lyrics

"A spontaneous species set on destruction and distracted by illusions of deception we are leaving behind an undying legacy, a bleak existence with fabricated American dreams. Abandoning the generations of knowledge and forgetting the centuries of history, we look to our screens to tell us what to be, following the furor and diminishing our surroundings.
Yet very few can observe to see what has now become of our society. Striving for only one’s own trifled way of life. Our mankind’s perceptive mind is withering away. As our future grows bleaker each day our prolonged expectancies circle down the drain; you should be perceptive enough to see that our society is not as good as it seems, and that we long ago lost the vision we have yet to achieve.
When will all of these mindsets finally be cast out? Until when we have learned to cut the tongues from their provocative mouths, and make them see far beyond this mendacious illusion.
Devoted from the beginning to ushering man to his inevitable end, corporations have corrupted and encrypted everything you own. No longer moving forward we have stalled at desolation. Ignorance is no excuse for this misfortune we have brought upon ourselves. Materialization has long consumed us, forcing our halt towards a better tomorrow. Effectively commercializing consume distracted from the destruction that looms, compelling you to keep buying, creating debt to keep thriving. Struggling for identity, the consciousness that makes your mind weak, ignorantly pretentious, this way of life threatens our existence."

Wack to think they somehow went up from here. Just... damn... its not gonna rip your face off, but its every bit as punchey and hard-hitting as the stuff coming straight out the minds of archspire. And man them solos. im a real goon when it comes to that stuff, can't dig them, but, its fucking gooey right here, tickling all my brain parts in the perfect way. MyNameIsRedundant
