Conquerers write the book for the conquered
History now becomes his story No history is a man without country No past means no identity Never will I turn the other cheek If every dog has its day I deserve a week What comes around and you know the rest And when it comes I'll be there I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired Do I love to hate from all the years of soul decay I close my eyes but I never sleep Thoughts of pain that break my peace I taste the rage in every tear The hate man makes I fear You write the rules You keep the score When I master the game You erase the board No history, is a man without country No past, means no identity Never will I turn the other cheek If every dog has its day I deserve a week What comes around and you know the rest And when it comes I'll be there I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired Do I love to hate from all the years of soul decay I close my eyes but I never sleep Thoughts of pain that break my peace I taste the rage in every tear The hate man makes I fear 02. Down The Drain
Desperate people make for desperate actions
When your view of life is from the bottom Take what you will and you kill if you have to In this world is there no justice There is no justice Day in and day out It's the same situation Come out ahead by trusting no one Heartbeat decisions from the end of a bullet Logic of the youth from a gun Is there a method to this madness? Is there an ending? There must be a way Half way down the drain The story ends the same Halfway down the drain Nothing will ever change A body waiting for a grave Land of the free so the shit that they feed Keep me down, I will fester Never be soft when you live a hard life Sorrow for others doesn't matter Is there a method to this madness? Is there an ending? There must be a way Half way down the drain The story ends the same Halfway down the drain Nothing will ever change A body waiting for a grave 03. My Friend Lonely
She'll watch to see when I'm alone
She'll come if I cry She'll come around when my hurt is to the bone She can make a man wanna die She knows when I swallow my pride That's when she embraces me And the pain in my heart is put there to remind That she's my friend lonely When the tears roll down my face When my heart's but an empty space She's my friend lonely When the silence of being alone Feels like a bittersweet welcome home That's my friend lonely She's there when others turn their backs You don't want her but she's around And like a home-sweet-home She's there when you're alone To make you feel lower when you're down She hears what others don't hear The things I think to myself She'll hold your hand When no one's there to understand That's my friend lonely 04. Me, Myself & I
Everytime you speak your insecurities shine
True signs of the weak or do they think I'm blind I hear the things you say when you verbally crucify It's you that drives each nail with every spineless lie It's always been me for me and only me Bitterness and I go way back Some find comfort in others' misery Heaven't you heard, never bite the hand that feeds I'll never turn my back on me Because I know that I'm on my side I'll be me until the end. Why can't they see That all I've got is me, myself, and I Me, myself and Me, myself and Me, myself and I Me, myself and Me, myself and Me, myself and I Hearing the laughter behind my back Often makes me wonder Try and raise above, but they're always pulling me down So called friends, trying to pull me under I'll never turn my back on me Because I know that I'm on my side I'll be me until the end. Why can't they see That all I've got is me, myself, and I Me, myself and Me, myself and Me, myself and I Me, myself and Me, myself and Me, myself and I No one to guide me 'cept the voices in my head My eyes the window to my soul a solemn view of emptiness Surrounded by parasites the kind that smile in your face Telling you the things that they think you want to hear When they only want to take your place Has life forsaken me Once blind, but now I see Innocence stripped from me The more you give, the more they feed Never let them take away The part of me that brings me peace I'll never believe I'll never trust I'll never believe 05. Drug Of The Masses
This is the way to overcome your problems
The more you use the better you feel Talk to the sky when you need an answer It relieves all pain and guilt Give all you have to put your mind at ease One of the millions that blindly follow Distorts your sight and makes you believe The words you recite control tomorrow Washing out reality but it's only momentarily These are the scriptures mankind has written Who's to say heaven's above the sky Should you believe because it's printed Who's to say that hell is beneath the earth Maybe we're already in it Time effects man's perspective Changes made to what's recorded Is this the book that we must follow It will change again tomorrow Drug of the Masses Drug of the Masses Rely on it for all your troubles, until it becomes a crutch Get on your knees and bow your head But does it really change much Recite a prayer when it gets rough When you're in over your head When you pray it's done in vain God helps those who help themselves Washing out reality but it's only momentarily These are the scriptures mankind has written Who's to say heaven's above the sky Should you believe because it's printed Who's to say that hell is beneath the earth Maybe we're already in it Time effects man's perspective Changes made to what's recorded Is this the book that we must follow It will change again tomorrow Drug of the Masses Drug of the Masses Is there an afterlife Did they return to tell you Live your life for the next world When tomorrow isn't really promised to you What about the time you still have The time is now to strive Because when you're dead and buried Is when you find out that they lied Who's to say heaven's above the sky Should you believe because it's printed Who's to say that hell is beneath the earth Maybe we're already in it Time effects man's perspective Changes made to what's recorded Is this the book that we must follow It will change again tomorrow Drug of the Masses Drug of the Masses Drug of the Masses 06. Comfortably Superficial
Eighty-six the weak shit
We break the backs of the so-called hip Button down your ego trip 'Cause you're tryin' too hard to stay in step Jock the tip of those who move and shake On a pedestal put those who reek of fake Never walk in another man's shoes You may not always win but you'll never lose One man One mind One voice is all I am I'll be myself, think for myself 'cause this is who I am Always one to follow no one Always one to never bend Set your clock by what's hot and what's not Just like your shallow friends Jock the tip of those who move and shake On a pedestal put those who reek of fake Never walk in another man's shoes You may not always win but you'll never lose One man One mind One voice is all I am I'll be myself, think for myself 'cause this is who I am Comfortably superficial Comfortably superficial Comfortably... 07. Killing Floor
A house of fire
Without the prayer for rain Slay 'em one and all That's the power of this game At dawn they killed To conquer and invade Man, woman and child Shipped away on death's crusade You'd die to live Forced to give Straight between the eyes You live to die Why does man inflict his pain Is it simply because he can Is it the majority that will always rule Or is it the color of the man This is the Killing Floor This is the Killing Floor Dead pray for the living 'Cause they're the ones in hell Lambs to the slaughter whisper not if you dare Death claim the innocent a huge price to pay Give them not power or all shall be repaid Take the young ones of this inferior race The future threatened by their hand Destroy the old ones the source of history Let them not take a stand Your body stamped with the mark of the beast Too weak from hunger too weak to cry Stricken by maggots that eat away your mind Mutilate your soul Then terminate by fire Terminate by fire You'd die to live Forced to give Straight between the eyes You live to die Why does man inflict his pain Is it simply because he can Is it the majority that will always rule Or is it the color of the man Guns to the left Guns to the right Barbed wire fences that say work or die Damn the sunrise, it makes a New Day Buried alive, right before your eyes You'd die to live Forced to give Straight between the eyes You live to die Why does man inflict his pain Is it simply because he can Is it the majority that will always rule Or is it the color of the man 08. Time Heals All
Time waits for no one and I've got none to waste
Like an old-time remedy slowly ease my pain And if the hour were my friend I'd undo all I've done If the minute hand could understand Just how far I've come When I die before I take my last breath Take me away 'cause only time Can cure me of my pain, my rage Should've would've could've done Am I just the only one Sometimes it feels this way Should've would've could've done And all the things I meant to say I meant to say Take from me this precious thing The thing that I need most Makes the old and dying cherish it like gold And if the hour hand were my friend I would have no fear What doesn't kill only makes you strong And your hindsight very clear When I die before I take my last breath Take me away 'cause only time Can cure me of my pain, my rage Should've would've could've done Am I just the only one Sometimes it feels this way Should've would've could've done And all the things I meant to say I meant to say Should've would've could've done Am I just the only one Sometimes it feels this way Should've would've could've done And all the things I meant to say I meant to say |
