Mother Land
All that I've learned, there's no skeleton holding up truth
All that I've learned is it's a crapshoot
People get killed for no reason
People get sent to jail that didn't do anything wrong
So what's the point
Where is the justice in this cruelty
Of widespread punitive power fantasy
The American way
We're not okay
Today we will deconstruct
An ego poisoned by a culture that doesn't want you
To extend outside of yourself
We're all struggling to pay rent
Struggling to get out of bed
Struggling to balance all that races through our heads
Is there an answer
What even is the question
It's all so goddamn disorienting
That's what they want, they rely on us to fail
The ruling class is lounging as the world spirals downward
Grappling with chaos
Grappling with pain
Grappling with tragedy every single fucking day
How do we survive after we realize
All this conventional knowledge we have been surrounded by
Our entire lives
Was a complete and total bad faith lie
All that I've learned is it's a crapshoot
People get killed for no reason
People get sent to jail that didn't do anything wrong
So what's the point
Where is the justice in this cruelty
Of widespread punitive power fantasy
The American way
We're not okay
Today we will deconstruct
An ego poisoned by a culture that doesn't want you
To extend outside of yourself
We're all struggling to pay rent
Struggling to get out of bed
Struggling to balance all that races through our heads
Is there an answer
What even is the question
It's all so goddamn disorienting
That's what they want, they rely on us to fail
The ruling class is lounging as the world spirals downward
Grappling with chaos
Grappling with pain
Grappling with tragedy every single fucking day
How do we survive after we realize
All this conventional knowledge we have been surrounded by
Our entire lives
Was a complete and total bad faith lie
