Another Victim

compassionless culture
taught to indulge in sin
at the mercy of our instincts
we never look past our skin
the love of two beings
a beauty we seek to deprave
lust is now what rules us
and its lust thats made us slaves
lives lost to this pestilence
suffer from our own ignorance
educate...for the cure is knowing
prepare for judgement's coming
our minds so diluted
with delusions of no consequence
the will to take when we want it
is the will that could
kill our very existence
dealt this hand with no second chance
feel the wrath of our actions
as our past makes its fatal grasp

the pedagogy of patriarchy
your violent gender identity
the roles of this establishment
are opression's reinforcement
masculinity breeds misogyny
and a tradition of supremacy
ascribed world dominator
hedonistic perpetrator
masked with silence
expressed in violence
men-deny femininity
women-accept dependancy
objects of brutality
and compulsive heterosexuality
stop...now
liberation is gained when
roles are not maintained
forced assimilation since birth
perpetuation, degradation of worth

i wear the X as a guide
to brighten the path
of a world of darkness
falling before me
i wear the X as a symbol of war
i strive to live against
the demons of lost hope
i will not fall into line
like so many before me
i will not succumb to the lies
like so many before me
i will not surrender myself
like so many before me
from the ashes of a failed revolution...
here i stand
convicted to succeed
where others have failed
my mind is my one true weapon
my one true threat
the one last wrench in the machine

you make laws so that
resistance wont be tolerated
but your murder is
systematically perpetuated
the lies that you tell us
have enslaved us all for years
to me your laws mean nothing
now learn what is to live in fear
you must burn in the
fires of hell
that youve created
your fate has been chosen
if you will not see the violent truth
you will see no peace
you will see no peace
confront the truth
your violent truth
now the table turns
our time is now
