Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sanity implies
That there's intelligence
All I ever find
Is pure incompetence
Laws are washed away
Society will bleed
Scorned and left to die
And now the mutants feed
[PreChorus]
Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people's lives
[Chorus]
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
[Verse 2]
To your face they lie
Unleash and overthrow
Legal rights denied
And fall like dominoes
Hide behind the cloak
To change your way of life
Liberty revoked
A target for all time
[PreChorus]
Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people's lives
[Chorus]
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
[Chorus]
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
[Verse 3]
Biased policy
Aborting history
Exploding at the chance
With rabid arrogance
[Verse 4]
Words now weaponized
With violence criticize
Ignore the majority
And force feed insanity
[Verse 5]
Unleash hatred's wrath
And social aftermath
Your penance will be due
It's time for my own fucking coup
[PreChorus]
Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people's lives
[Chorus]
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
