1. Desire to Fire
1, 2, fuck this place up.
We turn desire to fire electric spark to the wire
highered the stakes when we brought 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 sensmilla vodka and C-O-K-E is the real deal
you flubber, never had to suffer
lifeīs gettin harder and itīs only getting rougher
save some for me cant stop what were 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 results in catastrophe
words and verbs come to form a disaster
if you want it, you got it never hit I spot it
now come and watch me rise
all the tools, that blew more money than Latrell
you tell, I donīt know you think I know you too well you fell
and stumbled laughin as you tumbled
I guess you forgot about the power we rock
coz "ALL HAIL THE" Machine Head battery
the good, the bad, the ugly
damaging your battery yeah you been fucked stuck in a rut
your life has been sucked your tail has been tucked
save some for me canīt stop what were going to be
just watch as as i demonstrate the reason we dominate
If we stand alone and believe it all and you tell me itīs all I believe in
yes we stand alone and believe it all if you tell me itīs all we believe in
because we weīll chew and spit you out
and pray upon the weaker
take what we want
2. Nothing Left
Withered away I see it
Every day complacent
Desecrates the fabric of lies
Emptiness fills inside me
Bitterness has denied me
Faith like this well
Could I really give a shit
When I feel it
Come falling
I turn you away
I am the things that you fear
My leap of faith without a sound
Donīt push my back against the wall
Yes I have strength will never fall, will never
Withered inside
This soul has petrified
As concrete fills the skies
This life is disarray
Consequence every action
Brings violence from the passions
Loneliness the emotion withering inside
When I feel it
Come falling
I turn you away
I am the things that you fear
My leap of faith without a sound
Donīt push my back against the wall
Yes I have strength will never fall
I feel around the fall is on
For so long Iīve been away..away
For years to now been holdinī on
For so long Iīve been away.. away
I have nothing left for nobody else
I have nothing left for nobody
Feel it
Come falling
I turn you away
I am the things that you fear
My leap of faith without a sound
Donīt push my back against the wall
Yes I have strength will never fall
3. The Blood, the Sweat, the Tears
Yes Iīve walked the path thats righteous
Many men have walked before
Yeah this pain cell, the broken shell
Scraped, shackled onto the floor
So welcome to the world that I lived in
Puking out violent hate
My world entered a false recluse
Sickening from disease
But then I see
This thing in me
Make me want it more than you
But I deny your flesh
Cause painīs my wish
Racing on self destruct
So hold on to the end...
Its all about the blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength built through the years
Oh yes Iīve walked the path that
gives me confidence strong and pure
Now I realized that freedom rises
from confronting the source
I built these walls around me
And I canīt break them all away
And I focus on the strength I call
Insufferable and insane
So hold on to the end...
Its all about the blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength built through the years
A tribute to soul...
Take this
Focus
Madness
To take...
...hold...on...on...on...
hold on.. falling.. please let go..
hold on.. iīm falling... iīm falling down again...
Its all about the blood, the sweat, the tears
Attribute to the strength built through the years
A tribute cos time will set īem off
Cos time will set īem off
4. Silver
Yes, I hold some keys of gold
A cigarrette, a silver bullet
Angels crying day and night
The world is our stage
Look inside and try and find the part of me that tore
I wish I knew what I got through Behind...
Take my hand across this land
Escape this, all the hell inside
Create this man to make my stand
And break this hardened shell inside
I see the man in me
The lines along my face are drawn in
I believe reflections bleed
The sorrows of the souls
Let me know the hurt that shows
And wish it all away
Cos now youīll see all this pain in me collide...
Take my hand across this land
Escape this all the hell inside
Create this man to make my stand
And break this hardened shell in...
I see the walls around me fall around me
And everythingīs alright
I see the god amoung me fall amoung me
And everythingīs beside
I see the walls around you, tie and bound you
Drown cos youīre so cold.. Cold.. Cold..
Take my hand across this land
Escape this all the hell inside
Create this man to make my stand
And Break this hardened shell inside
So take my hand and cross this land
And Break this hardned shell in, hardened shell in, hardened shell inside...
5. From This Day
Go, 1,2,3,4,
Yeah, Yeah, You gotta
Stand tall and cut away the ties
Drop Balls and hold that head up high
The world is fast and youth aint gonna wait
So grab a hold before it gets to late
Bare your soul and strip away the cold
Of withered life thats past so gray and old
Cause all the pain that thats filled these eyes you see
Has made them bleed just recently
Tears that made me
Ashamed to be me
But that gave me
Strength to see me
Made a spark that
Lit the dark
Let me shine
Time to see, believe this in me
This pain that i feel deep inside
Cause its time when you come together, peel together
Better now so do it now or never
I fall sleep to freeways far from here
Spend half the night just drinking beer
From this day on shall be the words
My flesh and bones shall make it heard
Dont you test Ill have to mess with you
Do my best so fuck the rest of you
One of these days
Youīll see Iīve always been right
I can feel this pain is real I never wanted anything from you, you
And it makes me glad
When i see the sun
And it makes me sad
When you feel my one
And i thank my god
Got a girl like you
And i thank my god
Did you save me
6. Exhale the Vile
Canīt match the stare within these eyes
Do you have the strength for all your lies
Canīt stand the pain with which i see
This integrity is what i breathe
I inhale this life i gave to you
And exhale the vile
Time will tell Because my friend and
Never will I concede the end
Cause catarac resin fills my eyes
Never gonna see the man Through your fake lies
Tell me the things thatīll take time
To help see the things Thatīll take this
Burn inside of me
Canīt feel the sting from words gone by
Canīt keep the papers filled with lies
Ten fold, this confidence I breed
Created back the words I see
Iīll inhale this gift I gave to you
And exhale the vile
Kill this fire with gasoline
Convictions I spit, my faith obscene
Heretic Jackals worship liars
Forever Iīll be the god that you desire
Tell me the things thatīll take time
To help see the things thatīll take this
And hold onto things thatīll make my
To make me the thing that breaks this
Burn inside of me
Time will tell because my friend and
Never will I concede the end
Heretic Jackals worship liars
Forever Iīll be the god that you desire
Tell me the things thatīll take time
To help see the things thatīll take this
And hold onto things thatīll make my
To make me the thing that breaks this Burn inside of me
Burn inside of me, Burn inside of me, Burn inside of me
7. Message in a Bottle
Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
Thereīs no one here but me
More loneliness than any man could bare
Rescue me before I fall into despair
I send an SOS to
I send an SOS to
I hope that someone gets my...
I hope that someone gets my...
I hope that someone gets my...
Message in a bottle... Message in a bottle...
A year has been since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep us together yeah
Love can mend your life but love can break your heart
I send an SOS to
I send an SOS to
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle Message in a bottle
Iīm sending out an SOS...
8. Devil with the Kingīs Card
I will see your rise and fall
I will be your rise and fall
I will make your rise and fall
Iīll create your rise and fall
And I will be your
Got bored with me because Iīm
Born with conviction
From a pain youīll never ever understand, understand
Never forget what I said cause you ainīt half of me
Iīll tear down and break anything that stands in front of me
Iīm taking down what the fuck is ever in my way
So get away
I will see your rise and fall
I will be your rise and fall
I will make your rise and fall
Iīll create your rise and fall
And I will be your
But for me Iīll forgive despite your actions
Cos you never ever ever act on what you said
That you said
Give it to me, let it be,
But youīre the one who quit
You said it yourself, Iīm the best
and you can handle it
The cry, watch how Machine Head takes it all, it all
And i feel for you
Cos your eyes they whore
And I think I hurt
Cos of something more than
You see Iīm falling
All apart
Cos your eyes they
Decide your heart
Rise and fall
And I will make the walls fall
And I will make the walls fall
And I will make the walls fall
And I will make the walls fall
Down.. Down.. Fall down.. Fall down..
I will see you rise and fall
I will be you rise and fall
I will make you rise and fall
Iīll create your rise and fall
And I will be you
9. I Defy
e my one
Would you take my son?
Would you tell someone whether we had fun?
With your hero, double zero
Gonna suck around your fearo
Then Iīm never ever falling again
Would you take my grace
Look into my face
With your limp handshake
And your smile thats fake
Would you back my fight
Say youīre down for life
Well its easy to say when you werenīt doinī nothin
My God makes me long for a better way
You fear my strength if weīre backed into a cage
Because I,
I defy
See my fate
Underestimate
I intoxicate while you emulate
With the users and the losers
Suckinī up to the abusers
And Iīm never ever fallinī again
For the tricks you play
All the fronts you claim
And you just cant fake
The respect I make
Youīre a parasite
You conform on site
Youīre a leak and a cheat
Always weak and always will be
Maker makes me long for a better way
You fear my strength if weīre backed into a cage
Because I,
I defy
So burn it apart son
Iīll give it away
Iīll see
Why didnīt you end the pain
I canīt take this
I canīt fake this
I will break this
I will make this
Cause
I defy
10. Five
I remember, it was the month october
In a garage, i was standing scared and somber
I could smell your breathing, and the pain your leaving
So ashamed, iīm feeling
And now i am left to fate
For all the times iīd be losing my mind
You molest and destroy just a five year old boy
And you make me suffer, motherfucker
Ripped my heart out
It was so good
I remember words that never left me
For a scull of silver hereīs what youīd do for me
If you tell, iīll kill you
Rip the child out from you
Wish that i could stop you
Please god make this go away
For all the times Iīve been losing my mind
You molest and destroy just a five year old boy
And you make me suffer, mother fucker
Ripped my heart out
Innocence was lost
And i feel it
I canīt take it
I donīt want it
Anymore
Was only five
And i feel it
Cant take it anymore
For all the times i heard you
Say in my goddamned mind
Make it sooner if i suck you
Iīd make you suffer
Make you suffer
Motherfucker
For all the times iīd be losing my mind
You molest and destroy just a five year old boy
And you make me suffer, motherfucker
Ripped my heart out..
...I was only five...
...Five...
11. The Burning Red
I see the sun begin to rise
And Iīm wounded Iīve seen the world from painted eyes
That Iīm crying through I watch the darkness hit the tides
And confide in... Hold On
Iīm falling
Canīt breathe anymore
The ocean has opened
These scars need to heal
Caress the needle prick in my eye
The tears fell like rain
Iīve rode the phoenix as she glides
And Iīve gone insane Iīve seen the light of suicide
And Iīm dying Hold on,
Iīm falling
Canīt breathe anymore
And the Ocean has opened
These Scars need to heal
Hold on Iīm falling, canīt reach... reach...
Colder and colder Just hold onto me
