Sometimes you have to take the initiative
Sometimes your whole family dies of cholera
Sometimes you have to make your own story
Sometimes you have to shoot the storyteller in the neck.

Sometimes you have to take back the country
Sometimes you have to kill everyone,
Everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone!
