Give, take, improve, a better mood It’s mine, this feeling that I’m feeling fine, And I’m not wasting my time, Because I’ve finally made up my mind. Stupid things can wait, let go of fear and hate It’s yours, reprieve from feeling jaded and bored, The keys to unlock these doors, And the courage to take what is yours.

In the van, time to die. We drove until the morning time, Hate city where our friends reside A perfect place to dumpster dive. This twilight zone road, will never grow old Our souls offered up, to punk rock and roll Crash and burn. All dead. Enter the void. Story time, committing crimes, Over in Miami side. We’re gonna blow Beer Punx sky high Sending MDS off Right!

You look so pretty You smell so fine I wanna wear your skin All the fucking time!

Evict Us 01:12
I’m gonna pay my rent in fun Gonna throw a part and invite everyone We’re gonna drink all fucking night And if the cops come, start a fight Not gonna be another victim, Not gonna let those bastards evict us Got a notice the other day They’re coming to take our box away The neighbors say we fucking smell We sit on the stoop and say burn in hell Now I live in a garbage can On Sesame Street, I do the best I can Lost my job, lost my couch Neighborhood kids call me Oscar the grouch
5.
I got my bleach, I know my cause No man can stop me, I disobey laws. The world is bleak, the world is shit No child should have to look at it. I give them a blind man’s grace When I pour my bleach into their face. I help blind children

Got this dance, it’s a little mean We call it the David Karadine. You wrap a rope around your neck, And then you beat your meat until you choke to death Do the David Karadine, kill yourself.

Goodbye 02:25
The light came on and I realized That I’ve been digging for two years time That moment killed and stilled my spade For the sake of love, I dug a grave I put to rest her sins and mine I put to rest these wicked lies So wipe those tears and dry those eyes I broke her heart, and it breaks mine Goodbye
8.
Beaten 03:12
Rage, he looks too much like his dad Pain, she mourns the future that she wish she had Matt comes over and cries My mother she don’t love me, why? All we can do is lie Maybe this will be the last time But his bruises tell us the truth At 13 there’s nothing to do Still we tell him press on The beaten son still loves his mom
9.
I encounter leaches Drain on my life They don’t understand the cause of their strife Comes not from a world That don’t owe you a thing What you bring to the tablets what you receive Devouring time So don’t waste my time Don’t buzz in my ear What you refuse to listen to Is what you need to hear So grow the hell up And stop playing games Learning from your failures Alleviates pain Don’t waste my time, it’s the only thing that’s mine Don’t waste my time, you fucking swine

Invictus 01:36
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.
11.
Purpose 03:19
Moments aren’t linear they’re random like the die You go from sad to happy in the blink of and eye Sometimes you get to smile other times you gotta cry Sometimes you gotta sit and you gotta wonder why? What the hell’s my purpose? My purpose is to try What the hell’s my purpose? My purpose is to fight If you died and came back and got to choose what you’d be Would you make the choice with wisdom, be blind or would you see The things you wish were different mean nothing without this It’s the struggle that defines you, without it you ain’t shit Down, down hill Down, down wind The tide pull against me, but I’ll fight and I’ll win I find myself beneath the waves My body screaming out in pain Begging me to make it out I can’t let these waves force me down
12.
Close 01:12
There’s eternity in the moments we share Escape from the maw of despair Even now my heart still burns there Keep these moments close We don’t love like we hate We don’t trust like we fear We ask how we got here But not how to escape So we need to find the strength To look past this narrow gait Understand there’s no fate Worse than when we fade away So we write these songs We make this art We dance from the heart Forever here
13.
Folded arms Sullen frowns You think your dreads Are a golden crown? You conversate Moan and piss That’s time you waste And fun you miss No one wants to play for the judging dead Shut the fuck up and dance!

about

Fucksake Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A three piece hardcore punk outfit from Philadelphia. Creating music that’s fast, catchy, and a little absurd. We got a style that’s reminiscent of the 90s hardcore and a little thrash with perspectives that are entirely unique. We’re here telling the stories that matter to us the best way we know how, and we’re having a hell of a good time doing it. ... more
