Eat Your Young

House of stone
Grief of greed
Pentameccagon
Feed my need
All for one
None for all
All in vein
Silent fall

Strip down, man up
Suck in, bite hard
Hold in, don't cry
Yes sir!
Shut your mouth and eat your young

When I was thirteen years old
My father gave me a gun
My father gave me his knife
My father told me to run
Into a starlit valley
To find the place of their sleep
And bring back their severed heads
And bring back their severed feet
My father trained me to kill
And beat me hard to be strong
And hid that I was born with
The sex of a boy and a girl
When I turned sixteen years old
I uttered nary a word
And was known as the mute prince
Who brought down swift death from above

Manifest destiny
First-born son
King supreme
Scars of strength, alpha seed
Dog-eat-dog,paternity
Cycle of suicide
God-hardened heart, beat your child
With the books of the dead
All is well

Take your place and eat your young
Eat your young
Take your place and eat your young
Eat your young
Take your place and eat your young
