1. Deathwish
If I could drive a stake right through your heart
I'd watch your light give way to dark
This soul assassin has once before graced a distant shore like a flashback of Vietnam
You've got a deathwish, that's why I penned this one
So, don't fuck with my fight or flight cause it's a flashback and it's Friday night.
Alrightl
The fact is I alone possess the pride of many
And I confess to having knowledge of big secrets which haunt my life.
Deep inside the mind, it's a flashback!
2. One Shot One Kill
I'm pensive and nervous
And I'm generally under duress
Seems you caught me at a bad time
Cause I'm just a fuckin' mess
No time to play the victim
No broader worries other than death because
A dark heart and a bright mind are the keys to success
Despite the broken dreams, in bits and pieces
I'm fairing well as far as I can tell
This time, I swear I'll give this all that I got
Sometimes in life that's all you get is one shot (one kill)
I take a sip of the good stuff and I really really try to relax
But my mind keeps slippin away as if perpetually under attack
No sleep for the wicked they say, or is it rest?
Same thing I suppose, but who gives a fuck anyway!
I'd rather off myself than merely exist
And I'll go quickly if you get my gist
This time I swear I'll give this all that I got
Sometimes in life that's all you get is one shot (one kill)
One shot, one kill
3. Southbound
I've been stone cold righteous right from the start of this
I felt lucky just to be a part of it, but times changed and so did most
So I went Southbound along the coast
Stayed East cause that's my home, that's where I shit and eat and where I'll die alone
The hard lessons learned right here were not for naught, now that the end is near
So stop, look, listen
What that's sound?
Well, it's your death knell ringin' from underground
It's a one fits all, and it's all for what?
We'll use the last nail to keep the coffin shut
True blue, yeah that's how we do, we stick our necks out and give you a point of view
But then you turn your back and disrespect and like a total stranger you disconnected us
We pay no mind and we forge ahead
And put the blinders on bur heads instead of us giving a fuck (so now you know we don't)
So don't expect us to care because we won't
Southbound!
4. Problem Reaction Solution
One for all, all for one
With self determination and righteous indignation
I gotta mend this broken dream
So I try to swim upstream while drowning in disbelief
No place for the self employed, where life was once enjoyed
The future null and void
Our system's so corrupt that it's wholly lost our trust
And in fact it's plain unjust
When I look back I can figure it out
That it's all been scripted
Now it's about time to break free from your fucking cage!
Tell me who your your god is and where is your rage?
It's a problem reaction solution scenario
In this environment, all of us fair game
And this happens to be open season with no reason given other than because
Of the fact that our numbers are rising and they're fearful
So they question, what have we become?
Destined for extinction with reckless fixation on colonization
So many have lost their way and all sense of humanity with no shame or humility
They rule with an iron fist
You will cease and desist or end up on their list
Cause these days you have no voice
To some it's all white noise
The choice: you have no choice
Despite the haze I can still see straight
I just took the hook out and I spit the bait
I wipe the bullshit from my eyes and get to reading in between the lies
5. The Final Revolution
History repeats itself to spite our ignorance
No hope for tomorrow and there is no second chance
Sign up, line up for the next big confrontation
It promises to be the best thing for this nation
Oh, the sacrifices mode in the name of Cod and son
On uninviting shores where wars were won
It's the final revolution, taking hold!
It's the final revolution, god save our souls!
Let's we forget that all gave some and some
Gave all to build this house of flesh and bones
Now watch it fall!
In peril, the world shakes and braces itself for the end
With no regard for life, we're doomed to fail again
So the war was waged within
On familiar soil and then unfriendly fire rained down on us
The game begins!
6. Can't Stop The Pain
The pain strikes back in so many ways that you can lose track of the hurt
For money ain't no object to us
Heads up, cause we're on alert!
We lead the way like a Judas goat down a path of complete destruction and hate and infamy
We are the voice of a generation and that's ok 'cause that's our way!
Yeah, that's ok, cause that's our way!
Yet the vulgar many try in vain, but the truth is, they can't stop the pain!
Sometimes I feel like a slave to all of this and like I've done my time
But then the power of unforeseen forces lifts me up to new heights
And like a sovereign nation, I defend my right to exist
So give your undivided attention, scream loud and raise your fist because today who can you trust?
What's good for them ain't good for us!
7. All Systems Fail
They say that Rome didn't fall in a day
Well, I wonder how long that it took for the bloody claws
Of an empire to suddenly get unhooked from the backs
Of those who relinquished their power to bring great change
All dissidents were extinguished, most of them at close range
So let it be known, let it be said that most of us yearn to be led
The axe falls slow as we fall in line
Horrific for many of us to live in the age of disgust where truth's suppressed, history redefined
In time, all systems fail, in time
Martyred by the idealists of our age, we're forced into war
Time and time again we pay the price, but they'll reassure us the sacrifices made weren't made in vain
I count the bald faced lies from those who seek to reign
It's just a matter of time
We'll turn the blood into wine and toast our leaders upon this day
To ring in a brand new regime who promise to bring great change
And other things which they'll make us believe.
8. Want Some?
Can you see the hate and pain in my eyes?
The way they seem to cut through you
The wrath of a billion tortured souls will come crashing
Down through this godforsaken place called earth
And leave a void so well deserved
In this life you get what you give, so listen up!
For if you want some, you better come quick and come clean before reality hits you like a brick
I don't give a fuck what was said
I'll listen to the voices in my head before I take note of what you soy on this particular shitty day
Division has reached a feverish pitch and in the end we won't be missed
Consider it a blessing that god sent this great gift
For if you want some, you better come quick and come clean before reality hits you like a brick
For if you want some, get some!
9. Fall From Grace
Rule 1: Never look a gift horse in the mouth
But the fact you did says a lot for you and who are are
How the years go by and you still got it out for me
But that's you, and all your bitterness and fucking jealousy
You pat yourself on the back while I beat my chest
Now can you guess who's the best?
I'll fall from grace and eventually all will fall into place
Eventually I'll fall from grace and eventually all will fall into place, eventually
Rule 2: Never let the bullshit get to you
But the fact that you did makes it all the more true
Do you think at all of those you left in your wake?
I guess not, but that's your choice to make
I bet you'd like to see me fall on my face, or from grace
Just try to knock me out of the race
I bet you can't, so you'll just talk your shit anyway
I built this fortress to be heard and to be righteous with these words
I said be careful what you wish for, and kept all abreast of what's in store
Then you came, you saw, you left.
10. Emerge
You see, I got a fuckin' message for you (and you, and you) and didn't
I tell you I would see this through?
Never claim to represent because you run when the shit goes down
Say goodbye to all of this
The pain, the tears/the shame, the bliss
You've been exposed for what you are, no heart from the very start of this
Unfazed, I will emerge unscathed
Unfazed, I will emerge unscathed back from harm's way
You gotta play it fuckin righteous if you want some respect
This ain't a choice to accept or reject
It boils down to the nitty gritty
The brass tacks of this fuckin' shitty city
Bow down to the powers that be and be the sucker, you mother fucker
You played the role to the fuckin
I should have known you'd turn your back on me.
11. Mass Extinction
With no place to run and no place to hide, we're shit out of luck and out of time
It's like hell on earth, where the parasites reside to feed upon our energy
We're like rats in a cage, shocked and amazed at the scale of what's been done to us
Where evil resides, darkness presides over us no matter what the cost
There's no order in the court and there's no justice for what they did
Behind the promises, the men who sold their souls for the highest bid
We're destined for mass extinction for lack of conviction
En masse extinction for lack of conviction
Full speed ahead into oblivion
We've past the point afwo return
With so much at stake but not much to lose we try to get shit overturned
A fruitless endeavor of biblical proportion lies ahead
No dignity displayed by the masses cause most have none
I'm giving all yet it seems to me that there's no order in the court
The futures bleak, the system stinks to high heaven and back and makes no difference what you think
12. Under The Gun
Soulless and godless, we bum the candle at both ends as progress is being phased out
Our resistance is futile and so we bypass the future while we focus on the here and now
We long for the time when justice wasn't so blind
How we took for granted everything
Well, the time is now (if there ever was a time)
It's all or nothing, sink or swim
Because the power within you is nothing without you, gotta keep movin' on (keep movin' on)
I hear the grass is always greener on the west side of Texas, and the West was won under the gun
Lines in the sand are drawn with bloody hands
The message sent is loud and clear that the strength lies in numbers and the numbers are rising
Lord, take us to the promised land
With no end in sight
We'll fight with all our might to get back on our feet again
It only takes a minute to realize the urgency of what is at hand
High noon can't come too soon
So shoot straight and take 10 steps to the East
Boy I can't wait to end this big charade we played for life
And now I bid farewell for good and bless the cause for which we stood.
