“We’re at a point where political fatigue has set in and become an issue for most people who live in our country no matter what side of the coin they land on. In an election year that feeling is going to start elevating to new heights as we prepare for what’s next in America. The lyrics and energy of the song showcase that sentiment so I wanted to create something visually that almost feels like a trailer for what we are about to experience. I also wanted to address PTSD for people who have serviced in the military and how the increased political landscape affects their mental health which often goes unnoticed. I clearly wanted to take it as far as I could with this example.” -Jim Louvau

“Toxic” lyrics:
Sanity implies
That there’s intelligence
All I ever find
Is pure incompetence
Laws are washed away
Society will bleed
Scorned and left to die
And now the mutant’s feed
Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinions
On other people’s lives
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
To your face they lie
Unleash and overthrow
Legal rights denied
And fall like dominoes
Hide behind the cloak
To change your way of life
Liberty revoked
A target for all time
Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people’s lives
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
Lead-Demmel
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
Biased policy
Aborting history
Exploding at the chance
With rabid arrogance
Lead-King
Words now weaponized
With violence criticize
Ignore the majority
And force feed insanity
Lead-King
Unleash hatred’s wrath
And social aftermath
You penance will be do
It’s time for my own fucking coup
Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people’s lives
Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites
