Lyrics
There is
no compromise
to truth
What is truth?
ask the
poets of
desperation
The poets
of the street
they want to know,
what is truth
without responsibility?
The incessant ringing of the doorbell
turns comfort into agitation
& I would throttle the motherfucker
if I wasn’t throttling myself in a mirror reflection /
raindrops penetrate burning concrete
and I run through the streets, naked,
searching for the answer to the next chapter, but I’m lost
& the ghosts of the future are laughing
& preachers plead for salvation
& dogs bark in the wilderness
but we’re not listening,
we’re not listening…
We ignore the whispered warnings of poisoned winds
blowing through walls of de-regulation and nothing’s changed,
nothing will change state the philosophers who seek
knowledge through domination:
Who needs wisdom? and who the fuck r u
to speak of truth?
