Violently Awake from Demo 2025 by Sediment

lifeless decay
so mentally frayed
gasping for air everyday
the shadows of their towers all look like graves
chastised and brutalized becoming so normalized
what life is worth living waiting at the gates of a fortress that soon will fall
they give you the keys just to be grease in the machine
chastised and brutalized becoming so normalized
state reliance on monopolized violence

born into this fucked up world following the light
lost in a crowd of people fighting for their lives
day after day its a sickening sight
so many people pretending to be blind but you
cant ignore cant ignore cant ignore the flames
burning bodies and who is it to blame?
can't ignore cant ignore cant ignore the screams
of people crying out for help in the fight to be free

they're warehousing people conducting raids
while your lost in the monotony of toiling for your pay
mothers, fathers, children in a cage
don't look beyond the truth
tricked by the state not to trust one and other while they prey on the weak and battered
no shelter no solice who can live this way?
we mustn't be complicate in this game

born into this fucked up world following the light
lost in a crowd of people fighting for their lives
day after day its a sickening sight
so many people pretending to be blind but you
cant ignore cant ignore cant ignore the flames
burning bodies and who is it to blame?
can't ignore cant ignore cant ignore the screams
of people crying out for help in the fight to be free
oppression repression this cycle of pain
we've gotta break out before its too late
violently awake and aware of whats at stake given this moment a chance that's ours to take
oppression repression this cycle of pain
we've gotta break out before its too late
violently awake and aware of whats at stake given this moment a chance that's ours to take
violently awake and aware of whats at stake burning for freedom in a world up in flames
oppression repression this cycle of pain
we've gotta break out before its too late
