Armageddon

Beginning of the end
This is Armageddon
Babylon is lost, zion is in flames
There will be no rapture and you will not be saved
Beginning of the end
This is Armageddon
The skies raining blood
There's ash in my lungs
There's no time to hide
Just lock your shit up
This tar full of toxins is dripping off my tongue
The ground's breaking open, this world is fucking done
Everyone fall to your knees (pray)
Swallow the fucking disease (ay)
Breathe the chemicals in, spit a cloud back
The fuck y'all believe? (plague)
I am the beast, I am flesh, I am fear
I'm the imagery that frightens
I am hell, I am here
Everything is crashing, the streets are paved with flame
There's brimstone and there's sulfur
And it's seeping into your brain
This is not the end, but it's how the end begins
And I can not remember having a single fuck to give
Beginning of the end
This is Armageddon
Babylon is lost
Zion is in flames
There will be no rapture
And you will not be saved

Freakz in Line

This is not a fucking test, this is not a dream, this is how it looks
The beginning of the Armageddon written in your books
It's the moment you've been dreading, steady counting down
The clock's ticking, laughing in your face
Because the minutes can't be stopped
It's a menace: menacing
If you can afford your medicine, then take a sedative
And let it all become repetitive
Let it ride, give in, be obedient to media
Believe in what you see and what they tell you's really real
Even though it's a fiction, fabrication, and exaggerated truth
Question every mother fucking thing you know until you get proof
Evidence is evidently in admissible
But we could prove beyond a shadow of a doubt this shit is criminal
You’ll never keep the freaks in line
I’m looking for anyone ready now to speak your mind
I wanna see those fists filling up the sky tonight
We know the future starts with us
Come along, take the red pill, swallow, follow deeper down the rabbit hole
Hit that Channel in between the channels, starting static
All erratic radicals are manufacturing the facts
And all the tools used to hatch a plan are hatchets in our backs
So relax, pull up a chair, fasten down the straps
Keep your eyes wide open and be shown a puppet act
Your opinion is important just so long as it's a match
In a system where most critical is massive ignorance
Another power holder shown a road of gold to mold a future with
In spite of all that's called to light and might condemn from innocence
You're free, well free-ish, this isn't for the squeamish
To wonder what the real fucking American Dream is
You’ll never keep the freaks in line
I’m looking for anyone ready now to speak your mind
I wanna see those fists filling up the sky tonight
We know the future starts with us
Wake up
You’ll never keep the freaks in line
I’m looking for anyone ready now to speak your mind
I wanna see those fists filling up the sky tonight
We know the future starts with us

I Don't Care

If you're laid back, hold up
Throw a fist up in the air
Shrug your shoulders up and down, like you don't know
Or don't care
The most indecisive person that you've ever met
Ask me if i ever, no i never did give a shit
Let me deliver this, straight to your ears kid
I gotta song and dance to show how many fucks i don't give
Bring it on
Ask me anything important
I'ma take the most round about way to give you the most generic answer to what you wanna know
And you're gonna think that i'm not being honest, but i don't give a damn at all and i promise
So when i get another question there, i shrug my shoulders like i don;t know or dont care
What do you want for lunch?
I don't care
Mixed berry or punch?
I don't care
Heavy metal or country?
I dont care
I'll bet you wanna punch me
Aim right here
And when i get up in a line for fast food
You know i take an hour to choose, i'm that dude
Sit at the drive through, look at the list
I don't really care if the guy behind me's pissed
Get up to the window, finally
Then i get the jack in the box bag in front of me
Take a bite of my food as i planned
This punk kid workin here spit in my sandwich
If you're laid back, hold up
Throw a fist up in the air
Shrug your shoulders up and down, like you don't know
Or don't care
Pick it up
When i drop it, when i get a mic i rock it, what kid?
Get a fist in the air for the saint lou
Get up in the game and i gotta let it play through
And when i get up in the blitz zone, it's on
Gotta get everyone movin to this song
Gets late in the day, so i slow down, then i get a question it's bout to go down
I don't care
What
I don't care
What
I don't care, you know i don't care
Open my mouth and i spout this
Potent like rogaine, i'll make you grow hair
I drop the beat and let the suckas meet defeat
I keep an open mind and seek to turn the meek to non believers
See it's not that i'm a lazy jerk
Just tht i don't care, but sure, there
May have been a day or two
It may have paid off just to choose
Never sang the blues in rhyme
Instead i had to waste my time
With all the rap and racket
All the heavy metal jiggs and tunes
I speed it up again like i laid on the gas
Another brother wanna slow it down, goin too fast
I'm not makin sense anymore
But i still don't give a fuck that's for sure
If you're laid back, hold up
Throw a fist up in the air
Shrug your shoulders up and down, like you don't know
Or don't care
Shrug your shoulders up and down and look to the left
Shrug your shoulders up and down and look to the right
Raise your fist up, drop it down low then snap a couple times, we'll be doin this all night
If you're laid back, hold up
Throw a fist up in the air
Shrug your shoulders up and down, like you don't know
Or don't care

Earthquake

Music is my form of release, you're bout to see
All emotion take over, explodin and start flowin free
Got a storm on my mind, been feelin obscene
Tryin to get people together if you feel what I mean
This is a song for being pissed
When you're down to raisin fists
Instead of hatin, put a tape in get it bouncin to this just
Get it up, get it up, stop
Pick it up pick it up drop
Get up in the spot we can go all night
There's some things in the world that will never go right
Let the speakers hum
Watch the mirrors vibrate
Get the whole place shakin, make it rock
Earthquake
Let the fire burn
We’re gonna fuel it all night
There’s some things in the world
That’ll never go right
Let up from the get up
Because our set up is equivalent to walking on a tight rope
Holding up a 70 pound tree trunk
17 stories up above barbed wire safety nets
Blending emotion, commotion focused
Like concentration
Bottling it up til the point when it detonates
It’s annihilation
So when you’re pissed
And you’re down to raising fists
Instead of hating put a tape in
Get it bouncing to this
Just get it up, get it up, stop
Pick it up, pick it up, drop
Get up in the spot we could go all night
There’s some things in the world
That’ll never go right
Let the speakers hum
Watch the mirrors vibrate
Get the whole place shakin, make it rock
Earthquake
Let the fire burn
We’re gonna fuel it all night
There’s some things in the world
That’ll never go right
I don’t want to be a clone
To a tone of another dull, wannabe
Microphone fiend, still treading water and stranded
As a salmon in this stream
Watch us spawn up, causin drama
Until we’re all just pawns
It’s on, let’s rock, let’s go
Let’s let it roll
I wanna see you on the floor
Want it shakin til the motherfucking walls are crumbling
Circle pit like a hurricane rumbling
Trying to get a little bit of stress off my chest
Trying to foster some recovery
Let’s shatter glass and rattle cages
Particles out of control
The stage is set for chaos
Straight out from the heart so let it go
Let the speakers hum
Watch the mirrors vibrate
Get the whole place shakin, make it rock
Earthquake
Let the fire burn
We’re gonna fuel it all night
There’s some things in the world
That’ll never go right
