829 Lyrics

I am scared
I am scared
I am scared
I am scared
I am scared
I am scared
I am scared
I am scared

Pray, I said pray, I said pray, I said pray, I said pray, I said pray
Because
I think I'm scared of myself
My problems and faults
They lay upon a shelf
Bring it out with the shroom
I'm paranoid laying crouched in a room
I will pushing
Away from a love that is close to me
I'll go away
I need to be stable like my buddy with grey bell
Called up my mom
Cause I know she was strong
Talked about Jesus, my daddy, and bongs
Aside from the world that I know
People and whatnot and girls that do blow
Brought back to childhood
Not close to feeling good
Go away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I agree. They are a very kick ass band. Their music has content and it's catchy and it's hard and sometimes fast-paced. I like them alot since Infest.

Well i'll tell you, the inspiration for the song 829 (Old Friends From young Years) happened. Jacoby was working down at the Airforce hospital and he opened up a freezer and found a decapitated human head in there with no skin, it was removed for some students to learn about the muscles.

Anyway he finished work and took Magic Mushrooms for the first time and when he did he totally tripped out, he saw pictures of his dad crossed over with Jesus (because his dad also had long hair and a beard) and all his friends heads turned into dog heads and be tripped out like fuck.

Anyway, he called up Colleen (his mum) and she calmed him down ("Called up my mom cos i knew she was strong"), the next day i believe Jacoby wrote the song.

So there you guys a 20 year old Coby Dick wrote that song based on what happened 6 years ago TODAY in vacaville, now that's P-Roach history!
