1. Let It Show
Yr denying the truth, it's what we know
Hide behind lies, don't let it show
Face the reality you can't even see
Is it them you hate or is it just me?
If yr with me, let me know
If yr against me let it show
Next time you look open yr eyes
Imagine the pain, wrapped up inside
Face the question I'm gonna repeat
If yr with me, let me know
If yr against me let it show
Nights: I couldn't sleep thinkin' 'bout
Secrets that you would keep
And all the little things that went slack
In front of my faith + behind my back
Now I'm deaf to these words
That you said I never heard
But it's the thousandth time you said it
Next time you do yr gonna regret it
Let me know, let it show(x2)
2. Help You Think
The choice is there for you to make
Which path in life you'll take
To give yr care and give yr love
And remember the emotions we all think of
Tryin' to help you think
In a positive way
So you can find whatcher lookin' for
Peace of mind + body
So you can turn off
All the hate
Think about yr brother
In a natural state of mind
So you don't have to think about
War + hate + politics + greed
Can you see my point of view?
Can you see my point in you?
Can you see where I'm coming from?
What its all about(x2)
Trying to help you think
Trying to help you live
POSITIVE!
The way ya wanna live!
3. Condemned
Some inner fury's got a hold on me
Ties me up won't let me free
Pain... it makes me hate
I wonder now it is too late
Thoughts of death psychotic dreams
Alter his thoughts to swim in the mainstream
Don't let him think he'll be okay
Give him a pill, he'll be ok
Living life by the will of others; damned to hell
Put some flowers in the padded cell. Perish in a cell
Keep him away from his life's contentment: damned to
Therapy to reduce the resentment-psycho cell hell
Crucify me with your lies
What we say what we do; you despise
Ignorance: the shwing of; is in yer eyes
Open up, understand realize
Out of control, with a pathetic vengeance
Mind decay with a life sentence
Dehumanized by doctors lies
Pain is there, it's in his eyes
Alter his thoughts to swim in the mainstream
Don't let him think he'll be okay
Give him medicine, he'll be ok.
4. World Leader
Man plagued by fear, the voice he hears
Tell him to crucify, by the lies he's told
Never asking why
Locked in a spell, spawned of hell
He's playing the Devil's game
The wars decreed fulfilling the need
Of he who cannot be named
World leader(x3)
Dead leader
Things have changed in the world today
No one gives a fuck about what the people say
Ring leaders in the circus of nations
Toying with people's ties + relations
Don't leave a question of doubt in your mind
Don't look now we're runnin' out of time
Gotta do it now kick down the door
Let 'em know we don't neew thei attention no more
The head of stater makes prices inflate. Then you ask yourself why was he elected. Monuments erected, then impeachment you cry. He'll starts a war no one asked for, then he'll sit back + watch + laff(laugh). Then he'll retire when it's down to the wire and count all the money he has.
5. Hate in Blue
How it thinks + what it sees
Will never be known to you + me
How he lives + how he survives
How hw lives to torment in our lives
For any sane guy would think
You too abhorr this beast
Steaming drunk + proud of hate
Preparing the world to meet their fate
Got his guns + his god
Exterminates an angry mob
Wars fought never won
Nothing ever could be done
Another victim of police war
Gotta try We'll even the score
Hate in blue
Hating you
Hate in Blue
Hating you
6. No. 9
