Fruit Roll Up Lyrics by Mike , Music by Justin/Mike
Fruit Roll Up has been performed at 160 shows and appears on Split 7″ w/ Raid and Live KRBX 2013
Lyrics Posing for a crew pic, looking hard as shit. But posing's all you'll ever do, and I think you know it. Sometimes I swear you're looking for a reason to be pissed. Answer slightest criticism with a bullshit threat. Face like stone, skin like paper. Skin like a fruit roll-up: easily breached, easily broken. Slide right under with any bad words spoken. Always trying to go to war, no enemies to fight against. Might as well settle for your friends.
2 Fast 2 Furious 2: Back 2 Tha Future Part II Lyrics by Mike , Music by Justin/Mike
2 Fast 2 Furious 2: Back 2 Tha Future Part II has been performed at 89 shows and appears on Fastcore Forever
Lyrics Rise and shine and it's off to work. Then go home, go in the jam room and blow off steam. Go to bed, try to sleep. Repeat ad infinitum. And the next thing I know, another year has gone by. Days go by. Days turn weeks. Weeks go by. How was your day? It was ok. How's your weekend? Keep on waiting. I got no plans. Always waiting for shit to happen. I forgot what I was waiting for. Caught between the jam room and the production room. And the next thing I know, 15 years have gone by. Weeks turn months. Months go by. Months turn years. Years go by. Life goes by. Then we die.

Congratulations has been performed at 70 shows and appears on Potrzebie 9″
Lyrics Congratulations. You have become what you hate. Ignore your own mistakes. Use your victimhood to pay it forward. Twisted and consumed. You can justify it any way you want, but you might just be an asshole. That's your choice. That's a choice you make.

Weaponize Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
Weaponize has been performed at 71 shows and appears on Split 7″ w/ Grim Statistic
Lyrics Engineering outrage. Knowledge used to weaponize for your benefit. Language manipulation. Hear the bell, salivate. Social conditioning. Response so predictable. No need to investigate. The mission is complete. Weaponize, brutalize with your lies. Who's the next to burn?
Running Shart Lyrics by Mike , Music by Dustin/Joe/Mike
Running Shart has been performed at 73 shows and appears on Running Shart
Lyrics Snow falls in the high desert. Mid-February, no signs of stopping. Cue some middle-aged red hat jackass: "What has happened to global warming? All those scientists trying to explain this shit? Clearly bought off by the fucking socialists." Earth is far more vast than what your puny eyeballs show. You can put your head in the sand and ignore every superstorm, polar vortex and mudslide. Our actions are having an effect. If we can't change our habits, I'll meet you at the water wars and I'll kill you myself.
United Snakes Of America Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
United Snakes Of America has been performed at 16 shows and appears on Potrzebie 9″
Lyrics This has to be the dumbest flag design I have ever seen. A pretense of freedom; just an excuse for you to be mean. You can't even pass an emissions test, let alone a history or sobriety test. I can't decide whether I'm bored or in pain from listening to your shit. The reality is you are trod upon every single day by the corporate oligarchy which forces you to pay. You can't even pass an emissions test, let alone a history or sobriety test. Your quality of life is not exactly the best, but at least you think you're free.
We’re Stupid Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
We’re Stupid has been performed at 58 shows and appears on Potrzebie 9″
Lyrics Holding ourselves hostage. We live our lives in chains. We know we have the key, but we flush it down the drain. Selfish and stupid. Too self-absorbed to get off our phones. Time is running out for us. The world is dying. The situation, mortifying. Everybody knows what needs to be done. We've just chosen not to do it. It's just not worth the inconvenience.
Consider You Done Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
Consider You Done has been performed at 55 shows and appears on Potrzebie 9″
Lyrics You fail to impress with your snarky smug self-righteousness. Like you really know better than anyone. I never want to agree with anything you say or be on your side. You: dumb. Your tendency towards needless hyperbole makes me tune you out so easily. If you told me I was going to hell, and I wouldn't have to see you there? Sign me the fuck up.

Lyrics One day you'll be on your fucking knees, begging for forgiveness. I will remember how slow you were to grant it.
Fuckin’ Weasels Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
Fuckin’ Weasels has been performed at 68 shows and appears on Split 7″ w/ Grim Statistic
Lyrics Weasels, fuckin' weasels, and they won't stop breeding. And they won't shut up. Mental toddlers playing with their own shit. Their only goal in life is to be a fucking dick. Nothing to be gained, nothing to be won by dignifying them with a response. Fuckin' weasels, and they won't stop breathing.
Banal Minutia Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
Banal Minutia has been performed at 55 shows and appears on Split 7″ w/ Grim Statistic
Lyrics So many crisis points all around us. And all you do is engage in your banal minutia. Same garbage every single fucking day. You can't go against those who cut your checks. Just for fucking once in your fucking life, could you fucking just do what's fucking right?
Fresh Hell Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
Fresh Hell has been performed at 163 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques
Lyrics Child exploitation. Suppression of women. Death and starvation. Roadside explosions. People living a fresh hell every day. A world away, in my life of comfort, I sit here trying and failing to imagine waking up to a fresh hell every day. World of violence cries for assistance. But the 'help' they're getting is worse than nothing.
Thicken Lyrics by Mike , Music by Mike
Thicken has been performed at 163 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques
Lyrics I'm not saying let's ignore injustice. I'm not saying let's turn a blind eye. I'm not opposed to political correctness. I'm only saying you could probably stand to have some patience. Pick your battles. Rethink the power words have over you. Thicken your skin.

Where’s The Fun? has been performed at 297 shows and appears on s/t demo , Diagnosis: Delicious 7″ , Full Spectrum Dominance 2005-08 , and Live KRBX 2013
Lyrics What's up with this craze that passes for hardcore these days? It's core in name but not in style. If you think it is, you're in denial. Fuck this. Hardcore tradition grew out of punk rock, it's true. Now this kung fu metal crap is edging punk right off the map. Fuck that. Suck ass. Where is the fun? Where is the energy? Where is the outrage? Where's the punk rock urgency? Circle pits are way more fun. You're just trying to hurt someone. Are kung fu breakdowns here to stay? Somehow we got lost along the way.

Lyrics I was right. You were fucking wrong. Don't blame me for your being fucked. It's all your fault. I'm not to blame. This one's all you. It's not me. Point out any scapegoat that you can find. You're still the asshole who fucked it all up.
