about

This song was originally written and recorded under our ex-alias, Southpaw. All vocals were written and performed by our recently and dearly departed brother, Tyler James Hay. This is his final work, and our testament to Tyler's legacy; we love you forever.

lyrics

Are you proud of the chaos that you’ve wrought
There’s nothing more sinister than fools disguised as gods

Build your system to suppress our independent thought
Restrict our speech
Melt the people’s minds to rot
Execute the subversives that you’ve caught
Claiming to be a liberator we all know you’re not

When war is peace and freedom is slavery
We become mindless machines, puppets of higher beliefs

All the sirens will sing cause they can see what you bring
Torture oppression and racketeering
Brands for the dissenters, soma for the pain
Burn your rhetoric on people who should’ve been sane
Each inch of freedom’s blood stained

Are you proud of the chaos you’ve wrought
There’s nothing more sinister than fools disguised as gods

Tyrant to the east, madman the west
Pretending to be pure to aid their own interests
Under their heels we regress

Each inch of freedom's bloodstained
Burn any dissenters, distribute soma for the pain
