Desire To Fire Lyrics

We turn desire to fire
Electric sparks to the wire
Highered the stakes when we bought
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 sensimillo
Vodka and C-O-K-E
Is the real deal
Your flubber, never had to suffer
Life's getting hard
And it's only getting rougher

Save some for me
Cant's stop what we're 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 result 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
You tell, I don't know you?
Think I know you too well
You fell, and stumbled
Laughin' as you tumbled
I guess you forget
About the power we rock
Cause "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 we're going to be
Just watch as I demonstrate
the reason we dominate

Walk with me ,
And take this seed
A fire for you
So dare to fail
Will you

If we stand alone
And believe in whole
Would you tell me
It's all i believe in
Yes we stand alone
And believe in whole
And you tell me
It's all I believe in
Because we
We'll chew, and spit you, out
And prey upon the weaker
Take what we want

Walk with me ,
And take this seed
A fire for you
So dare to fail
Will you

The song can be seen as a call to action, with the overall theme of the song revolving around defying societal norms and embracing individuality, encouraging you to challenge conformity, take risks, and pursue your desires, even in the face of adversity.

The song can be seen as symbolic for Machine Head, saying how they defy mediocrity, reject complacency, and strive for a future defined by their own desires and choices. Robb Flynn saw this album's sound as the natural progression of the band, and didn't want to be stuck making the same album as the first two. He wanted not to be stuck by fan expectations and rehash the same material.

I think this song is Robb Flynns answer to teh people who complained that Machine Head had sold out. He is saying, ok, you don't like teh direction we have gone in, but don't knock us because we dared to try something new.

I'm not the biggest fan of the burning red/supercharger rap metal era. However, this song has the greatest breakdown in the history of music. Awesome tune.
