1.
Halted construction zone Hotwired a backhoe Cell tower taken out from below The reign of the vigilante begins Truckload of leaded gas Surgical gloves and mask Stolen employee credential badge The reign of the vigilante begins
2.
The kids in a two parent state Content to play favorites and supplicate And long for the glory days And act like a false knight of hope didn’t pave the way Gaza - 500 children dead, hospitals bombed Billions in weapons to SAAF - while Yemenis starve Unmanned aerial gunships snuffing out innocent lives And meanwhile back on the homefront Thousands of families torn apart Ripped from their lives and deported   A typical legacy of abuse From Clinton to Bolton Here’s your Nobel Prize

2039 01:25
Opposition relegated to ghettos No vote for a violent felon Entrance to the ivory pipeline closed for repairs Kids thrown into a lottery while granddad’s wages go to armored poachers Daddy works for the racist machine Baby boy made the Ivy League Europium lights an unblemished face As he tweets about “who needs a gun?” And the sun sets again over Fred Hampton’s grave Who do you blame? What’s the property value on somewhere you can feel safe to ignore the other sycophants steeping in shame Catch you in 2039 New files declassified You’ll be covering your children’s eyes The only safety you prioritized
4.
Cockroaches silently make the rounds Under the twisted husk of an office park And disappear into an ocean of rubble Black from the ash in a permanent sundown And all that can be heard Through the frigid darkness Are the chattering teeth Of an unwanted god
5.
A victim bemoaning the stepping on heads You gather your footing and start the ascent On the backs of young miners you type up your rant To pay your apartment that drives up the rent I hope that in heaven we’re grandfathered in Cuz no IRA can atone for these sins No ethical consumption for the dim You’re lucky it’s so easy to hate yourself After you take what you want from everyone else I hope that in heaven we’re grandfathered in Cuz no living trust can atone for these sins No ethical consumption for the dim You’re lucky it’s so easy to hate yourself After you take what you want from everybody else Save your breath You made the beds they’re lying in Side with death Motherfuckers
