Like shit, like shit, like shit
Trodden down like shit underfoot Like shit, be the downside to others upsides Like shit, last one to the table, just starve Like shit, you'll get what you're given You'll get what you're given This is set in stone from the ivory towers Perception above all When you're face down in the dirt Irreversibly persona non grata A figure off ill distinction Persona non grata The place for blame diversion No matter the plaudits I earn Like shit, the whoring and scoring for points Like shit, to strive to be superficial Like shit, I'll live by your status I'll live by your status This is knowing your place Beneath the ivory towers Not a growing concern But a lowly beast of burden Irreversibly persona non grata A figure off ill distinction Persona non grata The place for blame diversion Like shit 02. Smear Campaign
Cheated the way from fringe to elite
Clique of stylists Rounded illogic skipping a beat To a dead cert Dry-heaving charges and bursting the abscess With a forked tongue Bloated with courage And spewing with cloying self-importance Drop your targets Aim sights lower Leave unblemished those with real power Smear Campaign Stroke two faces Nests to feather Leave unblemished those with real power A thousand cuts Beat yourself proud Leave unblemished those with real power 03. Atheist Runt
I'm an empty, vain shell
Detached and stricken Bereft of richness from your faith Restrain this runt Neutralise this runt Behead this runt amid pillars of salt Knives out and poised The balanced fall - consumed And onto their own blades Restrain this runt Neutralise this runt Behead this runt amid pillars of salt Disabled in limbo Enabled if I stand down And fall onto my own blade 04. Morale
Odds are stacked with hooks to catch
The creeping doubt that strains the cracks Morale – blitzed – morale Culled – morale Morale Invite the plague to hasten the conversion Or piss upon the incorrputible Deny a way in Morale – sheared – morale Drained – morale Morale The pasage of the scapegoat In acceptance An endgame from a platform A mortal wounding Morale 05. Our Pain Is Their Power
