[Eminem]
A lot of people ask me.. stupid fuckin questions
A lot of people think that.. what I say on records
or what I talk about on a record, that I actually do in real life
or that I believe in it
Or if I say that, I wanna kill somebody, that..
I'm actually gonna do it
or that I believe in it
Well, shit.. if you believe that
then I'll kill you
You know why?
Cuz I'm a
CRIMINAL
CRIMINAL
You god damn right
I'm a CRIMINAL
Yeah, I'm a CRIMINAL
[Eminem]
My words are like a dagger with a jagged edge
That'll stab you in the head
whether you're a fag or lez
Or the homosex, hermaph or a trans-a-vest
Pants or dress - hate fags? The answer's "yes"
Homophobic? Nah, you're just heterophobic
Starin at my jeans, watchin my genitals bulgin (Ooh!)
That's my motherfuckin balls, you'd better let go of em
They belong in my scrotum, you'll never get hold of em
Hey, it's me, Versace
Whoops, somebody shot me!
And I was just checkin the mail
Get it? Checkin the 'male'?
How many records you expectin to sell
after your second LP sends you directly to jail?
C'mon!-- Relax guy, I like gay men
Right, Ken? Give me an amen (AAA-men!)
Please Lord, this boy needs Jesus
Heal this child, help us destroy these demons
Oh, and please send me a brand new car
And a prostitute while my wife's sick in the hospital
Preacher preacher, fifth grade teacher
You can't reach me, my mom can't neither
You can't teach me a goddamn thing cause
I watch TV, and Comcast cable
and you ain't able to stop these thoughts
You can't stop me from toppin these charts
And you can't stop me from droppin each March
with a brand new cd for these fuckin retards
Duhhh, and to think, it's just little ol' me
Mr. "Don't Give A Fuck," still won't leave
[Chorus: Eminem (repeat 2X)]
I'm a CRIMINAL
Cuz every time I write a rhyme, these people think it's a crime
to tell em what's on my mind - I guess I'm a CRIMINAL
but I don't gotta say a word, I just flip em the bird
and keep goin, I don't take shit from no one
[Eminem]
My mother did drugs - tar, liquor, cigarettes, and speed
The baby came out - disfigured, ligaments indeed
It was a seed who would grow up just as crazy as she
Don't dare make fun of that baby cause that baby was me
I'm a CRIMINAL - an animal caged who turned crazed
But how the fuck you sposed to grow up when you weren't raised?
So as I got older and I got a lot taller
My dick shrunk smaller, but my balls got larger
I drink malt liquor to fuck you up quicker
than you'd wanna fuck me up for sayin the word nigga
My morals went thhbbpp when the president got oral
Sex in his Oval Office on top of his desk
Off of his own employee
Now don't ignore me, you won't avoid me
You can't miss me, I'm white, blonde-haired
and my nose is pointy
I'm the bad guy who makes fun of people that die
in plane crashes and laughs
As long as it ain't happened to him
Slim Shady, I'm as crazy as Em
-inem and Kim combined - [*kch*] the maniac's in
Replacin the doctor cause Dre couldn't make it today
He's a little under the weather, so I'm takin his place
(Mm-mm-mmm!) Oh, that's Dre with an AK to his face
Don't make me kill him too and spray his brains all over the place
I told you Dre, you should've kept that thang put away
I guess that'll teach you not to let me play with it, eh?
I'm a CRIMINAL
[Interlude Skit]
Aight look (uh huh) just go up in that motherfucker

[Teller] Don't kill me, please don't kill me...
[Eminem] I said I'm not gonna fuckin kill you
Hurry the fuck up! [*BOOM*] Thank you!
[Eminem]
Windows tinted on my ride when I drive in it
So when I rob a bank, run out and just dive in it
So I'll be disguised in it
And if anybody identifies the guy in it
I'll hide for five minutes
Come back, shoot the eyewitness
Fire at the private eye hired to pry in my business
Die, bitches, bastards, brats, pets
This puppy's lucky I didn't blast his ass yet [*dog whines*]
If I ever gave a fuck, I'd shave my nuts
tuck my dick inbetween my legs and cluck
You motherfuckin chickens ain't brave enough
to say the stuff I say, so just tape it shut [*tape unrolls*]
Shit, half the shit I say, I just make it up
To make you mad so kiss my white naked ass
And if it's not a rapper that I make it as
I'ma be a fuckin rapist in a Jason mask
[Chorus 2X]
He is a hustler, he's no good at all
He is a loser, he's a bum
(Bum, bum, bum)
He lies, he fluffs he's unreliable
He is a sucker with a gun
(Gun, gun, gun)
I know you told me I should stay away
I know you said he's just a dog astray
He is a bad boy with a tainted heart
And even I know this ain't smart
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy
He is a villain of the devil's law
He is a killer just for fun
(Fun, fun, fun)
That mans a snitch and unpredictable
He's got no conscience, he got none
(None, none, none)
All I know, should let go but no
'Cause he's a bad boy with a tainted heart
And even I know this ain't smart
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy
And he's got my name tattooed on his arm
His lucky charm, so I guess its okay
He's with me
And I hear people talk
(People talk)
Trying to make remarks, keep us apart
But I don't even hear I don't care
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
All reason aside, I just can't deny, love the guy
But mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be alright
Monday they predict the storm
Tuesday they predict the bad
Wednesday they cover the grass
And I can see it's all about cash
And they got the nerve to hunt down my ass
And treat me like a criminal
Look, it is what it is
Because of what it was
I did what I did
Cause it does what it does
I don't put nothin' above
What I am, what I love
My family, my blood
My city and my hood
Hater for the greater good
I'm back from Hollywood
And I ain't changed a lick
Though, I know I probably should
But, what I'm doin' is not a good look
I never did it by the good book, as a lifetime crook
All the petty crime took a toll on me
I look around at my homies that's gettin' old on me
But still somethin' gotta hold on me
Maybe it's faith
If it's comin', yo I'm willing to wait
I'm not runnin', I done ran through the mud
I done scrambled and such
I done robbed an odd job and gambled enough
Till I'm put up in handcuffs
And pissin' in a cup
If there's a God
I don't know if he listenin' or what
Yeah, it is what it is
And that's how it go
Get treated like a criminal
If crime is all you know
Get greeted like a nigga
If a nigga saw your show
A public enemy, to send a eye in the scope
My city like a island where you can't find a boat
Have you wishin' for a raft
And prayin that hope flows
Some real (?) going down on soul (?)
Who lookin' for a chair and some real strong rope
Just to end it all here
Screamin' "fuck the mayor"
He see the faces at the bottom of the welfare
They act like I'm somethin' to fear
Trapped in urban warfare
And pullin' triggers at a college career
Can't ignore the call of the wild
That's drawin' 'em near
Try to make fast money last long some years
Try to laugh it off
Still couldn't lose the tears
To the rules, I will not adhere
Break the law, yeah...
Who wanna challenge mine?
I'm sick of St. Valentine
I did the violent crimes
That's why I got this style of rhyme
Seek repentance to spittin' them sentences
To senseless experience is the difference
You can't convince this
In a crime sense, niggas is infants
I'm like a senior citizen
Still livin' but gettin' benefits
Put emphasis on hittin' my nemesis in high percentages
Crooked ass cops is the reason for my belligerence
And it gets deeper than that
Remember nights I used to sleep wit a gat
With a package of crack under my sneaker strap
D's sneak attack and raid me
It took a week for that
Beat the rat, but you're sayin' "look, he think he the mack"
Fuck y'all!
Niggas who thinkin' they might try us
Watch us inside riots
Blue cars and light fires
We already been knocked, scrutinized
Plus, cops rush to brutalize us
America's polluted by lust
Who could I trust?
If I can't trust you, then I might touch you
If I ain't got love for you
Kimi no chinmoku ga nagaku tsuzuke ba tsuzuku hodo ni
Koe ni naranai sakebi ga kikoeru you de
Mune ga harisake sou
Doushite konna ni watashi wa hidoku muryoku de oroka de
Tsunaida hazu no te sae mo mamoru koto ga dekinai
Nee itsuka yurushite hoshii to wa iwanai
Sou kimi ga ima hitori tatakau no nara

Tsuyoku aritai to negau amari ni kimi wa namida to

Sou kimi ni tobikiri no keshiki misetai
Sore koso ga ashita e no aizu mirai e

Here in the criminal justice act
It says it's illegal to even react
By marching against the sudden new lack
Of freedom of movement, assembly, and that
Goes for everyone, cos now we're all dispossessed
Little joy in the illusion that they can't mess up our heads
As we're taking life as being a reward
We're constantly told that we can't afford
To live it - not the way we do
Cos now we're breaking the law - is it me or is it you
Who thought we could live without heeding it?
Now the boundaries have shrunk to fit
To lifestyles
Based on total social complicity
To work ethic-media-domesticity
Staying silent in response to freedoms
Being so curtailed we forget we need them
To exist - variety breeds tension
Then people debate what was never mentioned
Before - ideas deal with feelings
And laws try to shape the ideas that we deal in
At the point where the ideas
Have spread enough distance - distance
To call it a lifestyle - lifestyle
We start to meet the resistance
Here in the criminal justice act
All our paranoias turn out to be fact!
They really are out to get you!
So party on, dude!
Now we've all been criminalised
For refusing to be led
They can't control our movements
They can't close down our heads
And if you start to think they can
They've won another round
Toward completion of their plan
To keep the people down
The more we get pushed
The more we push back
Destroy the criminal justice act!
I won't deny, I faked it
Don't wanna lie, I'm jaded
I wanna scream when inside I'm breaking down
I've left the stone I was under
I'm running home, you won't find her
She walks alone all through this broken town
Goin' the wrong way down a one way street
Where the feeling is criminal
Nobody helps me out when I bleed
Just a look, look, looking for someone like me
Where the feeling is mutual
Can anybody see what I see
Cause I don't see me
I blow away the ashes
I clear his face to look at it
He stole my name while I waited lost and found
I found a place where I'll keep you
Cause I won't live through you or beneath you
I walk this way where these winds won't bring me down
Goin' the wrong way down a one way street
Where the feeling is criminal
Nobody helps me out when I bleed
Just a look, look, looking for someone like me
Where the feeling is mutual
Can anybody see what I see
Cause I don't see me don't
Let me be
Save it all
Don't waste it on me
Cause if I take a chance
And if I hurt again
And if I let you in
Be my reckoning
Ooo, hey!
Goin' the wrong way down a one way street
Where the feeling is criminal
Nobody helps me out when I bleed
Just a look, look, looking for someone like me
Where the feeling is mutual
Can anybody see what I see
Look at me high upon the hill
You could say I?m on top of the world
Baby I?m blue, all because of you
I can see this city
Crumble all around me
Press me to your chest
Block out the view
Oh, whoa whoa whoa
You made me
Some kind of criminal
You put me out-law
Because I loved you
In my time one thing I?ve learned
If you play with fire you get burned
Oh, baby, it?s true, I got burned by you
I put everything I had into a bag
And trusted you to do
What you didn?t do
Oh, whoa whoa whoa
You made me
Some kind of criminal
You put me out-law
Because l loved you
The first thing I think when I wake up
When can I see you?
The last thing I think when I?m drifting off
When will I see you?
Oh, look at me I?m addicted still
At first I refused, now I just swallow the pill
Oh, baby won?t you
Fix me like you used to?
I could spend my time in hell
I might as well 'cause hell is where
I?m bound to dwell without you
Oh, whoa whoa whoa
You made me
Some kind of criminal
You put me out-law
Get up and fight
Stand up and fight
Needle in eye wasting my time
Liar pussy I hate you
And you and you and you
I'm flying you can't stop me
I drink my whiskey
I burn my clothes
You shove cocaine up your nose
I'm high on you oh my god
Daddy can't you stop the pain
Malevolent criminal, I
When the vision paints my mind
Cross the invisible line
And you'll be paid in kind
Malevolent criminal, I
When the vision paints my mind
Cross the invisible line
And you'll be paid in kind
Hit it!
Criminal, this suffering
It makes me think like a criminal
The suffering, when we're alone
Criminal, this suffering
It makes me feel like a criminal
The suffering, when we're alone
Typical enough for me
That I burn inside in agony
What power will enable me
To bury my vision
The hunger coming over me
As I learn to hide the agony
To make a final remedy
To close the door once and for all!
In a world that I don't want to know
With a message that I never want to send
To be freed from all of this
I want you to quicken my end
Don't tell me I cannot go
With a wound that refuses to mend
Deliver me from all of this
I want you to quicken my end
It seems the whole experience is
Terrible and crippling
The pain is much more
Than physical, beyond belief
When we're alone
Typical enough for me
That I burn inside in agony
What power will enable me
To make this decision
Despair has fallen over me
No way to hide the agony
Embracing my calamity
To save myself once and for all!
In a world that I don't want to know
With a message that I never want to send
To be freed from all of this
I want you to quicken my end
Don't tell me I cannot go
With a wound that refuses to mend
Deliver me from all of this
I want you to quicken my end
Now you wanna know, you want a name
You wanna call me motherfucker
Now you wanna know, you want a name
You wanna say it doesn't matter
Now you wanna know, you want a name
You wanna call me motherfucker
Now you wanna know, you want a name
You wanna say it doesn't matter now!
Now, now you wanna know, now you wanna name
Now you wanna place, now you wanna time
Now you wanna know
Now, now you wanna know, now you wanna name
Now you wanna place , now you wanna time
Now you wanna know, now!
In a world that I don't want to know
With a message that I never want to send
To be freed from all of this
I want you to quicken my end
Don't tell me I cannot go
With a wound that refuses to mend
Deliver me from all of this
I want you to quicken my end
Don't say that it isn't so
I'm on a path that you'll never comprehend
Set me free from all of this
My anger is a sign of disgust with myself
A stewing serenade I hear the sirens on their way
The chemicals inside of me just kept on swimming through my veins
Maybe I should make a move and try to leave this all behind
I listen to the absence of noise
Dead summer breeze, I'm inflated with suspicions
Seems I've identified again the criminal of my intent
Imagine exercising that same routine you reinvent
I'm just a cold face on the street
slow and somber in my patterns
I'm just a friend you'll never meet
I am the love that never happens
My days exist in meaningless ways
I need a way to shake this
I'm making lost time famous
My heart goes rushing to my head whatever happened to me
Weeks spin forward I'm aware that I've been living in reverse
I always hesitate like the future is engraved
Roots here grow really deep they're networked beneath the city streets
It's a structured kind of madness
I always turn away back to a safer fate
Like a criminal.
Did you think it could be like on TV?
Where you could be big in your own movie?
Did real life let you down?
A genuine Pygmalion.
CHORUS:
(Criminal) Like a criminal.
(No) No good to anyone.
(Foolish) Gotta get a life and get sensible.
(No) No pity, no pardon.
Criminal. Just like a criminal.
Could've been a factor.
Could've been another distracter.
Some like it in limousines, I like it in a tractor.
Solo, separate, not just one of a crowd.
Indifferent to compliment.
I leave my funeral ground.
CHORUS
(Criminal) Like a criminal.
(No) No pity, no pardon.
Just a criminal.
Haven't got a clue.
Cannot comprehend anything you value.
I'm probably just like you.
Yes, I haven't got a clue.
Just let that Judas goat lead you down that narrowing
path.
As affluence is your influence.
You'll be of no consequence.
CHORUS
(Criminal) Like a criminal.
(No) No pity, no pardon.
Yes, I haven't got a clue.
Just like a criminal.
I can not comprehend anything you value.
Probably just like you.
Yes, I haven't got a clue.
(music arcwelder/words s. macdonald)
I have this dream involving you and me
It grows then fades changing every day
Fine tune it then it fades out again
Feel like I'm a criminal
[chorus]
Could it be - you don't try to understand
Now could it be - you should lead and not command
Now could it be - I won't give in to your demands
Feel like I'm a criminal
Am I that dense - you tell me "no offense"
Then criticize right between the eyes
Black dirt white grain - ideas wash down the drain
Step back away - listen to what you say
It's got to go and I think you should know
Feel like I'm a criminal
Through the corridors of power
Seeps the stench of sulphur
They have gathered again
To plot their global agenda
Bringers of plagues
Merchants of war
Masters of slavery
High priests of manipulation
Unholy alliance
Of de-facto powers
Black mass of the chosen few
To dictate history
Bringers of plagues
Merchants of war
Masters of slavery
High priests of manipulation
Akelarre!
Akelarre!
Akelarre!
Bringers of plagues
Merchants of war
Masters of slavery
High priests of manipulation
Akelarre!
Akelarre!
Akelarre!
Pray for rain to fall endlessly
Wipe the dirt, cleanse and purify
Purge our sins, set the earth free
Cover our shame, spawn a new time
Open the gates
Bring on the tides
Drown this deranged life
Open the gates
Bring on the tides
Unleash the deluge
Pray for rain to wash all pain away
Flood the stage of human misery
Buried dreams of divinity
Life erased, vain and futile
Open the gates
Bring on the tides
Drown this deranged life
Open the gates
Bring on the tides
Unleash the deluge
Desolated, depopulated
Apocalypse done
Decimated biblical plague
No kingdom come
Sun shall rise, a new day arrives
In silent splendor
Divine emptiness, godless paradise
A barren wasteland
Open the gates
Bring on the tides
Drown this deranged life
Open the gates
Bring on the tides
Invaders from a land afar
Raping our land, our lives and our pride
Bringing disease to our bodies and minds
Live by the cross
Or die by the sword
Never surrender
To your empty god
Desecration of the soil we call home
Predators of insatiable wants
Criminals drench our country with blood
Live by the cross
Or die by the sword
Never surrender
To your empty god
Our souls were clean as your waters and lands
Envy and greed have infected our lives
Call it progress, soulness infamy
Live by the cross
Or die by the sword
Never surrender
I want to possess you
Infest you
Crush your soul
I want to control your life
And set you free
I want to violate you
Corrode you
Inhabit your flesh
I want to submerge you in pain
And let you be
Possession
Submission
Repression
Possession
Submissioni
Release
Hate me
Detest me
Scream for more
I want to live your life
In misery
I want to enslave you
Chain you
At my feet
I want to worship
Every inch of me
Suffer
Weep
Surrender
Be free
Possession
Submission
Repression
Possession
Submission
Black light shines on me
Life's blood poisoned stream
Stigma - A wound so deep
Lost soul fornever free
Wasted lives
Chasing the shadows of giants
Who tear our our eyes as we die
Escape from the land of the blind
We're the damned, the dwelling souls
Lost centuries ago
No redemption, the tortured ones
Mass grave, forgotten sons
Wasted lives
Chasing the shadows of giants
Who tear our our eyes as we die
Escape from the land of the blind
Black light!
Undead we walk
Towards no end
Undead we walk
We are the damned
Black light shines on me
Life's blood poisoned stream
Stigma - A wound so deep
Lost soul fornever free
Wasted lives
Chasing the shadows of giants
Who tear our our eyes as we die
Escape from the land of the blind
Crooked crosses, twisted minds
Dangerous attraction
Stir up hatred, bait dissent
Open persecution
Never learn from past mistakes
Cling on to denial
Immune to reason, immune to truth
Small dog bark loud
Hatemonger's tirades
For cowards and fools
Join the dastard parade
Mobrule
Only numbers make you strong
On your own you're nothing
Spreading terror among the weak
Makes you fell superior
Willing puppet of higher powers
Ignore what you fight for
In the reich you so yearn for
You'd be the first to go
Hatemonger's tirades
For cowards and fools
Join the dastard parade
Mobrule
Five minutes of fame
A lifetime of shame
You sold your soul
To rot... And roll
Plastic provocation
Prepackaged rebellion
For the ever-hungry herd
Ruminant mass of nerds
Your image of lies
Is large than life
Your verbal ammunition
Cliches and repetition
Cheap, worn-out symbolism
Ease target, a dead religion
Early on your substance lost
All is said and done and sold
Another gear in the machine
Fast food for blank souls
More product for the industry
Leave your ideals at the door
Ephemeral shine
Certain decline
You'll go far
Shine on bastard star
Unprovoked aggression
Massive supremacy
Imperial domination
Global hegemony
Constant intervention
Preemptive strike doctrine
Widespread annihilation
Lethal technology
[Chorus:]
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
The day will come
The twilight of empires
Rise and fall
Subversive tactics
Nihilist philosophy
Mass extermination
Suicide strategy
Glorified immolation
Blind fundamentalism
Perpetual confrontation
Self-fulfilled prophecy
[Chorus]
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
Rise and fall
Black, life fades to back
Nothing to bring it back
What you covet what you suffered for
You will lose it all
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
Life is agony a path to nowhere
Time is a spiral of fear
No real freedom the body a cage
Consumed and rotting with age
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Illusion of life lost
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Illusion of life lost
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
Devoured by oblivion
All you were is gone
Nothing remains in the end
But a dead soul left behind
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
The mind's erase
The flesh decayed
The void awaits
Fallen Idol
Old man. Scorned
Distrust. Blackmail
Painful Growth
Chorus:
I belong to you
I was torn from
Your Flesh
I become you
Now i see through
Your Eyes
Rebel angel
Serves no master
Looks back guilty
Fought and lost
(Chorus)
Fear not
Let go
Free your soul
Just like you
You'll live on
In the life of the son
[Music: Contreras,Reisenegger, Lyrics: Reisenegger,Ponce]
Morbosa atraccion, Al hedor de la putrefaccion
Placer clandestino, sucumbiendo a la tentacion
Hijos de la miseria, esclavizados por su debilidad
Una raza maldita encadenada a la oscuridad
Ausencia de dios, decadencia y perversion
Reino del hombre, hostilidad y autodestruccion
Viviendo en su perpetua enfermedad
Una raza desviada victima de su propia maldad
Odio encarnado, poder, traicion y ambicion
Ser aprisionado su soberbia es su perdicion
Hijos de la miseria negacion de la misma verdad
I'm just a child
In an aging world
Ready to explode
To fuck you all
Exiled
Alien
Outcast
I'm the enemy
Every mothers fear
Too young to die
Too old to care
Exiled
Alien
Outcast
Chorus:
Look at me
What i've become
Hersey
I'll bow to none
(repeat chorus)
Lighting up the sky
In a burning rage
Being crushed alive
By the wheels of fate
Sniffing through the dirt
Seeking inspiration
Saying my last prayer
To a loaded gun
Have i gone insane
What am i saying
Chasing my own tail
Like a dog on cocaine
Vomiting words
To relive the pain
Shooting my shadow
Before it gets real
Laughing in your face
Then i disappear
Have i gone insane
What am i saying
Crawling through depression
A shape without a form
A life locked senselessly
A brain that's dead and gone
Waiting on the bottom
The key to your release
The dose fits your dependency
Sliming through your teeth
Incoming
It's up to you
He's talking
And tells you what to do
Ride the worm
Ride the worm
Double blurred vision
Distorted point of view
Shedding inhibitions
Tomorrow's back and blue
Driven by aggression
When the worms is by your side
Leading you to outlive
The things that you'll deny
Infectious
Cause of your kind
Obnoxious
The mirror of your mind
Incoming
It's up to you
He's laughing
and leaves you when you're through
Ride the worm
Rejection, deception
World of distrust
Division, confusion
Blinded and lost
The blame of ignorance
The weight of misery
The threat of violence
The guilt of life
Aggression, submission
Crawl through the dirt
Violation, alienation
World of hurt
The blame of ignorance
The weight of misery
The threat of violence
The wrong time, the wrong place,
Our smiling face of distruct.
Buried, the seed deep in all our heads.
Prepared ourselves for the fall.
The greed killing!
Instinct to mistruct,
Instinct - the lust.
Their butchery of feelings,
geared for the greed killing.
The greed killing!
The lust denied is need [x5]
Existence is a steady flow,
the moulded image grows.
No core, no faith in what you are,
the pressure builds right from the start.
The lust denied the need [x5]
Could it be just sour grapes?
Or have we failed to fit their shape?
It's always give, and never take.
How much can we give?
How much can we take?
Passion and suffering
A thousand deaths
I've diead before
Leper, pariah
Fallen from grace
Carry the cross
New life arise from pain
[Chorus]
Reborn, I rise
From the ashes of time
Beaten and scared
I walked through hell
And I saw god
Rotten black heart
Spit it out, tear it apart
New life arise from pain
[Chorus]
As I walk through the shadow
Of the valley of death, I see no light
But the flames of hate
Like phoenix from the ashes
I return to this world, wounds healed
Information
Penetration
Alienation
No resistance
Passive victims
Violation
Shape a conscience
Shape a country
Create power
Imposition
Inquisition
Once again
[Chorus:]
Force Fed
Propaganda
Force Fed
Ignorance
Infiltration
Domination
Cold white room
Stench of death
Why are we here
Nobody knows
Faceless
Uniformed
Dehumanized
chorus:
Why am i here
In this nightmare within
Why am i here
In this life in this skin
Senseless ritual
Meaningless Moves
Empty faces
Hollow Eyes
Faceless
Uniformed
Dehumanized
(Chorus)
Set me free
Let me be
Set me free
Let me be
(Chorus x 2)
Set me free
Let me be
Set me free
Mi nombre es vicio , angustia azote
Entre a este pais sin pasaporte
He acumulado cerros de dinero
Gente muerta, botada en las calles
Soy mas cotizado que los diamantes
Soy mas apreciado que el mismo oro
Usame tan solo una vez
Y tu tambien te hundiras
El azote
El azote
Recuerda mi amigo, mi nombre es acote
Pruebame y pierde tu libertad
He destruido a santos y heroes
He hecho de la muerte algo comun
Hare al estudiante olvidar los libros
Hare de tu madre una prostituta
Hare al maestro olvidar la ensenanza
Hare al predicador negar a dios
In cold blood the deed is done
Sparked by fear and desperation
Np remorse, the soulless one
Living life in disarray
Sink into reckless abandon
Mind blacked out, spiritual void
No remorse, no emotions
Blood is frozen in your veins
Coming back to haunt
The ghost of the undead
Never laid to rest
Forever Punishment
Punishment - For all your sins
Punishment - The martyr weeps
Punishment - Purgatory begins
Punishment - Crime and punishment
Mental scars, time won't heal
Guilt corrodes you conscience
Cleanse the blood from you hands
Modern-day alchemy
Miracle technology
Mankind's vanity
To control the elements
Catastrophic sinergy
Circumstances collide
Fate rears it's ugly head
The infallible fails
Play with fire
You'll get burnt
One step from the nuclear abyss
Play with fire
You'll get scorched
Hell awaits at the flick of a switch
A silent killer
Is riding the wind
Penetrating cells
The structures of life
Invisible collapse
Irreversible decay
Everything it'll touch
Shall return to dust
Play with fire
You'll get burnt
One step from the nuclear abyss
Play with fire
You'll get scorched
Hell awaits at the flick of a switch
At the threshold of doom
A recipe for disaster
The ghost we summoned
Can't be driven away
At the threshold of doom
One-way street to extinction
The ghost we summoned
Is here to stay
The ghost we summoned
Can't be driven away
The ghost we summoned
Is here ro stay
Living under an imminent threat
On the verge of disaster
Seconds away from annihilation
Through our own device
Holding on the foolish belief
Of our relative safety
Forced to face the unspeakable
Armageddon unleash
At the threshold of doom
A recipe for disaster
The ghost we summoned
Can't be driven away
At the threshold of doom
One-way street to extinction
The ghost we summoned
Is here to stay
The ghost we summoned
Hidding in the dark
Of consecrated halls
Lurks the abomination
The foul touch of god
Innocence betrayed
The sacred bond of trust
Desecrated
The feed the urge repressed
Condemmed to shame
Guilt and salf-hate
Ridiculed and vilified
Discredited and blamed
Forgive me father
For you have sinned
Understand the flesh is weak
And the devil lives in it
Vows of silence
veil of lies
Vows of silence
Gag their cries
Slaves of celibacy
Reveling in sodomy
They live in denial
At the rituals of abuse
Unholy covenant
To protect their filthy kind
Vows of silence
Their cries will not be heard
Vows of silence
veil of lies
Vows of silence
Gag their cries
Vows of silence
veil of lies
Vows of silence
Gag their cries
Holy hand
Corrupted flesh
Defiled lamb
Forever scarred
Vows of silence
veil of lies
Vows of silence
Perpetual, it's brother against brother
Terminal, endemic social disease
Fatal spiral of violence
Programmed to prey upon the weak
The writing's on the wall
The sin is in us all
Sow the hate
Reap the pain
On and on
We are sons of Cain
Sow the hate
Reap the pain
On and on
We are sons of Cain
Primal, instinctive drive to kill
Criminal, denied morality
Animal, only the strong survive
Perpetual, as old as time itself
The writing's on the wall
The sin is in us all
Sow the hate
Reap the pain
On and on
We are sons of Cain
Sow the hate
Reap the pain
On and on
We are sons of Cain
Through the ages the seed was sown
Our contempt for peace has grown
Dead-end road of annihilation
Only one way to go which is down
As it's written so shall it be done
Fratricide, genocide, total war
Ashen remains of civilization
Only one way to go which is down
Perpetual, it's brother against brother
Terminal, endemic social disease
Fatal spiral of violence
Programmed to prey upon the weak
Sow the hate
Reap the pain
On and on
We are sons of Cain
Sow the hate
Reap the pain
On and on
Strange ways lead us into
An early demise
Insane creed of destruction
Denail of life
Spiritual self-mutilation
Worshipping death
Drown in a sea of frustration
Cult of Baphomet
Life's mysterious ways
Fathomless realms
The Answers that we chase
Lie down in the depths
New life screaming for freedom
Chained to the past
Cast into pits of damnation
Driven by hate
False truths written in blood
Of and orphaned child
Sucked inte and abyss of failure
Purgatory inside
Life's mysterious ways
Fathomless realms
The Answers that we chase
Lie down in the depths
We are the children of pain
We walk throught hell
We are the children of pain
We are insane
Strange ways lead us into
An early demise
Insane creed of destruction
Denial of life
Drinking the snake's poison
Elixir of youth
We choose the path we walk on
Cross, crescent, David's star
Symbols of eternal war
Fighting, killing, dying for
A non existent god
Every race the chosen one
To sacrifice their sons
In the name of ancient lies
The size of a cathedral
I stand defiant
Bow to no god
Unmask the liars
The merchants of blood
Die for religion
Into the void
Back into obscurity
Truth a rare commodity
Freedom the first casualty
Of your genocidal quest
Where is love that you preach?
Forgotten, our of reach
Contradicting gospel
To disguise your prejudice
I stand defiant
Bow to no god
Unmask the liars
Religious scum
Die for religion
Into the void
I am infidel
Spare me your everlasting hell
Spare me your fucking fairytale
I am infidel
Cross, crescent, David's star
Symbols of eternal war
Fighting, killing, dying for
A non existent god
Every race the chosen one
To sacrifice their sons
In the name of ancient lies
The size of a cathedral
I stand defiant
Bow to no god
Unmask the liars
The merchants of blood
Die for religion
Into the void
Beheading the beast
The souls of the dead shall rise
Craving their vengeance
The final confrontation
A nation in chaos
A casualty of history
Hostage to the course of time
Ideologies obsolete
A thousand heads
Growing on the wounded hydra
A thousand heirs
Claim the empty throne
All-out war
To perpetuate their reign
Drowning in violence
They reap what they have sown
Gates of chaos open wide
Justice done for those who died
Atonement for genocide
Tyrannicide
A new reign of terror
Casts it's shadow
The pendulum swings
Equilibrium shattered
Open the floodgates of rage
Unleash a tide of blood
Behold their furious vengeance
Judgement day has come
Gates of chaos open wide
Justice done for those who died
Atonement for genocide
Times of unrest
A war of nerves
The smell of danger in the air
Tension builds
On violent streets
Detonation by a spark
Provocation
Retaliation
Unerground resistance breeds
Misinformation
Vilification
Invoke perpetual state of siege
The end of faith
The death of trust
Oppressors besieged by the opressed
By the opressed
What is the price of peace?
Unconditional surrender?
What is the prince of piece?
Thw wolf herding the sheep?
A voice on air
Another atrocity
Toture tactics
Politics of deceit
Times of unrest
A war of nerves
Invoke perpetual state of siege
The end of faith
The death of trust
Oppressors besieged by the opressed
Walls close in on me
Paralyzed by fear
Claustrophobic reality
Breed the menace
Create the enemy
Every face on every street
Threatening our very being
Lurking ready to attack
Waiting for that final blast - Jihad!
Paranoia
Phobia
Walls close in on me
Paralyzed by fear
Claustrophobic reality
Crave the menace
Embrace the enemy
Is this your new world order?
Paradigm shift
is this your new world order?
Paradigm shit
Weapons of mass deception
Shadows of a global threat
Cannot fodder for religion
Pouring fuel into the flames
Paranoia
A war lost from the start
For no one escapes the bite
Police and government
All under the infleunce
Endless supply of fresh meat
For the killing machine
Fenerations gone to waste
Procreation of the damned
The power of the dog
The power of the dog
Third-world commodity
Grown on blood and misery
Always ready to provide
For the first world's appetite
The power of the dog
Trascends all frontiers
The power of the dog
Permeates every wall
The power of the dog
Every man's fot a price
The power of the dog
Corrupting all
The power of the dog
Selling pleasure to the world
The power of the dog
Dead bodies pave it's way
The power of the dog
A fight you cannot win
The power of the dog
Their whole world collapsing
Disappearing around them
In front of their eyes
Their lives washed away
Unspeakable menace
Tempting chaos and panic
Toxic clouds of fear
The future obscured
Cathartic devastation
Cataclysmic purification
Order from chaos
Arising
Order from chaos
Growing on barren earth
Orden from chaos
Emerging
Order from chaos
Spawing new life from death
No ruling hand
No divine command
Just inner strenght
In the face of death
Like and insect swarm
Programmed to survive
No life matters more
No life worth less
Cathartic devastation
Cataclysmic purification
Order from chaos
Arising
Order from chaos
Growing on barren earth
Orden from chaos
Emerging
Order from chaos
Spawing new life from death
A chain as strong
As it's weakest link
Lives interwined
Pushed to the brink
When the smoke has cleared
And the waters retreat
A burning sun rising
Resurrection complete
Peace from war
Strength from defeat
Wisdom from pain
Order from chaos
Light from dark
Hope from fear
Lifre from death
Order from chaos
Order from chaos
Arising
Order from chaos
Growing on barren earth
Orden from chaos
Emerging
Order from chaos
Voracious behemoths
Ravage the land
Consuming all in their reach
Oblivious to suffering
They plow on ahead
Through the soil, the air and the sea
Widespread misery
Down the path of no return
They've only one goal
The profits of doom
But those who laugh last, laugh alone
Driven by greed
Trampling the weak
No mercy, no remorse
Poisoned seeds
Mutated breeds
Progress at any cost
Resistance is futile
Embedded agents
Silence the cries
Of those who dare raise their voice
Irrational mission To crush is not an option
Where will they feast
On their magnificent wealth
When the whole world burns
Life on earth
A thing of the past
And those who laugh fast, laugh alone
Driven by greed
Trampling the weak
No mercy, no remorse
Poisoned seeds
Mutated breeds
Progress at any cost
Resistance is futile
You have the right to remain silent
You have the right to remain dead
New rulers of the world
Watch upon us
Soldiers of the new regime
Walk among us
Voracious behemoths
Ravage the land
Consuming all in their reach
Oblivious to suffering
They plow on ahead
Through the soil, the air and the sea
Widespread misery
Down the path of no return
They've only one goal
The profits of doom
But those who laugh last, laugh alone
Driven by greed
Trampling the weak
No mercy, no remorse
Poisoned seeds
Mutated breeds
Progress at any cost
Serpent goddess, mother of sin
Perfect drug, scent of perdition
Final fortune, embrace of damnation and death
Take my hand
Lead me into
Gardens of eden
Or sulphur and flames
Snake eyes, can't avoid their sight
Sweet caress, irresistible drive
Temptation
The forbidden fruit
Intoxication
With eternal youth
All lies, the vows that you make
Deny the rules that you break
Temptation
The forbidden fruit
Intoxication
With eternal youth
Eyes of temptation
Embrace of damnation and death
Snake eyes, can't avoid their sight
Sweet caress, irresistible drive
Temptation
The forbidden fruit
Intoxication
Some pray to a deity
The great lie in the sky
Some live for god money
The worst of our kind
Some seek only pleasure
Entertained 'til they die
Some fall into insanity
Trapped inside their minds
Feel the void
Face the darkness
No sense of purpose
No meaning to life
Feel the void
Face the darkness
Don't look for truth
In a world of lies
Some follow the rules
Never questioning why
Some believe they can change the world
The will die as they try
Some fear the shadow of death
Some hope for an afterlife
Some know there's no answer
Some embrace suicide
Feel the void
Face the darkness
No sense of purpose
No meaning to life
Feel the void
Face the darkness
Don't look for truth
In a world of lies
Feel the hole in your soul
Feel the void
Feel the void
Face the darkness
No sense of purpose
No meaning to life
Feel the void
Face the darkness
Don't look for truth
The memory lingers on when you were the same as us.
three months old a child, still you lived off love and fuss.
City baby, city baby, city baby attacked by rats.
Residing in a squalid place, it can't be too much fun.
your brain is getting eaten away by the rat living in your skull.
A mutant at the age of one, a human rodent cabbage.
I see black of the future of mankind
No redemption in sight
One step closer to the abyss
Never looking back
Down the path of self immolation
Suicidal breed
History repeats itself
Circle of insanity
[Chorus]
The root of all evil
Original sin
The root of all evil
Unrelenting enemy within
The root of all evil
A primitive drive
The root of all evil
Unrepenting demon inside
Jesus christ had a moment of doubt
For the flesh is weak
We would trade a minute of pleasure
For life in eternity
Deliver us into temptation
It's our cross to bear
Absolution just an illusion
We're forever enslaved
Welcome to
The edge of the world
Where life is cheap
And hope is lost
Welcome to
The land god forgot
Where time stands still
As darkness falls
We're falling away
Welcome to
A soil soaked in blood
Laughing, mourning
Killing time
Welcome to
A land with no soul
The past denied
The future black
We're falling away
An accident of creation
North of hell
Lies the land god forgot
Welcome to
A country bled dry
Vultures circle
In the sky
Welcome to
The desert of life
Decay rules
The land of lies
We're falling away
We're falling away
Over the edge of reality
An accident of creation
North of hell
Break the silence
Utopia screams
Bring forth the nightmare
Crush the dreams
Terror
Death from below
Terror
Underground war
Payed the price
Blood on your hands
A subversive savior
No one understands
Terror
Death from below
Terror
Underground war
Blood on your hands
Blood on your hands
Blood on your hands

Sucking Your Trust

I sit upon
An ornamented throne
In front of those
Who celebrate I'm gone
My eyes of glass
Witness the twisted mass
They dance in joy
I'm ignorance's toy
Pure child
Immaculate
Cold, white
And innocent
I give release
From life in pain
I am idol
I am their hope
I'm dead
Fanatic
Ecstatic
Obsessed
Blessed with death
Stench of mortality
My body rots away
They boil my flesh
Prolonged decay
Extending this insanity
Fanatic
Ecstatic
Obsessed
Urge takes over will
Consciousness entombed
That what makes you strong
Becomes your greatness weakness
Slave Master
Slave Master
Pleasure in oblivion
Life slowly erased
No past no future
A second somewhere else
Slave Master
Slave Master
Fragile lives destroyed
Seeking isolation
No love to save
Your ways of domination
Slave Master
Maddened eyes
Of souls that bleed
A frozen view
Of the decaying breed
Life has become
A sad joke
A game of fools
A drowning stone
[Chorus]
Downwards
On it goes
A mindless race
To nowhere
On it goes
The ground is burning
Heaven is red
The blood is flowing
The seas are dead
Bizarre landscape
By a maniac God
Chaos reigning
As time runs out
[chorus]
Self proclamed deity
Drowning in insanity
Descending spiral agony
Endless hole of misery
Dreams of immortality
Shattered by reality
Silence gonna fill the air
Louder than life itself
Sinking into
A certain doom
The cradle of life becomes
A bloody tomb
Everthing's falling
This is the end
Structures collapsing
Your little life is erased
Everyone's dying
You thought you were safe
How could it happen
Your dream of life was
Betrayed
Decay
Corrosion
Downfall
Oblivion
Time to wake up
There's No way back
It's you and it's me
And it's us
None to blame
Makes no sense
Downward we go now
We Burn
Burn
Burn
I deny the system of hypocrisy and greed
Diarrhea of empty words from faces on a screen
Forcing people to support a fake democracy
Filling their pockets feeding off our people's misery
I deny
Organized religion opium of the mass
Promising eternal life, reality is death
Ruled by a morality made up to keep us blind
Centuries of fear to keep the power of their kind
I deny
I deny authority of a uniform
No rights, no freedom, brute force the only law
Obeying the dictations of an invisible state
Persecution violence sowing seeds of brothers hate
Ask yourself
Ever put your faith
In a machine
Ever prayed to silicon
Or a static screen
Science as a guiding light
Will not shine eternally
Down with technology
And what little
Future i see
Chorus:
We have failed
Addicted
Dependent
Enslaved
Ask Yourself
Ever regressed
To a remote past
At Rudimentary Altars
Adoring primitive gods
Where is your strenght now
Your instintct to survive
Is there hope for us
With machines ruling
Our Lives
(Chorus x 2)
Dark time
Black out
Fighting the urge to sleep
Chemically deep
Chorus:
Tear apart
Show you all
The other side
The dark half
New image
For mankind
Playing god
replacing god
(Chorus)
Now you will see
What i've become
Twisted circuitry
Mockery of god
Skin and bone
Mind of stone
Artificially born
You broke my wings
Before i could fly
D.N.A Fails
With this fading life
Given it all
Now i've nothing left
See you in hell
Recreation
of your vision
Living flesh
Manipulation
(Chorus)
Tied and nailed piece of flesh
Tormented new object
Incision, merciless
Scientific bloodshed
Christ pose looks grotesque
Martyrized, innocent
Novelty, dismemberment
Insensible and decadent
[Chorus]
Crucified - pay for our vanity
Crucified - urge our insanity
Crucified - die for humanity
Crucified
Deep cut into life
Scalpel, murder knife
Consciously reviled
Instrument of spite
No release, end delayed
Sadism the human way
Constant slow decay
Running red life slips away
[chorus]
Scapegoat bleeding thing
Provoked suffering
Senseless inhumane
Another life is spent in vain
Tied and nailed and ripped apart
Work is done, morbid art
Painful death, so absurd
Cries of pain were never heard
Digital eyes
Scanning your lives
Through the walls
Into the minds
Watching your moves
No place to hide
Analized
Scrutinized
Tyranny
Of technology
You're connected
You're detected
Hidden powers
A cruel device
Merciless
Progress
[Chorus:]
Control
Big brother watching you
Control
We are what we own
A faceless crowd
Our collective soul
Sold cheap
Beliving what we see
Hero Mentality
Generation Of human sheep
Slaves of the machine
Material beings
These prefab indentities
Subconscious tyranny
Domination
Money idolatry
Chorus:
Rotten to the core
Drowing in our wealth
We still want more
Consumed or de consumed
Exploitation
Conscience erased
Progress at any cost
Worthless lives
Sacrificed
For the chosen few
Life is greed
Greed breeds guilt
Guilt is bought and sold
Disintegrating minds
Dead inside
Still we think we're alive
(Chorus)
Consume or consumed
Bloodshed starts twisting and raging
Driven by dirt hidden inside
Fear turns to hatred the core depraved
Desperate people ready to join the lines
Oppose
Divide
Confront
Collide
Far from regret intolerant, enraged
Self justified
Their bloody slogans fuel the hate
And all that's left is dead bodies for the flies
Oppose
Divide
Confront
Collide
Diseased machinery, blinded masses
Still upholding the cruel and insane
A vicious circle clouds their minds
And no one will ever stop their violent reign
Oppose
Divide
Confront
Collide
Cancerous
Widespread
Religious Disease
Brainwash
Ignorance
Controlling the weak
Twisted Messages
Forgotten Meaning
Close Minded
Intolerant
2,000 years of hate and lies
Freedom denied
Blind leading the blind
Hatred
In disguise
Fuego en los ojos
El rostro deforme
No existe el dolor
Muerdo fuerte
No hablo por miedo
A perder la razon
Caer
Subyugado
Ceder
Desahuciado
Vivir
Sentenciado
Morir
Entregado
El cuerpo se enfria
No siento nada
Solo privacion
Alma muerta
Stabbed in the back
Betrayed a thousand times
Never surrendered
I've risen above the dirt
[Chorus:]
Alone
Insane
Alive
Rising
Above
Beyond
Spat at and mocked
Hatred my driving force
Fly while they crawl
They can't touch me now
[Chorus...]
Restless life
I created and destroyed
Can't stop at all
Genocide
Accident
Terminal Disease
Amputation
Epidemic
Inbred Families
Life Is Rotten
Life Is Death
Don't you just love
Mankind?
Execution
Malformation
Suicide Attacks
Paralysis
Insanity
Prison Sex
Life Is Rotten...
Abortion
Cancer
Mass Murder
Mutilation
Massacre
Necrophilia
No time for innocence
A child raised in hate
Scarred by violence
A youth betrayed
Mind raped and twisted
Ghosts will never fade
Traumatic awakening
Growth is decay
[chorus]
Psycho
Son of hate
Life is worth nothing
In tortured eyes
Empty surroundings
A word of lies
Wasted existence
Of one victimized
Life despised, Life denied
Live through homicide
[chorus]
Triggered aggression
Destroy to purify
Violent catharsis
Apocalypse inside
Driven by the vision
Of those who die
Life despised, life denied
Live through homicide
Rising up
Tearing down
What you are
Threatening
Never seen
All around
Every face
Every eye
Watching you
Weakening
Grip of pain
Won't let go
All that you see
All that you hear
All that you feel
All that you fear
Pressure [x6]
Paranoid
Self destroyed
Sickened mind
Burning up
Torn to shreds
From inside
Desperate
Cannot stand
The distress
Helpless
Hopeless
Lifeless
All that you see
All that you hear
All that you feel
All that you fear
Hatred rising, hatred of your kind
Reasons denied and your soul lies dead inside
No salvation
Dig your own grave
No salvation
Faith collapsing blind eyes for suffering
Like a cancer, greatest plague ever seen
No salvation
Dig your own grave
No salvation
Enslaved
No salvation
Dig your own grave
No salvation
Enslaved
Freedom falling enslaved by helplessness
Fear destroying all hope for redemption left
No salvation
Dig your own grave
No salvation
Stigmatized, unlike anyone of you
I'm a stranger, anyplace I go
Scarred for life, down to the core
Never regret, never repent
Hate makes me stronger
In my personal war
Poisoning my blood
Raging within
This fire is burning
Under my skin
If I bleed, my blood is for my own
No futile creed, shall pollute my soul
Flesh of the weak
Feeds that machine
Never accept, never submit
Hate makes me stronger...
Show no remorse, But If I ever do
I'll hate myself, more than I hate you
Scarred for life, an open sore
Never regret, never repent
Ancient gos demonized
Hope replaced by fear
Craving for power unfulfilled
The world on bended knees
Blood-stained stone church of hate
Knowledge oblitterated
Burnt flesh, peeled off skin
Hell on earth you bring
[Chorus]
The curse on your hands
The faith to kill
Because all you touch
Turns into filth
Centuries in the dark
The scars you left won't heal
A rotten soul infects your breath
Your holy rubbish stinks
Buried deep lies the truth
Hidden, unrevealed
From holy smoke a cloud of white sinister puppet rise
[Chorus x2]
Cornered
Like an animal
No escape
Backs against the wall
Survival
Instinct suffocated
Face the threat
Time ticking away
[Pre-chorus:]
Extreme conditions
Extreme response
About to snap
Patience burning low
No life to spare
When it's theirs or your own
Dead end
Only one way left
Pent-up rage
Exploding in your face
[Pre-chorus:]
[Chorus]:
Time bomb
Time bomb
Time bomb
Time bomb
Cornered
Like an animal
No escape
Backs against the wall
Reflex
Action and reaction
Outa my way
Or I'll take you all down
[Pre-chorus]
Point the finger
Quick to judge
You don't know
Where I come from
Prejudiced from the start
Bastardised morale
Drenched in sanctimony
Two-faced preacher of hate
Arrogance
Blinds your eyes
Blood and guilt
Stain your hands
Ignorant from the start
Bastardised morale
Self righteous cunt
Predator unleashed
Devastate without mercy
No respect for life
Self-centered new deity
Heritage of death
No future, no memory
Humanity
Supremacy
The future is a desert land
Play god
Promised land erased
Wasted soil incinerate
Inferior creatures
Useless life exterminate
Creator, tyrant
Twisted race perpetuate
Humanity
Supremacy
The future is a desert land
Self inflicted pain
A wasted life
A restless soul insane
No Return
Gone too far
No one else left to blame
Chorus:
Fade Away
Die AWAY
From this life of misery
Fade Away
Die Away
Only death will make you free
Once i was free
Savage and ready to kill
In my blood
All the tides
Of all times gone by
(Chorus)
Distorted shadows
Memories haunt me
Tormented faces
Demons surround me
Life still alive
New Days are bleeding
The skies
No Return
No regrets
Until the end of my
Times
Primitive nature of man
Violent
Hatred building within
Opressed
Powerless slaves of the state
Controlled
Sudden explosion of hate
Revolt
Release from authority
Into savagery
[Chorus]
Rage - Fear - hate
No world order
Rage - Fear - hate
New disorder
Years of repressed grief
Diseased
Wars for race and belief
Unleashed
Blind leading the blind
Anarchy
Suffocating the land
Misery
Release from authority
Into savagery
Years of hatred poisoned lives
Defend, blinded, desensitized
Open wounds never heal
Cancer grows within
Dying nation in confrontation
Reckless nation, nation of hate
Breathe aggression infest the air
Violent regression to primal fear
Open wounds never heal
Cancer grows within
Dying nation in confrontation
Reckless nation, nation of hate
Lies collapsing
Rage sets in chain reaction, indistinct
Open wounds never heal
Cancer grows within
Dying nation in confrontation
Roamind the streets
The city of dead souls
Lambs to the slaughter
Procession
21st century fratricide
Concrete inferno
Spiritual void
[Chorus]
In necropolis
You´re walking dead-dead-dead
Wake up and rise
From the dead-dead-dead
Kill your Gods!
Programmed to produce
Slave to survive
Machines of flesh and blood
Follow illusions
Of paradise lost
Faith only keeps you alive
New life
New Blood
The urge rages
Deep inside
Nothing's true
All is lies
Got to server
Mental ties
Chorus:
Forget what you believe
Break those chains
Destruction of the past
Violent Change
No gods
No masters
The pain within
Feeds your strength
Love to hate
Destroy to create
Build on ruins
Of old faith
Girl, you really got me now
you got me so i don't know what i'm doin'
girl, you really got me now
you got me so i can't sleep at night
girl, you really got me now
you got me so i don't know where i'm goin',

girl, you really got me now
you got me so i don't know where i'm goin', yeah
oh yeah, you really got me now
got me so i can't sleep at night
you really got me
you really got me
Blindfolded
Isolated from reality
Force fed lies
Truth too black to see
Victimized
Victimized
Paranoid
Alone among enemies
Tension builds
Menace and hostility
Victimized
Victimized
Uncertainty
No end for this suffering
Tormented
Truth too black to see
Victimized
Different, Indifferent
No will to change
Destructive, negative
Life runs insane
Pessimist, nihilist
Live against life
Senseless, useless
Comedy of strife
[Chorus]
Low life still alive
And low life still a life
But even worse
Heresy, blasphemy
Do I need god?
Misery, disease
He needs me not
Breathing, feeling
Chaos above
Morbid, sordid
Manic void
[chorus]
Torture, torment
Tearing me apart
Hatred, Rage
A rotten heart
Repressive, aggressive
Walls of human flesh
Terminal criminal
Artist of death
Twelve years and nothing to lose
Violence a way of life
Don't care for the future
Cut reality with a knife
Life is worth nothing
Desensitized from pain
No right or wrong for me
Live to kill day after day
[Pre-chorus]
No turning back
When you cross that lione
Say a prayer for my soul
For Mary knows what I do
"virgin of assassins
Help me make it through"
Always wear the scapulars
On my wrist for aim
On my heart to save my life
On my ankle to escape
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
Feel the knife
In your heart
It makes me god
Sicario
Rite of initiation
First cold blooded kill
Fell a rush of blood
A macabre thrill
Rise up to super human
Cross to the other side
The trail of blood I'll follow
I'm leaving life behind
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus x2]
Twelve years and nothing to lose
Violence a way of life
Don't care for the future
Cut reality with a knife
Rise up to super human
Cross to the other side
The trail of blood I'll follow
I'm leaving life behind
[Pre-chorus]
Through valleys
And mountains
Decisive campaign
Forces moving
Towards their aim
Target weak spots
Resistance breaks
Bio-weapon stockpiles
Spitting their hate
Invade penetrate
Move in fast
Intrude infiltrate
Defenses collapse
Blood filled trenches
Troops endeterred
Toxic fumes fill the air
The stench of death
[Bridge]
One on one fighting
Battle is racing
Both sides are mourning
The end is coming
[Chorus]
The end of the game
You're shot in the face
[Chorus]
Ambushed from behind
Dying in the mud
Heads split open
Gushing with blood
Comrades brothers
Die in your hands
Last man standing
Clean up the mess
[Bridge]
State of dependence, Chemical Womb
Artificial euphoria, is life in a tomb
[chorus]
Self destruction
Insane
Life collapsing
In Pain
Deterioration, flesh weakening
A vicious circle, sucking you in
[chorus]
I am your body hungry for more
I am your mind's dead interior
I am your blessing and your condemnation
I am your god, like a shot from a gun
Razors edge
Outlines the dead
Incisions in my head
Anticipation the stimulation
To kill the exhilaration
Close your eyes
Look deep in your soul
Step outside yourself
And let your mind go
Frozen eyes stare deep in your mind as you die
Close your eyes
And forget your name
Step outside yourself
And let your throughts drain
As you go insane...go insane
Innate seed
To watch you bleed
A demanding physical need
Desecrated eviscerated
Time perpetuated
Close your eyes
Look deep in your soul
Step outside yourslef
And let your mind go
Frozen eyes stare deep in your mind as you die
Close your eyes and forget your name
Step outside yourself and let your thoughts drain
As you go insane...go insane
Inert flesh
A bloody tomb
A decorated splatter brightens the room
An execution a sadist ritual
Mad intervals of mind residuals
Close your eyes
Look deep in your soul
Step outside yourself
And let your mind go
Frozen eyes stare deep in your mind as you die
Close your eyes and forget your name
Step outside yourself and let your thoughts drain
[Music & Lyrics: Reisenegger]
Mocked Insane Marginal man
Mirror of your lowest drive
Antichrist
I carry the weight I am denial of your life
Scapegoat
Scapegoat
Segregate show me your hate
It's never too much to bear
You can't face taking my place
I crossed the limits of fear
Scapegoat
Scapegoat
I suffer for you
I suffer for you
Mocked Insane Marginal Man
Target of power and control
Antichrist
Been crucified raped my mind and my soul
Scapegoat
Scapegoat
I suffer for you
Grotesque show
Of sadism and pain
War rages
The world has gone insane
Desperation
Prime time entertainment
Inhuman plague
No words can explain
Savagery
Savagery
Children cry
Innocence is raped
Destruction
Ruthless and absurd
Leaders speak
No words will wake the dead
Gathering
The war to celebrate
Savagery
Parts of a machine
Modern day slavery
Dehumanizing control
Wasted lives fading
Sick Society System
Sick Society System
System of survival
Construction of no future
Growing mass frustration
Crushing all resistance
Sick Society System
Sick Society System
Sick Society System
Senses saturated
Feelings mutilated
Will to live castrated
Inner self hated
Sick Society System
Sick Society System
Sick Society System
These days are deranged
We're zombies to the system
Like monkeys in a cage
Cause these days when all we are, are rats in a maze
I'm sick of just a cookie, I want some fucking cake
And I said 'Hey! What a thought?!'
I know it might sound crazy but I think the magic in this world is away
No doubt I'm claiming that the magic in this world is stolen away with age
And I know it to be due in part to society
I'm finding it criminal that the magic in this world
Has long been jarred up in a bag
And stolen away with age
Just a little bit criminal
As the thief is disguised through the money and the lies til we find
We're being stolen away with age
(We're stolen away)
(We're stolen away)
We're stolen away
When black and white replaces grey
(We're stolen away)
And the child within is lead astray
And I said 'Hey! what a thought?!'
I know it might sound crazy but I think the magic in this world is away
(No doubt I'm claiming that the magic has long been chained)
No doubt I'm claiming that the magic in this world is stolen away with age
And I know it to be due in part to society
I'm finding it criminal that the magic in this world
Has long been jarred up in a bag
And stolen away with age
Just a little bit criminal
As the thief is disguised through the money and the lies til we find
We're being stolen away
We're stolen away
We're stolen away
We're stolen away
We're stolen away
We're stolen away
We're stolen away
And I said 'Hey! what a thought?!'
'Hey! what a thought?!'
I know it might sound crazy
'Hey! what a thought?!'
We're stolen away with age
And I know it to be due in part to society
I'm finding it criminal that the magic in this world
Has long been jarred up in a bag
And stolen away with age
Just a little bit criminal
As the thief is disguised through the money and the lies till we find
We're being stolen away
I've been a bad bad girl
I've been careless
With a delicate man
And it's a sad sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can
Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and
I want to
Suffer for my sins
I've come to you
'Cause I need
Guidance to be true
And I just don't know
Where I can begin
What I need is
A good defense
'Cause I'm feelin'
Like a criminal
And I need
To be redeemed
To the one
I've sinned against
Because he's all
I ever knew of love
Heaven help me
For the way I am
Save me from
These evil deeds
Before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings
The consequence at hand
But I keep livin' this day like
The next will never come
Oh help me but
Don't tell me to deny it
I've got to cleanse myself
Of all these lies till
I'm good enough for him
I've got a lot to lose
And I'm bettin' high
So I'm beggin' you
Before it ends
Just tell me where to begin
What I need
Is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin'
Like a criminal
And I need
To be redeemed
To the one
I've sinned against
Because he's all
I ever knew of love
Let me know the way
Before there's hell to pay
Give me room to lay
The law and let me go
I've got to make a play
To make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know
What I need
Is a good defense
'Cause I'm feelin'
Like a criminal
And I need
To be redeemed
To the one
I've sinned against
Because he's all
I ever knew of love
What I need is
A good defense
'Cause I'm feelin'
Like a criminal
And I need
To be redeemed
To the one
I've sinned against
Because he's all
up the rope i go
i'm not schoolboy
in the flurry of his first affair
i'm hardly sentimental sometimes
but in some special way
i've got to pay my rental and i can't afford
wasting too much time so i did some crime
i've build walls
and i'm drowning in confusion sometimes
like a boy with a nihilism toy
who will no one understand
is this real or am i abusing myself
i cannot seem to find the time
to crawl across the line
up the rope i go
one last dance for this dying man
walking tall and ignorant
this man is now a militant
i've build walls
and i'm drowning in confusion sometimes
like a boy with a nihilism toy
who will no one understand
is this real or am i abusing myself
i cannot seem to find the time
to crawl across the line
versteck dich in hamburg
i left you for dead
ich krieg dich in rendsburg
i split your bloody head
und ich fick dich in husum
i don't care who was right or wrong
hey mann ich find dich überall
und dann mach ich dich kaputt
Like a criminal.
Did you think it could be like on tv?
Where you could be big in your own movie?
Did real life let you down?
A genuine pygmalion.
Chorus:
(criminal) like a criminal.
(no) no good to anyone.
(foolish) gotta get a life and get sensible.
(no) no pity, no pardon.
Criminal. just like a criminal.
Could've been a factor.
Could've been another distracter.
Some like it in limousines, I like it in a tractor.
Solo, separate, not just one of a crowd.
Indifferent to compliment.
I leave my funeral ground.
Chorus
(criminal) like a criminal.
(no) no pity, no pardon.
Just a criminal.
Haven't got a clue.
Cannot comprehend anything you value.
I'm probably just like you.
Yes, I haven't got a clue.
Just let that judas goat lead you down that narrowing path.
As affluence is your influence.
You'll be of no consequence.
Chorus
(criminal) like a criminal.
(no) no pity, no pardon.
Yes, I haven't got a clue.
Just like a criminal.
I can not comprehend anything you value.
Probably just like you.
Yes, I haven't got a clue.
YEAH!
Looks like I'm doing time
Framed for another crime
Lost all my innocence
In shameless sin of a broken mind
But maybe I'm to blame
Cause things aren't gonna change
Held down and taken in
To hopeless life and pointless games
You lied, you lied to me
You went and blew my cover
You got away with murder
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
But you gave me the key
Whoa-oh
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
But you gave me the key
Would you say anything?
Give me some reasoning!
To why you stab me in the back
while I was covering
You for this stunt you pulled
Do you think I'm a fool?
I'll tell them everything to
keep my life and record clean
You lied, you lied to me
You went and blew my cover
You got away with murder
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
But you gave me the key
Whoa-oh
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
But you gave me the key
Whoa -oh
Gave me the key!
Whoa-oh
Bullets and enemies
Helmets and you me
Friend or future
Blaming it on the past
Shotguns and make believe
What you have become to me
Holding on to memories won't last
Your fame won't last!
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
Now I'm the criminal
But you gave me the key
Whoa-oh
I am the criminal
I am the criminal
I am the criminal
But you gave me the key
Now I'm the criminal
I am a criminal!
Now I'm the criminal
But you gave me the key
Whoa oh
Gave me the key
Whoa oh!
Ready, ready, ready, ready......
Tonight the moon hangs low
We walk it down on the country's death row
In clean clothes he stands too tall
You still heed the rebels call
With guns pressed against the wall
The man's a criminal
Shot rings out
Country shouts
His kind are animals
People stop
When this man drops
Stop the criminal
Shot rings out
Country shouts
His kind are animals
The people stop
This man drops
Stop the criminal
Criminal
I started out of town last night
Making my way to the border line
What is it that you want?
I ain't no animal
What is it that you want?
You know i'm not your criminal
Shot rings out
Country shouts
The mans a criminal
People stop
When this man drops
His kind are animals
Police man stops
When we drive
Are you a criminal?
The country stops
When this man drops
Stop the criminal
Criminal
Who's the shadow behind your door?
Was it my face you were looking for?
What is it that you want?
I ain't no animal
What is it that you want?
You know i'm not your criminal
People stop
When this man drops
His kind are animals
Shot rings out
His country shouts
Stop the criminal
Police man drop
When this man stop
We want no criminal
What you want
Our job is done?
His kind are animals
Criminal
Leaving waves of lies behind, no time to contemplate
Sailing ships of solitude, I never let the sadness dissipate
I leave behind an angry anchor
It’s never too late
I guess it’s in a time like this
The winds would blow the other way
Sailing through a sea of doubt, I have the time to contemplate
A world so harsh to face and lies so commonplace
We’re insecure ’cause we want more
What about the time before?
Was it ignorance? We said never again
I’m a criminal
I turn away when I know what’s going on
My children will ask me, “How did you ignore”
If you really don’t see, then open up your eyes
’Cause its glaring out in front of me
I’ll go by myself
I guess it’s in the times like these, when the winds are fake
When I wish we’d sail together, take these empty seas away
In a world so harsh to face and lies so commonplace
We’re insecure ’cause we want more
What about the time before?
Was it ignorance? We said never again
I threw a bottle in the air and it smashed into a thousand pieces on the concrete street,
where the children play in bare feet
We ran as fast as we could, cause I might have woke the neighborhood
Oh I don't feel too good, no I don't feel too good at all
Cause when the sun comes up and the children wake, get on the street to play,
I'll be the one to blame
I'm a criminal, I'm a criminal
It didn't last too long, no I passed out, woke up and the guilt was gone
Without a care I walk down the stairs, into the kitchen eat my breakfast there
Turn on the television screen,
Emergency News Team
Little girl crying on the street saying "glass made my feet bleed"
Oh tell me what am I gonna do
I'm for sure done
What am I gonna do,
I have no choice but to run
Change my name and move to Mexico
Dye my hair red and get surgery on my nose
Buy a small condo, stay low in Mexico
Don't it sound so sweet, get a wife and raise a family
Start my own limousine company
Stay low in Mexico
Hot, the skin burns like fire
But inside you're cold as ice
Wild desire's in my brain
Drives me insane
You, you took me under fire
The moment you were waiting for
Unprotected was my heart
You knew from the start
What seems to be
A body is just... a tool of seduction
She gives it for free (free free)
And then makes the kill you're a...
Criminal - Criminal
Criminal - A killer of love
All... things I have to face now
I see through your disguise
Ooh, but you can read my mind... anytime
What seems to be
A body is just... a tool of seduction
She gives it for free (free free)
And then makes the kill you're a...
Criminal - Criminal
Criminal - A killer of love
Criminal - Criminal
Criminal - You've stolen my mind
You've stolen my mind you're a...
Criminal - Criminal
Criminal - A killer of love
Criminal - Criminal
Criminal - You've stolen my mind
A killer of love
Criminal
Oh criminal tell me one thing
You're sickened by humanity
What have you to manage now?
You're one more casuality, I wake up
Won't you Sir take off your make up so we can see you?
I told it to you straight somehow
You didn't hear a thing
It's sad, what a shame
If the western world won't save you now
Then tell me what's your plan?
Will you fight to the end?
Say it, say it out loud
Say it again please, I cannot hear you
It's all lies and mediation
I feel manipulated these days, these days
You're back and forth, you lead us to this
It's only my entire life you banked on my friend
Oh my life's just hanging by a thread
But you played the whole way
Didn't you save me, save me
All that mattered to you was the cash
But you took us for a ride
