Iron Eagle
01:59
|
|||
|
Self-centered imperialist culture
Totally blind to their own mistakes
First they steal our lands, exterminate our races
From our blood and sweat your profit has stains
Ironic how everything repeats itself
Nothing has been learned
We watch the same mistakes being made over again
The iron eagle, it has landed
Irreparable damage
No apologies
Pure demonstration of power
Total desolation
Crucifying immigrants
Without understanding
The process it's originated
By this same culture
Selective freedom
Selective justice

Personification
02:01
|
|||
|
You're a stereotype, a caricature
personification of a class
reproducing the worst of it's behavior
blaming everyone else for your failures
It's too naive to believe
That we all have equal chances
so proud to talk about how you succeeded
but you never had to struggle for anything
don't tell me I don't try hard enough
don't try to sell me inequality as overcome
always searching for the victim role
matter of fact, you have a lot to feel sorry for
You're ignoring history
you're ignoring facts
so discrepant diference
that you treat as irrelevant
Who doesn't want to pose as a winner?
Who doesn't want to tell a sad story?

Outcast
01:17
|
|||
|
I want to make something very clear
Your acceptance means nothing to me
Your standards, your rules
You better keep it to you
I won't shape myself to fit
Be like you is something I'll never be
Your world never accepted me
For who I am or what I choose
I will remain with my convictions
This is something I'll never lose
I won't give in to pressure
I refuse your pattern
Your opinions
They never mattered

Class War
00:55
|
|||
|
No time or place to be naive
It's us against them
No tolerance for tyranny
It's us against them
I won't lose another second
Seeing the rope burst on the side that is weak
I'm not in the middle
I'm your complete opposite
Equality is a threat to your greed
To your vanities I won't submit
All your traps are set
But we're not defeated yet

Caught In The Web
02:04
|
|||
|
More time wasted
In no man's land
Everything is too fast
Nothing made to last
What you call freedom
It's only a prison
Wasting your days
Locked in a cage
Promoting a distorted self image
Postures that you don't have
Satisfied with an illusion
Happy with the unreal
There's no dialogue
Only affirmations
Every contact in life now
It's a one-side conversation
Dictating behavior
Programming a new reality
Redefined priorities
Won't fulfil your needs
|

New Dark Age
01:52
|
|||
|
Without knowing your real identity
The need to be classified arises
You develop the role they expect from you
Acceptance leaded by fitting stereotypes
Can no longer distinguish what's real
From what was pre produced
Adopted or originated?
It was imposed on you
You took the easy way
Because you never really knew what to do
You never wanted to walk away
From what was assigned to you
Pleasure and delight
In consumption of disgrace
There is no free choice
Following the path already traced
There's no responsability
When the script is already written
reality is not enough
to sustain your existence
The comfortable role of spectator
Self made slaves
We brought to ourselves
This new dark age
|

Truth
00:10
|
|||
|
the truth of the streets, the truth of the earth
the dispossessed will make themselves heard
those who have nothing walk among us
the eternal, primal and universal truth
|
||||
8. |
Trapped
00:31
|
|||
|
Performing a single function
Maintainence of the status quo
Perpetuation of a hierarchical system
Creating and molding new slaves (servants of the elite)
the same dominant class possessing the power
No critical sense developed
|
||||
9. |
Money
02:06
|
|||
|
you control the reins
you dictate the rules
I only take my chances
and even die for you
Just a little more
just for a short time
like there was some praise or honor
on daily self sacrifice
your cheap talk, your mind games conceal
creating a sense of need
your empty promise of improvement
is all that I can see
they're willing to do everything to have you
I can't escape you
you're in everything around me
