If you want a better world you have to make one; nobody else will do it for you. With every deed, action and thought you can change the world. You must strive. You must be ceaseless.
There is no superior force to even the score.
The selfish and greedy get bloated on the apathy of others. If you want to stop them exploiting everyone on the planet, wielding destruction and misery, you have to oppose what they are doing and make things better.
There’s a much better way of running this world.
It starts with us.
It’s No Good Wishing
It’s no good wishing
Cos life ain’t fair
It’s no good wishing
Wishing ain’t gonna get you there
It’s nice to dream
It’ll all work out fine
It’s nice to dream
It evens out in time
The bastards get theirs
And the victims come through
“Evil sickheads
It rebounds back on you”
It’s no good pretending
There’s a heaven up there
With some nice guy in a beard
Who’s gonna make it fair.
One day you’ll die
And it’ll all be alright
You get your rewards
They’ll get the shite
It’s no good fearing
You’ll get punished for wrong
On judgement day
The weak will be made strong
There’s a hell down below us
To even things out
Eternal pains and pleasures
All fairly dished about
It would be nice
If our karma rang true
You get what you deserve
It always comes through
But life ain’t like that
And neither is death
No evening up
No new life’s breath
When your heart stops beating
And your eyes no longer to see
You will feel nothing
You’ll just cease to be
No fires of redemption
No eternal life
No new battles to face
No love and no strife
When your eyes close
The universe fades
And it won’t even miss you
As you rot in your grave
So if you want justice
Or some better deal
You’ve got to make it happen
With all of your will
It’s no good wishing
Cos life ain’t fair
It’s no good wishing
Wishing won’t get you there
