MARKETED OPPRESSION VS. RELEVANCE SOUGHT

YOU'VE BEEN SOLD

WHAT YOU'VE BEEN TOLD

YOU BOUGHT THAT SHIT

YOU'VE BEEN MEASURED TO FIT

YOU BELIEVE IT'S YOUR PERCEPTION

ALL THAT'S LEFT IS COOPERATION

YOU MUST CHANGE WHAT YOU SEE

YOUR VALUES ARE NOT WHAT THEY SHOULD BE

IN ORDER TO REALIZE WHAT IT IS TO LIVE

YOU MUST FIRST CHANGE YOUR PERSPECTIVE

SEEK RELEVANCE

GO OVERBOARD IN HASTE

FOR ALL YOUR UNDERSTANDING

CHANGE TAKES THE TIME YOU WASTE

START A REVOLUTION

RISING UP INSIDE THE GATE

SUPRISE THE INSTITUTION

EXPECTING YOU TO WAIT

By: Pancho Madness

The Lost One

Your face is sticky and wet with tears
Use your last 10 dollars to buy a few more beers
They never ask about your state of being
Now you’re realizing life has no meaning
The questions are jumbled in your head
Instead of finding some lucid thought you may as well stay in bed
Sleep through the day the sun shines bright
Slip out the door in the middle of night
The world is asleep you don’t need them anymore
Maybe they’ll be sorry the day your dead body hits the floor

The Gift

I came by and saw her sitting

She has seen many more decades than I

She told me of her first love

She wanted to be a mother since she was three

Her son died a hero

Her husband died a drunk

She used to go to the theatre

Her sister was her best friend

He loved her too

Why can't their science cure the world's hunger?

She finds strangeness now everywhere

She says she remembers me from her youth

Her rheumy eyes see only what was

There is no future for her but to sit

and to remember

I sing her a song

Then I fly away
