Degenerate Society

I am filled with disgust
All I see is this degenerate society
Tired of trying to understand
Don’t care if I’m understood
Fuck society and fuck the world
These are the times of older youth—TRIBE
I am filled with disgust
All I see is this degenerate society
We’ll die this way
With this productive hate
Everyone’s a seeping wound
Infected with a lack of depth or passion
Or a will to do anything but consume
The happy are the low, smiling black holes for me to shit into
Fuck you
These are the times of older youth
Born of rage, raised in hate
Never gonna take the bait
Outcast by choice, forging our own way
Never gonna be degenerate
A man once said to me:
You’re so bitter an angry
You’ll always be alone that way
I laughed: that’s ok!
Never gonna be degenerate
Hollow nation, empty generation
Narcissist’s vapidity, saying “I’m just doin’ me”
But you ain’t anything
Never gonna be degenerate

I have no respect for you
A lifer means more than tattoos
You’re not one of us
You got older? So did I
You’re not a “punk in disguise”
You’re not one of us
Adulthood? Career? 9-5?
I’m laughing so hard let me dry my eyes
You’re not one of us
You get nothing from me
For your mainstream conventions and lack of creativity
Or your participation in this bullshit society
OUTCAST BY CHOICE
LIFERS!
I didn’t drop out because I couldn’t fit in, no
Their culture’s a toilet where success is shit
You’re not one of us

Further in, further away
I don’t relate
And when you speak I don’t know what you say
No patience for the tribulations of your role in the mass degeneration, naw
Your world is small and I don’t care at all
We read, we ride, we contemplate our time
We crave more (EATEN ALIVE) than a purchased life
You’re spent, you’ve been eaten alive
You’re spent! You’ve been eaten alive!
Further in, further away
I don’t relate
And when you speak I don’t know what you say
No patience for the tribulations of the undead’s mass disintegration, naw
Your world is small and I don’t care at all

You Ain't Shit

You ain’t shit
You’ll never be shit
Self-imposed limitations
Got your life writ
You’re weak, I’m not
Don’t think I took your spot
Cuz you never tried—You ain’t shit
Not naïve, you hide—You’ll never be shit
You fight specters and whine
Instead of putting in time
You’re weak, I’m not
You lie and now you’re caught
That’s right you entitled motherfucker
Your only skill is sitting on your hands while pointing fingers at others
The world is not to blame for the self-defeatist
I came from nothing, self fucking made
You had your life handed to you, yet you wasted it away
You ain’t shit
I used to think we were all the same—YOU AIN’T SHIT
But now I know I’m better—YOU AIN’T SHIT
My successes are relentless—YOU AIN’T SHIT
Just like your resentment
No sympathy for bourgeois apathy
You ain’t shit to me
You ain’t shit and you’ll never be shit

I finally found a modern classic hardcore band!
go to album
Planet Fatigue
by Carradine Choke
UK82-inspired hardcore punk from Christchurch, New Zealand, gruff and fast and economical and, of course, righteously pissed.
go to album
Dead Cross, Retox, and Qui members dish out subversive hardcore with an indignant smirk; come for the riffs, stay for the synth experiments.

This entire album rips. I've had this on repeated play several times since it came out. I wish I had heard it a week earlier when they played in Boston. One of my fav albums in this genre period.
