PANTERA LYRICS
"Mouth For War" (1992 Single)
1. Mouth For War 2. Rise 3. Cowboys From Hell (live) 4. Heresy (live)
1. Mouth For War
Revenge
I'm screaming revenge again
Wrong I've been wrong for far too long
Been constantly so frustrated I've moved mountains with less
When I channel my hate to productive
I don't find it hard to impress
Bones in traction Hands break to hone raw energy
Bold and disastrous My ears can't hear what you say to me
Hold your mouth for the war
Use it for what it's for
Speak the truth about me
Determined
Possessed
I feel a conquering will down inside me
Strength
The strength of many to crush who might stop me
My strength is in number and my soul lies in every one
The releasing of anger can better any medicine under the sun
Bones in traction Hands break to hone raw energy
Bold and disastrous My ears can't hear what you say to me
Hold your mouth for the war
Use it for what it's for
Speak the truth about me
Determined
There comes a time within everyone
to close your eyes to what's real
No comprehension to fail I vacuum the wind for my sail
Can't be the rest Let others waste my time
Owning success is the bottom line.
Like a knife into flesh After life is to death
Pulling and punching the rest of duration
NO ONE can piss on this determination
2. Rise
We've got no time to lose
Your news is old news
Hate this, hate me, hate this
Right approach for the wrong
It's time to spread the word
Let the voice be heard
All of us, one of us, all of us Dominate
and take the motherfucking world
Mass prediction, unification Breathing life into out lungs
EVERY creed and EVERY kind To give us depth for strength
Taught when we're young to hate one another
It's time to have a new reign of power
Make pride universal so no one gives in
Turn our backs on those who oppose
Then when confronted we ask them the question
What's wrong with their mind? What's wrong with your mind?
(Chorus) It's time to RISE
We've lived with past mistakes
And we've lived with our own
Forgive, forget forgive Be a man, not a child
There are to tears for peace
Or the common sympathies
Educate, reinstate, educate
A thing of past The trouble in the states It's time to rise
3. Cowboys From Hell (live)
Under the lights where we stand tall
Nobody touches us at all
Showdown, shootout, spread fear within, without
We're gonna take what's ours to have
Spread the word throughout the land
They say the bad guys wear black
We're tagged and can't turn back
You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin over this town
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell
Pillage the village, trash the scene
But better not take it out on me
'Cause a ghost town is found
Where your city used to be
So out of the darkness and into the light
Sparks fly everywhere in sight
From my double barrel, 12 gauge,
Can't lock me in your cage
You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin over this town
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell
4. Heresy (live)
Here we are
In a world of corruption
Human nature is
Of violent Breed
Who cares if there;s no tomorrow
When I die for my future's
Laid out for me
Can't you see?
Rise above the lies
Morals on a backwards globe
A sin to you
For me it's hope.
It's my life and provision
Black or white
Some pay to pray
You question why they
Act this way
It's their fucking decision
No more judgement day
Only tranquility
Peace signs, protest lines
Mean nothing to me
Honesty born in me
Heresy
I know what's right or wrong
And my belief is stronger
Than your advice
People, they go to war
Because religion gives them
Reason to fight
Sacrifice, die for pride
A group that caters
No one's fees
Or synthetic deities
Is where I belong
My stand is the human race
Without a label or a face
So they can lick my sack
No more judgement day
Only tranquility
Peace signs, protest lines
Mean nothing to me
Honesty born in me
Heresy
