1.	Mother Concrete 03:54	lyrics
As I walk through the valley of blacktop I try to reminisce reminisce the best of times Reminisce reminisce my awful crimes Tangled in the plastered mudd I witness Lost souls begging for forgiveness But I'll keep on smilin' Cause the blood is boilin' And my head is burnin' My fate is sealed but the wheel's a turnin' Moira's table still spinning like the barrel of a gun Refraction on the road shimmering under a dying sun And we keep on walkin' In this world we're killing And we keep on dying And the world's still turning Mother concrete would you pray for your sons Mother concrete would you pray for our sins Mother concrete pray for the dreadful ones Mother concrete would you cut the puppet strings The spirits are ill and the bodies are aching Ceding under pressure all the tempers are flaring There is no excuse for what I've done and I'm not looking for one There's no shame in me I left it to the lambs of the holy son Pleading guilty for all the lives I did not take Asphalt was the name of the snake Taking his Word is a choice I make My God is made of concrete and she brings me what I need The streets work in mysterious ways and feed on the ones who bleed And we keep on walkin' In this world we're killing And we keep on dying And the world's still turning Mother concrete would you pray for your sons Mother concrete would you pray for our sins Mother concrete pray for the dreadful ones Mother concrete would you cut the puppet strings In my veins A river of tar Tie my chains To a burning car
2.	Powerless 04:33	lyrics
Punching the clock for the last time Another perp is getting in line To hit the ground and fall into the grime An affliction, A moment of truth, our condition A wake up call in this world made out of fiction Sadly enough this tragedy is no exception How many times I looked away for my protection This shit is happening in a worldwide fuckfest If you want to cast the stone, then be my guest Let the taint of the killer colour the back of your vest With my eye in the tomb I'll be disturbing your rest We're all pawns in a mad game, and not even playin' A pornographic gaze upon the world we're throwing Only watching, always judging It's insane, but I'm saying Powerless We're put to the test Blind, and confined Those feelings we repress Time will ease the pain carved into the chest Deeper is the guilt because we care less Apathy, ears going deaf to the dire sounds of agony Calling our nation the shepherd of humanity But we got so much hatred going on This idea of justice that we feed upon All those values that we boast about The ones that make the people wanna shout But all we can hear is the loudest of the voices The stamp of hatred, red upon the faces Trumps and Marinnes, making noises Turning our screams, into poison We can not think, we can not breathe We can not think, and we all seethe Aren't we all paralyzed ? Falling from grace The end of our race Powerless We're put to the test Blind, and confined Those feelings we repress Time will ease the pain carved into the chest Deeper is the guilt because we care less We all fade away With a burden in our hand
