The cities alive and its burning tonight
And there ain't nothing that I've seen it like
Forget about your social stance
When nothing can stop you from meeting demands
Taking your freedom in the grip of your hands
Time for us to show em where we stand
We can
Create our own world
Free from this hate
Save ourselves from this mess
I can't wait, I can't wait
For whats next
I see a world where we decide
(We decide, no more lies)
And we can build something that's worthy of pride
(Worthy of pride, no more divide)
Create our own world
Free from this hate
See the fucker burning
I can't wait, I can't wait
For whats next
Powerful in every way, this DC hardcore group's first full-length is the siren song to having no home as a person of color—in punk, in society, in America. It could not have arrived at a more appropriate time. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jul 15, 2016
Heady hardcore punk from Black Aubergine has groove, heft, and an experimental edge percolating behind the blown-out surface. Bandcamp New & Notable May 23, 2023
