Rather than facing a slow, agonizing death at the hand of oppression, some in history have chosen 'Death by Revolution' instead. Either they are successful, or they die a quicker death--one that served a purpose and made their lives worth living.

Former front man and lyricist for the music festival playing group I=nterlaken, Cooper Rasyon declared his independence from the group on July 4th, 2008. As a solo artist, Cooper is able to bring together various groups of musicians on different projects to accomplish the common goal of creating something special. No longer constricted by what the other band members were willing and able to do, Cooper has been able to create a sound more suited to his sonorous voice punctuated by powerfully poetic lyrics that resonate with the rhythms of the soul.

Story behind the song
As the economy worsens, some of us are facing very difficult times. In these times, even educated people with advanced degrees are unemployed, even homeless. No matter if you situation is as dire as some, we all face times when to continue on our path seems hopeless. It sometimes takes a drastic action to jar us from our complacency...to save our lives even at the risk or losing it all.
Lyrics
smoke chars the lungs. paper and ink burning for heat. what good is a degree when u can't even buy enough to eat? death by revolution death by revolution death by revolution death by revolution oppression strides at a snail's slide. parietal lobes turn mechanical. as you look the other way, the frog begins to boil. death by revolution death by revolution death by revolution death by revolution the gun in my hand feels so surreal. sleepwalking through life, how did we get here get here get here? death by revolution death by revolution death by revolution death by revolution
