Century — kurt.riley+praxis

I’ve had enough
Had enough of this century
I’ve had enough
If this is how it’s gonna be

We used to verbalize
Now we’re balkanized
We bark at each other like rabid dogs
It’s a parody
Of a threnody
Consuming trash like gorging hogs
Seven trumpets are sounding

Take me anywhere
I’m no billionaire
All I want is to stay alive
This ain’t my century

Precious little snowflake
Is exploring her identity
While her sister in the Middle East
Is stoned ‘cause she wants to be free

You’re a hypocrite
And I’m sick of it
Keep on posting - no one cares
When narcissism
Masquerades as activism
It’s a sad, sad state of affairs
Not one I want to be found in

Take me anywhere
I’m no billionaire
All I want is to stay alive
This ain’t my century
