An Indian
And two dumb hicks
The aptly named
Illiterates
It doesn't matter if you're from the sticks
Or raised by immigrants
Cause if the boot fits
You could become
Illiterates

Bastard Man

You always talk to me
Condescendingly
It’s you against the world
Constant rivalry
Always looking down
And never building up
You think you know it all
And nothing’s ever good enough
You may talk a good game
But truth is you’re a prick
Lying through your teeth
Two faced piece of shit
Though your work is straight
Your heart’s a crooked mess
So quit your bragging
Cause I am unimpressed
Bastard man
Disgruntled till the end

The selfless martyr
Is your character
It helps to insure
Your position of power
But you don’t give a flying fuck
And you never did
It’s all for the clout
It’s all for your image
To validate yourself
You call out
Social capital
Is what it’s always been about
Cause you don’t give a flying fuck
And you never did
It’s all for the clout
It’s all for your image

Addiction

Extreme highs
Extreme lows
Nothing to live for
Nothing to show
Waking up to do it again
Caught in a vicious cycle
That will never end
This is beyond your control
Something so stigmatized
And the world is
Quick to criticize
Instead of trying to empathize
They’ll blame you
And cast you aside
This is beyond your control

Rust Belt Blues
00:53
|
|||
|
Stuck in a place where
If you blink you miss
You can see the world
But it doesn’t know you exist
No future
No hope
Tie a noose with a rope
No future
No hope
Existential dread
It’s so hard to get ahead
What grows goes
And the rest is left for dead
No future
No hope
Overdose on some dope
No future
No fucking hope
Industry has gone away
What’s left is rust
And the remnants of what used to be
