downset - ritual lyrics
do you know what it is like to run?
do you know what it is like to live in fear?
do you know what it is like to run?
do you know what it is like to live in fear?
’cause she knows what it’s like to run
she knows what it’s like to live in fear
because she knows what it’s like to run
rape ritual
how can i stand in silence while you are raping my sister?
ritual
i said i’ll throw you in the wind because i ain’t with that
say what have we done to mother, sister, daughter, lover?
beat them down to submission, into that corner of constant fear
humanity reduced to a s-xual commodity, objectification
pretty faces, molded imagery
d-mn they drop the dirty mack demands
she’s more than booty to me, byp-ss her s-xuality
tradition, your s-xism is what you want me to learn, surrender
gender hatred, fade it to kill it, comp-ssion returns
one out of three and they say my sisters are free
incarcerated by hatred, propagated by sodomy
continual ritual victimizing my sister
physical rape is psychological murder
ritual
how can i stand in silence while you are raping my sister?
ritual
i said i’ll throw you in the wind because i ain’t with that
ritual
how can i stand in silence while you are tearing?
rape ritual
jenny, ho, sl-t, trick, b-tch, buddy
terms that burn in our popular brutality
that media camera’s at you, trying to show you what’s up
illusion magazine fantasy got you feinding to bust a nut
body ident-ty suffocates in her nudity, she’s dying inside
fashions asking won’t let her be, strip her to flesh
for apathetic male ego, you bet the set ain’t down with your wak
rape ritual
we got to meet this hate with love
we got to meet this hatred with love
why do we fall for it, fuel it
s-xual violence equality?
please, so-called alternative movement
statistics never confess her wounded aloneness
internal inferno locked away calm diminishment
sharon stone, you ain’t all of that, madonna, you ain’t all of that
sell you shallow shock value charade is wak
sister, put a fist in what’s expected of you
deny, defy, reject false definition of you too
there’s no excuse for this brutality or this lack of humanity
rape ritual
how can i stand in silence while you are raping my sister?
ritual
i said i’ll throw you in the wind because i ain’t with that
ritual
how can i stand in silence while you are tearing?
rape ritual
i say that i’ll throw you into the wind
say that i throw you [incomprehensible]
i say your traditions mean nothing to me
