Medium 02:43
MEDIUM Bull shit by the pile The worst kind of scum alive Teach them they're right Teach them to fear, to hate, to waste their time How great the lie Escapes debate and becomes naturalized False smiles, crazed eyes Coral the sheep and keep them right in line reason pushed aside absolute truth will keep them satisfied pour out your insides pull out your pockets pay the rent on time "listen to me" "i'm closer to Him than you'll ever be" "fall on your knees" "make me the ruler of our fantasy" "I'm your life line"
2.
Capital 04:18
CAPITAL Tax the peasants feed the Kings Reward the greed admire the rings Create a culture of petty thieves  Blame the children. Make them pay For your blunderous mistakes Protect yourself from any blame Repossess the real estate Fucking slum lord, raise your rates Deny the masses blame the State Buy and sell, inflate the worth Manipulate. Bring out the worst Fuck the poor attack the weakest first Capital.

Four Vials 04:43
FOUR VIALS Get dressed in useless armor Depressed. Severely altered Look my best. Shave the age away Emotionless. I know the truth and that it's here to stay Keep the pain at bay Force a smile and wave Eat the pills. Pull the curtains back Motor skills. Body's slow to react Keep the pain. Keep the pain at bay Work again. Work another day

THE ARTIST'S DIVINE INSPIRATION Switch it on. Force down the history down Find your medium Start some fires, then put them out Same frown. Common subjects Paint the same town with different brushes Your idea of beauty Fashion Kings out of jesters Pen the dreams of self made saviors Make believe we are the chosen ones Snakes and thieves, and all the rest of us When we pretend that it's from within We perpetuate a dying trend Dig. Dig deep and see that we are all empty Write about love. Write about your tears Dumb it down some. Accessibility calms our fears Paint a picture through the eyes of the rich Are they your audience? Are those the ones receiving your gift?
