Eradication

by After The Fall

IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT! I know what your thinking, is this really happening, how can it be, how could this shit happen to me? Well here it is, something we could never expect. Here it comes, sit and wait patiently. IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT! Since the day that we were born we all always have been forced to believe what we were told, what they were taught before us. Their history books and newspapers exist as means for them to brainwash, and impose ignorance. IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT! Until the day that we die, we will be part of this lie that is all we've ever known, we'll never know the reasons why. They told you that things would improve, and that you have the right to choose how you're going to live your life, it's up to you to win or lose. Like soldiers we march in line, like each cattle goes to it's slaughter. Like soldiers we do as we're told, as will our sons and our daughters.

This is the land of the free where we celebrate one god and country. They will never work for us in accord, they'll always work against us. This is the land of the free where the homeless die, cold and hungry. They will never truly help us progress, protect or defend us. Beat down to our knees, broken bones and blind eyes begging them please, don't force feed us these lies. This is the land of the free where children are beaten, and women are raped. They will never hear our cries for help, they'll never make this change. This is the land of the free where prisioners will never escape. They'll never see the outside world again, that is the price that they pay. Beat down to our knees, broken bones and blind eyes begging them please, don't force feed us these lies, kissing their feet, asking for forgiveness. We are all sheep, all serving their interest. Silenced and deafened, unaware of the sounds of murder and rape, and abuse all around. Blinded and tortured until they say. Slaughtered and killed unless we obey. We never thought that we would see the day. We never thought that things would end this way. BROKEN BONES AND BLIND EYES!

I hear about it almost everyday, another terribly history has made front page news or CNN, and adult has hurt a child again. No matter how much we have learned, or how we've progressed nothing can justify the cruel acts upon our children, murder, abuse, molestation. You disgust me! I know than an eye for an eye will leave us both blind. It's hard to justify killing but you make me think twice. No matter how much we have learned, or how we've progressed nothing can justify the cruel acts upon our children, murder, abuse o molestation. How could you bring yourself to hurt a child? Do you deserve another chance of a fair trial? If it were up to me, or if you hurt my family, do you want to know what i would do?

I'm so fucking sick and tired of being tired and sick. Things just seem to get worse and worse the older you get. It's hard to be happy when everyone's so fucking upset. It's hard to get ahead when you're falling further into debt. I'm only twenty-four, i always imagined something more, i never thought that things would be this hard. It's hard to give it my best short when selfish acts get you to the top. I never thought that green paper would be able to control my life. Who really knows what to do? I know i'm just as scared as you. You are not the only ones who feels like giving up. We're all hoping for better days. We're all hoping that things will change. We're all fucked up in our own ways. Stagnation is here to stay.

This is not your business, or your new market bought and sold. This sounds like nothing new, and this generic shit is getting old. You're cashing in on what we have known all along, to trendy kids who will buy your merch, point fingers, and sing along. I say fuck your hype and fuck your stupid trends, we've been here all along and we'll be here in the end. When we smoke clears and you're onto bigger things you'll be forgotten, or old news say the least. You're the new flavor of the month, a fashion/trendsetter. You've got mosh parts and sing alongs, can't you do any better? Since when did we need managers or agents to make our bids? When all you need is to do it yourself and put heart into it!
