Rent Hike 01:21
I’ve got a right to be here This is my town Your investment in my city’s going down You should f’n know Your suit and tie suck And everything you want for us is f’d Another f’n rent hike This is your mistake You have no idea You can’t get us out! I’ve got a right to be here This is my town Your investment in my city’s going down Going f’n down It’s going down! Another f’n rent hike This is your mistake You have no idea what’s at stake My sink is f’n broken The toilet doesn’t flush You blame rent control you lazy fuck And it’s not just me it’s the whole damn town Rent strike rent strike now I’ve got a right to be here This is my town, my f’n town

All We Need 02:10
Why is the answer bigger doors and bigger locks? Why do we have taller walls and more f’n cops? Scapegoat the poor it isn’t their fault! These racist policies came from rich greedy fucks Why do we have so many guns held by so many f’n cops? I have all I need Some don’t think they do I have all I need How about you? How the fuck about you? Luxury condos over people living in cars and tents Life spent stressed over stupid shit like debt and rent Scapegoat the homeless it isn’t their fault These f’n policies made all our rents go up Why is it always guns and walls and more f’n cops? An Upper class with so much greed Why don’t we all have what we need? Dystopian society

N.O.A. 02:25
Fuck your ideas I want no part of it Addicted mind Pathetic little shit Dysfunction reigns When you’re always right Going big In manufactured fights Narcissists On amphetamines Silos built Taller for your dreams What about the rest of us? Why are we here? Narcissists on amphetamines Building new forms of slavery Spreadsheets of anxiety 40 hours of misery Everything you want Everything you do Means nothing in the end Nothing in the end (You’re going down) Seas rise crops all die Smoke’s thick, in the f’n sky Everything you want Everything you do Narcissists and their f’n lies You don’t care if I live or die A project with no reason why You want us all on SSRIs It means nothing It means nothing It means nothing Mother fucker You’re going down You’re going down You’re going down Down

New shops up and down the street Could this be Paris or Crete? You painted this town blood red But now, you want it back “So much space to fill” The kids are coming down the hill The city builds such pretty things For who? For what? Such a central location For capital to grow and thrive Such a central location For all of us to f’n die Grow grow grow they say it’s good Grow grow grow it’s always good For what? Artists live in factories In ten years they’ll all have to leave This place isn’t what it used to be Some f’d history Who had to live near industry? The same people always win, and rig all of these f’n games Such a central location For capital to grow and thrive Such a central location For all of us to f’n die Grow grow grow they say it’s good Grow grow grow it’s always good For who? Those red lines drawn for who? There’s so much we could lose Those red lines drawn by who? There’s so much we could lose Those red lines drawn for who? There’s so much we could lose Those red lines those red lines You drew those red f’n lines You drew those red f’n lines You drew those red f’n lines

Moderates 02:16
In the face of facism you care about your career In the age of apocalypse you have nothing to fear Yeah… we have four years for you to fuck this up No… you have no answers to these questions yet Do you have a plan Now that you got the job? Can there be hope or change Without an f’n mob? Collude against the left Don’t think about the right What do you believe? As these days fade from sight Who will be in power next? Where are these choices made? Years of rhetoric While you all get paid Buy new fighter jets Fuck the working poor Then feign disbelief When all of us want more Yeah, the adults in the room are fucking up And the kids are gonna f’n pay In the face of fascism you care about your career In the age of apocalypse we have so much to fear When the crisis really hits it will be too f’n late When the crisis really hits it will be too f’n late

This is when, when we hold on While watching everything fall This is when, when we hold on As you’re doubling down This is where dreams go to die You never cared, you never cared I just wanted to be someone who lands The fractured plane you built You set us up to try and fail again And again and again This is when, when we hold on As if we had a f’n choice It’s so easy to destroy Pollute and steal and kill f’n everything I never wanted the world to end Why are you so content to let it all fall apart Building systems “designed to serve us all” But never will ‘cause of people like you Concerned about nothing but some Meaningless aspect of your f’n self This is when, when we hold on This is when we hold on

You should see the warning signs You should know what’s in front of your eyes You should understand the damage it can do Did you even f’n care? You should see the warning signs You should know what’s in front of your eyes You should understand the damage it can do Did you even f’n look? When the worst comes to pass Scapegoat “it was never me” When the worst comes to pass “How could I f’n know” Had the chance to stop it all A chance that seemed so hard to take Had the chance to stop it all… She shouldn’t have to endure all this She shouldn’t have to take his toxic shit Will she be believed when she calls it out? Did you see anything? She shouldn’t have to endure all this She shouldn’t have to take his toxic shit Will she be believed when she calls it out? Did you say anything? Now the worst has come to pass Scapegoat “it was never me” Now the worst has come to pass “How could I f’n know” Had the chance to stop it all A chance that seemed so hard to take You had your f’n chance You f’d up Question yourself when you water your lawn Question yourself about the damage that’s been done
