Malignant Perfection

These Scars Won't Define Us

These Scars Won't Define Us (Tour Version) [feat. Unearth]

Amon Amarth "We Rule the Waves"

Another Dimension

Unbreakable - Lorna shore

Text:
(Verse 1)
You cheered for tax cuts, big and bold,
But your logic’s ice where empathy’s cold.
They said it’s for families, a middle-class cheer—
But it’s billionaires laughing while your voice disappears.
Medicaid’s crumbling, ACA's taking hits,
Snatching care from fragile lives bit by bit.
The rich get richer, while the rest are stripped—
What’s a promise when so many get skipped?

(Pre-Chorus)
You call it freedom, I call it theft,
Taking lifelines—from people left bereft.

(Chorus)
No coverage, no conscience, doesn’t anyone see?
Your “beautiful bill” writes history’s mockery.
Millions lose their health—yet it’s never enough,
No coverage, no conscience, that’s realpolitik’s bluff.

(Solo)

(Verse 2)
12 million kicked off Medicaid’s floor —
Doctors turned away, hope’s at the door. 
CBO’s numbers say it slows no tempo,
17 million lose coverage—watch that divide grow. 
While hospitals choke on unpaid bills,
Families crushed under care’s cold mills.

(Pre-Chorus)
They say "We’re saving budgets, fighting waste,"
But there’s no price when this move kills grace.

(Chorus)
No coverage, no conscience, stories don’t lie,
Real people scream in the night while the rest walk by.
A future in tatters—but your coffers rise,
No coverage, no conscience—see through their disguise.

(solo)

(Bridge)
The “Big Beautiful Bill” rewrites our fate—
But the pen’s in one hand; the real cost’s the plate. 
While they claim mercy and fairness reign,
They slash safety nets—and feel no shame.

(Final Chorus)
No coverage, no conscience, this feast leaves us stripped,
They feast at our table while our lifelines get clipped.
12 million gone, 17 million more—this lie’s not benign,
No coverage, no conscience—when will justice align?

(Outro – Spoken, resigned)
You built it for the rich, with "freedom" divine—
But the rest? We just see headlines… while our rights decline.

No Coverage, No Conscience

This is not a song. It's a breakdown. Enjoy the sound of decay.
Thank you for listening.

I'm so depressed today
I don't know what to say
In this song
It's not like I can say
"Hey voices, go away"

Because they won't fucking listen

They won't fucking listen
They won't fucking listen
They won't
No, they won't
They won't fucking listen
Because they don't care

I'm so fucking depressed
So now I think it's best
To give up

I give up on giving a fuck

So I don't give a fuck
No, I don't give a fuck
I don't
No, I don't
Oh, I don't give a fuck
Because I give up

I'm so depressed (Today!)
I don't know what to say (In this song!)
It's not like I can say, "Hey voices, (Go away!)"
Because they won't fucking listen
I'm so fucking (Depressed!), that's why I think it's best
To give up

Now I don't give a fuck (They won't fucking listen)
Yeah, I don't give a fuck (They won't fucking listen)
I don't, no, I don't (They won't, no, they won't)
They won't
They won't fucking listen, and I don't give a fuck

I’ve complained in the past about modern music needing a jolt of innovation without coming off as pretentious. Phidippus seems to epitomize the desire to make great music while refusing to keep to one specific formula, making his trajectory as an artist fascinating to watch. I find Phidippus to be an immensely underappreciated musician who just needs one big hit to make his name reverberate throughout the densely packed world of electronica, and I hope that that day comes sooner rather than later.
