Description
I wrote this song years ago with my guitarist but it was only a guitar riff. One night I was riding my bike after an argument and the words and melody came to me. I came home and recorded it in just an hour or so. The vocals were whispered into the mic as it was about 1am in my small apartment.
Lyrics
If you want something done you'd better do it yourself. and if you stand up for your rights prepare to give 'em hell. Don't fight for religion, don't fight for the truth but conquer the homeless and famine and euthanize all the parties and euthanize the core of rabid injustice and rob for the poor just rise up and reach for the quick bullet. If home is such a safe place then why all the locks to keep your fellow man out to shudder up your box? Well, savage and humble men tend to get lost somewhere between work and hanging from a knot. Well, loosen up that rope child; forgive what you've done and conquer the system that holds the smoking gun. And rewrite your history with countless reliefs. Tell lie after lie 'til you make them believe they'll rise up and long for the quick bullet Still searching for something hope I don't ever find it.
