1.Knowledge
I know that things are getting tougher
when you cant get top off from the bottom of the barrel
wide open road of my future now...
its looking fucking narrow
All I know is that I dont know nothing
we get told to decide
just like as if im not gonna change my mind
all I know is that I dont know nothing
whatcha gonna do with yourself
boy better make up your mind
whatcha gonna do with yourself boy
you're running out of time
this time I got it all figured out
all I know is that I dont know nothing...
and thats fine
2.Sound System
(chorus)
sound system gonna bring me back up
one thing that I can depend on
try to describe to the limit of my ability：
its there for a second
then it's given up what it used to be
contained in my music somehow more than just sound,
this inspiration coming and twisting things around
Because you always know that its gonna have to go.
you always know that you'll be back in the cold.
point of depatrure sublimated in a song
its always coming to give me that hope for just a second
then its gone but
(chorus)
static pulse inside of music bringing us escape
its always temporary changing nothing in its wake
just a second where were leaving all this shit behind
just a second but its leaving just this much in mind：
to resist despair that second makes you see
to resist despair because you cant change everything
to resist despair in this world is what it is to be free
(chorus)
wake up turn my box on
bust the shade let the sun in
times getting tougher bout time to start runnin
box in my hand music by my side
skanking to the rhythm of the music by my side
3.Jaded
something breaks inside of you
with the spectacle of all the shows
with fifteen fights and your six bucks
has gone up some promoters nose
jaded eyes see clearly but only half of whats there
good old days are left behind whats left is boredom and despair
but sometimes every once in a while
its beautiful I would say, I wouldn't have it any other way
if I said different it would be a lie
what was once rebellion is now clearly just a social sect
but are you just upset because your own social clique has left
leave when you want because I know that someday I will too
but I wont burn my bridges and be just another jaded fool
4.Take Warning
stand by your freinds, wrong or right
can't call that justice when its just a stupid excuse to fight
single out and attack the ones who got no defense
you call that a new way of thinking i call it regression to
ignorance
take warning
theres a new generation coming
and we really gotta stand up to them
nobodys got a thing against you
unless youve got something to prove
we dont need no set of standards,
we dont need a new set of rules
heard all that shit before
about stomping out any difference
we say stand together
(not to fight just to exist)
take warning
intimidation coming
and we really gotta say no to them
enough is enough is enough
why dont you just ease up
I saw another beat down last nite take warning
who's the next to hit the ground tonite take warning
5.The Crowd
wrenched into the world, deanaesthetized
blurry images fiht their way through halfway opened eyes
awakened by alarm fifteen minutes of hygeine
twenty minutes of eating thirty seconds to the door
I looked outside I looked into the eyes
of the impersonal mob I've seen a thousand times before
feeling under covers like books on a shelf
if we're scared of one another
must be scared of ourself
more than just another crowd
we need a gathering instead
drink drink in the badland liquid bread for the poor
another member of the crowd goes down to drown at the liquor
store
choose your escape in the heartland
of product and demand when you feel like a wasp in the swarm
you gotta get away anyway that you can
6.Bombshell
down in south oakland
off east 14th its raining
six a.m. on sunday and the bums are praying
met her at a party we were drunk now were sober
she said its cold got a long walk home come over
shes a bombshell
I've retraced my steps a thousand times
seems I've spent hours asking all my freinds about her
been six months but ill never be the same
nobody remembers her name
shes a bombshell
7.Unity
theres a war going down between my brothers tonight
I dont want no war going down tonight
civilization ha I call it as I see it
I call it bullshit you know I still cannot believe it
our evolution now has gone the way of hate
a world evolved resolved in this stupid fate
stop this war
all so different yeah I say were all the same
all caught you know in the division game
self destruction fast impending like a bullet
no one can stop it once its fired no one can control it
stop this war
a final word, wait it's not a call to action
we aint no sect we aint no fucking faction
unity unity youve heard it all before
this time its not exclusive we want to stop a war
unity as one stand together
unity evolutions gonna come
8.Vulnerability
I saw this guy go down
wasn't time for fear
before his body hit the ground
(chorus)
our vulnerability is all our insensitivity
car that hit him pulled to a stop
driver hid the bottles
he anticipated cops
(chorus)
crowd assembled to take a look at death
shattered skull fragile body
blacktop running red
(chorus)
people looked bored
like expecting more
people looked bored like expecting more
(chorus)
and sympathy is only freindships whore you know
and maybe we dont know who we are anymore
another spectacle and its respectable
to take it lightly like another tv show
so desensitized so dehumanized
why stop and think when you can find someplace to go
were drowning
(chorus)
and its gonna be the death of us just you wait and see
