Breed Spread Abandon Hope Flock to your leader, the conquest of two steps backwards Repel the truth, backtrack like spineless cowards Money can’t buy back when you’re Hanging from the rafter Hoard and hoard until you’ve filled your pocket to its extent Riding on the backs of the less fortunate And paid off all the fucking pigs Drag them to the street Mob justice brings us peace Stab until your wrist gives out No one mourns, no ones gives a shit Stay alive, this isn’t the final act I will not stop this fight Until they’re all fucking dead United we stand United they fall There will be no peace Until the tyrants fall Fuck em all, kill em all Take back what they stole Privileged scum always playing the victim They have raped and stripped our rights I will always fight this good fight until I’m in a 6 feet fucking hole Drag them to the fucking streets Mob justice brings us peace Blue lives have never mattered I answer to no god, and no fucking pig Drag them to the streets Mob justice brings us peace Drag them to the streets Mob justice brings us peace Line em up Gun em down Let their blood Soak the soil We all call To false leaders United we stand Until they fall There will be no peace Until the tyrants fall Until they fucking fall

Set it off Everything is so desolate and bleak Forced to sell our souls to the corporate machine I’m fucking sick of the weight of the world on my shoulders These fucks take and take as the hungry sleep on the street Can’t increase the minimum wage That would mean they would lose a second of sleep You mother fuckers Sites set on violence and bringing lives to an end Burn the towers, let them jump to the pavement They all scatter like rats I’m ready for the hunt My blade is extended No coming back, no tomorrow You fucking pussy We all bleed the same fucking blood and I’d love to be covered in yours No fuck way out of this I’ll go in a hail of gunfire Before I let any of you win I’ll suffer in hell Before I let it go alive So hell is where I’ll reside You think you know what hell is You think you know what hell is You think you know what hell is You don’t know fucking anything

If you’re willing to die over red lace Docs Then you’re a fucking lost cause There is no Norse god to save you from the shotgun blast to the jaw You infest the police so it’s always fuck the law Hide in the night to creep and crawl White hoods and cloaks for anonymity Stab wounds in the close proximity Piss on your body to leave you with no fucking dignity I’ll take my mask off, I want you to see my face This last stab goes out to the supposed master race Watch them swing Watch them swing Watch them swing Swing away Sweet dreams mother fucker Get out of our hood There’s no room for nazi pussies Or the KKK I know it feels like there’s no hope left We’ll drive these snakes Back to fucking hell I know it feels like there’s no hope left I’ll bury each one Until my final breath Wake the fuck up leave the couch Ya clock is running late on ya unjust hate Choose your cart but please choose smart A boot could be your fate just a climate of hate Cali to Chicago is the way I choose Home has got the feelings and the politics too Chitown be my lane when I hop my train It’s tagged on the walls Chitown plays no games Here I am as a lion proven loyal to mine Got no patience no cryin no room for racists Protect the other cuz the statement I make Sets the bar for our brothers So when we came from corrupted youth It was the roots that told the truth The way we talk and walk the walk Sorts out the bullshit an anti racist truth Get the fuck out You scum of the Earth Get the fuck out You scum of the Earth I’ll drain all of your blood For my family I ain’t going down like this You will fucking pay For your sins

Burdened 03:34
There is nothing you should be proud of They steal it from the poor And give it back to the rich They tax us to death Fuck you, you son of a bitch I’m sick of this ideology That the upper elite can steal with no consequences No justice for the 401k driven Institutions buying political advances for their own gain I don’t want them to serve two months and get off free I want them publicly shot dead in the streets There will be no peace When the lower class can’t sleep Move Burn the banks Kill your local politicians Don’t ever stop Don’t ever give in Their agenda is keeping you where you are Load another clip Shoot another round All their homes are public knowledge Buy your ammunition in bulk Load the fucking chamber Take the violence to them We outnumber them 10 to 1 Climb the fences, ski masks on It’s time to kill these mother fuckers The revolution begins When there is none of them left We will never give in Til we all turn dead and grey Til there is nothing left

Blast the skin off his useless face What a disgrace, to the human race I don’t wanna live to see the day That we all become the prey Don’t pull out your camera Pull out a fucking 38 Fuck that traitor's badge Aim it at their fucking teeth It’s our time to stand up Oppress the oppressors It’s not time to be peaceful It’s time to be the aggressors It’s time to be the aggressors Egotistical big headed pieces of shit You don’t deserve to be turned back to soil Your whole authority is a social myth And I dream of seeing the gun recoil Wearing a badge is just a target I want to send home a folded flag To your wife and kids You are nobody’s hero You are nobody’s hero You fucking pig

I’m on a fucking mission Of total exile Exterminating the vermin Wearing suits of traitors All the shells are hollow point To go through their vest This isn’t my mantra This is my manifesto Load the duffel bags Take to the streets Their foot on our necks Means two in the face Mother fucker Yo what the fuck is up its Hostages throwin rounds It’s that 187 on a mother fucking cop I'll call it in on your own walkie Englewood 1837 drop that shit Fuck every law enforcer It's just us motherfucker In a squad car with your "brother" Good, now die with each other Stained hands Bloodshed Poke holes through your badge And one in your partner's head You made an oath to fucking die pig Every time you suit up You make it clear who the target is So whats the real fucking problem Police my fucking block No justice for us No justice for a fucking cop Drive by at the midnight vigil Drive by at the midnight vigil Make sure they have a closed casket funeral No justice No peace so I tolt my heat No justice No peace so nobody eats No justice No peace there will be no rest No life I keep the pressure on a cop's neck Pressure Keep the pressure on a cop's neck

Unbreakable 04:23
You think this time is different Let’s see those fists fucking move Fuck the police, Fuck ICE, stay vigilant And stand united against the oppressive scum of the world Welcome to Chicago mother fucker Where’s your iron at? Eat the media For profiting off of tragedy and lies Eat the rich Who kill the small to thrive Eat the lobbyist For being bought from the rich Give em a mile, hang them all from an inch It’s all their propaganda to sell us their fucking agenda Pull the fucking trigger Take to the office and leave this shit hole in a fire fight I don’t plan on living through the night I’ll kill as many as I can before I take my fucking life This democracy is a fucking fraud Destroy and rebuild until we get it right The broken record will pale until the morning sun Play dirty until we all won More people listen while under the gun Make the shells fly for a better tomorrow When there is none of them left leaves us no sorrow For the people For the people You think we’ll take this lying down You don’t have this figured out Our revenge will be the laughter of our fucking children Kill to survive You’re not taking me alive I’ll do all I can to kill these men I don’t have anything left I don’t have anything left In this world of shit

about

Hostages are a beatdown hardcore band from Chicago, IL.
Climate of Hate is their second full length album.

"There is no space for discourse and discussion here. This is an unrelenting slab of this-is-how-it-fucking-is beatdown hardcore. All in all, Climate of Hate is the reminder to the capitalists, to the racists, to the fascists, that have benefitted from the white supremacy of capitalism for hundreds of years that, be grateful the movement is asking for reparations. Climate of Hate hits like a bag of bricks to the face of the cops, the Nazis, the racists and fascists they call out throughout the record. Climate of Hate is what it looks like when they start thinking about revenge." -Steve O, Punk News
