lyrics

I’m here to shake up all the thoughts that you would think about me pissin’ with my pen to highlight walls of penitentiary,
The freedom that i seek was never really made for me ill make a meek reactionary plea among a million sheep,
Look around the hive and try and tell me that you’re really free, and drive your car you financed while you try to pay your mortgage fees,
You’re bumble bees, bumbling to the bumble queen, the hive depends on tendency to do just as the queen believes.

I go to stores and use the paper they outsource and in return they source the food that fuels a greater place to store,
I deplore the proletariat, breathing down their nose at us, hyenas with a taste for blood, can we put their taxes up, raise them up, fuck em up, keep em in the gutter bruv, don’t let up, push em down, feet are fixed to festered ground,

Here’s the thing, I never really gave a shit about fitting in to everything that dead men tried to put me in, I’m alien, fairy man, came here from a different clan, see the ground from space, and you will see the craters salient.

Your attention is span is governed by a wider plan to keep your thoughts in line with the awareness of a cave man,
The grand plan is to keep you people quiet, they call that blissful ignorance,
As long as you don’t realise you aren’t happy till you’re illnesses,
Have caught up to match, your physical lack, of having the tact, to all out attack,
Unless you are black,
Then shut up,
There's no place for you here.

The Aussie politician is an interesting beast, to say the least,
The last 5 leaders weren’t voted in, they were placed,
We are governed by a playground filled with criminals they’re shanking their best mate if they can linger in the rat race.
So what’s the current choice they’ve left us with,
Turn face to a bull, and keep the corporates in their higher tower,
Stay short of a bill, but be governed by quiet coward,
A rock and empty place, that a country couldn’t fill.


You don’t get it do you,
Listen closely now to what I say,
The day that you were born,
Was the day they took your first day,


What would you say if I would tell you life was temporary,
Currently your vision is as if your time is really plenty,
Your time is measured let me paint a picture listen fairly,
Mathematically your 80 years is more like under 30,

24 hours is less when 8 or 9 for work is taken
8 or 9 for sleepin’ gotta rest before you’re waken
That means that 6 is left to take care of your kids
Groom them carefully so they can join you in the trap the boss is makin’,

I know a little girl who’d tell you that the life you’re faking,
Doesn’t make your death a less intense absence of wealth you’ve taken,
What is the worth of drivin’ round your foreign car, your house is big enough for all of us,
A man-made brick and mortar haven.

What if I told you that our past was riddled with the slavers,
Taking Aboriginals and placing them with human traders,
What if I told you that the life you now participate in,
Makes you just as slaven as the blacks that you are still betrayin’

You don’t get it do you,
Listen closely now to what I say,
The day that you were born,
Was the day they took your first day,

Why would you wake up in the morning dread the day ahead as if you’re dead,
Your choice is made the moment that you let your heart defeat your head,
The paper chasers chase a maker made of plastic poison threads,
My goal is not like those you know I wanna help my foes instead.

I’ll never allow myself to be bound,
I’ll spin em around, I’ll fly on a cloud,
I’m makin it up, as I go around,
My ultimate goal, to shake the ground.

I’m lookin around,
I hate what I see,
I’m different to you,
I’m chasin’ a dream,

I’m trapped in a city with nothing to eat but my spirit and mind can take down a king

.

You don’t get it do you,
Listen closely now to what I say,
The day that you were born,
Was the day they took your first day,
