[Lyric] Kill Whiteness (Fortunate Fall)
This is really happening It all fell apart We took several steps back instead of a fresh start We act out of fear Afraid to fail This fragile support system finally lifts its veil Was born into this alternate reality I woke up once the temperature began to change No longer able to ignore the imbalance For every success always comes at the...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Wealth in Chains (Fortunate Fall)
Tear down these fucking walls Rip out the fucking veins Cut the head from the body We never left the chains Another profit system Oppression in design Victimize populations School to prison pipeline Sentries in the street Enforce prejudice beliefs Place private property above me Soldiers march to the beat Of racist beliefs And target...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Numbers (Fortunate Fall)
Vultures circle overhead Drawn by the smell of the dead Feeding on the rotting flesh Another communal death Falling behind as payments continue to rise Write new laws to eviscerate not civilize Paint over local culture as they sanitize Carnivores walk the streets and cannibalize Hiding behind an official disguise Appropriate and repackage your...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Distributive Justice (Fortunate Fall)
Another carrot tied to a stick Leftover crumbs appease convicts It won't matter how much you cheat We encourage the biggest thief Public disgust lasting so brief Turn around hide in disbelief Lies tide the weak, blanket the street, while you're asleep Turn a blind eye, more people die, but you're alive You hide behind denied designs but they're...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Necrophobia (Fortunate Fall)
I want to live today like it could be my last Set everything on fire to escape the past Another moment is passing me by I'm running out of time A fleeting impulse dies along with the day Apathy stands in the way Inflicting pain Cut deep to drain Sometimes it weighs so much I can't stand up The pressure builds, hurt unfulfilled When there is...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Not a Right (Fortunate Fall)
Will you put it on the line What are you willing to lose You can't just try it out You can't just pick and choose Privilege that gives you the right Take time away from the fight Something that is not shared Something that's not a right Every day your life's on the line State violence sustained by swine Without some skin in the game Perpetuating...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Thoughts and Prayers (Fortunate Fall)
Repeating empty words Relying on deflection Duplicitous response Toe the line until the next election Buying time until attention runs out Endless stream of vapid distractions Paid to keep the peace and get out of the way Perpetuation that requires inaction It dies down then it happens again Another shooter out for revenge On a system that will...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Privilege (Fortunate Fall)
An assumed level playing field All that you know Mutual give and take perceived Privilege is shown Take what you want not what you need A culture of greed Echoes in your defense of systems that bleed Ignore a past of genocide A world colonized Continue to ignore voices you marginalize A world that seems to center you Rewarded respect Entitlement...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Skinner Box (Fortunate Fall)
Demonized and isolated Locked in a box and sedated When the only out is self harm When you draw blood to disarm Left with no choice but comply Lost sanity by design There is so much we can take Repeated attempts to break Trapped in a cage with no lights Stripped of hope and what's left of any fight Behind bars that you put in place Behind bars...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Industrial Society and its Future (Fortunate Fall)
Control through drugs and entertainment A population that's sick can't consent A slow drip every day slowly chips away Inequality intended to suffocate Social stress is weakening eradicating reasoning Leaning on collective norms to find yourself a uniform Cultural decadence subjugates day by day A life of wage labor up to the grave Society's...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] Hell Enough (Fortunate Fall)
Grab your torches The mob assembles tonight Your time is fucking up You won't live to see first light Last breath of innocence Ripped from the innocent Ridiculed for torture you did not prevent Vultures circle overhead Making you wish you were dead The victim demonized Burned at the stake and ripped to shreds There is no hell hot enough No room...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall[Lyric] White Washed Pacifism (Fortunate Fall)
Know this will never be enough To stall this steady decline Fascism trickles from the top Obey without knowing you're in line Ingrained will to fight- Subjugate through a divide but not unite Widespread mass control- Goes better when you think you're above every fight Revision history with peace not progress A blood soaked past will always be...Learn MorerockFortunate Fall
