Everyday is war The struggle of our lives The state of mass decline We fight for our own kind Working against the grain Fighting the pain again Alleviate the senses Shutting down all my defenses To gain To lose To fall To bruise Stumbling before I fall Learn to run before I crawl This is our own form of empowerment A way to keep our sanity intact This is a stance A struggle to enhance The brand we make The noise that we create Drek kick - strain for levity Drek kick - maintain some sanity Drek kick - preserve integrity Drek kick - accept finality Drek kick - full force brutality Drek kick - void of banality Drek kick - this is totality Drek kick - indulgence all consuming Won't take us down (x4) This is our plight The struggle for our lives The meaning to an end Over and over again I'm fucking tired of the expectations, commercializations, qualifications The petty culture of this fucking nation Categories that none of us fit in Virtual fiction, social construction, perpetual wars so rich fuckers can grow Another dollar, what for? More and more Tired of the pressure to censor, to package this wreckage, to sell a few records, to put myself out there like a fucking court jester To pander, to slander, my resentment festers
