everything around me is holding me back
how am i supposed to stay on track?
constrain the mind, hold back your thoughts
ancient traditions, universal truth
is that all my life is to you?
don't want to reason with them
but times change and i guess so do i
the emotions running through my brain
but it never stays the same
it never stays the same

the foundation that we share
a common goal towards which we strive
how will i see through the day
when you take away my means to survive
backs up against the wall
together we stand strong
fueled by a rigtheous rage
we know we can't be wrong
marching forward
together we stand as one
back up against the wall
together we stand strong
YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN

force of production

your worth is measured in what you produce
workers have nothing but their chains to lose (x2)
injustice around you can easily be explained
if you look to where power has been gained
he who holds the power
is he who holds the means of production
the ruling class seeks only to uphold their privileges
turning you into a machine by commodifying work
he fears you will rise up
and reach class consciousness
break the curse of the proletariat
turn the enslavement into
a reformed workers state
a conscious revolution of the working class

responsibilities

you tell me to stay safe
that I have to watch my back
and then you wonder why I don't trust you
is it such a surprise that i'm cautious and afraid
when i'm under the threat of constant attack
for i'm powerless in this system of opression
this culture of misogyny's breeding hate
because everywhere I look is the face of my enemy
you tell me to relax
you tell me to lighten up
you tell me to smile
you tell me to laugh
but fail to realize
that i don't exist for your sake
i won't do shit for you
when you make me responsible
for my own safety
every man becomes a potential threat
so keep your fucking dick in check

hrough thick and thin
our words stood strong
the struggle, the fight to overcome
words spoken so true but easily forgotten
was it just a joke to you?
you told me that they were weak
that they lacked integrity
now look at yourself and what you've become
through thick and thin
our words stood strong
the struggle, the fight to overcome
words spoken so true but easily forgotten
was it just a joke to you?
you told me you were nothing like them
that you always think for yourself
and now you're just one of them
another wasted life
what happened to you?
what happened to you?
what happened to the
