Housecat - VIOLENCE Lyrics

Detach from like, dislike, from happy, sad
From good, bad, peaceful and evil
Detach from label, from words
From pleasure and pain and observe the essence with yourself

Imposition is violence
Comparison is violence
Contradiction is violence
Expectation is violence

Judgement is violence
Self indulgence is violence
Pride is violent
I am violent

I compose low blows for god knows when
My mindset is criminal, insecure, subliminal again
I talk in circles cuz I wanna be intelligent
Do I put out these songs just to hear how good I am

Violence
Stop that shit I just need silence
Violence
I can't ever recognize the signs when

I get stuck trying to define who I am
Then rationalize, criticize and beg for
Peace of mind

It's just violence
Composition, looking at the science
Destroy a higher power through comparison
Non righteous

Don't fight it because you hate it
Don't love it because you made it
Don't romanticize or justify it
Just because you create it

Imposition is violence
Comparison is violence
Contradiction is violence
Expectation is violence

Judgement is violence
Self indulgence is violence
Pride is violent
I am violent

Whenever I tell you to change
That's violence
Whenever I look for someone to blame
That's violence

Whenever I expected all the same
That's violence
When I was blaming you for lack of strength
That's violence

If I was to hurt somebody
That would be violence
But my imposition and contradiction
Is similar-minded

Whenever I chose me instead of kindness
That was violence
The very things I'm holding myself to
Is just violence

It was violence
It's all violence
I'm paralyzed, can't close my eye lids

How much pain can I inflict on myself
And how indeed should I write it
How much pain have I caused in my life
To other people

It's hard to see purity clearly when
I feel like pure evil

Hypocritical, contradiction
Confliction and imposition
Subordination and selfishness
The Narcissistic condition

I lack everything I read and see and preach
I cannot change the world through speech
I'm not a politician, leader, therapist
Because I fear it

I expect to change the world
And that's violence
Imposition on myself
Is near sightedness

Only way to void it is to
Transcend the self and let it be
Take the violence in with everything
And feel singularity

Imposition is violence
Comparison is violence
Contradiction is violence
Expectation is violence

Judgement is violence
Self indulgence is violence
Pride is violent
I am violent
