about

I think this is pretty self-explanatory. Fuck rascism, fuck sexism and homophobia, fuck chauvinism, fuck right-wing movements and fuck religious indoctrination. I can and will not tolerate any of this. Especially not in a surrounding that is labelling itself as "left-wing" or "punk".

lyrics

Out of empty pockets and spirited hearts / a movement was born / that has now fallen apart. / Punk always was a transfiguration / of problems that occur to every generation. / Still I believe that there is something to say / instead of living life silent and blind through the day. / It’s not a problem that the scene has changed. / It’s a problem that its values became disengaged. / And with a tear in my eyes and a fist in the sky / I still have the will to change. / Bring back the spirit / bring back the meaning. / We shouldn’t let it go more astray. / I don’t know when the breakup began / but I can say that someone succeeded with his plan. / When we tolerate discrimination / at punk rock venues / we’re near to disintegration. / Fuck their speeches. / Fuck their lies. / I will never tolerate their white fucking pride. / And when I’m just on it / let me hear you say / “No gods, no masters” / we won’t take it any other way. //
