Fugazi’s “The Kill” is about the use of military and militarized police in the United States, at home and abroad, and a commentary on its racialized nature, written for their 2001 album The Argument, the political content of which MacKaye described as an “anti-war manifesto”.
Genius

Un soldato non ha bisogno di essere un cittadino, deve solo sentirsi bene nell'uniforme, non pensare ed ottenere una laurea in annientamento.
Born into race and nation
Accept family and obligation
I'm not a citizen, I'm not a citizen

Embrace tradition and occupation
Cull memory for assimilation
Secure for future generations
Secure for future generations
I'm not a citizen, I'm not a citizen
I'm not a citizen, I'm not a citizen

Laying in this cold field
Waiting for the call
Feeling right here in this uniform
I think I got them all

Academic or street education
Obtain degree in annihilation
I'm not a citizen, I'm not a citizen
I'm not a citizen, I'm not a citizen

Laying down in chambers
Waiting for the call
Seen your kind so many times
You got no chance at all
Laid out immobile
Hoping for that call
It's in my mouth, under my skin
Sodium pentathol
Sodium pentathol
Sodium pentathol
Sodium pentathol
