Lyrics

Dodger

Check the coordinates
Something's a mess in the orbit
Best get a hold of it
A routine check will make it known

Scanning international space
For a satellite that's out of place
Shouldn't be a red light shining on the face
Of this analyst, but the interface is all solid, and that's bad
Time for everybody to find a crash pad
Or bunker nobody would a thunk, but it's plain to see
Another unexplainable anomaly

If money's unavailable, inevitably anything depending on a stable
Internet is gonna crash (tear it down)
Debatable what happens after that, it doesn't matter
Really, all she gotta know is that it's bad

So she ring the alarm
Please be on guard
Though these things are often harmless
No need to be alarming, but please be warned
Easily this leads to carnage

People freak with no tech
Microchip in yo' neck
Won't connect
Evil things be offline
Again things will be fine

Probably, modify oddity, body a prodigy up
That's how it ought to be, dodgers be knocking the plugs
Fuckin' up all the advances when the chances
Of them making a dent are the damnest, understand, it's a

Dodger
Find them
End them

Virus, virus
Time is of the essence
When you find this
Virus, mine, it's
Obsolescence
You must kill that shit
Kill that shit
Kill that shit
Kill it

Human unedited, ended the technical betterment
For all the rest of them though
Upend excessive unethical detriments
What are they other than pests to control
Pests to control? Best get the trap
Group 'em together and dead 'em like that
You can loop in the general public, they love it
You justify suffering by snuffing a rat

Picking up a hot wire
Hear the clipping, you can tell he spitting hot fire
But see the difference, he is managing to hand 'em propaganda
Understand he do the damage of a Rottweiler

Bite down with a jaw on swole and mug on mean
Waking up your family with stuff unseen
E'rybody panicking because that dream
Showed them all the savagery of them rat things

And that shit gon' fuck up the order
Have 'em throwing fits when they stuck at border
Feeling like they deserve better than a police state
Shit, if you knew better, do better, bitch, don't hate

She thinks to herself
She run through the hall
She flipping the switch
She makin' the call
On the direct line to the president's head
But the president is already dead (what?)

Dodger
Find them
End them

Virus, virus
Time is of the essence
When you find this
Virus, mine, it's
Obsolescence
You must kill that shit
Kill that shit
Kill that shit
Kill it

Be the citizen you need to be if innocence is in your future
You are either in the net or you against the wall
Either a protector or rejecter and rejecters won't be tolerated
They'll be hunted down to help eject them all
Be the citizen you need to be if innocence is in your future
You are either in the net or you against the wall
Either a protector or rejecter and rejecters won't be tolerated
They'll be hunted down to help eject them all

Virus, virus
Time is of the essence
When you find this
Virus, mine, it's
Obsolescence
You must kill that shit
Kill that shit
Kill that shit
Kill it

Kill it
Kill it
Kill it
Kill it
Kill it
Kill it
Kill it

See how he run, see how he run
See how he never would pick up a gun
See how he jump like it was nothing on the Earth to hold him down
Gotta admit that look like fun, it look like fun
The fuck is fun when the war ain't done?
If the war ain't done and the war ain't won
And you swore to uphold all the pillars of the federated
Somethin', some, uh, um

The song they used to hum in school with rules and the reasons to do
All the things you do in the name of thang
What the fuck was shit they sang?
But this man elevates, and it makes it seem insane
Asinine even, assassinate him for what?
Justify treason to capture this feelin' has to be love

It's dust on the heart, gotta get the rust off
It's a muscle you must jumpstart
And it's been a minute, isn't it
A little bit bitter to be intimate with the enemy?
Anyway, it is better to cut
That'll make you a dodger too, true
But if that's really what you gotta do, you
Just admit it's a better ending to end up defending
The very enemy you meant to subdue
