about

Prophecy, coming true.

lyrics

(Verse 1)
And in the ast days when the last road is built
And you don't have another gallon of gas for cars still
You'll probly go to war thinkin' that'll solve shit
Come November you'll be sittin' at home on the 5th
And in the last days you'll think you finally found the candidate
You'll vote him in shortly after he'll change his stances quick
You'll latch on to the next hope, realize you don't know
And that it's easier to cover your ears and keep your eyes closed
And in the last days when the last tree is chopped
And all the oxygen you breathe is artificially bought
Animal life is down to its last species
And they're all modified for the pleasure of eatin'
The last days, everything is man-made
And you made it that way through a broken pathway
If you wanna change that should of been prevention
If you wonder how then you should of paid attention

(Verse 2)
The last days, in the last days few rule the many
With a life-long goal to own every penny
With their petty methods, they invest into weapons
Over anything else, and you're too damn tepid
In the last days to ever put an end to their rule
And it's probly all the pacification from drugging you
When you thought luxuries were better than self-health
You denied all the power you had and self-wealth
In the last days you're only interested in the fast way
Suicide is common so really what that say
Is no one wanna live that way, they're lookin' for a way out
They wanna end it quick since the world will end any day now
And so the last days are maybe my last chance
To avenge Mother Earth for the pain at your hands
I'ma bring it sooner than maybe they hoped to
Cuz if she gotta go, then each of you go too

(Sample)
"It does not matter if the war is not real, or when it is, that victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous. The essential act of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labour. A hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. In principle, the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects, and its object is not victory over Eurasia or Eastasia...but to keep the very structure of society intact."
