Recidivism (feat. Dan Tucker)

I take pride

In my sacrifice

Let it swell

A creation of this cell

While the torment never seems to end

I'm bottle-fed, I will somehow transcend

Kick and scream while covered in the dirt

No boundaries, all I've ever known is hurt

Create a world that never knew a dream

And you make yourself your own worst enemy

Lock yourself into another ball and chain

No boundaries, all I've ever known is pain

I second guess my intuition

Mold my brain by the confounds of this prison

Recidivism, lack of empathy

Counter to culture of virtuous signaling

You can miss me with your empty sorries

Don't plan off a heartbeat of holding your breath

They prey on the feeble and naive mindsets

Wait one more second, you're closer to death

You're closer

Than ever before

When your last dying words

Were "what is this all for?"

I take pride

In my sacrifice

Let it swell

A creation of this cell

Back into the hell-shaped cell I've felled into

Anyone who cares plagued by a bird's eye view

Track dirt into my coffin

And the violence will brew

They'll never know my name

So no one ever gets a clue

Anyone who's ever cared

About the state of affairs

Elated in air, related to their fair share

Dragged into their discipline

To further this renaissance

A rebirthing into nothing

Where they think we belong

Step into the dungeon of an ordained sociopath

A minister born by misfortune and wrath

Tables filled by pelts

Of leather to the missing coil

The key to insanity buried under shit and soil

Cage the individual, they know not what they do

And place the plague onto us all

For never bearing his fruits

The narrative spins everything to shit

Recidivism perseveres regardless of it

Let me out
