    Verse 1

    Violence 
    is the 
    fruit of 

    unreached 
    understanding 

    That 
    flowers 
    from 
    the lips 
    of scoundrels 

    It 
    is a forest 
    so dense 

    and rooted 
    in our 
    past 

    It 
    tempts 
    us to 
    become 
    lost 
    in its 
    darkness 

    And 
    stinks 
    like the 
    piss 
    test you 

    were forced 
    to take 

    Just 
    before 
    you 
    were told 

    that you didn't 
    meet 

    The standards 
    of integrity 
    that 
    this or

    ganization 
    strives 
    to maintain 

    Verse 2
    Why 
    are there no 
    folk songs 

    about 
    ATM machines 

    That 
    produce 
    the likeness 
    of 

    the blazer 
    of the trail 
    of 
    tears 

    Issuing 
    overdraft 
    fees 
    from 

    beyond 
    the grave 

    Prison 
    TV 
    shows 
    in 
    an endless 
    queue 

    Con
    taining 
    the robust 

    nourishment 
    of a commissary 

    This 
    is why 
    we cannot 
    afford 

    to 
    close 
    an open 
    casket 

    You 
    protect 
    no 
    one by 

    obscuring 
    the mirror 

    That 
    reflects 
    our own 
    problematic 
    reality 

    Allow 
    me to 
    ponder 
    the role 
    I play 

    In this 
    pornographic 

    spectacle 
    of black 
    death 

    At 
    once 
    a solution 
    and 
    a problem 

    Verse 3
    cause, 
    an 
    effect, 
    a rejoice, 
    a regret 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    A promise 
    a pact 
    that the 

    world 
    never 
    kept 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    Verse 4
    cause, 
    an effect, 
    a rejoice, 
    a regret 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    promise 
    pact 
    that the 

    world 
    never 
    kept 

    Verse 5
    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 


    Violence 
    is daily life 

    Violence 
    happens 
    every day 

    It's 
    hard 
    to 
    get 
    used 
    to getting 

    used 
    to violence 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 6
    Savage 
    is my 
    name 
    because Savage 

    is how 
    I feel 

    When the radio 
    wakes 
    me up with 

    the words 
    "suspected 
    gunman" 

    My 
    name 
    is a 
    warning 
    for the 
    acts 

    you are about 
    to 
    witness 

    Which contain 
    images 
    that 

    some viewers 
    may find 
    disturbing 

    My 
    name 
    belongs 
    to us 
    all 

    So 
    if they ask 
    for yours 
    give them 
    mine 

    My 
    name is 
    a threat 

    Verse 7
    Riot 
    is an 
    unfinished 
    grave 
    that 
    was dug 

    to 
    de
    posit 
    undepleted anger 

    Like 
    barrels 
    of uranium 
    leaking 

    into 
    something 
    sacred 

    It 
    is 
    a word 
    to 
    use 
    to 

    delegitimize your 
    unrest 

    And 
    to make 
    your resistance 

    Verse 8
    into 
    an 
    overreaction 

    The pink 
    tube 
    of paint 
    called flesh 

    Used 
    in portraits 
    of 
    chairmen 

    of 
    boards 
    and 

    Men 
    who clean 
    up street
    s named 

    after those 
    who 
    fought 

    For 
    erasing 
    the 
    lives 
    they now 

    claim 
    to 
    protect 

    What is 
    an up and 
    coming neighbor

    hood and 
    where is 
    it coming 
    from? 

    Verse 9
    cause, 
    an effect, 
    a rejoice, 
    a regret 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    promise 
    a pact 
    that the 

    world 
    never 
    kept 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    Verse 10
    cause, 
    an 
    effect, 
    a rejoice, 
    a regret 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    promise 
    a pact 
    that the 

    world 
    never 
    kept 

    Violence 
    is daily 
    life 

    Verse 11
    What's 
    wrong with 
    the air you 
    breathe? 

    The 
    water 
    you drink? 

    Vi
    olence 
    is so 
    omnipresent 

    So 
    ingrained 
    in your 
    daily reality 

    You forget 
    to 
    notice 
    it 
    happens 
    every
    day

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
