Stokin' The Neighbors - Americunt 02:58
lyrics
A nation full of corporate greed A media full of lies it seems Feeding us full of bullshit and tainted meat. Filling us full of nasty shit lSD and cow vomit How do you even sleep at night? You believe the world's better with GMOs From companies like monsanto If you ask me it makes me fucking sick Who even runs this country? Figured head for president while CEOs get rich (x2) Republicans afraid of men taking it in the ass But suck a lobbyist dick without a question asked Democrats aren’t any better Giving cash to my cracked out fucking neighbor Francis Scott Key got it wrong: Land of the business man Home of the rich I cant afford to eat this McDonalds shit But one question still remains Who even runs this country? Who even runs this Americunt?

Stokin' The Neighbors - The Thread 02:23
lyrics
They say it's called the thread and you, through life, it will lead. So we can rest our weary heads and follow blissfully. Pulling me down- A body, no more mine, gets dragged around by this leash. I haven't found myself. This thread; my bondage. The way it is - isn't for me. I think I'd rather just be lost, wandering and still wondering, than drawn along by this thread. I'll choose: my own pace, where I tread. Pluck, haul this thread with me. Pulling me down- no more. I won't let my body be restrained by this leash. I have found out. I'll drag whatever hand holds this thread. Walk reality.

Stokin' The Neighbors - Terms & Conditions 03:50
lyrics
Terms and conditions may apply. After all, It's the 21st century and we subsist in a world of extremists; fanatic, apathetic (you should never just be either, but a bit of both or neither one would be permissible). When one's more apt to like and follow life than seek accomplishment out for oneself- how do you find identity- how do you know who you are? That must be what makes it so easy to not care when our privacy is compromised. We already hand it away willingly- I should say enthusiastically- in ribboned parcels of ego-centric status updates, ostentatious selfies, and haphazard gasconade. We don't even know what it is we're giving away. We disregard the threat swarming above us. Too busy primping for a night of tindering/fapping to be bothered by wasps stinging with intrusion, eyes in paintings moving, or tapped phone calls home to grandma. An arduous task; having a conscience in a world of me-first approval seekers, stop at nothing opportunity takers, and the end justifies the means personalities. Nobody wants to care that big brother and any others with power (money) can view/sell/trade/kill us- without looking in our eyes. But I offer resolution: seek approval from within, nurture an identity, expand your mind by asking questions. Make yourself susceptible to feelings of empathy, and seek alternatives that don't hide intentions, terms & conditions. Let's take back the wires/ Take back the sky/ Take back our lives.
