I was runnin´ down Lafayette
My bloody shirt soaked through She´s got me runnin´ I was beaten and confused On a New York City ruse She´s got me runnin´ My filthy hands and feet On a dirty city street She´s got me runnin´ Like a banshee no one cares With the heart of a beaten dog She´s got me runnin´ My wild Indian heart was poundin´ I was runnin´ so fast My wild Indian heart was poundin´ I was runnin´ so fast We got the drugs we got the drugs We got the drugs the drugs in here We got the drugs we got the drugs We got the drugs the drugs in here All the children lovin´ the camera Turn their face into the light She´s got me runnin´ Can you take the pace much faster Lickin´ honey from a knife She´s got me runnin´ My wild Indian heart was poundin´ I was runnin´ so fast My wild Indian heart was poundin´ I was runnin´ so fast Let the water out let it all out Yeah I´m drownin´ get me out of this place Let the water out let it all out While I´m drownin´ get me out of this place Let it out let it out let it out let it out Let the water out let it all out Yeah I´m drownin´ get me out of this hell We got the drugs we got the drugs We got the drugs the drugs in here We got the drugs we got the drugs We got the drugs the drugs in here We got the drugs we got the drugs We got the drugs the drugs in here We got the drugs we got the drugs We got the drugs the drugs in here Call it own it fucked up children 02.

Black hearts and devils in the night
Mean streets raised me up to fight I´m a lover but I been known quick to strike You think you know me Oh but you´re never right Don´t be deceived by the liars Caught in the jaws and the flame I´ve been consumed by the trials These wicked teeth that hold my name That hold my name that hold my name oh Pages burn I watch the words ignite My heart feels beyond this strife Look into the black jaws of the night Take back what I lost and I´ll give my heart to the heavens I´ll give my heart to the light yeah To the light hey hey yeah Don´t be deceived by the liars Caught in the jaws and the flame I´ve been consumed by the trials yeah eah These wicked teeth that hold my name That hold my name that hold my name 06. Amnesia
Save what you learn
Suspicion sure to return Say my language is rough All my senses are torn Feel my demons return It´s all comin´ back to me I was born of the underground Orphan of Altamont Sure no neanderthal No matter what they think Save what you learn suspicion returns Save what you learn Suspicion sure to return Say my legs are weak Sweat poured out of me Shock of the army lost my identity Her words brought it back to me No room on the ghats for free Became a hawk and flew Into the open blue Save what you learn suspicion returns Save what you learn Suspicion is sure soon to return Black to come temote control Against the world Against the tomb against it all Against it all oh oh oh oh oh 07.

This Night In The City Forever
All my friends are drunk
Innocence a flame will I see them again I dream of dreams to come An´ temples built with love a ronin not a slave These city lights of fame Call to me again like diamonds in the rain Where prophets tag their name Her rivers filled with shame Few faces stay the same Time will never end lords of truth ascend My scars I´ll show again My fireworks ignite ah spirit now takes flight And how the glory came I don´t mess around Throw your weapon to the ground My witches gather round They laugh but make no sound I´m runnin´ in the black light My skull in flame ooh ooh ooh in the night Pull out your knife pull out your knife We can make it right Black skull in flame power and the glory The glory and the power We can make it right |
