Repeal




Once they sign it, we will never get out again
Sit forever on the shoulders of our children
Cast our health care in a pit of ruin
And once they've signed it, we will never get out again

They say it's in our interest and it will fix everything
Behind closed doors, they bribed it's passage while their lobbyists sing
Because they're winner today, but our day will come
When we cast them out and leave them all def, blind and dumb
Once they sign it, we will never get out again
Sit forever on the shoulders of our children
Cast our health care in a pit of ruin
And once they've signed it, we will never get out again

Here you have a bill that 70% of tax paying citizens hate
We want it repealed but they try to convince that it's too late
The fact that it's unconstitutional doesn't mean a fucking thing
To them, but to us it means suffocating our dreams

Once they sign it, we will never get out again
Sit forever on the shoulders of our children
Cast our health care in a pit of ruin
And once they've signed it, we will never get out again

**Recording Notes - I programmed the drums with my Zoom 234 drum machine and direct input recorded them.  For the distorted parts, I mic'd a Hughes & Kettner Warp 7 head and a generic cab with a Heil PR20 in Magix at my buddy Jeremy's.  I used a Schecter Diamond Series Damian 7-String.  I used the native distortion on the Warp 7 for one side, and Boss Metal Zone MT-2 for the other side.  Recorded vocals with a Heil PR20 in Pro Tools.  For bass, I direct input an Epiphone EB-0 into Pro-Tools. 

Be Progressive!


Bourgeois inequality
Owners of all the property
Progressives of the proletariat
Marxism is just a lariat
The narrative they try to tell us
Preaches only Social Justice
But history tells us the truth
Despite it, they want us to

Be Progressive
For the Collective
But be subjective
What's their objective
They got tax obsessive
Makes them aggressive
They make our laws excessive
Makes them oppressive 
Yeah!

It's become a youth pandemic
Excited by academics
on naive students with polemic
arguments about systemic
failures of capitalism
but it's a faux aproism
Class war's a fake aphrodism
Promoting Communism 
don't

Be Progressive
For the Collective
But be subjective
What's their objective
They got tax obsessive
Makes them aggressive
They make our laws excessive
Makes them oppressive 
Yeah!

March of the Intellectuals



This nation is breaking, apologies for the taking
The outrage that they're faking, a civil war in the making
They fight the economy instead of letting us fix
Then scream hypocrisy if we manage to lift it
It's like they're trying to break us while telling us that they'll save us
Anti-colonial actions dividing people in factions
Persecuting responsible citizens like they're horrible
While holding up all criminals as those that are honorable

Celebrities standing on the graves of children
Authorities treating us like the villian
Politicians trying to disarm the citizens
Then tell another lie, tell another lie

Don't tell me Marx was right
He failed everything he tried in life
He's nothing but a failure

Don't tell me Marx was right
He failed everything he tried in life
He's nothing but a failure

 Look at the bigger picture, it's easy once your figure
that tearing down the free market enslaves their intended target
They think they know better than us cause Marx and Engels earned their trust
with a manifesto based on hate that divided people on a single trait
They promoted class warfare instead of celebrating success
The promoted collectivism instead of praising the best among us
While preaching unity and practicing segregation
Their bi-polar philosophy is destroying our nation
Think of the hypocrisy of creating a classless society 
with a single ruling class assigning each and every single task
They try to pretend it's freedom they sell in our schools
But it's just propaganda with elites making the rules

Celebrities standing on the graves of children
Authorities treating us like the villian
Politicians trying to disarm the citizens
Then tell another lie, tell another lie

Don't tell me Marx was right
He failed everything he tried in life
He's nothing but a failure

Don't tell me Marx was right
He failed everything he tried in life
He's nothing but a failure
