Meritocracy
03:06
|
|||
once you're born
a dice roll will define your destiny
it's a matter of who you are
Did you get lucky with the nationality?
the elite doesn't give a fuck
your condition doesn't matter
either you're born with a winner's chance
or life will beat you with its iron hammer
money, money, money
meritocracy for those who have it
money, money, money
meritocracy for those who have it
money, money, money
meritocracy for those who bought it
heritage, privileges
gambling in safety
school choice, allowance
cool toys, college
it ain't everyone's life recipe
fuck!
heritage, privileges
gambling in safety
school choice, allowance
cool toys, college
The garden of Eden requires wealth!
yeah, reality is harsh motherfucker
take a look around and see where you’re standing at

Pro-Life
02:40
|
|||
Violence on the streets
Death upon the thieves
Doesn't matter if no one sees
God forgives, let me drop on my knees!
I'm a "pro-life"
Don't you understand?
One more without a name
Who cares? it ain't mine to blame
Killing is a sin
Unless something happens to me
Doesn't matter if no one sees
God forgives let me drop on my knees
I’m a "Pro-life"
but keep it away from me!
One more without a name?
Who cares? Well I have no blame
May god show us the way
Oh wait! Is she family?

Concrete Tales
03:16
|
|||
first it bends and then it breaks
faith in justice, plans, debates
it all seem to converge at a point in time
when they exported whip and imported lives
a shattered family in a gray port
a bullet hole under the table
it all began in the same fact
the struggle is real, you gotta see it
don't stop, but open up your damn eyes
a thousand tales under the street lights
first it bends and then it breaks
faith in policies, candidates
it all seem to converge at a point in time
when they exported diseases amid a fight
we got to know just how to justify
why hunger exists among the satellites
don't stop, but open up your damn eyes
a thousand tales under the street lights
broken clocks around us
maybe time also lost the pride
see the youth passing by your window
and everything it was denied
|

Hate
02:04
|
|||
Is it legal to think about death?
killing someone... but just a thought yeah
the bitter taste of a hate!
warm blood flows in your body
cold sweat, chills and a headache
the bitter taste of a hate!
the hungry mouth of a hate!

Rule Spitter
04:38
|
|||
sitting for hours, reading about and watching them all
as they spit on my screen
using the power of speech to impress you and me
but we don't care
Does it make any sense at all?
sharing knowledge they dream about
Does it make any sense at all?
sharing knowledge they dream about
spit another rule!
spit another rule!
spit another rule!
spit another rule!

Legacy
03:53
|
|||
we're kinda stuck in the middle age
a daily dose of fear and few of rage
weak and exhausted we need some air
but what we breathe isn't ours to spare
we're about to fail yeah
tomorrow again
we're about to fail yeah
tomorrow again
from an action in disguise
stinking legacy arise
old fashioned knights are in the way
progress upside down again
as we're stuck in the middle age
a daily dose of fear and few of rage
weak and exhausted we need some air
but what we breathe isn't ours to spare
we're about to fail yeah
tomorrow again
we're about to fail yeah
tomorrow again

Madness
02:30
|
|||
dawn of a new day
choices must be made
things should be simple although I'm afraid
too much to say
keeps me awake
Where is the light to guide us through the haze?
do you feel it?
thoughts have their weight
How do I get up and begin my routine?
madness!
how does it feel to know that you're stuck in this
madness!
you live like a hunter but you're just a target
madness!
how does it feel to know that you're stuck in this
madness!
you live like a hunter but you're just a target

Schemes
02:31
|
|||
far from the bridge that unite two small towns
close to the rich and the power till it runs out
face that changes depending on the wind
that is how you influence another kid
it sounds so good on the video
But what is there behind?
it sounds so good on the video
but what you got?
what you got?
below the surface
where deals are signed
you know there's no place
for you and I
you know there's no place
for you and I
for you and I

Shadow of a Needle
03:50
|
|||
always on the side of everything
far from books and history
a character that doesn't have any importance at all
addicted to attention, you seek a spot in the light, but you're just a shadow
shadow of a needle
shadow of a needle
spreading lies
shouting at the void
a character that doesn't have any importance at all
addicted to attention, you need a spot in the light, but you're just a shadow
shadow of a needle
shadow of a needle
you're just so small
you're just so small
just a shadow of a needle
just a shadow of a needle
just a shadow of a needle

Anger
05:13
|
|||
Anger!
has another taste
it builds up
then it gets released
it will find you
clench your fist
its an evil feeling that must exist
you do have it
deep inside your brain
its a trap
waiting for the prey
it will find you
clench your fist
its an evil feeling that must exist
it will find you
clench your fist
its an evil feeling that must exist

Parasites Acting
03:44
|
|||
although it's clear
well known to me
it's still bothers when you think
where you are, where you've been
what you want and what you need
for a bit of lust, you reject your trust
and pretend that it's nothing
but you know what
although we fight
we are parasites acting
so you feed the fire
with bare hands
and let burn
although it's clear
well known to me
it's still bothers when you think
where you are, where you've been
what you want and what you need
for a bit of lust, you reject your trust
and pretend that it's nothing
but you know what
although we fight
we are parasites acting
but you know what
although we fight
we are parasites acting
parasites acting
so you feed the fire
with bare hands
and let burn
so you feed the fire
with bare hands
and let burn

Currency
03:46
|
|||
how much of your time you used to pay for what you wanted?
something that won't pay you back with time
Where could you have been?
What could you have done?
is it worth it?
is it worth it?
Do you ask yourself?
Do you even care?
How much of your time do you waste pretending to be someone?
Is it something you really like to do?
then you finally made it
you got your prize, or did it get you?
Do you ask yourself?
Do you even care?
