Lyrics and Music written in December of 2011
Recorded at Earth Capitol in Los Angeles, California, December 2011

lyrics

Lyrics:
"Eat. Sleep. Copulate.
Exalt my pride, feed my hate
To smart to love, to strong to think
My ego is real food and drink
My perceived strength it does suffice
In the modern age of paradise."

Thoughts:
This song is not to be taken literally (hence the quotation marks)
This intended to incapsulate the mantra of the "glorious", "modern" "humanist" age. The mantra of human “progress”, the mantra of human “reason”, the mantra of genocide, eugenics, air pollution, cancer, misandry, misogyny, racism and deforestation, the mantra of a dying world. This is the mantra of all things anti-human and those who have forfeited their rational minds so that they might be truer servants to their appetites. This is not the mantra of a man; this is the mantra of an animal.
