Nun W/ A Gun 02:08
lyrics
It's a Nun With a Gun Not my definition Of smiles and fun If we had it your way we’d give money everyday Religions trying to control me and they just want to control me So keep me blind, Don’t let me see Religions trying to control me The culture mold It's growing cold I can't escape its catching hold In the bathroom seats turning green I can’t escape i want to scream Societies trying to control me and they just want to control me Don’t keep me blind, i want to see Societies trying to control me Mr. President I thought you cared the real powers have you scared Shake the country of its change why don't you lower Minimum wage The Corporations are killing me their trying to control me give us freedom, and then we'll see if this is really the land of the free

State of Shock State of the Union Pawn of the greater Not the solution Not the Answer Not the news Mind Confusion (At best propaganda) Not his fault it's ours Because we blame it on the middle man Dope us up with TV/News Don't need the pawn, we want the conman Wheres the action State of the union Stuck behind TV's Ipads Computers (Soaking up shit propaganda Like the rest of them) State of Shock State of the Union State of Shock State of the Union Do your part To lazy to try He’ll do it for me Thats a lie Leave it to us To sit and watch the world die.

Reality 03:40
lyrics
Never Again, the scars will never heal like the soldiers on the street corners fighting for their meals condone your mind with thoughts you don't feel they shout to you, but you don't hear How will you feel? when its your turn when you feel lost what will you learn? Lifes about living be yourself make the risk take the chance Get off the Shelf The helplessness eats you down to the bone you're fighting for a cause but you're all alone you hope someone will hear your cry but realities cold as stone Now you feel like your all alone you feel lost what did you learn Lifes about living be yourself make the risk take the chance Get off the Shelf The real wars not for money oil or the state its for the ordinary people living day by day but you don't see them because the truth is ignored while you're ignorant, there fighting a silent war

Family Reunion 02:16
lyrics
What are we doing? Do we know who we are? We messed things up already And were going to leave a scar Rearrange Rearrange Patience is a Virtue A virtue that is lost Going down the easy path No matter what the cost Rearrange Rearrange Who’s running the ship here? Its time for a change This family’s bound for hell dear Sam We need to rearrange What are we doing? Do we know who we are? We messed things up already And were going to leave a scar Rearrange Rearrange You think you’ve got the answers When the truth is undefined Killing all the rest of us Till we are civilized Rearrange Rearrange Going down a dead end street Who do you think you’ll cheat this time? You’re no uncle of mine

Weak At The Knees 02:16
lyrics
Throw the door, Lock the Keys Do as you mind, its your please you can do it with want, its your ease Your own reality, Weak at the knees Can't stand to be around you, you create your own disease it hangs around you like a cloud of fleas swimming up the current when theres a breeze when are you going to realize we create our own realities Throw the door, Lock the Keys Do as you mind, its your please if you want, its your ease Reality is Weak at the knees Bring the whole world down around you, lets see how much i care Put that shit down on me and then you call it fair try to push the envelope, eventually it will tear when the whole world crumbles around you, can't help you there! Throw the door, Lock the Keys Do as you mind, its your please you can do it with want, its your ease Your own reality, Weak at the knees Throw the door, Lock the Keys Do as you mind, its your please if you want, its your ease Your own reality, Weak at the knees

Out Of Time 01:36
lyrics
Maybe the truth is i'm tired but that tick keeps me hardwired i cant think, i can't see, i can't talk i can't hear i can't just follow, i can't be a leader Out of time! Out of time! Out of time! maybe the truth is a lie maybe our dreams will all die and i can’t imagine the way it would be to forget and let go of time maybe our dreams will come true, and the truth is there’s nothing at all i can do i can’t stop, i can’t stop i can’t stop, i can’t... gotta keep on going, i have to keep up Out of time! Out of time! Out of time! Out of time! Out of time! Out of time!

Taught 03:20
lyrics
Who taught me to hate myself make me think like everyone else desensitize the creative mind Brainwash us, leave us blind Who taught me to hate x4 All my life i've been in school but sure learned more than the golden rule you taught me hate taught me color taught me creed in all the things in life, its money that i need Who taught me to hate x4 Who taught me to hate myself make me think like everyone else desensitize the creative mind Brainwash us, leave us blind (x2, but words twice as fast) Who taught me to hate It wasn't the segregated school system taught me to follow rules to not question authority it surely wasn't growing up in an oppressive culture to cut my hair that my lifes set out for me trust in the rules trust in the system trust in the rules trust in the system trust in the law that keeps in the prisoners trust in the rules trust in the system trust in the law that keeps in the prisoners All my life i've been in school but sure learned more than the golden rule who taught me hate taught me color taught me creed in all the things in life, its money that i need Who taught me to hate x4
