Parasite, genocide, mastermind, ruler of the hivemind.
Separate, interrogate, manipulate, wield the fingers of hate.
Idolize then crucify, when out of our sight and out of our minds.
Amputate the slow decay with viper fangs then
cover up the tumor, when it needs another suture,
dependent known abusers, vomit like a worker bee.
Another day - another dollar,
another month spent just to cover the rent.
I’ve got the introspection of a two-bit scholar,
I’ll never make a dent rubbing my two cents.
Running my mouth on wet cement.
I’ve got a long ways to go but I don’t walk alone.
All for one and one for all.
Broken bones, bruised and battered,
sticks and stones bend silicone locus point shattered.
Choke the parrot’s beak on the rebound critique,
then turn and preach it to the choir, as they sing with tongue and cheek.
“All hail the king of hide and seek.”
You’ve got a long ways to go but you don’t walk alone.
All for one and one for all.
We lost our head in the trenches of a loaded gun.
Gained a couple more inches but we’re never done.
Scoffers call from the benches with a razor tongue.
Jackals hunt with a vengeance and we’re on the run.
One for all and all for one.
We’ve got a long ways to go but we don’t march alone.
All for one and one for all.
We brandish our torches to light up the path ahead.
Our bodies scar and blister, but the real war is in our heads.
Forever a work in progress, grow, rebuild and integrate.
We are more than our failures and we are not defined by all of our mistakes.
All for one and one for all. All for one and one for all.
A house divided will always fall, so all for one and one for all.
Draw your lines, one more time, sway the tide, fight the good fight.
Cast aside, the caustic mind of humankind, we are flawed by design.
Shed the dead weight, brace the floodgates,
mend the heartache, break the mold and escape.
Find a way to force and break through the hatred in you.
Blood thirsty volcano, detonate your ego, listen quick and speak slow,
Believe you me, the truth will set you -
