about

Being surrounded by concrete, crooks and capitalism all day, everyday is exhausting and defeating. It's no wonder that so many people walk through submissive and subdued by the system, doing their best to get by; "enjoying" entertainment and distractions that our force fed to us by these bastards. Before I was introduced to radicals and a new way of life, this lethargic hopelessness was what I thought life was cracked up to be. Feminism, anarchism, veganism, environmentalism and all the rest put me in a nose dive toward a new outlook on life that I have never even imagined. My "emergency heart"(as Scott Crow would say) finally started betting and it had a purpose.

What is your emergency heart you ask? It's that overwhelmingly desperate feeling you get when you know something is fuck up. That overwhelming desire to fight for what you believe it. The feeling that what your doing is never enough and you will never back down, you will never give up, until the oppression, the domination, the heartbreak is over. The drive, that fire, that passion is my life. It keeps me going, it's the force that motivates to consistently, growing and change. Without it, I am nothing.

lyrics

So I woke up the other day to some trash on the news. It said some rich fuck named Donald Sterling was screaming racist shit at a young black woman. And the world that we live in yeah, the world that we live in’s burning down. Yeah, only if we’re lucky, only, only if we’re lucky it’ll burn to the ground.
Cause desperation is the only thing that ever changed anything, yeah desperation is the only thing.
Oh I woke up checked the news today hobby lobby’s telling women that they wont pay, cause Christians are good yeah, Christians are grand, and jesus decides your medical plan. And the world that we live in yeah, the world that we live in’s burning down. Yeah, only if we’re lucky, only, only if we’re lucky it’ll burn to the ground.
Cause desperation is the only thing that ever changed anything, yeah desperation is the only thing.
So I woke up, checked the news today. Trans Pacific Partnership oh its on the way. Tariffs gone and forests destroyed, but if you’re a rich man yeah you’ll get new toys. And the world that we live in yeah, the world that we live in’s burning down. Yeah, only if we’re lucky, only, only if we’re lucky it’ll burn to the ground.
Cause desperation is the only thing that ever changed anything, yeah desperation is the only thing.
