You have 7 more seconds to decipher your life
Before my tongue becomes a blade & your brain gets sliced
I warned you before I'm addicted to war
I was preying for armageddon on the day I was born

Incite & ignite
Cried my muse
Elevating IQ's as I enter the room

It's elemental
Defying gravity with these
Lyrical miracles & street philosophies

It's the chosen child
Destroying idols like a pentium

Processor, throw these rocks atcha
I be the queen weaving dreams with supreme lectures

Infect ya, lyrically dissect ya
I got control of your soul so no gods can protect ya

"you betcha" !
We can set ya free best believe that this tribe of mystery
Was born and bred to conceive

Brilliant galaxies of mind expanding poetry
Enemies know it's me, armed with mental weaponry

Ain't no testin' me, the tribe comes prepared to get live
You're just a drone to the hive, ain't no way you'll survive

Ravage
Vanquish
Mangle
Destroy

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

Ripped at the seams
I destroy galaxies

Word becomes flesh
I bring nations to its knees

So feel the blast as this broad casts
Out any doubt that real rhymes last

Its the voice of the apocalypse
The god of war

With Osiri's esophagus
An omnivore

Take you higher than the Krsna consciousness
From gotham to metropolis the lesser gods eradicates the obvious

We fight for all of us so get up off the ground
Weapon systems armed it's about to go down

IT'S FOR THE CROWN !

Ravage
Vanquish
Mangle
Destroy

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

Craven !

There will be blood
On my fists
On your face
On the ground around us

This is pain
Have to taste
I'm addicted to the rush

Of bruises & bloodstains
Dark god in my veins

I will hate it all away
No, nothing will remain

The enemy is me !
You weak, ineffectual plebe !

Even jesus worship me,
I bow down to none

Your little light is like a candle
Trying to outshine the sun

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

Inside my mind
Where heaven & hell collide
You won't survive
Suck !
& swallow your pride
Suck !
& swallow pride

No one gets out alive

The enemy is me
The enemy is me

Ministry
Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
