"I see all this potential, and I see squandering. Damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables—slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need. We’re the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War’s a spiritual war … our Great Depression is our lives. We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars. But we won’t. And we’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off."
"I rise like the sun sometimes, but then I fall
And like a black moon I rise when the night falls
And when the night falls, the mic calls to listen
And it’s the ultra-violet rays that keep me rising on my mission"
