Comin' Down On You
she stands, a target behind the counter and she
burns a little more with every encounter spit on again and again 'till
her eyes are bloodshot and now they're slowly sunken' in "there's gotta
be more to life than this" she whispers under her breath as she pulls another
double shift she's 21 a single mother of two and this fuckin' dead end
job barely buys enough food it's slowly killing me, i've gotta go cause
i can feel my blood pumpin' like the stereo i've kept it bottled up inside
but now it's gonna blow. so... what are you gonna do when it comes to you
10 years of fuckin' fast food. i've been shot at twice and always talked
down to unappreciated, misunderstood overworked, underpaid dodging bullets
in the hood one thing i've learned is that this life's not for me i can
never be a functional member of society the only thing that's been keeping
me sane is playing these songs cause it eases the pain
Nothing To Lose
he's runnin' wild through the streets at night
but he's hiding in the shadows by the break of day he's got a clip-on spyderco
knife but it's just for keeping the wolves at bay. 2 am fucked up again
he's living with the bottle cause he's livin' with the pain insane poking
veins he's standing in the rain he's got nothing to lose and everything
to gain unwanted, unforgiving he's tired of fighting and he's tired of
living here, swigging beer with nothing to fear he's got nothing to lose...
so he's always winning he's suffocating - the pain can be excruciating
and liberating - it helps him forget the world he's hating now he's waiting
- and there won't be any negotiating he's got nothing to lose, he's been
bloodied and he's been bruised, he ain't taking any more abuse he's had
enough of their institutions and all the rules he was told to obey they
offered no solutions so he hit the street before they put him away in a
deprogramming youth care center to rid him of his insubordinate ways "you
know that boy ain't right" is what you'll hear his parents say down on
the world and down on his luck he's got nothing to lose he don't give a
fuck about shit, takin' risks in the street throwing bricks with nothing
to lose... you drove him to this trying hard to forget the past he's sleeping
under the overpass of i-95, just trying to survive just waiting for the
moon to arrive
Haymarket Square
no one's gonna hold them down today they're ready
to fight for their rights on may 3rd, 1888 chicago burned with the fire
they lit the workers were on strike cause money's tight the pigs were out
and looking for a fight they opened fire into the crowd a worker was hit
and he went down no one's gonna hold them down no! they're gonna burn this
fuckin' town august spies denounced capitalism but he urged no violence
he was addressing a crowd of workers the pigs ordered him silenced a bomb
was thrown and the sirens wailed a pig laid dead and a were jailed that
day the system failed you know it never fails if you think you can crush
these ideas that are gaining ground more each day if death is the penalty
for proclaiming truth then i'll proudly and defiantly pay four men were
sentenced to death to set an example to all the rest who would dare to
stand up and protest the injustices we all detest
Sacco And Vanzetti
"long live anarchy!" were sacco's last words their
cries of freedom were surpressed and they were never heard. guilty only
of their beliefs, and their foreign births. no solid concrete evidence
of being guilty... cause they weren't. in an atmosphere of defiance of
worldwide protests and appeals, they were electrocuted. their only crimes
were their ideals. "only with liberty can men rise and be complete. we're
the black cats and the terror of many" to all oppressors we bring defeat!
they held true to their beliefs until the bitter end. their pointless fucking
execution was some kind of sick revenge! fuck you!
Alba
black beans on the stove, malta in my hand, tears
in alba's eyes as she dreams of a far away land "i've been stripped from
my country, i've been spit on by my race". i said, "it'll be okay" as i
wiped a tear from her face and she said" no quieroir la mentira que vivo
aqui!" "yo quiero volver a mi pais!" "you'll never know the pain i feel
inside, i've been striped from my country and robbed of my pride". i don't
know where i'm gonna go but i don't belong here!
