Everything’s worse than it fucking seems
On the shit-stained side of history
Garbage in equals garbage out
A snap of the fingers and you foam at the mouth
You all got fooled ‘cause you all don’t think
Your attitude sucks and your ideas stink
Everything you believe is a crock of shit
And I’m fucking sick of it
There’s too many assholes in this country today
And I wish every single one would stay the fuck out of my way
So slow to change but so quick to act
A whole generation born with their head up their ass
One in a sea of nameless faces is all they want me to be
I can’t wait ‘til I get to see
You piss your pants in terror
Yeah I heard all the shit you said
It’s more regurgitated garbage from a book you never read
Every thought tows the party line
This is perfectly normal, everything is fine
So fucking pointless I just have to laugh
How fucking do you think this shit’s gonna last?
I watched it stop, I watched it start
Now I watch it all fall apart
There’s too many assholes in this country today
And I wish every single one would stay the fuck out of my way
So slow to change but so quick to act
A whole generation born with their head up their ass
One in a sea of nameless faces is all they want me to be
I can’t wait ‘til I get to see
You blow each other’s heads off

Saw Haram at Oklahoma's Everything Is Not OK III festival, and have never seen a show get more fucking insane. Haram were killing it, people were literally flying all over the place, including the vocalist. But it's more than that. Haram stands out as one of the most culturally relevant and important bands in the states, challenging issues of cultural and social oppression for all marginalized peoples. Vocalist Nader also sings in Arabic and stands full force against the racism and religious phobia faced by middle eastern americans, issues that have relentlessly plagued our country and people, even before 9/11. I highly recommend reading his interviews, I challenge all to join and support them in this effort. I hope I've done an at least passable job representing them here. I also consider myself lucky to have seen them. Ariele Betterton
