WOLNOŚĆ

lest you escape
chain your thoughts
with links
of honor and morality
I find freedom
in frantically breaking
the cage that
is called reality

NARKOTYKI

I don't want to think I don't want to be vulnerable
I'm still awake I want as much as possible
I want to keep time
the present to myself
I'm already tired
I need a plot to knock myself out
my brain needs stimulation
you can fuck everything
and create your own world
you can lock yourself in 
and escape by closing your eyes
you can try to stop time
and escape the the future
to find yourself in the same place
but set back a few plots
the euphoria is gone and the colorful
are now only the rags you dress in 
you shake and tremble
from fear and hunger
you reach out begging
just one inch
the illusion of shelter
the stop of nightmares
your brain has frozen like in jelly
the time is coming for your end
drugs kill?
you are killing yourself

PUNX

disagreement with reality
rebellion against its mechanisms
strength individualism
independence of thought
punk is destruction destruction of patterns
rules and forms in thought and action
it is the removal of boundaries between people
our no future is a rejection
of the perspectiveless "normal life"
so-called "normal work"
"normal society"
is to say NO to the state the church
social opinion and fascism
don't be just a mere consumer
sex and money really aren't everything
turn your beliefs into action
and you turn your beliefs into action
and rebel against every fashion
against those who tell you how to act
live your own way according to your own reason
reject schemes and false morality
believe in the power of your reason

CYWILIZACJA

tired washed out of feelings
baffled lepers
hollow organisms
destroyed by disease
conventionally called civilization
civilization
industry that destroys
tears the body
poisoned hands
bloody thoughts
shorter and shorter
flashes of consciousness
longer and longer lethargy
producing to live
producing in order to destroy
eliminating colors
gray instead of warmth
steel and concrete
instead of green
slowly destroying
the universe of one's body
cutting with a blunt
industrial knife
one's hands and feet
brain vasectomy
obediently opening
cracked lips
and the steel hand of civilization
slowly ripping out our hearts

JESTEM SILNY

I think and act
I don't try to be strong I am strong
because I have one hundred percent faith in myself
I know who I am I know where I'm going
I don't swallow the crap food of the general public
I destroy discouragement I destroy stagnation
I don't doubt myself I'm not afraid of aggression
it's easier to believe in anything
it's easier to be weak
you follow the line drawn for you
you say - "it doesn't concern me"
you go and live a hypocritical life forever
you believe your parents the school of television
it's strength not passive resistance
they will smash the hordes of fascist motherfuckers
it's our desperation that makes
our enemies have to reckon with us

SKOWYT

moloch - moloch
moloch - specter of moloch
moloch - without feelings
moloch - mind
moloch - cruel judge of man
moloch - incomprehensible prison
moloch - with crossed tibias
moloch - heartless detention and congress of grief
moloch - the mighty boulder of war
moloch - the governments behind which the mob rages
moloch - whose mind is pure machinery
moloch - whose blood is streams of coins
moloch - whose fingers are dozens of armies
moloch - the którego pierś to ludożerne dynamo
moloch - którego ucho to dymiący grób
moloch - którego oczy są tysiącami ślepych okien
moloch - którego fabryki śnią i rechocą we mgle
moloch - którego kominy i anteny są koronami miast
moloch - whose love is the immensity of kerosene and stone
moloch - whose soul is electricity and banks
what a sphinx of cement and aluminum
shattered their skulls
devoured their brains and imagination

NIE ZABIJAJ

we have been taught in school and at home
on t.v. and in newspapers to accept violence
rape and killing as natural
components of life which they are not
don't kill and die for god honor and fatherland
being a pacifist won't stop war
but not being part of a war
you are taking the only possible step
step to live in a normal world
fuck your nationality
throw off the shackles of fatherland patriotism shackles
trample the flag spit on the eagle
destroy the symbols go beyond
I don't stand when I listen to the anthem
honor can be sold and bought
I will not kill in the name of god
shove that banner of yours up your ass
by opposing the tradition of violence
you stand outside of it and no longer support it 
in other words you are doing something for peace
even if you think
nothing is changing

WIERSZYK

listen until you are deaf
stare until you are blind
breathe until you are breathless in your chest
think until you are annihilated
bleed into the sun
love until you are disgusted

TV

like butchering animals from the skin
television strips us of our feelings
a flurry of information makes it difficult to understand
a flurry of information makes it difficult to understand
an illusion of life a murder of feelings
indifference
like butchering animals from the skin
television strips us of our feelings
stretched out in an armchair you look indifferently
at the killing of people at starved children
raped women you chew on crisps
with the remote control you change the channel is about to be a horror film

MOJE ŻYCIE

no one has the right
to eat up my life
with duties to the state
and similar nonsense
no man has the right to decide for me
even if he thinks
it will be better for me

KIEDY

when they take you into the army
they will sharpen your hair
they will change your clothes and you will stand in line
the same as everyone else
stifled and leveled and you will be given an order
and you don't have to obey it 
but the subsequent consequences of insubordination
will make you have no alternative
don't be afraid they know
how to make you obey
they will teach you to lose
they will destroy your self-confidence
and your individuality
they will teach you that you are weak
you think that if you leave
everything will change
you will retaliate and you are free
but the seed of training
is sown in you
to live independently you will no longer be able to 
fuck the army fight for your ego
fight for the peace of your conscience

PARANOJA

don't you see the hypocrisy on the faces of politicians
when they babble about the common interest
in a mad race for profits
big corporations are killing nature
do you see yourself in a society
sick with an excess of lack of feelings
among people who in banks called churches
exchange your fear for paranoia
no more entrusting your life
don't let the clergy decide for you anymore
the government lies lies too
they act in their own interest
turn your pain and fear into hatred
don't exchange reason for paranoia

NIENAWIŚĆ

trapped in the cells of unconsciousness
find freedom in super-reality
tear false faces to the blood
turn pain fear suffering into hatred

ŚWIADOMOŚĆ

you look at the world through the eyes of institutions
that have kneaded your mind since childhood
you perceive reality in one dimension
the dimension that has been imposed on you
but all is not yet lost
as long as there is a chance that you will realize
what they are doing to you
what they have already done to you
you blindly follow the path of cognition
you perceive phenomena according to established rules
you think you think only you think
they think for you they think in your head
somewhere on the side of the road of cognition
there is room for your harmless rebellion
don't go down this road break the sheep's urge
open your eyes understand that this is not the way
I am looking from a different point of reference
stand with me and look through my eyes
you will experience a powerful sense of freedom
the foundation of which is the consciousness of enslavement
consciousness
