about

"Strung on the Blue Line" from Nathan Goes to County EP

lyrics

As I walk around in my bare feet, dirty needles, glass and hot concrete
The infrastructure, spreading fast, the Earth is flustered
We’ve gone too far
Multi-celled but just one single drive, replicate and fight to stay alive
Stress response, clouded by our modern thoughts
Slowly growing insane
Step back, peak through the looking glass, third person watching mankind pass
Hypothesizing, we’re cancer, not a species thriving
You, me and my friends

Fry guy hunting birds that fly by
Swi guy strutting on the South Side
And my brother passed out, pockets slashed, strung out on the Blue Line

As we take a gaze, these Great Plains just aren’t what they used to be
Surrounded by maize, the soil degrades, subsidized by a government of thieves
When you're outside looking in, it’s plain to see
We don’t sustain, we sow it in vain, billions wasted on a few seeds

Grandma Mary conceived in Sicily, born off the boat, land of the free
Memories and cherished times are all a witness
The spreading of a planets contemplating sickness
This ain't no typical disease, this one can level age-old trees
Missile crisis, the nukes are out, there’s one behind us
It all evaporates

My my the junkie’s getting too high
Tie guy slaving in the high-rise
Just trash that fit, detox, come kick
Go tell your boss fuck you I quit
Not wise to listen to their white lies
Realize majority is not size
Rich fucking pricks are making me sick
Corrupt as all can be

Greedy pursuit, get all the loot, crush and burn another's dreams
Lay all to ruins, the flame consumes, now tell them who they should be
It’s hard to admit this condition’s in me
At least I know this is my foe, deep down inside I won’t let it be me

I won’t let it be me
To give away is the key
Free your mind and don’t miss a beat
Rolling meadows and seas
And mountain peaks
Even birds and the bees
Are all granted, all free
So quit limiting me
Just fucking let me be

Face oppression
Feed aggression
Decondition
Revolution
Fuck tradition
Break addiction
Deconstruction
Slay your nation

Lyrics by Slex
