Back To Normal
02:30
|

We’re all in this together
Just six feet apart
They call this the new normal
Until the economy restarts
They sold their stocks
Leave us begging for a morsel
They want things to go
back to normal
Back to normal
back to normal
We don’t want your
back to normal
They’re maintaining capital
for multinationals
While covid spreads and
people die every day
Because if it’s viruses for workers
And profits for their bosses
Then I think they should all be
nailed to the crosses
Back to normal,
Back to normal
We’re not going
back to normal
They say the situation’s dire
the world’s on fire
Until the pandemic is endemic
we can’t leave anyone behind
The road ahead is tough
And fraught with danger
Make those in charge
fear our anger

I'm Not Paying Rent
02:12

Raise rent
Gentrify
Parasitic landlords
Landlords are a disease
One landlord owns every
building on this block
You’ll never own a house,
You add value to their stock
But the buildings are half vacant
The city gave consent
They keep these buildings empty
so that they can raise your rent
Landlords are a disease
But no one asks why
these buildings scrape the sky
And then they tear them
when their barren
To keep the neighbours gentrified
The rent goes up
but wages stay the same
Like the roaches and the bedbugs
We crawl back
from whence we came
Renovicted,
They moved into your house
The market’s looking better
They can finally kick you out
re-Listed
After a couple months
Everything’s still broken
But the prices always mount
No savings
I give most of my cheque
You’re not a good person
You get no respect
So fuck you
You make us live like this
You’re the lowest of the low
You’re a fucking piece of shit
They don’t give a fuck
about you or me.
It’s the first of the month,
and you better have their money.
Raise rent
Gentrify
Parasitic landlords

Walk Home Wasted
03:02
|
|||
Ripped and roaring
I can talk the talk
When the home-brew hits
I can barely walk
I speak too fast
I’m always talking over
Chalked up lines I blast
Because I’m never sober
My pickled liver
Has been picked apart
The speed I’m living
Is the pace of my heart
My breath is bad,
But I can’t taste it
I’m all by myself
I walk home wasted
The night feels young but
I’m heading home,
people walk their dogs
While I walk alone
When I cross the street
I’m never cautious
when I spoke to you
I was fucking obnoxious
My plans fell through,
My guide is double vision
Home’s the only goal
And I’m on a mission
I’m freezing cold
should have worn a scarf
Feel my stomach grumble
And I drop a barf
Feeling better now
But I can barely see
I’m so sick from poison,
I was poisoned by me
FUCK

Anxious Obsessions
02:16
|
|||
I can’t take it
Like a song That’s stuck in my head
It’s a voice Of how awful I am
I always feel So anxious and depressed
dark thoughts can not be suppressed
I think of times That friends cast me out
lies spread Without a shadow of doubt
Those friends That never had my back
I ruminate Into a panic attack

Bad Dreams
02:36
|
|||
Violence and horror, anxieties of death
My chest feels deflated, a shortness of breath
Unhinged emotions, I live them again
Nightmares, dark feelings I want them to end
Chaos and anger, the memories come back
The fear becomes normal, I’m under attack
Watched by a demon, I’m trapped in my head
My nightmares they haunt me, when I go to bed
Awake I feel fearful of sleeping again
Insomnia sets in and I just pretend That
tonight will be different, tonight I’ll be fine
I try to suppress it, but it fucks with my mind
Silence, it scares me, alone with my thoughts
They go over and over, and it’s never enough
I relive my worst moments, I wish I was dead
I’ve lost every fight that I’ve had in my head

Underneath
04:06
|
|||
I know I keep complaining
This thing we’ve all been through
A year like no other
locked up in our rooms
Well I live in a basement
It’s not really great
Sunlight for an hour
between 7 and 8
The ceiling’s so low
I can’t even stand
5 foot eleven is
Too tall of a demand
Asbestos and spiders
Radon and rats
I need to get away
I’m waiting to come back
I hate it
I’m trapped inside
I’m stuck with me
My world is my basement
And I, I can’t breath
Underground
Underneath
Are you really getting better
if there’s no one else to see?
I made a big choice
decided not to drink
What they don’t fucking tell you
Is you start to fucking stink
I thought I’d be calm
If I smoked a bunch of weed
But all I do now
Is stare at my feed
Scrolling through the pictures
my eyes glued to a screen
I’ve done so fucking little
I’ve forgotten how to dream
What a great time
To quit all of my vices
Too much time to think
I’m stuck in constant crisis
No drugs or alcohol,
Its been hard for me
life this sober has been
Fucking shitty
To say that I’m bored
Is a fucking understatement
Since silence deafens
I need constant entertainment
The winter’s been cold
Somehow the summer too
I never want to leave my bed
Sleep in ’til after 2
My work at my chair
My phone in my bed
Everything distracts me
I’m drowning in my head
I’m sad and I’m angry
At things that don’t make sense
I want to go outside again
And hang out with my friends
My mental health
Is a travesty
My mind won’t focus
Because of ADD

They Call It Defence
04:20
|
|||
Perpetual war
An illegal occupation
Apartheid state
Enforcing segregation
White phosphorus gas
But no one pays attention
Settlements built
Against Geneva conventions
Hospitals bombed
“It’s their nation they’re defending”
But anywhere else
We call that ethnic cleansing
They’re fascist tyrants
Colonial oppressors
They claim self defence
When they’re the aggressors
Colonial War
Innocent Deaths
An act of aggression
They call it defence
Fuck israeli Apartheid
They Separate families,
Demolish their homes
Use live ammunition
Against throwing stones
Our country’s complicit
We give them aid
Their bombs and their drones
Are Canadian made
We let them blockade food
Limit access to water
We abstain from votes
Condemning their slaughter
Manufactured consent
To strengthen their rule
How do they call it defence
When they’re bombing schools?
They call it defence

Plus Jamais
01:17
|

Les problèmes des autres me trouvent toujours
Je m’investis pour leurs secours
Ils ne peuvent rien-y-fair, donc j’y prend soins
Mais leurs problèmes deviennent les miens
Toujours là pour tout les autres
Mauvaise solution, c’est toute ma faute
Mes intentions son toujours bonnes
J’espère qu’un jour tu me pardonne
Ils prennent avantage
Mais plus jamais

Human Zoo
01:13
|
|||
Their eyes
Are looking straight at you
Their lies
Are advertised as truth
Confidential memoranda
Used to push out propaganda
Echo chambers
won’t echo changes
Round them up,
they’re locked cages
They didn’t think,
no they were told
The poor, the dumb,
far right, the old
They spread their truth,
they say it’s true
They want your thoughts
they’re after you
We’re all locked up
in a human zoo
They know so much,
they know more than you
They can sell you truth,
like a new tv
They’ve sold your thoughts,
to suit their needs
We’re tracked and
traced on GPS
Consume consume,
get less and less
You can’t opt out,
there’s no escape
Who controls our data
control our fate
The future’s looking dark
Their power needs to stop
Without breaking them apart
there’s no escape.
