Read your public statement
Too little too late
You aren’t brave for admitting
That you think it’s wrong to rape
Read your public statement
Too little too late
You aren’t brave for admitting
That you think it’s wrong to rape
He’s a good guy, backed hard
Good guy, backed hard.
He’s a good guy, backed hard
Good guy, backed hard.
I will never forgive
I will never forget
Cause your public statement
Is full of shit
You got caught and THAT’s why you’re sorry
There is no genuine remorse
You got caught and THAT’s why you’re sorry
You’re showing no genuine remorse
He’s a good guy, backed hard
Good guy, backed hard.
He’s a good guy, backed hard
Good guy, backed hard.
[insert name] fuck off!

Drop Dead

Drop dead drop dead
Can't wait till you drop dead
X4
You've done no good
In your whole life
Nothing to show
But ego and strife
You push around
Those perceived weak
What you don't know
Is that we can't be beat
Drop dead drop dead
Can't wait till you drop dead

Riding a Bike

Got back on my bike tonight
Made me feel good and feel alive
Then i remembered the last time i rode
When you took away a piece of me
Feeling the wind in my hair
as I rode by your house
Saw the orange street lamps
Smelled the Laundromat
Out of breath and heart beating fast
I remembered the next time I rode
After you forced your way inside of me
Got back on my bike tonight
Filled me with dread
made me feel dead.
Just like riding a bike.

Depression!
Don’t need medication
Anxiety!
Just get outta bed
Bi-polar!
You’re just being moody
BPD!
You just need more sleep
All in your head all in your head
I wanna be dead i wanna be dead
You’ll be okay you’ll be okay
Just smile and pray smile and pray
Make it Go Away Make it Go Away
Voiceless
No one will talk about it
Victimized
Can’t afford it
Demonized
No one will help
Criminalized
Can’t find any help
All in your head all in your head
I wanna be dead i wanna be dead
You’ll be okay you’ll be okay
Just smile and pray smile and pray
Make it Go Away Make it Go Away
Make it Go Away
Can’t throw funds at bro-ken systems
and expect it to start working
Can’t implement change to corrupt policies
While folks with no access suffer and die.

Grow Up

Responsibility, empathy and compassion
are all signs of a strong person
not feminized
not gendered
It’s basic human decency!!!
human decency!!!
Instead of deifying women,
Instead of blaming your gender,
Start working on yourself
To be better!
Emulate personal traits
You find mystifying and compelling
Responsibility, empathy and compassion
Human decency!!
I am not your mom!
I am not your mom!
I am not your mom!
I am not your mom!
GROW UP!!!

I NEVER EVER WANT TO HAVE A KID!!!
WHY BRING THEM INTO A WORLD OF SHIT?
YOU WILL NEVER CHANGE MY MIND
THAT DECISION’S ONLY MINE!!!
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU I’M GETTING AN ABORTION!!!
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU IT’S MY DECISION!!!!
SINGLED OUT IN BUDGET CUTS
THEY PASS LAWS THAT WILL DEFUND US
CLAIM TO CARE ABOUT OUR LIVES
THEY WOULD RATHER SEE US DIE
PAINTING PICTURES OF STUPID CHOICES
NOT HEARING OUR TIRED VOICES
DENYING OUR BASIC NEED
FOR BODILY AUTONOMY
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU I’M GETTING AN ABORTION!!!
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU IT’S MY DECISION!!!!
WE WON’T GO BACK
WE CAN’T GO BACK

JUST BECAUSE SOME TIME HAS PAST
DOESN'T MEAN YOU GET A PASS
YOU DON'T GET MY APPROVAL
YOU DON'T GET MY SUPPORT
I REMEMBER WHAT DO YOU DID
I WILL ALWAYS BRING IT UP
ACCUSE ME OF BEING PETTY
BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE REALITY
I REMEMBER WHAT YOU DID
YOU WILL NEVER EARN MY TRUST AGAIN
YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE TO DO THE RIGHT THING
YOU ARE SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT.

Corrupted
00:57

What makes you think you have any power over me?
You wanna corrupt me?
What the fuck does that mean?
My convictions and decisions
Are not something to conquer
What makes you think you’re entitled to my body?
So women who are different
Are ragged and used?
I’m not your new porcelain doll
To ruin and abuse
I will not be your girl next door fantasy

Don't Go

Self-worth is not measured
by your productivity
Fighting to stay alive
Is accomplishment every day
I wish the weight of this world
Didn’t make us want to die.
Capitalism makes us think
That we need to earn our self-worth
You have earned it by existing
You have earned it by being alive!
I'm so glad you are alive!
Thank you for being alive!
I wish you were still alive!
Don’t Go.

["And now you're even looking at- even if you're like "No I listen to lots of girl punk!" if you're looking at even on the most progressive dude's itunes, you're looking at maybe like what? 1 in like 8 or 9 people tops? It's assumed that the [people who play the instruments ARE men until you find out they're not men."]
You can be a mess and you can be a rock
They would talk with you for hours
about anything at all
Never skipping a beat
to be there when you called
Gave 4th, 5th, & 6th chances
To written off lost causes
to them, no one was lost
To them, you could always grow
Now everything I do, I think “What would Joey Do”
Cause even though they were a mess
They were always there for you

Exile leads to more abuse
Ignoring it is hiding the truth
Working together
Helps our community grow
Your clout, your band, your fans
Mean nothing if you betray
Won't defend you
Always believe the victim
But your inflated ego
Will not cushion the fall
Dismantle the pedestal
Dismantle the pedestal
Dismantle the pedestal
Dismantle the pedestal
Work together,
heal together
Create spaces
where we can all grow
You are not alone,
You are not alone
Dismantle the pedestal

Our system is broken
There’s no changing from within
Why fight from the inside
When it’s all about them
Disrupt disrupt, don’t give them your trust
Disrupt disrupt, don’t give them your trust
Politician egos
are what drives the laws that they make
They don’t care about the people
They’re all fucking fake
cooperation with the cops
And “peaceful protests”
Is just a sign
That you don’t give a shit about the oppressed
Disrupt disrupt, don’t give them your trust
Disrupt disrupt, don’t give them your trust
It’s time to take action
Stop sitting on the fence
Stop trusting police
Stop demonizing violence
Don’t work with them!
Stand up against them!
Don’t work with them!
Stand up against them!
Disrupt disrupt, don’t give them your trust
Disrupt disrupt, don’t give them your trust

Anti establishment
Studs out
Fists up
Stay loud
Take up space
Constantly judge
Never learn
Never budge
You're a radical feminist
But transmisogynist
Anti Nazi
But you refuse to see
How your actions and words
Affect others around you
You'll always be heard
You'll always be heard
Shut the fuck up and listen
Learn and reflect
Grow as a human
Shows others respect!
Get better or Get lost!!

See it in the headlines
That will never happen here
Families ripped from their homes
But it’ll never happen here
An entire country
Built on white fear
Monsters in uniform
But it’ll never happen here
You are terrorists
You are scum
Just cowards with guns
Teach ICE and the Police
How to fucking run
See it in the headlines
That will never happen here
Families ripped from their homes
But it’ll never happen here
Waiting till 2020
What a fucking waste of time
Placing your faith in democrats
What a fucking waste of time
You are terrorists
You are scum
Just cowards with guns
Teach ICE and the Police
How to fucking run

Want to trust you
Maybe he’s one of the good ones
He says the right things
Posts all the right articles
But he’s just a disappointment
Waiting to happen
But you're just a disappointment
Waiting to happen
Who's next
Who's next
Who's next
You're all the same
Turns out to be
a bro in disguise
A rapist in sheep's clothing
An abuser with punk cred
I want to trust them
I want to believe!
That their words aren't a cover
To manipulate and deceive
Who's next
Who's next
Who's next
You're all the same
No one is safe!

We actively try to make everyone feel safe
We listen to your insecurities
We listen and work to lift you up
We make you feel good and heard and valid.
But when we come to you
with our own need to vent
Suddenly you’re too busy
or you don’t know what to say
why is that okay
why is that the norm?
this work is exhausting!
this work is exhausting!
you put us on a pedestal
Cause we listen to your thoughts
but when we can’t make time for you
Suddenly we’re selfish?
Why is it on me to sort out your shit
why not your bro who you’re way tighter with?
cause showing feelings means you’re fucking weak
vulnerability is for fucking pussies
“we don’t talk about this kind of stuff”
“my bros have never seen me cry”
“i’ve never told anyone this”
have you ever even tried?
Start pulling your weight
You’re breaking our backs
start pulling your weight
you’re breaking our backs
