war on the palaces

i carry history with me

i carry hope

all the nameless faces before us

let's carry them all

i wanna carry the dead

wage war on the palaces

you carry judgment and privilege

with morals to spend

can't see the grids for the structures

you're just one of them

who talk about freedom and progress

with a corpse in your mouth

you've never tasted the violence

that gave us our rights

how did you think we got here?

you took our gains for granted

you think we stumbled upon them on our way to find ourselves

let's carry the dead

wage war on the palaces

because you know: you'll be judged too

what did you fight for

exactly what did you do?

let's get rhetorical without going too far

tell me: who's responsible?

you fucking are

let's carry the dead

war on the palaces
