Empty Fist from Not Alone by Raw Nerves

Don’t need the politics
Violence and getting fucked up
For you this isn’t community
In the pit you are king
You do it for the aggression
Don’t need the politics
Message reduced to an empty fist
Violence and fucking shit up
For you it’s just a social scene
And the pit is your ring
You do it for…
The spectacle of chaos and blood
Nihilism and drugs
Running wild in the streets
Meaning diminished to hyperbole
With that “x” on your hand
You think you’re part of a clan
“Unity” as you break bones
Never killed that jock in your head
Hardcore ain’t a fight club
And straight edge ain’t a call to arms
Don’t need the politics
Message reduced to an empty fist
Violence and getting fucked up
For you this isn’t community
It’s just another social scene
And in the pit you are king
You do it for the aggression
