about

This one was written about, well, the current state of affairs in this country. We are fundamentally flawed. Complete restructuring is the way forward.

Donating 100% of proceeds from this track split equally between the National Bail Fund Network and The Bail Project.

No one should be jailed for protesting injustice. Fight for your right to stand up to racism, bigotry, and tyranny, wherever it may lie.

lyrics

You always preach of damnation
But we all live in this damned nation
Forgo reframe but never repent
I think some reparations are in store

Four score and seven years ago
This shit was already happening
Since the start we've lacked all morality
Media cover-ups, wage theft, brutality
Finally, people are starting to
Wake up to their reality

This place is Hell
For so many
This place is Hell
It's time to look in the mirror
This place is Hell
Take a good hard look at yourself
This place is Hell
Check your privilege at the door

Rising seas
Black bodies
Real nazis
Viruses
Drug crises
And failed states

Rising hate
It's too late
To stop now
Free falling
Free falling
Free falling
