Any War - Ceschi, Factor Chandelier, Astronautalis

Because of the way this society’s organized

Because of the violence that exists on the surface everywhere

You have to expect that there are going to be such explosions

You have to expect things like that as reactions

We have been broken and we have been beaten

And we have been stuck to the bottom floor

But we are focused and we still believe in the chance

That the world could be so much more

Our planet’s eroding but we’ll still be growing

And we’ll still be growing and we’ll still be

Ready for anything, ready for anything, ready for any war

We have been broken and we have been beaten

And we have been stuck to the bottom floor

But we are focused and we still believe in the chance

That the world could be so much more

Our planet’s eroding but we’ll still be growing

And we’ll still be growing and we’ll still be

Ready for anything, ready for anything, ready for any war

Top of the morning

Fought my way out of a dream, I was soaring

Forty stories, now I’m back on my feet

And the earth is crumbling below me

I can feel it disintegrating into infinite pebbles in space

I can see us becoming nothing

I can smell the eruption and face every minute of pain

Can’t settle for psychopath leaders

I want to believe in the people

I want to believe we could be living equally

Call me naive or a dreamer, I want to believe in you

If more of us could see we don’t need them, lived peacefully

Without the fucking police or a prison

Without a religion, it’s faith

Alter the human condition

This ain’t rapping, I’m vomiting honesty

Really not promising anything

Born as the type to demolish a tower then build again

Fuck a minuteman

Ain’t no sympathy for the devil

And we’re running away from God

Don’t be afraid of these laws

Break them, erase them, replace it all

We may be defeated

But life is too short to be stepped on and treated like cretins

I mean every word of it

Stop being comfortable with your subservience

Permanent vermin in office are burning us all to a crisp

While we’re watching our bodies ignite into flames

Ain’t no fucking game

Keep on living, defending each other

We’ll find a way

We have been broken and we have been beaten

And we have been stuck to the bottom floor

But we are focused and we still believe in the chance

That the world could be so much more

Our planet’s eroding but we’ll still be growing

And we’ll still be growing and we’ll still be

Ready for anything, ready for anything, ready for any war

We have been broken and we have been beaten

And we have been stuck to the bottom floor

But we are focused and we still believe in the chance

That the world could be so much more

Our planet’s eroding but we’ll still be growing

And we’ll still be growing and we’ll still be

Ready for anything, ready for anything, ready for any war

I wasn’t born upon the fourth of July

But I’m the son of a dozen soldiers, soldiers, soldiers

Living through war all the time

I thought I told ya, told ya, I ain’t never scared

But once you sobered, sobered, sobered

I saw that it wasn’t a God damned lie

So fuck it man, let us in there ain’t no heaven or hell

All we really need is us and some food on the shelf

A box a bullets, fuck your pulpit

Fuck your power and wealth

We can push it we can pull it till it topples on down

Statues fall and they crumble easier than they built

Ain’t no small, ain’t no humble when there’s anger and will

Yeah, you stand tall if you want to but you just walkin' on stilts

We kick them shits, you hit the bricks

Are you still feelin' yourself?

And I’m like, «Ayy»

I see that Black Bloc and that Antifa on front page

And I’m laughing when they sucker punched that face

That alt-right gets goodnight, caught fades

So, expect us, respect us, or pay

We have been broken and we have been beaten

And we have been stuck to the bottom floor

But we are focused and we still believe in the chance

That the world could be so much more

Our planet’s eroding but we’ll still be growing

And we’ll still be growing and we’ll still be

Ready for anything, ready for anything, ready for any war

We have been broken and we have been beaten

And we have been stuck to the bottom floor

But we are focused and we still believe in the chance

That the world could be so much more

Our planet’s eroding but we’ll still be growing

And we’ll still be growing and we’ll still be

Ready for anything, ready for anything, ready for any war
