  1. All Life, All minds
  The minds of youth are wandering,
 distracted from all purpose, the values of
 my government are slipping,
 slipping to decay
 
 all life all minds, all interrupted here
 our life, our minds, recognize no fear
 
 the lines of communication are dropping,
 sealin' in our woes, the men in high power
 laughing, calling us the fools
 
 all life all minds, all interrupted here
 our life, our minds, recognize no fear,
 
 recognize no fear no more for humanity,
 nothing left for them to take, find my
 faith down on the floor
 
 recognize no fear no more for humanity
 through trials and tribulations, still haven't
 found the key yet,
 populations suffer greatly, ran into the grave
 
 all life all minds, all interrupted here
 our life, our minds, recognize no fear
 
 
 
  2. Too Strong for Words
  Please don't try to play my sympathies, I've
 got no time for your bag of tricks today,
 
 please don't play me, no sad songs
 please don't crave me, your life long
 dare not spite me, you'll be gone
 dare not cross me, I'm too strong
 too strong for words
 
 say what you will unto me,
 your words fall on deaf ears
 nothing you say could take me away,
 away from what I'm doing
 
 come into my den of iniquity,
 be so smooth with your words
 to have your way
 
 please don't play me, no sad songs
 please don't crave me, your life long
 dare not spite me, you'll be gone
 dare not cross me, I'm too strong
 too strong for words
 
 say what you will unto me,
 your words fall on deaf ears
 nothing you say could take me away,
 away from what I'm doing
 
 now that you see the way I've got to be,
 nothing you say
 could convince me any other way,
 
 please don't play me, no sad songs
 please don't crave me, your life long
 dare not spite me, you'll be gone
 dare not cross me, I'm too strong
 too strong for words
 
 say what you will unto me,
 your words fall on deaf ears
 nothing you say could take me away,
 away from what I'm doing
 
 
 
  3. Outcry
  You paint your lies against me,
 demoralize me your enemy
 sling your mud open the pack,
 we bang our heads together
 you think you're so damn clever,
 I'll break your will I'll break your back
 
 outcry - outcry
 
 you cannot lead so follow
 nothing inside you are hollow
 you cannot breathe a word that's truth
 you put up a hesher's front it's just a simple
 stunt
 retreat inside try to regroup
 
 outcry - outcry
 
 outcry your reason within,
 crumble the weakness you send
 ignore the strnght my defense,
 it's time you learn some respect
 
 we knock our fists together, head from your
 neck I'll sever
 peel the tattoos from your skin, I view your
 life as empty
 no tear for you no sympathy, in my hands I
 hold your face
 
 outcry - outcry
 
 outcry your reason within,
 crumble the weakness you send
 ignore the strnght my defense,
 it's time you learn some respect, punk.
 
 
 
  4. Corruption
  Hello to the innocent,
 lick the fruit upon the vine
 those things you thought were good to
 you went away
 those things you thought were guiding
 you they seem
 to fade, those thing you thought were
 good they die
 anyway, no dream of yours you dream you
 can give away
 never worth the price you pay in the end,
 never worth
 your life - no
 older ones enticing younger to the
 spoiling fray
 at first it seems exciting,
 corruption overrules the same
 
 untie the bonds of love, set it loose with
 hate and greed
 those things you thought were good to
 you went away
 those things you thought were guiding
 you they seem
 to fade, those thing you thought were
 good they die
 anyway, no dream of yours you dream you
 can give away
 never worth the price you pay in the end,
 never worth
 your life - no
 older ones enticing younger to the
 spoiling fray
 at first it seems exciting,
 corruption overrules the same
 
 overrules, corruption, overrules,
 corruption
 
 goodbye to the decadent, virin fruits rot
 on the vine
 those things you thought were good to
 you went away
 those things you thought were guiding
 you they seem
 to fade, those thing you thought were
 good they die
 anyway, no dream of yours you dream you
 can give away
 never worth the price you pay in the end,
 never worth
 your life - no
 older ones enticing younger to the
 spoiling fray
 at first it seems exciting,
 corruption overrules the same
 
 overrules, corruption, overrules,
 corruption
 
 
 
  5. Paths of Thought
  Wandering through the shadows alone,
 stoney faces burn with contempt
 shallow pools of conscious thought,
 wrought from the souls of mortal men
 in clouded thoughts of induced kinds,
 climb the staircase that
 leads to an open mind, search your soul
 peruse the lines,
 misquote what's writ and be misplaced in
 mind
 paths of thought, path's of thought
 
 paths of thought through barren fields,
 harvest of innocence
 that does not yield, in skies of hate
 through rage like rain,
 paths of thought unconscious
 
 mountains built up by your hate,
 shadow the forests of deceit,
 where ocean of tears fall from blind eyes,
 on wings of emotion with no end in sight
 in clouded thoughts of induced kinds,
 climb the staircase that
 leads to an open mind, search your soul
 peruse the lines,
 misquote what's writ and be misplaced in
 mind
 paths of thought, path's of thought
 paths of thought through barren fields,
 harvest of innocence
 that does not yield, in skies of hate
 through rage like rain,
 paths of thought unconscious
 unconscious reflecting,
 unconscious reflecting pain
 
 onward through all flesh and bone,
 pressed on by conviction
 within strangers to our only thoughts,
 where sorrow is our only friend
 in clouded thoughts of induced kinds,
 climb the staircase that
 leads to an open mind, search your soul
 peruse the lines,
 misquote what's writ and be misplaced in
 mind
 paths of thought, paths of thought
 
 paths of thought through barren fields,
 harvest of innocence
 that does not yield, in skies of hate
 through rage like rain,
 paths of thought unconscious
 unconscious reflecting,
 unconscious reflecting pain
 
 
 
  6. If I Fall
  The pression builds and crushes all within,
 it's safe to say my nerve is thin
 the earth cracks open underneath my feet
 and if I fall I follow through with all I have
 within me I'm falling further through an
 empty gash,
 to the bottom I fall fury first,
 my tongue goes deaf I can't speak light
 escapes my eyes I can't see why I've looked
 upon malevolence
 
 eyes burn with, eyes burn with fire,
 even still my
 hands are cold, hands holding, hands hold
 entrapment
 my passion twisted unfolds
 
 impatience strains and pulls my heart apart
 ignite the engine of destructive taste
 the earth cracks open underneath my feet
 and if I fall 
 I follow through with all the anger in me
 
 eyes burn with, eyes burn with fire,
 even still my
 hands are cold, hands holding, hands hold
 entrapment
 my passion twisted unfolds
 
 
 
  7. Marks of Insertion
  What did you hear last night,
 was it another fight,
 ended with a gun, you live in southern
 heights,
 it's not a quiet life searching for a bump
 
 armed aggression, gnashing of teeth,
 armed aggression, stop poking me
 marks of insertion all over me
 
 never satisfied unless you're crystallized,
 become another drone, you live entire lives
 in just a single
 night, it's all you've ever known
 
 armed aggression, gnashing of teeth,
 armed aggression, stop poking me
 marks of insertion all over me
 
 soul searching no soul in thee
 no hope for desparity
 soul searching no soul in thee
 no hope for desparity
 
 get up, marks of insertion, get up,
 is all I can see
 how long has it been since you've had
 good friends
 who wouldn't kill for a crumb, how long
 has it been
 since you've looked so thin, maybe before
 your birth
 
 armed aggression, gnashing of teeth,
 armed aggression, stop poking me
 marks of insertion all over me
 
 soul searching no soul in thee
 no hope for desparity,
 no hopefuls no guarantees, soul searchin'
 no soul in thee
 no soul in thee
 
 
 
  8. God Watchers
  Heavy thunder breaks the silence,
 the waiting has
 been done, the aved are spared from judgement,
 damnation for the rest,
 come again my master calls me 
 instructed from the past,
 haven't read that book
 for years now, it faded from me fast
 
 God watchers, God watchers they
 want for death
 God watchers, God watchers they
 want for their own death I can't understand
 
 seven horsemen bring the fire, seven seals 
 to be undone
 the righteous saved from fire, all others 
 burn in Hell
 claim this soul forever, damnation my best friend
 grips my hand so tightly, when we get near the end
 
 God watchers, God watchers they
 want for death
 God watchers, God watchers they
 want for their own death I can't understand
 
 little Mary grins with laughter,
 a gun stuck to her head
 her mother's life disaster, Mary's life
 abruptly ends
 so impurity claims much faster in the minds
 of mortal men
 the beast has claimed his castle,
 tortured souls within remain
 
 God watchers, God watchers they
 want for death
 God watchers, God watchers they
 want for their own death I can't understand
 
 
 
  9. Forceful Parasite
  - Forceful parasite - 
 
 Tensions tight cut the cord,
 find a better time in life
 house to home spreads
 to thee again afraid, your
 steps are left no regret
 
 mutant, mutate again, mutant
 roaming free again, pleased to eat a friend,
 such a simple way of life, every now and then
 in another pen, forceful parasite, just
 another crazed mutant
 
 excess force intrudes all pores,
 understanding nothing less,
 changing shape and changing form,
 look out Johnny
 law is dead
 mutant, mutate again, mutant
 roaming free again, pleased to eat a friend,
 such a simple way of life, every now and then
 in another pen, forceful parasite, just
 another crazed mutant
 
 jump the fence, bypass alarm, find an open window there
 make your mark in Hell, make it well until there is 
 nothing left but shreds
 
 mutant, mutate again, mutant
 mutant, mutate again, mutant
 
 roaming free again, pleased to eat a friend,
 such a simple way of life, every now and then
 in another pen, forceful parasite, just
 another crazed mutant
 
 roaming free again, pleased to eat a friend,
 such a simple way of life, every now and then
 in another pen, forceful parasite, just
 another crazed mutant
 
 
 
  10. Private Crime
  - Private crime -
 
 Must not, mistreat, must not beseech your
 own land
 obey, deceive, the things you've done are
 quite mad
 frustrations, creation of someone's white shirt
 you're wastin' your craving you want that
 diggin'
 diggin' at your head
 
 secret past, secret life, plastic mask,
 private crime
 to raise your eyes would take more time,
 your private crime is diggin'
 
 throw out your verse,
 throw out abandon and run,
 scream out your voice,
 choke out so no one can hear
 your wastin' your cravin',
 enjoy that diggin', diggin'
 
 secret past, secret life, plastic mask,
 private crime
 to raise your eyes would take more time,
 your private crime is diggin'
 
 covert, cover up, slip in between the small cracks,
 tone down, fade out, same again but different lands
 frustrations, creations of someone's white shirt
 you've wasted, you've craved it, still want
 that diggin', diggin'
 
 secret past, secret life, plastic mask,
 private crime
 to raise your eyes would take more time,
 your private crime an open win
