2. DESIRE TO FIRE
WE TURN DESIRE TO FIRE ELECTRIC SPARK TO THE WIRE ,
HIGHERED THE STAKES WHEN WE BROUGHT THIS MONSTER ,
LIFE PREVAIL BY DARING TO FAIL OTHERS CONTENT JUST TO SAIL,
HAIL THE FUTURE WE BRING.
WE BRING CHAOS TO BLOCKS LIKE RIOTS TO WATTS BLOW UP SPOTS,
TAKING THE CROWN OFF THE TOP NOTCH,
CREATE THE PACE THAT YOU ALL WILL FOLLOW,
SPORADIC FLOW BUCKLES UP LIKE A CALICO,
WE D-O SMOKE SENSMILLA VODKA AND C-O-K-E IS THE REAL DEAL,
YOU FLUBBER, NEVER HAD TO SUFFER,
LIFE'S GETTIN HARDER AND IT'S ONLY GETTIN TOUGHER,
SAVE SOME FOR ME CANT STOP WHAT WERE GOING TO BE .
WALK WITH ME AND TAKE THIS SEED A FIRE FOR YOU SO DARE TO FAIL WILL YOU.
WHEN MY PEN HITS PAD IT RESULTS IN CATASTROPHE,
WORDS AND VERBS COME TO FORM YOUR DISASTER,
IF YOU WANT IT, YOU GOT IT NEVER HIT I SPOT IT,
NOW COME AND WATCH ME RISE.
ON THE TOOLS, I BLEW MORE MONEY THAN LATRELL,
THINK I KNOW YOU TOO WELL YOU FELL,
AND STUMBLED LAUGHIN AS YOU TUMBLED,
I GUESS YOU FORGOT ABOUT THE POWER WE ROCK ,
COME "ALL HAIL THE" MACHINE HEAD BATTERY,
THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE UGLY,
SAVAGE IN CAPACITY YEAH YOU BEEN FUCKED STUCK IN A RUT ,
YOUR LIFE HAS BEEN SUCKED YOUR TAIL HAS BEEN TUCKED .
SAVE SOME FOR ME CAN'T STOP WHAT WERE GOING TO BE,
JUST WATCH AS AS I DEMONSTRATE THE REASON WE DOMINATE .
IF WE STAND ALONE AND BELIEVE IT ALL AND YOU TELL ME IT'S ALL I BELIEVE IN,
YES WE STAND ALONE AND BELIEVE IT ALL IF YOU TELL ME IT'S ALL WE BELIEVE IN ,
BECAUSE WE WE'LL CHEW AND SPIT YOU OUT,
AND PRAY UPON THE WEAKER ,
TAKE WHAT WE WANT .
3. NOTHING LEFT
WITHERED AWAY I SEE IT,
EVERY DAY COMPLACENT,
DESECRATES THE FABRIC OF LIES,
EMPTINESS FILLS INSIDE ME,
BITTERNESS HAS DENIED ME,
FAITH THAT THIS WORLD,
COULD I REALLY GIVE A SHIT.
WHEN I FEEL IT,
COME FALLING,
I TURN YOU AWAY.
I AM THE THINGS THAT YOU FEAR,
MY LEAP OF FAITH WITHOUT A SOUND,
DON'T PUSH MY BACK AGAINST THE WALL,
YES I HAVE STRENGTH WILL NEVER FALL.
WITHERED INSIDE,
THIS SOUL HAS PETRIFIED,
AS CONCRETE FILLS THE SKIES,
THIS LIFE IS DISARRAY,
CONSEQUENCE EVERY ACTION,
BRINGS VIOLENCE FROM THE PASSIONS,
LONELINESS THE EMOTION,
BURIED INSIDE.
WHEN I FEEL IT,
COME FALLING,
I TURN YOU AWAY.
I AM THE THINGS THAT YOU FEAR,
MY LEAP OF FAITH WITHOUT A SOUND ,
DON'T PUSH MY BACK AGAINST THE WALL,
YES I HAVE STRENGTH WILL NEVER FALL.
I FEEL AROUND THE FALLING SUN,
FOR SO LONG I FADE AWAY..AWAY,
FOR YEARS TO NOW BEEN HOLDIN' ON,
FOR SO LONG I FADE AWAY.. AWAY.
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT FOR NOBODY ELSE,
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT FOR NOBODY.
FEEL IT,
COME FALLING,
I TURN YOU AWAY.
I AM THE THINGS THAT YOU FEAR,
MY LEAP OF FAITH WITHOUT A SOUND,
DON'T PUSH MY BACK AGAINST THE WALL.
YES I HAVE STRENGTH WILL NEVER FALL.
4. THE BLOOD, THE SWEAT, THE TEARS.
YES I'VE WALKED THE PATH THATS RIGHTEOUS,
MANY MEN HAVE WALKED BEFORE,
YEAH THIS PAIN CELL, THE BROKEN SHELL,
SCRAPED, SHACKLED ONTO THE FLOOR,
SO WELCOME TO THE WORLD THAT I LIVED IN,
PUKING OUT VIOLENT HATE,
MY WORLD ENTERED A FALSE RECLUSE,
SICKENING FROM DISEASE,
BUT THEN I SEE,
THIS THING IN ME,
MAKE ME WANT IT MORE THAN YOU,
BUT I DENY YOUR FLESH,
CAUSE PAIN'S MY WISH,
RACING ON SELF DESTRUCT.
SO HOLD ON TO THE END...
ITS ALL ABOUT THE BLOOD, THE SWEAT, THE TEARS,
A TRIBUTE TO THE STRENGTH BUILT THROUGH THE YEARS.
OH YES I'VE WALKED THE PATH THAT ,
GIVES ME CONFIDENCE STRONG AND PURE,
NOW I REALIZED THAT FREEDOM RISES ,
FROM COMFORT IN THE SOURCE,
I BUILT THESE WALLS AROUND ME,
AND I CAN'T BREAK THEM ALL AWAY,
AND I FOCUS ON THE STRENGTH I CALL,
INSUFFERABLE AND INSANE.
SO HOLD ON TO THE END...
ITS ALL ABOUT THE BLOOD, THE SWEAT, THE TEARS,
A TRIBUTE TO THE STRENGTH BUILT THROUGH THE YEARS,
A TRIBUTE TO SOUL...
TAKE THIS,
FOCUS,
MADNESS,
TO TAKE...

HOLD ON.. FALLING.. PLEASE LET GO..
HOLD ON.. I'M FALLING... I'M FALLING DOWN AGAIN...
