Judges Of The Underworld

(album: Erebos - 2022)

Numbing of the pain with a drug induced psychosis
Schizophrenia. Misdiagnosis
Numbing of the pain with a drug induced psychosis
Who is to blame?
Raised by trauma, violence, poverty and abuse
Choked with moral complexity

Victimised. Oppressed. Criminalised
When society chooses to be selectively blind

Trapped in a cycle of a manic mind hypnosis
Schizophrenia. Misdiagnosis
Trapped in a cycle of a manic mind hypnosis
Who is to blame? The crimes contested

Guilty as charged

Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged
A childhood of abandonment and desolation
Adolescence filled with guns, institutionalisation
Who is to blame?

Guilty as charged

Are you the oppressor or the oppressed?

Victimised. Oppressed. Criminalised
Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged
Life histories are blurring the lines
Life histories are blurring the lines

Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged
Are you the oppressor or the oppressed?

Which side are you on?
Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged
When the law becomes deception
Are you the oppressor or the oppressed?

Choose your side

How can imprisonment be a solution
If you're trapped in a cycle of systematic violence
