(Intro: Man Speaking)
If one does what God does enough times, he becomes as God is
If you put it together, you get what you wanted
What you desired, if you do it enough times
He believes, you become one who is wanted, and desired, and accepted
Because God has Power
And if one does what God does enough times, one will become as God is

(Verse 1: Vinnie Paz)
Yeah... Jedi Mind Baby...
Yeah

Yeah we bringin you the hardcore, the real raw type shit
You ain't never seen nothing before like this
Its all real, all ill, and all natural
We all kill, all still, an blast at you
I like blood, I like tasting ya flesh
I like slugs, I like David Koresh
I like anything thats related to death
I like any king that can reign with his fist
Now back to the topic at hand
Steadily Shine, Shine Steadily with my fam
Im the one who put the nail in the cross
I'm the one who told the world about an alien corpse
I'm the one who brought the truth to the light
If you listening to me you couldn't lose in a fight
Abusing the mic, with the force of five lions
Anybody fuckin with Paz can die trying

(Chorus: Stoupe (Mixing) )
*Mixed Sound Clips*

(Verse 2: Vinnie Paz)
I'm a caged lion, always dying to hurt you
Always a believer that my rhymings a virtue
You just a heathen, and you lie like the church do
I can't believe that Allah hasn't cursed you
You too commercial, you still a disgrace
You like to sit around with women watching Will & Grace
I can't over-stand your sweetness
You should try hire a therapist to beat this
I'm being facetious, you should heed this
I'm the one who hammered the first nail in Jesus
I'm the definition of Toxic
Anyone who ever got close to me got sick

(Chorus: Stoupe (Mixing) )
*Mixed Sound Clips*

We like heavy metal, listening to Sepultura
Remain calm, study Islam, and read Torahs
You can't follow the paths of Mans Hill
You can't study the math and can't ill
You can't over-stand what I believe
You drown in an ocean of God and can't breath
It's like I've been involved with beef
Since the days of (??)
I learn how to worship Allah
I learn how to rhyme, and I teach it to yall
I'm speakin to yall
Its hardcore, real rap
Real Slugs, Real Clips and Real Gats
You real wack, and thats how I feel
And thats the reason that I got a reason to kill

Yeah... follow me daddy
Jedi Mind
What's the fuckin deal

(Chorus: Stoupe (Mixing) )
*Mixed Sound Clips*

*Different Clips play until the end of the song*

Hate - A Feeling We Can See
Create Fictitious Enemy
Outlaw Of Expression
Forget Past Wars We Have Fought

Watchers Of Morality
Told By The Hierarchy
Machine To Society
Falling To Conformity
Terrified To Speak Your Mind
............Government
Doesn't Matter Who You Are
For Our Own Good

Build, Upon Nation's Security
Police State - Brutality
Final Infliction - Manifestation
The Doctrine Is - Too Many Wars

Terror Is Control
The Key's - Distrust (?)
Annihilate Free Thought
Despise The Unknown

Watchers Of Morality
Told By The Hierarchy
Machine To Society
Falling To Conformity
Terrified To Speak Your Mind
............Government
Doesn't Matter Who You Are
For Our Own Good

Build, Upon Nation's Security
Police State - Brutality
Final Infliction - Manifestation
The Doctrine Is - Too Many Wars

. . .


I am the one, Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand!
My image is of agony, my servants rape the land!
Obsequious and arrogant - clandestine and vain!
Two thousand years of misery.. of torture, in my name!
Hipocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law!
My name is called religion - sadistic, sacred whore!

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit!
I am the emperor of lies - you grovel at my feet!
I rob you and I slaughter you! Your downfall is my gain!
And still you play the sycophant... and revel in my pain!
And all my promise are lies... all my love is hate!
I am the politician - and I decide your fate!

I march before a martyred world - an army for the fight.
I speak of great heroic days - of victory and might!
I hold a banner drenched in blood! I urge you to be brave!
I lead you to your destiny - I lead you to your grave!
Your bones will build my palaces - your eyes will stud my crown!
For I am Mars, the God of War, and I will cut you down!

LAND OF ANGER
I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN
SADNES, SORROW
EVERYTHING SO ALONE

LABORATORY SICKNESS
INFECTS HUMANITY
NO HOPE FOR CURE
DIE BY TECHNOLOGY

A WORLD FULL OF SHIT COMING DOWN
TRIBAL VIOLENCE EVERYWHERE
LIFE IN THE AGE OF TERRORISM
WE SPIT IN YOUR OTHER FACE

WAR OF RACES
WORLD WITHOUT INTELLIGENCE
A PLACE CONSUMED BY TIME
END OF IT ALL

WE'RE BORN
WITH PAIN
NO MORE
WE'RE DEAD
EMBRYONIC CELLS

CORROSION INSIDE - WE FEEL
CONDEMNED FUTURE - WE SEE
EMPTINESS CALLS - WE HEAR
FINAL PREMONITION - THE TRUTH

LAND OF ANGER
I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN
SADNES, SORROW
EVERYTHING SO ALONE

LABORATORY SICKNESS
INFECTS HUMANITY
NO HOPE FOR CURE
DIE BY TECHNOLOGY

WE'RE BORN WITH PAIN
SUFFER REMAINS
WE'RE BORN WITH PAIN
SUFFER REMAINS
WE'RE DEAD

. . .


SACRIFICE IS PLEASURE
WHEN LIFE ENDS IN PAIN
CONCEIVE THE LAST MISTAKE
WHICH BELONGS TO ALL

CREATION OF INSANE RULE
ALL WE HEAR:
DESPERATE CRY

DEATH THE COLDEST WIND
SEEPS INTO YOUR PORES
A NATION BORN OF HATE
FORGOTTEN DISTANT TIME

CREATION OF INSANE RULE
ALL WE HEAR:
DESPERATE CRY

ENDLESS EMPTY MAZE
DESPAIR, DISTRESS AND SILENCE
A POISON VACUUM, INFINITY
LIFE, LIES, DECEIT

MUTE SOULS END IN SILENCE
OCEANS TAINTED WITH BLOOD
EMPTY PROMISES OF HOPE
BURIED DEEP, INFECTED GROUND

CREATION OF INSANE RULE
ALL WE HEAR:
DESPERATE CRY

CRY!

. . .


CHAOTIC VIOLENCE IN MY EYES
THIS WHOLE WORLD MOVES BACKWARDS
PEACE, ANOTHER SIGN THAT LIES
LIFE TODAY IS NOT WORTH THE PAIN

ON THE RADIO, ANOTHER HOMICIDE
INMATES SUFFOCATE IN JAIL
SEVERED HEADS OF REVOLT
I WISH I'D NEVER BEEN BORN

SAME HAND THAT BUILDS - DESTROYS
SAME HAND THAT RELIEVES - BETRAYS
SAME HAND THAT SEEDS - BURNS
SAME PEACE THAT EXISTS - HERE LIES

I CAN'T TRUST ANYMORE
CRIMINALS WITHIN THE LAW
I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY
WHERE I LIVE, DON'T BELIEVE IN ANOTHER DAY

HERESY AND GRAFT
APARTHEID
SAME RELIGION THAT SAVES - DAMNS YOU!

. . .


THE DUAL SUBSTANCE OF CHRIST
THE YEARNING SO HUMAN
OF MAN TO ATTAIN GOD
HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DEEP

INSCRUTABLE MYSTERY TO ME
MY PRINCIPLE ANGUISH AND SOURCE
OF ALL MY JOYS AND SORROWS

RELIGION DOMAIN IS ALL I SEE
SUFFOCATE THE SCUM WITH MEDIOCRITY
LYING AND CHANGING YOUR FATE
ANNO DOMINI ENDS - MISERY

FROM MY YOUTH ONWARD
HAS BEEN THE INCESSANT
MERCILESS BATTLE BETWEEN
THE SPIRIT AND THE FLESH
AND MY SOUL IS THE ARENA
WHERE THESE TWO ARMIES
HAVE CLASHED AND MET

HOLY WARS UNLEASHING BLOODY RAIDS
THE SACRED EARTH WITHOUT A FACE
CONSUMED BY MURDEROUS SINNERS
PSYCHOTIC LEADER
INSANE-INSANE-INSANE-INSANE!

LIVING IN A DYING AGE
PERSECUTE THE HUMAN RACE
TRIUMPH OF DEATH IN THE WASTELAND
BLOOD SIGNS YOUR EPITAPH

RELIGION DOMAIN IS ALL I SEE
SUFFOCATE THE SCUM WITH MEDIOCRITY
LYING AND CHANGING YOUR FATE
ANNO DOMINI ENDS - MISERY


. . .


The mist is high in this night
Can feel the presence of death
Way to the mortuary so the deads will invoke
Corpses and skulls in my countour
See a corpse bloody with the face in cruciform
Now being from the wrath
Catch the skulls of a children, frozen and dismal
Coming with me
Creature, kill in name of Hell
The black mess is started, life's will terminate
With the wrath of the demons started the genocide
Wrath, in my corpus is born
Death, lost legions from Hell
Slaughter, you'll see in sacrifice
Skulls, are christians with blood

Necromancer
Dead's invoker
Necromancer
Dead's invoker

Wrath, odious, desire
In my corpus is born
The fates last, terror's spread
For a necros creature of
The crypts'

. . .


The sky throws up storms trying to avenge itself
You feel a pain that burns your flesh
Your reflection inside the mirror
Shows a past soiled by the blood of innocents
The human greed will be their own destruction
The apes in their cages surrounded by thorns
That are forcing us to live here

I feel an urge to melt and go through cracks
To vanish like a fossil that will be found
Flying on the universe
Brains of armed lives hidden in pits
It's a fight of dwarves strengthening the giants
They are sons of the same father, fruit of the same mother
All of them cry together in despair

But what's heard is only the buzz of flies
Over the rotten flesh
There's no more safe ground to be on
Everybody around you reflects an image
Distorted and wounded
I can hear the cry of a million souls
That have been already marked by their deaths
While the laughs of satisfaction echo endlessly...

Insanity - laceraring the last sanity
Endlessly - still remains on minds
Lunacy - masses smashed by a holy shit
No regret - from the past comes the storms

The sky throws up storms trying to avenge itself
You feel a pain that burns your flesh
Your reflection inside the mirror
Shows a past soiled by the blood of innocents
The human greed will be their own destruction
The apes in their cages surrounded by thorns
That are forcing us to live here

. . .


Venha ver as minhas cores
Ah, t? na hora do cabelo nascer
Hasteei o meu cabelo
Ah, para que o sol fique sabendo das coisas

O meu cabelo ? verde e amarelo
Violeta e transparente
A minha caspa ? de purpurina
Minha barba azul anil

[translation:]
The Hour And The Time For Growing Hair (Mutantes)

Come to see my colors
Ah, it's the hour for growing hair
I hoisted my hair
Ah, so that the sun is knowing what's going on

My hair is green and yellow
Violet and transparent
My dandruff is of purpurina*
My navy blue beard

. . .


I don't want to think, give me balls, go with my friends
Can't come up with anything, my brain needs stimulation

Drug me, drug me, drug me, drug me

I'm so fucking tired, got it waiting for us, gotta stay
TV and girls, third world, make more to store

Drug me, drug me, drug me, look out

Drug me, with natural vitamin C
Drug me, with pharmaceutical speed
Drug me, with your sleeping pills
Drug me, with your crossword puzzles
Drug me, with your magazines
Drug me, with your fuck machines
All fake, fuck it away

Finally off to work, another potato-chip weekend
Go away, go away, leave me alone, can't see myself

Drug me, drug me, drug me, drug me

[Original lyrics off "Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables" by DK (thanks Svein)]

[DRUG ME (Words and music: Jello Biafra)]

I don't want to think
Don't make me care
I wanna melt in with the group
I need the balls
To leap out of my shell
And let go with my friends

Can't come up with anything I want to do
I need a project I can finish
My brain needs some stimulation
DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME

I'm so fucking tired
I gotta stay awake and get to work
I'm runnin' late
I gotta make it through the day
And make my time go by

TV and the stereo and girls are lots of fun
I want the max
I relate better loaded
'Gotta see that movie stoned'

DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME
Drug me- with natural vitamin C
Drug me- with pharmaceutical speed
Drug me- with your sleeping pills
Drug me- with your crossword puzzles
Drug me- with your magazines
Drug me- with your fuck machines
With a fountain of fads
More rock and roll ads...
DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME ME ME

Finally off of work
Unwind, and watch the ball game at the bar
Another potato chip weekend
Is here at last
Go away Go away Go away Go away
Go away
Leave me alone
So I can't see myself

DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME
DRUG ME

Nascer para liberdade
E crescer para morrer
Crucificados pelo sistema
Morrer sem esquecer
O povo que ficou
Crucificados pelo sistema

[Repeat 1st 3 lines]

[Translation]

Born for freedom
And grown up to die
Crucified by the system
Dying without forgetting
the people left behind
crucified by the system

. . .


Police sucks
Fucking Fags
Cops in my house
Cops in the bus

Kill some cops
Fuck them up
All the cops
Fucking die

I hate Cops
Shit for brains
Stick your gun
Up your fuckin Ass !!!

OBSCURED BY THE SUN
APOCALYPTIC CLASH
CITIES FALL IN RUIN
WHY MUST WE DIE?

OBLITERATION OF MANKIND
UNDER A PALE GREY SKY
WE SHALL ARISE...

I DID NOTHING, SAW NOTHING
TERRORIST CONFRONTATION
WAITING FOR THE END
WARTIME CONSPIRACY

I SEE THE WORLD - OLD
I SEE THE WORLD - DEAD

VICTIMS OF WAR, SEEKING SOME SALVATION
LAST WISH, FATALITY
I'VE NO LAND, I'M FROM NOWHERE
ASHES TO ASHES, DUST TO DUST

FACE THE ENEMY
MANIC THOUGHTS
RELIGIOUS INTERVENTION
PROBLEMS REMAIN

. . .


WALKING THESE DIRTY STREETS
WITH HATE IN MY MIND
FEELING THE SCORN OF THE WORLD
I WON'T FOLLOW YOUR RULES
BLAME AND LIES, CONTRADICTIONS ARISE
BLAME AND LIES, CONTRADICTIONS ARISE
NONCONFORMITY IN MY INNER SELF
ONLY I GUIDE MY INNER SELF
I WON'T CHANGE MY WAY
IT HAS TO BE THIS WAY
I LIVE MY LIFE FOR MYSELF
FORGET YOUR FILTHY WAYS
BLAME AND LIES, CONTRADICTIONS ARISE
BLAME AND LIES, CONTRADICTIONS ARISE
NOBODY WILL CHANGE MY WAY
LIFE BETRAYS, BUT I KEEP ON GOING
THERE'S NO LIGHT, BUT THERE'S HOPE
CRUSHING OPPRESSION, I WIN
BETRAYING AND PLAYING DIRTY, YOU THINK YOU'LL WIN
BUT SOMEDAY YOU'LL FALL, AND I'LL BE WAITING
LAUGHS OF AN INSANE MAN, YOU'LL HEAR
PERSONALITY IS MY WEAPON AGAINST YOUR ENVY
WALKING THESE DIRTY STREETS
WITH HATE IN MY MIND
FEELING THE SCORN OF THE WORLD
I WON'T FOLLOW YOUR RULES
NONCONFORMITY IN MY INNER SELF
ONLY I GUIDE MY INNER SELF

. . .


LOOKING INSIDE, YOUR FUTURE UNCERTAIN
THE FEAR GROWS AS A SICKNESS UNCURED
THE SILENCE AGONIZES, THE WORDS SOUND STRONG
LOOK INSIDE THE EYES, LEAVE THIS WORLD
HATE THROUGHT THE ARTERIES
MASS HYPNOSIS
UNCERTAIN OF BEING BACK
THEYU MAKE YOU FEEL SO GOOD
EVERYTHING'S DARKENED
OBEY LIKE A FOOL
HATE THROUGHT THE ARTERIES
MASS HYPNOSIS
SOLDIERS GOING NOWHERE
BELIEVERS KNEELING OVER THEIR SINS
INHUMAN INSTINCT OF COWARDLY LEADERS
MAKE THE WORLD GO THEIR OWN WAY
TENS OF THOUSANDS HYPNOTIZED
TRYING TO FIND A REASON WHY
LOOK INSIDE YOUR EMPTY EYES
OBEY 'TILL THE END
LOOKING INSIDE, YOUR FUTURE UNCERTAIN
THE FEAR GROWS AS A SICKNESS UNCURED
THE SILENCE AGONIZES, THE WORDS SOUND STRONG
LOOK INSIDE THE EYES, LEAVE THIS WORLD
HATE THROUGHT THE ARTERIES
MASS HYPNOSIS
SOLDIERS GOING NOWHERE
SOLDIERS BLINDED BY THEIR FAITH

. . .


The pest in the eyes of death follows us
Through the dirty streets of blood
It begins to eat inside us, decaying our bones
How will we escape if the void covers our lungs?
We are buried in the spewed trash for ourselves

Blood, pain - nothing to say
Why then - must we die?

Escape to the void
Escape to the void

I look at my face on the other side of the mirror
My face falls down in pieces full of worms
I burst my rotten heart with my own hands
I'm dying and I can't help myself

Blood, pain - nothing to say
Why then - must we die?

What have I been running from?
I'm not guilty
You've shown me the worst way
Cause you're my victim... the next one

The pest in the eyes of death follows us
Through the dirty streets of blood
It begins to eat inside us, decaying our bones
How will we escape if the void covers our lungs?
We are buried in the spewed trash for ourselves

Blood, pain - nothing to say
Why then - must we die?

Escape to the void
Escape to the void

. . .


Total Eclipse Hides The Earth
The Night Of Doom Has Come
Antichrist Soldiers Are Proclaimed
To Send Souls To The Hell

Catastrophe And Destruction
Mankind Is Slaughtered Without Mercy
Suphul Clouds Are In The Air
Legions Winds Corrose The Universe

The Messiah, Redeemers Of Mankind
Chained In The Valley Of Hades
Crowds Blinded By Evil
Only Death Is Real
Total Destruction
Walls Of Churches
Stained By Blood
Altars Burning In The Flames
The Doom Cries Out For Insanity

The Nuclear War Announces The End Of The World
The Mankind Is Buried And Forgotten
Prophets Foresee The Doom
They Foresee The Triumph Of Your Death


. . .


FEAR IN MY SUBCONSCIOUS
TERROR INVADES MY SPEECH
FAITH IN MY OWN WORDS
NO ONE KNOWS THE NAMELESS

WARM WINDS AND BURNING TEARS
SPIRITS OUTSIDE BODIES

ENDLESS REPRESSION BY MAJORITY
A MASTER WITHOUT COMMAND
STRANGE NEW DIMENSION DISTURBING MY BRAIN
CENSORED IDEAS, COUNTERFEIT ANSWERS

SHINING BLAST, NO PERCEPTION
ALTERED STATE, NO REACTION
SHINING BLAST
ALTERED STATE

SLOW TALK, FAST THOUGHTS
ANCIENT SCRIPTURES
CONTROVERSIAL LINES
KNOWLEDGE CHANGES

RUNNING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION
CROSSING WITH BLIND EYES
I'M CLOSER TO MYSELF
SANITY CAN'T INVADE
