1. Lack of Motivation
I don't have the time to sing this fucking song
Ain't got no ideas, can't go fucking wrong
Pressure building up, bullshit going down
At each other's throats, looking for the sound
[Chorus:]
Lack of motivation no one gives a damn
Try to move ahead, but I don't think I can
There will come a day when we will understand
There will come a day when we'll destroy the band
I cannot make sense of this
Can't understand what the hell it is
First we're up and then we're down
Wish we could decide, decide right now
[Spoken:]
Yo, what's your fucking problem man?
You're coming in here late every fucking night!
Bad attitude!
And you had your head up your ass for the last six weeks
You better reach around, and get it out of there real fast
Or we're giving you your walking papers
You know where the door is right buddy?
You can hit the road
Lack of motivation no one gives a damn
Try to move ahead, but I don't think I can
There will come a day when we will understand
There will come a day when we'll destroy the band
2. CDS
Deadly substance has you out of control
Just one more step and you're six feet in a hole
Cripples your body and destroys your head
C.D.S. will leave you maimed or dead
Play the game and lets see who wins
If you wanna play, you'll pay for your sins
Fuck around, and you'll soon be admitted
Take a chance and forever in Hell you're committed
[Chorus:]
C.D.S. You can't tell
Just one shot
Straight to Hell
Deadly substance has you out of control
Just one more step and you're six feet in a hole
Cripples your body and destroys your head
C.D.S. will leave you maimed or dead
Now's the time to make up your mind
Steer in the direction, that will help you to find
There is more, to life than substance abuse
Life is far too short, put what you have to use
[Chorus]
Just one shot and you're dead
Life and death will be served
You will face, all the sins you've committed
Just one shot and you're dead
Life and death will be served
Take a chance and you will
Pay with, your life, you'll die
3. Punishment Area
Leaves of green do not exist
Just those condemned to death
Don't complain or shake your fist
Your life is up at best
[Spoken:]
Warning: You have just entered the punishment area.
Here you will pay for all the anguish you have put others through
During your life here on earth.
There will be no hope and no relief
Only discomforts exists in Hell
[Chorus:]
You have just entered the Punishment Area
And I promise you will not come back
You cannot depend on me to take care of you
Life as you once knew has turned to:
Darkness fills up my soul
Please help me now, dear God
Free to be, but not to choose
No second chance. Too late
[Chorus]
Sin is a price that you must pay
It hears not what you have to say
You are trash. It throws you away
So if you have the deep desire
To spend your afterlife in fire
Do what you wish until you die
Sin is a price that you must pay
It hears not what you have to say
You are trash. It throws you away
[Chorus]
4. Rampage / Nothing Uncommon
Yah!
Lots of things in life that I like but I hate you
Seems you only bitch and moan
When there's other things to do you waste my time
Why don't you leave me alone?
The world would be a better place if you were dead
Place the gun up to your head
[Chorus:]
You can't help the fact that you're so stupid
Every word you say is utter crap
Brainless, senseless, thoughtless common idiot
Why don't you just shut your trap?
Better stay away from me cause I'm not safe
Might reach out and grab your neck
Seems you just don't know, seems you don't understand
You had better take control
Watch your every move, you better watch your step
Someone buries you alive
[Chorus]
Brainless, senseless, thoughtless common idiot
Why don't you just shut your trap?
Right now!
5. Have No Fear
They spoke of the end
And when it would happen
It's that time again
This time it's for certain
Like lightning's swift hand
The end will come quickly
No time to prepare
Be sure you dig deeply
Have no fear
Now that the end is near
Have no fear
High order prevails
Now you and I suffer
The curtain's unveiled
No comfort can buffer
Just a push away
And we'll all be history
Darkness rules the day
All pain and misery
Life after death I doubt
All life now is forced out
Now is the time to cope with fear
Nothingness will exist here
Just a push away
And we will be history
Darkness rules the day
Consumed by death and misery
Have...no fear
6. What Would You Expect
The government keeps spending
The country's always lending
Supplies out the ass so they can stab us in the back
The stock market falling, while the corporations are sawing
Employees out like deadwood so the profits can increase
Insurance rates increasing, cost of living shoot straights up
Crime is on the rise and the prisons just erupt
This racist shit still with us, war is surely far from gone
If the summit doesn't do it, we'll all be ash and bone
[Chorus:]
Corruption in the government
But what would you expect
Some things will never change
And on this you can surely bet
Tell me where we're heading to Hell
As time runs out, in a deadly battle we fight a losing bout
Another child's abducted, what is it with these nuts
Or a hostage used in blackmail, this push has come to shove
The rich keep getting richer and the poor they just die off
If we can't help each other, our time is surely lost
Insurance rates increasing, cost of living shoot straights up
Crime is on the rise and the prisons just erupt
This racist shit still with us, war is surely far from gone
If the summit doesn't do it, we'll all be ash and bone
[Chorus]
Destroy the ozone with chemicals
Our food and water get the same
You say you're gonna clean it up now
Your hypocrisy becomes so lame
7. Darkside
It was the birth of my darkside
Uncertainty in the air
Wanting to take a chance
Suppress my fear of the dare
I choose to live a life of pain
Refuse - instead I live insane
[Chorus:]
Darkside - the violence runs red
The evil curse is everywhere
I'd rather be dead
Darkside - the violence runs red
The evil curse is everywhere
I'd rather be:
Just what I needed
Something to change my life
It makes no difference
How I make up my mind
I choose to live a life of pain
Refuse - instead I live insane
[Chorus x2]
(Dark) Darkness finds its way inside me (Side)
(Dark) Don't think I will ever change (Side)
(Dark) Look outside it's growing darker (Side)
(Dark) A reflection of myself (Side)
(Dark) Darkness finds its way inside me (Side)
(Dark) Don't think I will ever change (Side)
(Dark) Look outside it's growing darker (Side)
(Dark) A reflection of myself (Side)
And now my heart's black
And that's the way it will stay
There's nothing better
There's no other way
I choose to live a life of pain
Refuse - instead I live insane
[Chorus x2]
8. Shadow Knows
Late at night, you hear the footsteps behind you
Is it just imagination, or the devil in disguise?
Deeper in the darkness, don't know what you're getting into
Could it be the apparition, of the fear before your eyes?
[Chorus:]
Black gates of hell, they burn in fire
Fear wraps its fingers around your neck
Your fight is worse than your desire
To watch the shadows disappear
There in the dark, you're sure there's something lurking
You tell yourself it can't be, don't want to believe
Your fear starts running wild, your heart starts to thrash
Before it gets the best of you, your mind you must bring back
What evil lurks in minds of man?
The Shadow knows
What evil lurks in minds of man?
The Shadow knows
What evil lurks in minds of man?
The Shadow knows
What evil lurks in minds of man?
The Shadow knows
What evil lurks in minds of man?
Yeah, yes - The Shadow knows
Late at night, you hear the footsteps behind you
Is it just imagination, or the devil in disguise?
Deeper in the darkness, don't know what you're getting into
Could it be the apparition, of the fear before your eyes?
[Chorus x2]
9. Ripoffs
He sees you coming and he knows what you've got
He'll take it all
He feels no guilt, he shows no mercy
When he hears the call
Draw his attention and his eyes
Out of his sockets
He zeroes in on the cash
That's in your back pockets
Ripoff has on thing in mind
He'll take off with your cash
Behind your back, he'll rip you blind, as you will find
The ripoff is never kind
[Chorus:]
Ripoff - Has one thing in mind
Ripoff - Attacks from behind
Ripoff - One thing in mind
Ripoff - Rips you blind
Just when you think you know him well
You realize that you can't tell him apart
The ripoff takes on many forms
He strikes you down and never warns, a thief at heart
Take my advice or pay a heavy price for your ignorance
Pay close attention or you'll be flat broke, no coincidence
Ripoff has on thing in mind
He'll take off with your cash
Behind your back, he'll rip you blind, as you will find
The ripoff is never kind
[Chorus]
You die!
With all the money the ripoff makes
The ripoff will do just what it takes
To see that you'll be fooled again
He'll rip you blind until the end
10. Time Bomb
Demented individuals, children of remorse
Lashing out destruction, terror takes its course
Slay their mortal innocence, for they stand in the way
What cannot wait 'til tomorrow will be destroyed today
[Chorus:]
Time bomb, ticking in your face
Make a sudden move, and watch it blow apart the place
Time bomb, deadly from the start
Believe that the intention is to blow this place apart
Spread the fear, upon other nations
Threatening, increasing frustrations
Acting out of cowardice, it's the only way they can
Explosives give them power, taking lives of other men
[Chorus]
Who will bear the cross
Careless sense of loss
All life crushed to dust
Killing fills their lust
Hatred clouds their eyes
Rancid death loud cries
Total annihilation, never ending death
Crushing helpless people, smothering last breaths
Taking lives not given, as if they had control
They're the ones who will decay in Hell's eternal hole
We're given equal power, which we should not abuse
Their self-destructive hatred shall cause the world to lose
11. Instruments of Death
Welcome to your life of concentration
The killing has just begun
Another disposable creation
There is no place to run
Electrodes are attached around your body
Needles are injected in your skin
Disrupted life expectancy
No spirit, no soul, no sin
[Chorus:]
Instruments of death are cutting through your mind
Exposing a disease you thought was hard to find
No one ever said that life would be so kind
With instruments of death
As part of this routine examination
He'll force you to relax and to unwind
Slicing into your imagination
All positive emotions left behind
Behold - The deadly doctor's scalpel
As it cuts into your brain
A victim of worthless anesthesia
You die in pain - no gain
[Chorus x2]
