fighting never solves any of this, I can see you’re sorry now. One strike and the match will light the stick, Two strikes and the fire will start to spread, Three strikes and now we’ve lost our shit, I can see you’re sorry now. Can you tell I’m jaded, When I feel like we’re fated to become what we hate, Can’t apologize for everything, When I say I don’t want this, But fall victim to apart of this fucking game that we play, Can’t apologize for everything.

The twinkle intensifies My eyes, they shrink in size My mind, it grows louder In this midnight hour Just noise inside my head Thoughts that one might dread Hoping for the best Get this weight off of my chest Time has run out for Mr. Delay and Mr. Deny There's no going back as oil can't supply The evidence is here, our end is near This hole you dig is simply for the coffins for my kids Our mother cries in pain We will lose this game Our children, they are doomed And their kids to be raised in tombs The lies of those who lead Their eyes are clouded by greed Our waters, oh they rise- high tide! Our air warms, we can't hide Time has run out for Mr. Delay and Mr. Deny There's no going back as oil can't supply The evidence is here, our end is near This hole you dig is simply for the coffins for my kids I no longer sleep Their actions we will reap Smog has run us deep And I pray our souls to keep The rape of our mother She retaliates with the harshest smother Join hands with one another For the kids we hope to mother Time has run out for Mr. Delay and Mr. Deny There's no going back as oil can't supply The evidence is here, our end is near This hole you dig is simply for the coffins for my kids Coffins for my kids! Coffins for my kids!

Toxic like your enemies, ohh You think you’re above me, no You make others afraid to speak, Cause you’re toxic like your enemies Take your pick of who you will screw over, It’s happens day after day, what’s new, You blame the other side for what you do, But don’t realize you make it hard to like this anymore, I recognize that everything isn’t perfect, Don’t you see that your actions have consequences, You fight for bullshit nit picky reasons, You’re gatekeeping and claim if I disagree it’s treason Toxic like your enemies, ohh You think you’re above me, no You make others afraid to speak, Cause you’re toxic like your enemies I recognize that everything isn’t perfect, Don’t you see that your actions have consequences, You fight for bullshit nit picky reasons, You’re gatekeeping and claim if I disagree it’s treason Toxic like your enemies, ohh You think you’re above me, no You make others afraid to speak, Cause you’re toxic like your enemies It’s ruined, it’s ruined, you ruined it.

I think I need help Or do you think I'm ok? It's just the walls are closing in and I'm feeling stripped away Can't you see it? Or am I dreaming? All of this feels wrong so now I'm screaming Hey! Can you help me out? I need a little more than just a shadow of a doubt Oh so hey! Can you reach me? The world is shouting yes while my mind is yelling, yelling no Oh so hey! Are we done here? I need some more Or is that too much? I'm feeling caged and enslaved so now I hold a grudge Is this all I get? The help from my betters? This has to be a lie, there is no red letter Hey! Can you help me out? I need a little more than just a shadow of a doubt Oh so hey! Can you reach me? The world is shouting yes while my mind is yelling, yelling no Oh so hey! Are we done here? I'm feeling misused Or are you that blind? Your friendship is so toxic I cannot rest my mind Can't you hear it? We've all told you! Your abusive ways are driving the rest of us off cue Hey! Can you help me out? I need a little more than just a shadow of a doubt Oh so hey! Can you reach me? The world is shouting yes while my mind is yelling, yelling no Oh so hey! Are we done here?

When death is still an option When cancer is a good idea When you can count your days When your heart just wants to stop When their eyes no longer see you When your words fall on deaf ears When daydreams become nightmares When daydreams become nightmares When the cold welcomes you in When daydreams become nightmares When the cold welcomes you in When your work just goes unnoticed When your thoughts are deemed irrelevant When your study is invalid When your talent seems to kill you When the music, it seems blocked When the good becomes the remorse When abuse is your only praise When daydreams become nightmares When the cold welcomes you in When daydreams become nightmares When the cold welcomes you inside, inside When daydreams become nightmares When daydreams become nightmares When the cold welcomes you in When daydreams become nightmares When the cold welcomes you inside, inside
