- A Sharp Line
Once you sang our songs, and you screamed out loud, you shared ideals, maybe cared about? To grow up and to change is fine, but you crossed that final line. Change the lane but don't turn around, wrong-way drivers will crash and burn! You can't hide your new friends, don't expect any tolerance for fascist views or racist minds, now you follow what you once despised. And if your maroon turns into brown – there is nothing to accept! There's a sharp line between right and wrong, there's a sharp line between you and us. A sharp line! Don't fall silent, there will be no turning quiet. No single step back, we will stand with focused minds. There's a sharp line between you and us.
Life is determined by progression. We shouldn't stand still, but improve ourselves every day and thereby society itself in the long run. But even if the world would stop turning, there are issues that are not negotiable. You may change your lifestyle or your social environment, but certain “opinions” and behaviors won't be accepted nor tolerated. Racism, fascism, homophobia, xenophobia, sexism, anti-Semitism and the likes are opposed to everything we consider basic values and principles in the punk/hardcore scene as well as in democratic societies in general. And if you don't even agree on that, there's no place for you here and you're considered an enemy.
- Bad Bargain
You grow the crops to feed our food, we want it all, it's all our loot. But we won't let you starve and die. You can buy our waste, earning double, killing twice, that's our way. Realize that the food on our table is not just killing living beings, but also hope and future in far distant places! We're going to kill you – with our diet, with our help, with all that we give! Cause we will establish your addiction. Fed to the death. We need to see, this connection between all the sorrow and our consumption! We have to stop this madness – now!
Eating meat is just plain wrong. But what's terrifying to see is, that it's wrong on so many levels. The so-called First World is using developing countries' capacities to help it produce cheap food. Still our spoiled society is using only little of the produced animal itself for its consumption. Sadly, the story doesn’t end here. To maximize the assets, meat producers export the unsalable remains of those animals (e.g. chickens heads) to Third World countries. With the help of EU export subsidies they offer those animal remains at an incredible low price. In 2010 alone the EU exported 480,000 tons of slaughterhouse waste. While these exports are not helping developing countries – but instead are wrecking the regional agricultural sector – they become dependent on our leftovers.
- Equal
I won’t stay quiet, won’t stop the fight against your world of defined roles. We all walk this path getting used to broken hearts, no differences should be made between any human kind based on their preference to whom to shed their heart. No questions should be asked to any one, based on their choice to whom to shed their heart. It is not whom - but do we love?!
- Follow Through
How to stand your ground when the daily grind takes hold? How to step out of that faceless crowd? Ask yourself if you’re able to scream when nobody hears your words? Am I able to stand my ground while I’m trapped in those hands? Can I shout out real loud when nobody sings along? Sometimes you don’t know how to speak out. Try your best to fight for your desires every moment of your life. Progress comes in small pieces and with courage all the time! Violence is the game of those who are scared of a strong mind, we won’t be the ones that run blind. We need to be awake to live that dream. We won’t remain silent!
- No Victim
Let’s face the single fact, stop complaining. You lived there for two years, your folks moved in before, they were working for the Reich - that’s what you call your beloved home. No victim – Offender! You’re no victim - You’re the offender! A yesterday’s wolf in a democratic sheep skin. No victim – Offender! Under the guise of the so - called expulsion you hide your racism and your greed. Seriously – there is nothing to reclaim, the only thing that you have to be is thankful, thankful to be alive.
- Not Fading Away
Issues fading, times are changing - being tired of the youth gone wild? Another focus and a selfish backtrack, things looked different as a „child”. You never kept your anger and you ever spoke your mind, but now you're smiling about the harshness of your former life. Now you became what you never wanted to be, with an empire of fake problems in front of your TV. While millions and millions continue to suffer and die, you found out that organic beef silenced the outcry? Maybe you’re right and your after-work-yoga is more important! Hour by hour, day by day, week by week, year after year. Every hour, every day, every week and every single year - try to stay focused, evolve your mindset and use your anger! And every day you stay focused, every day is a new chance, a chance to better something, and all those little somethings will mean everything! So many problems, so few solutions, need our awareness and our actions!
Problems won't disappear just because you grow older. There's no reason to fall silent at a certain age, quite the opposite. The world is still full of shit to keep us from lower our voices. A great idea is still a great idea, even if you yourself have given up on it. So who's the one to be laughed at?
