Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Facing brutality I struggle with morality I don't think that I can take it anymore Indoctrinated into cultural norms functionless forms: "Dominate and bleed infect with greed" and we succumb... I aggressive inherently am the illegitimate child Of the gun intertwined with the dollar sign And now as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I have become your evil and your hate is within me For the rod and the staff have taught me all to well These hands would drip with blood If I traded truth for certainty Power beckons to the unsure and afraid The atavists of ignorance who initiate Our bodies cast the shadow of everyone who has ever lived And all the gods all the demons all the heavens And all the hells are within us... But that I privileged revolutionary could prescribe rites Of passage for all? in preparing bloody defenses Let our lineage remain clear:Armenia, Nanking, East Timor, Cambodia, Rwanda, Iraq, Kosovo the shattered lives And battered wives, underscored by forceful lies Are inside of us, inside of me I aggressive inherently could destroy humanity I'm only one step away One single blow unjustified I'm only one step away Caught between rule or be ruled Want or want not With no easy way out
