Born and bred for mass consumption Flesh and blood extensions of mechanical mass production Devices of burden, so too their sons and their daughters Fattened cattle led to the slaughter Day in and day out it's all the same Sense of humanity begins to wane Process of alienation is now complete Mechanized from your head down to your feet Prepare to live life on your knees This beast will show neither compassion nor mercy Bear witness to complete dehumanization Living in hell: there is no salvation You adjust your noose in the indoor plantation It tightens 'round your neck a reminder of your incarceration Meager pay in exchange for your life and your soul This is the epitaph of your aspirations and goals Tortured by repetition and monotony Your dreams dangle just out of reach From this nightmare you will never awaken All your hopes are now forsaken
2.
Bombs rain down: a storm of death The gift of democracy from the west Cast out your people to steal your land Label you as thieves and cut off your hands In the name of national defense Come chemicals to cleanse your flesh Imprisoned by walls so tall they block out the sun Criminals on your own soil no matter where you run We lay siege to the lands of your birth Impatiently we wait for you to deny your self-worth For the offer of an olive branch: a bulldozer in return In the rubble of your demolished home you shall be interned The color of your skin is a mark of shame Your culture is a stigma worthy of blame Self-hatred and suicide are your only recourse We laugh at your self destruction devoid of remorse These are not acts of genocide History is just not on your side
3.
Incorrigibles that cannot be saved Throw away offspring born into the grave Building the coffins for stillborn minds Building the prisons to punish future crimes Entire generations cast aside For selective infanticide Subversive attempts to remedy The defects of humanity State policy dictated from up above They know only discipline... they’ll never know love They understand they are meant to be crushed under our boots Eradicate inferiority right at the root Colorblind society Self Fulfilling prophecy Lebensborn is now complete Embrace the future of white supremacy Forced to Fail They are forced to fail
4.
Rape and pillage people and land to subjugate Entire nations into imperialist slavery Total domination of minds, bodies, and souls The extraction of superprofit the ultimate goal You lost the war now we shall the collect our spoils The labor of your people and the resources under your soil Pop music culture in exchange for you oil Generations after you forced to eternally toil Imperialist Puppets speak empty promises of change Through handshakes in shadows deals are arranged Amongst a select few power is exchanged From freedom and peace humanity is estranged Bullets and batons greet cries for relief The sights of mutilated corpses compound the grief In order to defend the ruling elite Starving workers and peasants left to bleed to death in the streets We come in peace for your blood and your oil In God’s name

Walang bala na titigil sa ating pagsugod. Kahit anong harang ay ating wawasakin. Walang kwentang sistema sinira, benenta! Sawa ang mga masa sa pagkain na basura! Nasaan na ang bagong sistema? Sa atin ay magsismula! Para sa mga martir, kasama at kasapi. Hindi masasayang ang dugo ng mga bayani. Ang ating kalayaan ay nasa paglaban. Magwawakas din ang panahon ng mga mayayaman!
