lyrics

this feeling it grows from within me
clutching at my throat tearing at my insides
burning my fingertips until i cannot take it
cannot stand to stand idle
cannot bear to not take up arms
theres blood that must be shed
from the depths of the bodies of those that seek to hunt us down
there must be rolling heads
as a warning to these masters that we will not be held down

so lets set fire underneath their cars
lets poison them with our medicinal arts
lets cut their throats lets break into their system
and burn the whole thing down

these cages that hold our friends and comrades
are smeared with the blood of the others that were held before
we see a pattern emerging
see a breadcrumb trail leading many through the prison doors
