Lyrics:
pick at the bones left on our plates suck at the gold stuck in our teeth ravenous eating at us ravenous the soils as dead as the air in their lungs relentless wasting the blood on their their lips licked by silver tongues relentless wasting kings evil for a kings ransom red eyes eye golden mean white plague ponzi scheme nice bed I hope it sleeps well the signs in their eyes on a post they have dug relentless wasting the lines underneath from the ropes they have hung relentless wasting appetite cattle call relentless wasting cling to belief of strangers or enemies representative commodity your economy blood economy your economy blood

Lyrics:
that boy died like a dream died like the light as a blackout descends on a city in stasis lit like the 1st of july a crescendo that threatens to erase us dead like hope hope lies dead with his head in the sand with his head in the sand not my hero not my parade not my war not my that girl died like a scene died like a character contrived to compel us instill us with patriot love and a hatred of those who throw daggers protect or oppose it dead like hope struck fool's gold with a gun in her hand not my hero not my parade not my war not my banners of mourning adorn the overpasses nationalist bullshit sentiment overbearing blind pride blind fucking ignorance a procession of death for the elected's convictions real arms real hearts strain for a soldier to cry on a bargaining chip for their justifications for their justifications not my hero not my parade not my war not my war

Lyrics:
black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves
dear mr president your constituents starve in the tenements this hope that you sold them the same bullshit system
black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves
dear mr president affluent upper class blue blood american the niggers are still in the slums right where they belong
one god one government two classes serve and protect no accountability no regrets retrogression rose justice
black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves black wool white wolves
In the last song on this EP, White Wolves, a hateful song and an ugly subject, we included the word nigger, a hateful and ugly word. We thought we should address its use in the liner notes and open a forum for discussion in the future. We used the term to sum up the poor and disenfranchised in america and to show how the class divide was packaged and sold to voters, and the world, as a victory of racial division in a country trying to recover from eight years (and hundreds preceding) of aging white warmongers. Hope and Change. As much as we believe that Obama believes his own words, we know that the power structure in america is much more complicated. Hope is free but change is rarely cost effective. Still more infuriating, americas foreign policy, war on terror, their accountability for the deaths of hundreds of thousands, slunk out the back door while the spotlight shifted. The rich got richer and the poor, their numbers grew and still grow. America's approval ratings shot up on the world stage while the class divide at home turned into a chasm, swallowing those on the edge. A victory indeed. So should we have used this hateful term, nigger, regardless of the subject matter? When did we assume the right? Perhaps we have none. But, as a term as ingrained in american history as apple pie and the land of opportunity, a word the singularly sums up the division of the haves and the have-nots, the repressed and the oppressor, the master and the slave, we thought to allude its use and pass it by would be worse, insulting to those who have lived with the weight of it. It is not a word in our common vocabulary, as isn't the use of 'look the other way' terms like 'n-word'. This is a discussion that could go on and on, and let's hope these types do.
