The Degenerate Manifesto
Boy is absolutely terrified
Of how lucky he has been so far in life
And boy is still absolutely unspoiled
So he feels there's no need for him to go and preemptively hide
But he is not right
He seen the world
Like, it was a dream
Through rose tinted glasses
So nothing was bleak
He never knew
How quick he'd lose faith
Boy becomes man
In the space of a few days
When he's made
When he's made
So tell me
How's that man to avoid violence
Even when he tries his best
Ambushed and approached by it
Until it becomes self defence
The degenerate manifesto
To show him who the real "men" are in this world so
He'd sue the world
If it would bring him relief
Held back from breaking
Beyond reality
He never knew
How hate can be raised
Boy becomes man
In the space of a few days
When he's made
When he's made
How can anything still make sense
To the man the world is against
Yet he will not stoop to the cowardice
So he's a man that I greatly respect
Under such pressure I would surely surrender
And die to those degenerate soldiers
He'd sue the world
If it would bring him relief
Held back from breaking
Beyond reality
He never knew
How hate can be raised
Boy becomes man
In the space of a few days
When he's made
Man he is absolutely desensitised
To everything going on around him in his everyday life
Of how lucky he has been so far in life
And boy is still absolutely unspoiled
So he feels there's no need for him to go and preemptively hide
But he is not right
He seen the world
Like, it was a dream
Through rose tinted glasses
So nothing was bleak
He never knew
How quick he'd lose faith
Boy becomes man
In the space of a few days
When he's made
When he's made
So tell me
How's that man to avoid violence
Even when he tries his best
Ambushed and approached by it
Until it becomes self defence
The degenerate manifesto
To show him who the real "men" are in this world so
He'd sue the world
If it would bring him relief
Held back from breaking
Beyond reality
He never knew
How hate can be raised
Boy becomes man
In the space of a few days
When he's made
When he's made
How can anything still make sense
To the man the world is against
Yet he will not stoop to the cowardice
So he's a man that I greatly respect
Under such pressure I would surely surrender
And die to those degenerate soldiers
He'd sue the world
If it would bring him relief
Held back from breaking
Beyond reality
He never knew
How hate can be raised
Boy becomes man
In the space of a few days
When he's made
Man he is absolutely desensitised
To everything going on around him in his everyday life
