Intro 07:07
Let them call us terrorists. The power of truth always provokes terror in the hearts of the workers of injustice. And you who step on the backs of the innocent and grind that faces of the poor, be afraid, be terrified. Tremble. For this is only a whispering of what is to come. Us lions are still cubs, the storm has yet to materialize, and the fire is held in check. But we are growing, the storm is forming, and the fire, the fire is coming... -Jimmy We Will Come For What's Ours DIY Zine from St. Petersburg, Fl Circa 2011

Watch 07:37
I watched my brother Take the bullet for me As his body collapsed I fell to my knees Blood and dirt smeared All across our faces My body shook as He lost his breath It’s in this bed Where his body lays He is nothing but a heartbeat His mind is astray The sound of guns Are still ringing in my ears Visions of bodies rotting They’ve kept me up for years I’m woken up from sleep By the sound of screams My soul is a demon I’m going to break this spell I watched my brother Take the bullet for me As his body collapsed I fell to my knees Blood and dirt smeared All across our faces My body shook as he lost his breath It’s in this bed Where his body lays He’s nothing but a heartbeat His mind’s astray

Immokalee 09:18
Waking in the morning Before the sun rises Lacing up their boots And saying their goodbyes Loading up their trucks With tears in their eyes Working in the blistering sun Cracked hands; throats dry Slavery is not dead It’s busy in the fields Immokalee men and women Letting down their shields They pick until their hands bleed They fall down to their knees Picking for corporations Who won’t pay for what they need Picketing on the corner For what we know is right Greedy corporations Denying their human rights The Immokalee slave ship Runs silent in the night Tired human beings Fighting for their lives We are the voices of what they try to say Fear of not eating every single day Fear of a beating every single day Who are you to objectify a life this way It is important that we all work together It is important that we nurture, care, and love each other Slavery in masses still exist today Education in masses is the only way Corporations live off the lives of a slave trade It’s in the fields Where sweat soaks into the Earth It’s in the factories where Blood fills the smoke stacks Where death is born Slavery doesn’t stick to just one type of work It doesn’t pick your gender or the year of your birth Slavery chooses you whether you accept it or you don’t The only way to fight slavery Is for everyone to know Slavery is not dead It’s working in the fields.

Collapsed 05:05
Say goodnight to the ones you love More war no peace As the Earth engulfs me My tongue is tied I have no pride The Earth collapsed No where to turn back Look out to the open water Let it drift you away The Earth is black Open your eyes and let it burn inside My soul is free Can you feel it crumbling inside your mind Buried in the ground Can you feel it crumbling deep down inside Swept away in the sea Existence no longer For you and me Minimal meaning In the lost galaxy Collapsed.

about

We would like to send our deepest gratitude to Trevor Boddy for recording us, and Brandy Robertson for keeping Frankenstein and the cat clan occupied. A special thank you to Evan Martinez for being there for everything. We want to thank our families and friends that mean so much to us and inspire us to do the things that we do. Thank you to amazing bands like Recreant, Flying Snakes, Crow’s Foot, I’m An Intestine, Rotting Palms, Criminal Culture, Ikaruga (Trevor), Land Bridge, and to every other band in the Bay Area that makes this fun.

Thank you to the men, womyn, and children of Immokalee, Florida that are beaten and taken advantage of everyday. We try our hardest to educate and change the deplorable conditions in which you work and live. Thank you for the strength and courage that you display.

Thank you Food Not Bombs, whose members have seen much turmoil in the past few months. Members that are dear to us, Thomas Frain, Nicholas Emery, Alex Nadeau, Megan Svec, Jimmy Dunson, and the brothers and sisters that we have not yet met, thank you for standing for the rights of those who can not fend for themselves.

Through propaganda of all nature and threats from those with the “higher authority”, we have been pitted against one another, and we will no longer tolerate this. We will shed blood, sweat and tears for those who need it. We stand for equality and freedom for all and we try to inspire through our music and actions, people from all walks of life to take a look around them and fight for changes that are so desperately needed.
