Broke Thru



Sequences..
Pretenses...
Existence...
Coincidence?
At an early age of history still
Got another phase ahead of us still
100 billion graves but this is the one to save
So fill in the blanks and all that empty space
Stakes are raised so it's back to the game
back to the cages back to the same
Brain racket racking
what's the matter they keep asking
all I'm hearing is chatter and laughter and blabber and babble
I got the ladder and the next step
A whole separate chapter
An american b*st*rd broke through the plaster
begged for answers got the truth
what about you?
 we broke on through already
hey what about you we broke on through already
