Track Lyrics
The Race Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I heard there was a place where we're all one race
Color, gender, age never could dictate
I saw there was a time when we valued all life
Nobody oppressed, everyone had rights
Suddenly
In an age where the distance between us is binary
All we see
Is an internal war, friendly fire in the sky and respect on the floor
[Chorus]
Constricting like a heart attack
A mythomaniac on the loose in the streets
Blood boiling with the burning heat
Of caustic defeat, now there's no turning back
[Verse 2]
Ha, so we laugh, while the tides all turn
Melting grey matter, voluntarily slaves
Always searching for the one real truth
So we can misconstrue it to suit our needs
[Chorus]
Constricting like a heart attack
A mythomaniac on the loose in the streets
Blood boiling with the burning heat
Of caustic defeat, now there's no turning back
[Bridge]
Ingesting, operant conditioning
Divine contamination, like lye on flesh, it stings
Trust your leaders, trust the system, reproduce, repeat
Never question authority, never suspect deceit
[Verse 3]
Always on the run, can't remember what we're running to
Or what we're running from, but we're picking up speed
All the books and broadcasts? Jettison
Without their burden, true ethics are freed
Extract the labels that lobotomize
And you'll realize, we are all one
Fly or swim, fur or skin
We're alive! Abolitionists rise
[Chorus]
Constricting like a heart attack
A mythomaniac on the loose in the streets
Blood boiling with the burning heat
Of caustic defeat, now don't go turning back
Blood in the Water Lyrics
[Intro]
There's blood in the water
There's fear in the air
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
And we're all running scared
[Verse 1]
Ashes to ashes
And dust to dust while bombs never rust
Watch the war on your screen
Yesterday's ideals were just a dream
[Bridge]
There's blood in the water
Round and round we go
Where this will end nobody knows
[Verse 2]
There's profit in prophets
Too much money in lies
Missiles fueled by hatred
As the blind lead the blind
[Bridge]
Round and round we go
Where this will end nobody knows
[Chorus]
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Have we finally run out of road?
You can't build a wall high enough
Can't dig a deep enough hole
[Verse 3]
Equality, now a profanity
Wave goodbye to humanity
There's a monster under your bed
You created it, so don't be scared
[Bridge]
Round and round we go
Where this will end nobody knows
[Chorus]
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Have we finally run out of road?
You can't build a wall high enough
Can't dig a deep enough hole
[Outro]
There's blood in the water
There's blood in the water
There's fear in the air
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
And we're all running scared
There's blood in the water
Eye for an eye
There's blood in the water
There's blood in the water
Eye for an eye
The Eagle Flies Alone Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
When I was born, the seed was sown
I will not obey, my life is my own
Battle those, who wish to enslave me
Expose the lies, that enrage me
[Verse 2]
I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell
Never joined the herd, could not adjust well
Slave and master, it's not for me
I chose my own path, set myself free
[Chorus]
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
The eagle flies alone
[Verse 3]
Reject the system, that dictates the norm
This world is full of lies and deceit
I have felt betrayal, cut so deep
Suffered defeat, only to rise again
[Chorus]
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
The eagle flies alone
Alone
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
The eagle flies alone
My Shadow and I Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You bathe in sorrow, drowning in hate
You kill tomorrow, fighting against the fates
Raise hell, wipe that smile off your face
Raise hell, fall into place
Pick up your entrails the time has come
Leave the bed of nails, let it all burn
Raise hell, wipe that smile off your face
Raise hell, embrace hell
[Chorus]
Nobody drives you down the less-traveled road
Me and my shadow, we know the way through
[Verse 2]
Your face disgusts me, turn it away
You think you know at whom you're staring?
Raise hell, I'll scrape that smile off your face
Raise hell, the end of all days
What is this defense you're drowning in?
Give up the pretense, it's sink or swim
Raise hell, I'll scrape that smile off your face
Raise hell, the end of all days
[Chorus]
Nobody drives you down the less-traveled road
Me and my shadow, we know the way through
[Bridge]
Right behind me matching every stride
Though you're made of darkness
You only appear in the light
You made your bed, now lay
Why die in peace while living in fear?
Didn't you know your heaven was insincere
Raise hell, unite the fire and sky
Raise hell
[Chorus]
Nobody drives you down the less-traveled road
Me and my shadow, we know the right way to go
Back to Back Lyrics
[Intro]
Ride
[Verse 1]
They came at dawn into the morning light
Black shadows ridin' on the mist
Prepared for battle, swords were shinin' bright
Filled with anger and harm
Came to kill not to charm
[Verse 2]
The sound of metal screamin' in the air
The time has come where justice rules
The endless victims looking up in fear
Now who were the fools
[Chorus]
Oh here they come
Riders of the sun
And they will fight
Back to back
Back to back
[Verse 3]
They're fighting hard their way to victory
Dead bodies lying on the ground
They are the soldiers of eternity
And their swords spinnin' round
[Chorus]
Oh here they come
Riders of the sun
And they will fight
Back to back
Back to back
[Bridge]
They're killing with power
They're ready to ride
Let's go
They got it all
They'll never fall
But they will fight
[Verse 4]
The night is fallin', light will disappear
A magic silence fills the place
Could read the warning, shinin' crystal clear
Now they were lost for the chase
[Chorus]
Oh here they come
Riders of the sun
And they will fight
Back to back
Back to back
[Outro]
Now, now, now, now
