Predator

You putrid little cockroach
Have you lost your head
Touch us again and you’ll wish you were dead
I’m sick of your infestation, of your blight
That beady gaze locked on targets it can exploit

Entitled, loathsome, compulsive
Who taught you to be so repulsive
You govern your mind with flesh
And all you will taste is death
All you taste is death

Of this I’m certain
The day has come to exterminate the vermin
Choke off, create an infarction 
Eradicate your legacy with arson

The end of silence
Conditioning to violence
Rise up, let them hear us say
This was never okay
We can’t be broken
Not now, our eyes are open
Today will be the day
When predator becomes the prey

This poor little rabbit
Trapped inside a cage
Quivering with fear and your suppressed rage
I see your struggle, your need for relief
Safety and value taken by the hands of a thief

I know you have been oppressed
For how you look and how you’re dressed
They told us we belong beneath
Asked us to smile, so we’ll show them our teeth

Justice will find you

The end of silence
Conditioning to violence
Rise up, let them hear us say
This was never okay
We can’t be broken
Not now, our eyes are open
Today will be the day
When predator becomes the prey

You putrid little cockroach
Have you lost your head
Touch us again and you’ll wish you were dead
