Block all the noise
Drown all your stress
Pulsing and healing
Anger suppressed
This heavy kick
This blinding light
Dark bass line pounding
Bring on the night
You lose yourself
Silence your mind
Hypnotic spells
In 4/4 time
Take your comfort in the darkness
After suffering the day
Find your solace on the dance floor
Let the shadows heal your pain
Stomp on the floor
Rage to the beat
This rhythm cures you
Building the heat
Shut down your mind
Feel this relief
This pressure fading
This pure release
Four-on-the-floor
Breaking the chain
This pounding drum
Numbing your pain
The flashing strobe
Reset your state
Slowing your breath
Leave behind your hate

The Awakened
You told us
To keep our mouths shut
You told us
To keep our eyes closed
But what you made
Was never enough
Never too far
Never opposed
But something’s stirring
In the water
Something rising
From the deep
You stole from the workers
You stole from the forsaken
Now our vengeance, it is certain
Now that we are the awakened
You told us
To keep our heads down
You told us
To focus on work
But what you take
Is not what you earn
What you steal
Is money to burn
I’m not your drone
I’m not your slave
I’m not your product
Now I’m awake

Pressure to Break!

Spend my days on a concrete floor
Trading my name for a salary score
Cardiac rhythm on an endless shift
Working my hands to the bone for this
I got money to make
I got money to earn
We give blood for the pay
We get oil to burn
How many lives can the system shake?
Increase the output!
Increase the rate!
How much stress can the system take?
Pressure to build!
Pressure to break!
Keep the line running for another day
Increase the output!
Increase the rate!
How much stress can the system take?
Pressure to build!
Pressure to break!
Push myself for the company load
Wasting my life on an endless road
Punish my body on assembly lines
Another body sold to the factory fire
Systolic tension
Mechanic stress
No time to breathe
No time to rest
The pump is failing
The line must run
The pump is failing
The damage done

RENT

I don’t want have this talk
I don’t want to bow my head
I know this is not the first time
I know this won’t be the end
But I
I don’t know how
To make this work
To make this living
I need more time
So I can do the work
So I can get the pay
So I can give to you
I can’t pay the rent
The debt is calling
I can’t pay the rent
The day is done
I got nothing to spend
My money is time
I can’t pay the rent
But I’ve got none
I don’t have a place to go
I don’t have a better plan
I know that the price is rising
I know it’s supply and demand
But I
I don’t know how
To make this work
To make this living
Every day I die a little more
Every day behind a little more
Every day I sink a little more
Every day I die a little more
The clock is ticking

Civil Disobedience
I refuse to comply
I refuse to submit
I won’t stand on your line
I won’t cease or desist
I am resistant
I am defensive
I am civil disobedience
I will defy your command
I am civil disobedience
I will decide where I stand
I won’t show you my hands
No, I won’t back away
I wont honor your badge
I won’t clear out this space
