Mata Leão by Biohazard - Album Lyrics & Tracks

3 ContributorsThese Eyes (Have Seen) LyricsSo many things these eyes have seen

People I've met and places I've been

Inconceivable how one maintains

In the game with the pain and the strain on the brain

How reality's plane can wear you down

And make you an insane man who only frowns

City hardened and cold just like me

Anger has numbed my eyes from all they see

 

Like a workingman's skin as it turns to leather

The mind of the youth is forced to weather

An assault on his senses by his parents and peers

That preys on innocence, weakness and fears

Manifestation of rage runs deep

Over the edge of sanity, thoughts creep

Violent reaction, bitter and mean

A product of what these eyes have seen

 

These eyes have seen inhuman sights

I hold my breath with all my might

Like anyone else in our own hells

It seems obscene the things I've seen

 

Lost count of how many wakes were attended

Mind and body never quite mended

Do you think this is what life intended?

At fourteen your life has ended

Maybe your spirit is battered and broken

From shit you've seen and words that were spoken

Death, violence, drugs all around

These eyes have seen some shit go down

2 ContributorsModern Democracy LyricsAs I look up at the sky

I wonder why my momma always cried

Was it for how fast we lived and died?

Or because we never got our piece of the pie?

Busting at the seams, The American Dream

Like Meth said Cream, Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Parents with good intentions never mention

The Brooklyn House of Detention

 

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our peace before we die

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our piece of the pie and die

 

Locking us down, we got cops all around

The sound of sirens drown your own heart's pound

But you only wanted a piece of the pie

And in your mind's eye momma's still gonna cry

No matter how hard you tried, whether it's truth or lies

On the day that you die...but we're free to fly

And free to try to get our piece of the pie and die

 

Freedom, Liberty, The KKK, Modern Democracy, we have no say

American Dream, The American Way, Land of the Free, Home of the Slave

 

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our peace before we die

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our piece of the pie and die

 

 

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our peace before we die

Free to fly, and free to try, to get our piece of the pie and die

 

Freedom, Liberty, The KKK, Modern Democracy, we have no say

American Dream, The American Way, Land of the Free, Home of the Slave

 

Freedom, Liberty, The KKK, Modern Democracy, we have no say

American Dream, The American Way, Land of the Free, Home of the Slave

2 ContributorsA Way LyricsA WAY

 

The sun is shining, but I don't know if it'll shine again

The sky is clear now, but the clouds wait overhead

The wind stopped blowing, but I see the trees are flowing

The water's calm now feel the undertow towing me down

Towing me down

 

The sun's gone down now behind the dark clouds looming

Birds stop singing, silence so soothing

Dark clouds open up, I hold my rain-soaked head

Thoughts are racing by, I scream and wish that I was dead

I wish that I was dead

 

Gotta find a way in this world to cope

Gotta find a place in this world with hope

 

Gotta find a way to keep my head straight another day

I pray to let go of hate I break myself away from my mind

I search for inner peace I never find
