infected blanket
the european disease
extermination
through the trail of tears
silver and fur
gold and rubber
theft, plunder, exploitation
genocidal colonization
driven by greed
massacre at the wounded knee
selectively portrayed
as passive and accepting
leaving out the protests
and insurrections
1492
fuck your celebrations
no discovery
but a racist invasion

Op de vlucht met valse hoop
Eindigt in verdrinkingsdood
Enkele reis naar de bodem van de zee
Geen garantie dat je ’t overleeft
Kilometers afgelegd, voor een bestaan
Makkelijk verdiend door een mensensmokkelaar
Weg van huis en haard,
Voor het paradijs
In plaats daarvan
Een dodenreis
Mare Nostrum!
Van vluchteling naar drenkeling
Mare Nostrum!
Fort Europa’s territorium
"We zitten niet te wachten op die vluchtelingenstroom"
Maar oorlog en geweld, daar vraagt ook niemand om
Hoeveel migranten op de bodem van de zee
Hoeveel dromen zijn kapot? Niemand die het weet
------
attempt to an english translation:
on the run with false hope
ends in death by drowning
one-way ticket to the bottom of the sea
no guarantee you'll survive
traveled countless kilometers, just for an existence
easy money for a smuggler
displaced from hearth and home
for the paradise
instead of that
a journey to death
Mare Nostrum
From refugee to drowned body
Mare Nostrum
Fort Europe's territory
"We're not looking forward to this wave of refugees"
Well war and violence, nobody fucking asked for that either..!
How many migrants on the bottom of the sea,
How many dreams are shattered? Nobody knows.

unkind mankind
02:41
|

|
humanity, humanity
atrocity, atrocity
i lost my hope
what a fucking joke
who the fuck's to blame
such a fucking shame
such an unkind species
but we call them mankind
isn't it ironic
or are we fucking blind
hollow existence
useless persistence

our leader, our master

Democracy’s a fallacy
Our system is a paradox
We have the right to choose
But follow like a flock
Our leader, our master
In nominus padre
Lack of courage, lack of trust
That’s how they keep you hushed
Never stepping out
The chain of command
No equality, no intelligent man

tobacco industry

|

|
Blood on your hands,
Smoke on your lungs,
Tobacco industry,
Killed your loved ones
Deforestation, tobacco cultivation
Inhale, exhale, inhale
I try to catch my breath
Before a long and painful death

berlin
02:55
|

|
the people start waking
up from their paralysis
berlin is alive again
we're feeling fabulous
molotovs and sparks
bombs and fireworks
feels like revolution
but this is not the solution
all i see are people
trapped in their cages
street battles in berlin
i know nothing changes
fulfills us for a while
doesn't change a thing
that's why they allow us
riots in berlin
get rid of all the anger
think we did our deed
that's why they allow us
fighting in the streets
useless illusion
useless illusion

kleptocracy
02:16
|

|
Whose welfare, whose state?
Whose welfare, whose state?
You grab and grab and take and take
All the money there is to make
Klepto - cracy
Land of thieves
We’re too dumb, we’re too poor
We are not worth a thought
Whose welfare, whose state?
It’s all yours, we’re too late
Power corrupts, money divides
Greedy fuckers side by side
