lyrics

ever since I first heard this ignorance// I’ve been determined to put an end to it
some people say I should live and let live but I think that’s such a foolish sentiment

I don’t want to be complicient//in the spread of an army of nit wits and dim drips
on the internet spreading this nonsense wrapped up in pseudo scientific shit

so it’s come to my attention///that this whole damn world needs an intervention
cause their absorbing the lies and it’s affecting their lives like a twisted type of addiction

con men have something in common they take advantage when your mind’s disarmed and
gullible raised up trained up brain sucked up into ideas that really feel comfortable

somebody’s gotta challenge that shit ...rise up and go dismantle that quick
but all I really see is cowardice coming from people who gotta know better than this

being silent is quiet compliance….giving free rein to the stupid alliance
and when you do that you aren’t any better than the rest of them
I’m not impressed with them

so I’m raising up a nation of reapers….killing that dumb shit that comes with deceivers
and we must kick dust...rip up...slice through..anything they throw at us trying to defeat us

it’s death and rigor mortis all day…..piling up bodies till they rot and decay
and we stay reaping till their bones just dry to dust and the wind just blows them away

Chorus:

How long do we wait till we rise
Under the weight of those statements of lies
cause everyday they be crossing the line
and you don’t do shit so they thinking it’s fine

well I’m thinking that now is the time
wear the hood...grab a scythe...form a line

pale horse is the way that we ride// just wait till they see us
Rise of the Reapers



so what...I’m supposed to be hyped and amused
at all of the fuckery that i watch on the news

and the stories they will twist so we’re slightly confused
and never really know what’s the lie we consumed

minds that were fertile get placed into tombs
murdered by the culprit that’s in living rooms

victims are the ones not critically attuned
they assume that it’s true cause it’s there on the tube

it’s high time somebody go step to that
expose all of them lies and drown the rats

beat em over the head with nothing but facts
stacks of tracks with stats makes their brains splat

I don't really want to hear your bias
interview designed to make leaders look pious

knowing all the while your goal’s to deny us
knowledge of the plan cause you’re just paid liars

think about it cause it really makes sense
easier to rule with a dumb populace

watch them get pissed till they shout and they scream
at some nonsense created by the outrage machine

it’d be funny if it weren’t so obscene
get them riled up till their heads full of steam

clouding everything with their posts and their memes
so you really can’t understand a god damn thing

face the truth cause for real at best you're screwed
stop watching out your window and vesta views

while the world gets duped and more confused
that attitude gonna be the death of you

choose now if you’re going to be effective
or let the con men come shape your perspective

wait on your knees till messiahs are elected
or be a real force that’s feared and respected
