"Splendid Vengeance"

Hook:

Pull the Plug
& Cut the Cord
Make These Sick Fascists
Fall on Their Own Swords

Pull the Plug
& Cut the Cord
Make These Rich Bastards
Fall on Their Own Swords (x 2)

Verse 1:

They wonder why
We’re so lawless
It all makes sense,
When you can’t make enough dollars,
Whose left behind, whose stuck in squalor,
Rise up, time to rip off your collars,
Rip off your muzzle,
Hit me up, peace holler,
I’m a street scholar,
Bringin' the heat,
Droppin' knowledge,
Throw down in a tussle,
Hold it down,
Like jobs we juggle
Reppin' the hustle,
Busting gats with gust-o
Raise ya fist
Got brains &
Muscles to resist
Drinking a fifth
Strife strugglin',
Bare knucklin' it
The beast nipples
You been suckling, kid
Got you stuck in place
But somethings got to give,
Wall street smothers your dreams, so fuck that shit
Big brother's frontin' for these fat cats & foolish pigs
Cut the upper crust,
So we all can l truly live,
Blaze this shit
for all ya'll unruly kids
Bring the ruckus,
Somethings soon to give,
Cut the upper crust,
So we all can truly live,
Bring the ruckus,
Somethings soon to give,
Cut the upper crust,
So we all can truly live


Hook:

Pull the Plug
& Cut the Cord
Make These Sick Fascists
Fall on Their Own Swords

Pull the Plug
& Cut the Cord
Make These Rich Bastards
Fall on Their Own Swords (x 2)

Verse 2:

Pull my sword out,
On the route to war now
with more style,
I’ll take your whole force out
Wall Street will be torn down
By the poor child,
On the route to war now blasting
When exploited from
The cradle to the casket
Can’t afford to forget
The struggle's everlasting
I fight with the cunning masses
Against the moneyed masters
Their coveting our assets &
Covering their asses
Fuck these fascists &
Their minions
The rich claim the earth
As their own dominion
They have an unconscious wish for extinction
Obsessed by power and wealth’s sick prescriptions
They left the whole globe in miserable conditions
As they crush resistance
And imprison the living
Tell us to follow,
Listen & bow in submission
But what happens
When most
Got no pot to piss in?

The Poor Are On A Vengeance Mission
To Overthrow this Horrendous System (x 2)
