submission complete

bad religion

dedication is the price you pay: the initiated are

coddled and caged

before you walk

as soon as you crawl

hope is pointless 'cuz you're stuck in the trawl

fuck the freshman lectures and brandishments

they just betray impoverished accomplishments

the puppet masters fear originality

they tighten up the tethers and they shackle your feet

submission complete!

young recruits never have a chance

enticed to

the drill

admonished to dance

early to rise and early to shine

life is long but the end is nigh

break the guilty trammels from yesteryear

remember how rejuvenation conquers all fears

lowly opportunists take commanding roles

and hawk ultimatums so their weakness won't show

the sad reflection of dead ambition

you live for nothing

submission complete!

yeah

break the guilty trammels from yesteryear

remember how the taste of failure makes it all clear

the lowly opportunists take commanding roles

and hawk ultimatums so their weakness won't show

the sad reflection of dead ambition

you live for nothing

expectation

indoctrination

life's a damnation

submission complete!

dying on your feet

submission complete

a total defeat
