Stay Home! 03:37
Hello from inside the void of my own mind I am speaking to you loudly Though you might not hear me, proudly...I proclaim I've been locked up inside my apartment Going crazy and I don’t mind You knowing, I’m not going anywhere Just stay Home Just stay home Nobody wants to be alone, but you don't have to do this on your own All this news that we’re consuming All this zoomin round and round and round The questions always looming about the cost...we know its human And I don't pretend to have the answers To the questions that we’re seeking But it bears repeating We can't afford to let this spread any further So, Just stay Home Just stay home Nobody wants to be alone, but you don't have to do this on your own Just stay Home Just stay home You don't have to be alone, you can call me on the telephone Lead break Even through this social distance There's a spirit of resistance That is waiting For you to start participating Just stay Home Just stay home Nobody wants to be alone, but you don't have to do this on your own Just stay Home Just stay home You don't have to be alone, you can call me on the telephone. Just stay Home, Just stay Home, Just stay Home, Just stay Home, Just stay Home, Just stay Home, Just stay Home.............

Go Go Go! 01:48
When I was young, they said don’t ask so many questions Just obey and earn your pay-that’s all you need to know Now that I’m older, understand what I was told Keep your head in one direction and just Go, Go, Go! Well, I reject the effects of oppression Embrace your fate and learn to hate the things that you don’t know Might makes right, no need for oversight Shoot first and don’t ask questions and just Go, Go, Go! When I was young there was no one to point direction Just stare at my reflection, inside the TV shows The futures clearer when we smash through every mirror Hold each other nearer, and just Go, Go, Go! Never learn no lesson, I just Go, Go, Go! Stare in one direction and just Go, Go, Go!

6 Feet Way 02:52
Wash your hands and kill the wealthy Keep the revolution healthy I do what Assata tells me When the shit is getting messy-c’mon 6 feet away We’re only 6 feet away Ooooooooooooh When things are hard When times are strange When it all falls apart We need to lose our chains 6 feet away We’re only 6 feet away Ooooooooooooh 6 feet away We’re only 6 feet away Ooooooooooooh Keep the revolution healthy When it all falls apart Wash your hands and kill the wealthy We all gotta do our part-c’mon, c’mon 6 feet away We’re only 6 feet away Ooooooooooooh Keep the revolution healthy Wash your hands and kill the wealthy Keep the revolution healthy Wash your hands and kill the wealthy c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

I got a clean shirt, but it always feels dirty from the blood and the sweat and the tears I got some black sunglasses to hide my eyes from the lies and the pain and the fear I got a good mind, but tonight I’ll just waste it on cigarettes and beer I got a wrist watch, and it's almost four thirty, so I think I’ll disappear And if you ask me my secret, I’m just keeping up… Appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances I got some good friends but they dont even know me and I haven’t seen em in years I got some deep cuts, but you don’t think they hurt me-cause you haven’t seen my tears And if you ask me my secret, I’m just keeping up… Appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances If life is a race, I dont even want to win-no Its okay cause I know I’ll lose even though I’m.. Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances I got a clean shirt, but it always feels dirty from the blood and the sweat and the tears I got some black sunglasses to hide my eyes from the lies and the pain and the fear I got a good mind, but tonight I’ll just waste it on cigarettes and beer I got a wrist watch, and it's almost four thirty, so I think I’ll disappear And if you ask me my secret, I’m just keeping up… Appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances Keeping up appearances….

You think you know me by now, but you don't I want to scream it out loud but I won’t This depression has come on too strong I’ve been down on the bottom so long What's the use of asking questions if we’re all just gonna die? Maybe there's a reason why I’m stuck in my feelings Though I did it to myself, gotta take it on my own Maybe that's the reason for this shift in seasons Oh we did it to ourselves, gotta face it all alone You think you know me by now, but you don't I want to scream it out loud but I won’t This depression has come on too strong I’ve been down on the bottle so long What's the use of asking questions if you know I'm gonna lie? Maybe there's a reason why I’m stuck in my feelings Though I did it to myself, gotta face it on my own Maybe that's the reason for this shift in meaning Oh we did it to ourselves, now we are all alone Maybe it's the rain I feel on my face I can't comprehend what I feel, and nothing’s real...nothing….nothing Maybe it's the pain I see on your face, can't comprehend what I feel, and nothing’s real...nothing….nothing Nothing’s real You think you know me by now, but you don't I want to scream it out loud but I won’t This depression has come on too strong I’ve been down on the bottom so long What's the use of asking questions if we’re all just lie? Maybe there's a reason why I’m stuck in my feelings Though I did it to myself, gotta face it on my own Maybe that's the reason for this change in seasons Oh we did it to ourselves, now we are all alone Maybe it's the rain I feel on my face I can't understand what I feel, and nothing’s real...nothing….nothing Yeah, Maybe it's the I feel on my face, can't comprehend what I feel, and nothing’s real...nothing….nothing….nothing….nothing...nothing, nothing at all….

Onward to the precipice with No concern for the earth’s existence Short-sighted, self-interested But if we’re honest we act just like them Who will rule the world When the world is over? When there's nothing left Who will rule the world When the world is over? No escape to another dimension Won't go to space unless we’re one in a million Dead at the hand of our own invention The proof is in the pudding, and not the intention Who will rule the world When the world is over? When there's nothing left Who will rule the world When the world is over? Ya didn't want to pay to fund education Ya didnt wanna fund public transportation We payed for your jets and we payed for your manions Now you'll pay, yeah now you'll really pay! Who will rule the world When the world is over? When there's nothing left Who will rule the world When the world is over? Who will rule the world when the world is over Will there be anything left to show for 400 thousand years of human evolution Whatever happened to the revolution? Who will rule the world When the world is over? When there's nothing left Who will rule the world When the world is over?
