lyrics

When I look at the other meat sacks around me I see glazed dead eyes like a bunch of zombies, perfectly content with the fact that they bleed for the rich inside their homes, while they have families to feed.
They say they're individuals, they're just living their lives, but they're just following routines while they all stay dead inside.
If they really are themselves then it seems to me they hide any ounce of personality behind their empty eyes.

Human beings are such phenomenal creatures, taken advantage of by others while they're forced to sport feature of patriarchal ideas that are self defeating and dead.
How can you that we have rights, how can you that there's no fight to be had while folks are being shot at, at night, by the cops who are crooked and dogs to the masters, it's a real damn problem not a made up damn disaster in our heads

If you fight for freedom, change, and preservation of this stolen land in which we built this nation, then you become a pariah forced into damnation for going against progress but all I see's procrastination.
So if progress is what you want, and progress is what you will, then why is poverty a thing why's there a million mouths to fill?
If it's for the health of the nation, well it keeps on growing ill, I feel they keep on doing this shit because there's sop much time to kill.

Human beings are such phenomenal creatures, taken advantage of by others while they're forced to sport feature of patriarchal ideas that are self defeating and dead.
How can you that we have rights, how can you that there's no fight to be had while folks are being shot at, at night, by the cops who are crooked and dogs to the masters, it's a real damn problem not a made up damn disaster in our heads

If you don't see the segregation then you're swept into the cracks because it really isn't a saying, there's another side of the tracks, and most of it's population is hispanic or black, but it's not because they're lesser people it's because the system fucking lacks any hope or compassion because it's just a machine.
You can prosecute a human but you can't persecute a dream, because that makes you a puppet who might start cutting their strings while we all fall victim to the governments wings

Human beings are such phenomenal creatures, taken advantage of by others while they're forced to sport feature of patriarchal ideas that are self defeating and dead.
How can you that we have rights, how can you that there's no fight to be had while folks are being shot at, at night, by the cops who are crooked and dogs to the masters, it's a real damn problem not a made up damn disaster in our heads

We had a say, we had a voice but not anymore, if you're raped it's all your fault because you dress just like a whore; if you're a man it's all your fault for not wanting it more.
This system is a parasite and it's beginning to bore inside of our heads to eat while we sleep, stack the bullshit on our plate and the expect us all to eat.
They treat us all like we're just pastured sheep
I'm not a tool, I am a human, not a machine, or obsolete

Human beings are such phenomenal creatures, taken advantage of by others while they're forced to sport feature of patriarchal ideas that are self defeating and dead.
How can you that we have rights, how can you that there's no fight to be had while folks are being shot at, at night, by the cops who are crooked and dogs to the masters, it's a real damn problem not a made up damn disaster in our heads
