Bathos

Raging screams of the damned
Screaming through strife
Begging for life
Recoiling from the light of you
What are you to do?

He doesn't know you
So he doesn't care
He doesn't want you
So he doesn't share.

Steal with an open heart
Furies bite and you're torn apart
Laws are broken
Everyone's smokin'
Crying out in bathos voices
Denying their choices

Don't go right, it's too hard
We'll reject you if you go that way
'Cause you ain't the Bard!
Come to us, fall into apathy
Running 'round like it's an emergency
Watch the lights blaze up tonight
We rule the streets, we are the might!

But drawn up before the judge and jury
The story changes to make it more lurie.
Don't you understand?
It's racism, man!
It pens me down, won't let me go!
It flames my rage beyond all you could know!
