How do I write a song
About whats been going on?
I hate the world today
I hate the world today
Trying to write this shitty song
But everything sounds so wrong
Oh my eyes…
All I see
I despise
All about the money
All for selfish gain
All about the profit & the ego & the fame
I hate the world today
Today, today.
What can I even do
What is there to say?
No one’s fucking listening
Just playing their own games
But it’s people fucking lives
It’s people’s fucking lives
I hate the world today
I hate the world today
But maybe I’m fucking wrong –
You take all the power and she’ll have none
Should you lock them up or shoot them down?
Arm them & divide them so you’ll never be found -
For all the hate you caused
All the deaths you caused.
Yeh I hate, the world, today, today.
Would I compromise
And bow down to your lies
Would I compromise
And abandon the fight
Give up all I believe in
Just to dodge a beating
Of the body, Of the mind
Of all I know is true inside
Would I watch another
Be forced in pain to suffer
Would I stand by and just let it be?
Would I take a beating?
Would I take a bullet?
Do my words have any meaning if I do not fight
If I do not stand up for what I think is right?
If I do not shout out loud
For those who have to stay quiet
You cannot compromise
We cannot compromise
We can never stand down
Even if it brings our own demise.
I have to take a beating
Be prepared to take a bullet
Because my words have no meaning
If I do not fight
If I do not stand up for what I think is right
If I do not shout out loud
For those who have to stay quiet
I cannot compromise
I cannot compromise
I can never stand down
Even if it brings my own demise.
Dig up the graves, our criminal hearts will save us on this night
The deed is done, we haven't hurt anyone who wouldn't survive
Blackened the blues when you landed hard trying to jump that fence
Pick and you choose the thrill of the chase and living in the suspense
Vandalism arson and theft, it wouldn't kill us to kill some time
Torch that son of a bitch, dance and holler in the warmth and the light
Have your heard the news, life is broken and no one can catch a break
Everything we could lose has all been lost and no one else is safe
Eaten alive by insects in this heat
Something in the blood that attracts the bugs to me
Same way I would suffer for the summer sun
Knowing I would be undone
Fun in every failure and every corner has
Another opportunity though it doesn't last
Dicked around in dirt, but then this to shall pass
Even if it kicks your ass
Fortune was never one to smile upon us
First step never taken, never had to give up
