Songs that discuss ponerization?

[ScarletBegonias]

Lately I've been finding songs that relate to ponerization and I would like to post them on here. If anyone else can find any and wants to post them, feel free!

VHS or Beta - "Burn it Down"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYDnWSFwo7Q&feature=related

We will try to waste them
s'you can try to feel 'em?
It's all in the name of hell
we got to fear it with a good sensation
it's easy come and go

we want something
everyone wants something
everyone's got to believe
we take you to it
nothing else to do
but live the life, it's all a lie

we burn the flags
burn the house
burn the church
just burn it all down

we burn the streets
burn the trees
burn the lessons
burn it all down
we burn the flags
burn the house
burn the church
just burn it all down

we burn the signs
burn the saints
burn the sinners
burn the whole thing down down down
burn it all down

We pay with riches
we took the stitches out of our wounded eyes
install the masses with cynical retraction
they know your coded lies
We can't function, no one here can function
no one can even speak
I hear the bombs, a million shiny bombs
I close my eyes

I'll bring the bread you'll bring the wine
this party's over one last time
burn it all down

I don't think burning things down is going to resolve the problem, but hey at least people are discussing options, I guess, heh...

AWOLNATION - "Guilty Filthy Soul"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEzubO8dKdA

There's a mad man looking at you
and he wants to take your soul.
There's a mad man with a mad plan
and he's dancing at your door. Oh
What to do, oooh
what to do
when the walls are built to crumble.
There's a mad man with a mad plan
and he waits for us to stumble.

Oooh, but our eyes are open
yeah, they're really open
(5, 4, 3, 2, 1)
I say we rob from the rich
and blow down the door.
On to the next
to dance with the poor.
Jump on my shoulders.
You can jump on my shoulders.
We rob from the rich
and blow down the door.
On to the next
to dance with the poor.
Jump on my shoulders.
You can jump on my shoulders.

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Everybody it's ok if
you're mad at what I'm saying.
Make peace, baby shake my hand cuz
I'm pretty sure I'm staying. Oh
what to do, ooooh
look at you, when the walls begin
to crumble.
It's a mad man with a mad plan
and he waits for us to stumble.

Oooh, but our eyes are open
yeah, they're really open
(5, 4, 3, 2, 1)
I say we rob from the rich
and blow down the door.
On to the next
to dance with the poor.
Jump on my shoulders.
You can jump on my shoulders.
We rob from the rich
and blow down the door.
On to the next
to dance with the poor.
Jump on my shoulders.
You can jump on my shoulders.

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

I'll say the devils lost control

Live in the water
I'm scared of the city
Stay in the water
I'm scared of the city
Live in the water
I'm scared of the city.

I'm scared of the city
live in the water
I'm scared of the city
I'll pray for you

I say we rob from the rich
and blow down the door.
On to the next
to dance with the poor.
Jump on my shoulders.
You can jump on my shoulders.
We rob from the rich
and blow down the door.
On to the next
to dance with the poor.
Jump on my shoulders.
You can jump on my shoulders.

Seriously...It's not supposed to be easy...
that's why it feels so fucking good.
Jump on my shoulders, yeah.

I don't think stealing from the rich will fix things either...

Rusted Root - "Ecstasy"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsGIDFTURaY

Take away your paper & pen
Stacks of money and your foolish grin
And go

Get me off the backwards ride
Take away your greedy way and go
See the woman standing at the door
World gone by ... Again and again
See the blisters growing on your feet
Pushed on... Pushed on
World gone by

Take away your companies
Take away your societies and go
Get me off this backwards ride
Take away your fictitious books of fact
See the woman standing in the door
World gone by ... Again and again
See the blisters growing on your feet
Pushed on ... Pushed on
World gone by

I wouldn’t want to be
Living in a world of ecstasy with you

Wasted arms; wasted legs
Wrapped round this machine
Military machine

I wouldn’t want to be
Living in a world of ecstasy with you

Taken’ away your companies
Takin’ away your societies and go.
Get me off this backwards ride,
Takin’ away your ficticious books of fact.
Yeah, do mum-ba-si-be-ah

 

[Aneke]

I'm pretty sure this one speaks for itself.

At the Gates: Under a Serpent Sun

Web of corruption thick with deceit
The language of destruction, the slaughter of the meek

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

No rest for the wicked, the children of god
The final retribution, the final curtain torn
Within us - the flames of the end
Survival of the fittest, the hunt for the sacred game

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

Children of chaos - born of the holocaust seed
Inherit the addiction, angels of genocide breed
Within us - the flames of the end
Survival of the fittest, the hunt for the sacred game

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

Sweetfleshed, hellbent creature
Artist of the fevered soul
Heavenly venomous rapture
Stricken numb by fear I fall

Then, two Katatonia songs that in my opinion are meant to compliment each other. The first, entitled Leaders, is about those who have "given in" and see resistance as not only futile, but as foolish and weak.

Katatonia: Leaders

Leaders come
Stand in line
Reveal your true self and conform
I sold my song
Crossed the borderline
I found something I'd never adjust to

Come here
I've paid up for you
I have sold my weakness too
Come here
I split my heart in two
But you don't have it in you?
Do you?

Carbon soul
Transparent and played out
See you soon in non-fiction
I sold my song
My mouth was sewn
But it's coming undone and that's why I sold out

Come here
I've paid for you
I have sold my weakness too
Come here
I split my heart in two
But you don't have it in you?
Do you?

The second one, entitled Forsaker, appeared on the following album and functions as an answer, or a reply, to Leaders. It's interesting how the concept of finding one's true self is re-examined.

Katatonia: Forsaker

Rage from a distance
The name unfamiliar
Spikes reach the heart
Time set for rewind

The dark will rise
Abandon your freedom
Give up the right to find the true self
Forsake your own reasons

Forsaker
Forsaker

Hand of a leader
Bleached by snowfall
Position is a drug
The great end is sweeping in

The dark will rise
Abandon your freedom
Give up the right to find the true self
Forsake your own reasons

Forsaker
Forsaker
Forsaker

Under a serpent sun - we shall all live as one

Hey these are great! Thanks for sharing them, Aneke! It fascinates me that psychopaths seem to be really into promoting oneness. For example, Dahmer ate people in an effort of becoming one with them and Nilsen killed his victims so he could apparently have friends who would not leave him. Now here we are facing a one world government. Talk about redefining "one love!"

Ozomatli just hit it all on the nail with this song!

Who's to blame?
Who's the one who sparked the flame?
The victim who became part of the game?
We deal in murder for money, sex and fame.
The question remains the same: who's to blame?

Yo, my heart's torn as I watch my art form
Give plaques & charms to writers of wack poems
Divided attacks, tryin' to collapse this platform
In this rap, we detach from any distraction
Yes, sever the head of the evil music(meant to divide & confuse kids) the media spoon-feeds you
People who need you concede to your bluffin'
Parasitic poison unfit for human consumption
Why they focus on one of they crusades
While most of human life is as fragile as loose eggs
Vatican they paid for they role in the slave trade
So how can you place blame on the hate that hate made?
Secret political interests hide from view
You police the planet, but who protects us from you?
While wars are waged over pathetic turf
We elect leaders with no regard for planet earth

Who's to blame?
Who's the one who sparked the flame?
The victim who became part of the game?
We deal in murder for money, sex and fame.
The question remains the same: who's to blame?

Big credentials rollin' through my residential overplayed
People then members of presidential motorcades
Rollin' single-file like wheels on rollerblades
They think we'll bow, but their welcome is overstayed
I pull the cage on the grandest scale
Cause the man who fails to plan really plans to fail, for real
Flows they close and do stunts 'cause all they want's the wit of your ignorance
To bury a man's sanity can it be so simple?
Today's medics, genetically grown people
And where we had it pathetic where citizens give up their civil liberties
To officers of evil intent & devilish tendencies
While enemies join forces to endorse this mental extortion gone corporate
When will the corporate forfeit morbid acts on the helpless?
Ignoring facts 'til they selfish aristocrats who flex well in the time where sex sells
Their crime rhymes melt kids' minds like soft snails
Either you end up in jail or caught shells
But time blinds, help kids find their thoughts well, for real
The media's how they get too attached
To violent images permanent like Yakuza tattoos
They got shoes, relax the underwear
While adult messages traumatize the younger ear

Who's to blame?
Who's the one who sparked the flame?
The victim who became part of the game?
We deal in murder for money, sex and fame.
The question remains the same: who's to blame?

Rich rappers when you talk it, i hope you keep your topics
As deep as your pockets and use logic
The words kill before you have time to breathe
What the ears hear & the eyes see, the mind believes
While they hang you from your ankle and they take what falls
Citizens of this planet deserve a wake-up call
He who hides knowledge controls this grand scheme
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.

Who's to blame?
Who's the one who sparked the flame?
The victim who became part of the game?
We deal in murder for money, sex and fame.
The question remains the same: who's to blame?

 

[Teresa]

These lyrics are really good. As I was reading two other songs popped into my head. They are older, but I still think they are relevant.

Nine Inch Nails 1989

"Head Like A Hole"

God money I'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.

[Bridge:]
no you can't take it
no you can't take it
no you can't take that away from me
no you can't take it
no you can't take it
no you can't take that away from me

head like a hole.
black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
head like a hole.
black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.

[Chorus:]
bow down before the one you serve.
you're going to get what you deserve.
bow down before the one you serve.
you're going to get what you deserve.

God money's not looking for the cure.
God money's not concerned with the sick amongst the pure.
God money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised.
God money's not one to choose

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

you know who you are.

Pink Floyd 1987

"The Dogs Of War"

Dogs of war and men of hate
With no cause, we don't discriminate
Discovery is to be disowned
Our currency is flesh and bone
Hell opened up and put on sale
Gather 'round and haggle
For hard cash, we will lie and deceive
Even our masters don't know the web we weave

One world, it's a battleground
One world, and we will smash it down
One world ... One world

Invisible transfers, long distance calls,
Hollow laughter in marble halls
Steps have been taken, a silent uproar
Has unleashed the dogs of war
You can't stop what has begun
Signed, sealed, they deliver oblivion
We all have a dark side, to say the least
And dealing in death is the nature of the beast

One world, it's a battleground
One world, and we will smash it down
One world ... One world

The dogs of war won't negotiate
The dogs of war don't capitulate,
They will take and you will give,
And you must die so that they may live
You can knock at any door,
But wherever you go, you know they've been there before
Well winners can lose and things can get strained
But whatever you change, you know the dogs remain.

One world, it's a battleground
One world, and we will smash it down
One world ... One world
