destroy the man

out of the dirt and up on our legs

we used to crawl but that's hardly changed

raped our sisters

had our way with them

ruled that we should rule

called ourselves men

invented poetry

impaired it with fame

killed the poet to usurp his name

distorted philosophy to further war

man's greatest feat would enslave us all

oh

how we love the shackles when we control the chains

destroy the man

death to death

conceived the structures

made up the rules

to our benefit we defined the tools

worshipped ourselves and our own kind

molded history in our design

let's destroy his story too

let's destroy and start something new

destroy the man

death to death
