Abuse of Power

Abuse of power.
Total misuse of authority.
They’ve built you an ivory tower.
It’s killer instinct to dominate.
You tear through crowds smashing up and shattering bones.
Reckless! No self-control.
Showers of violence soak the town.
Mop the streets of innocent blood.
Caught in the crossfire, nowhere to run.
Nothing that you’ve done wrong here.
But still exposed to sheer terror.
Kettling as bystanders feel the wrath,
Fuck cops.
Serve and protect.
Mace you, beat you, while you’re blind.
Serve and protect,
A protester or just a passer-by.
Serve and protect.
Gang violence shielded by law.
Serve and protect,
Police tactics are totally flawed.
Like a tsunami smashing through the streets.
No time for innocents’ retreat.
They don’t care about your involvement.
They just beat you and smash you to the ground.
People speak their voice.
Kept in line bullets and bats.
The armed thugs will arrest you.
If you decide to fight back.
Chasing you down like hordes of pesky rats.
Senseless! No thoughts allowed.
Clobbering the defenceless crowds.
Mashing faces into the street.
Manhunt of civilians with nowhere to flee.
Mindless robots they’ve sent to battle.
To clean the streets of defiant cattle.
Herd the opposing to their death.
Fuck cops!

They Live

They live, they smile, they breathe. On the backburner a society bleeds.
They grin, direct, they rule. We shed our sweat and act the fool.
Tell us to marry and reproduce. Tell us to purchase land, settle down and consume.
Take out loans, accept the terms, then sign the pad with your blood and dirt.
Obey the golden rule. The rich make the rules.
Suffer and suffocate.
Obey the golden rule. The rich make the rules.
They live atop a dark tower of black. Ride a horse as high, if not higher than that.
They hover a black shroud over our eyes, camouflage their sins and keep us in line.
Submit to the tyrants, thicken their power.
The moment we take breath, our first breath is soured.
Obey the golden rule. The rich make the rules.
Suffer and suffocate.
Obey the golden rule. The rich make the rules.
They tell us to
Suffer and suffocate, suffer and suffocate, suffer and suffocate, obey the rules they lay
Tell me to domesticate, tell me its all work no play, tell me what they want, I wont obey the rules they lay
They tell me to accommodate, call me a subordinate, tell me what they want, I wont obey the rules they lay
Follow our rules boy and get back in line
Conforming to me is a waste of fucking time
If you don't listen to us son you'll never succeed
I will never assimilate, I'd rather choke and bleed
Follow
I will never follow
Obey the golden rule. The rich make the rules.
Suffer and suffocate.
Obey the golden rule. The rich make the rules.
They live, they smile, they breathe. On the backburner a society bleeds.
They grin, direct, they rule. We shed our sweat and act the fool.
Tell us keep quiet and enjoy this fucking life that they've provided, keep at bay and keep compliant until we die.
THEY LIVE!
