"HOSTAGE (they will not erase us)" lyrics

They can try to erase us
They feed lies to the nameless
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage

The streets are lit well with fire from the oppression
The sound of bombs are muffled when the devil speaks
They know we're fiening for another bad addiction
But they keep pushing drugs that they call belief

Bliss is ignorance
For those who can't afford
The truth, they're using you
To mop blood off the floor
Oh whoa oh
Demonized together
Oh whoa oh
Who wants to live forever?

They can try to erase us
They feed lies to the nameless
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage

They will try to deface us
They prey on the complacent
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage

Corruption's got a pretty face for seduction
Disguised in tailored suits the target's set on you
The factory of promises won't stop production
Until it's torn down for a better view

Bliss is ignorance
For those who can't afford
The truth, they're using you
To mop blood off the floor
Oh whoa oh
Demonized together
Oh whoa oh
Who wants to live forever?

They can try to erase us
They feed lies to the nameless
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage

They will try to deface us
They prey on the complacent
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage

I swear to god
I'm running low on air and I'm boutta choke
The scent of kerosene covers the city skies are stained with smoke

I swear to god
We've barely eaten but somehow we still have hope
Bodies stacking up like monuments I'm sick of seeing bones

I swore to god
I'd bring you home so don't you quit on me don't fade
The weight of the world will need every hand to spin the other way

I swore to god
I'd pull the pin before I accepted fate
I refuse to bow down I'll stand until my legs break

I swear to god
I swear to god
