lyrics

Socially acceptable dependencies
Crippling communities
Not where you want to be
Wondering if your hands are bound or free

As depression is a constant weight
Brought a culture of fucked up injustices, and systematic poverty
Helplessness breeds in a moralist, capitalist society

But it's our wasted time, self worth and potential
These things take their toll, physical and mental

It's this cycle of dependency, that keeps us in cages
Poor, overwhelmed and angry, with numerous chemical chases

Striving on sickness helplessness breeds
Organize, destroy

Permissible addictions as if they like to pick and choose
A socially acceptable way to escape the anxiety and pressure to find something to do
And feed yourself as a wage slave, which is a reality they create

This culture
Is a constant weight
There must be a better way
A better way to shake..

This from
My Mind
Organize
Destroy

This system doesn't function off of healthy people
making autonomous decisions for themselves
This society strives on sickness, sick of heart, sick in mind
fight this disease we're connected with everything

If it destroys - Destroy it
If it's violent - Take it out
If it nurtures - Take care of it
If it creates - Engage
