Track Lyrics

Knowledge Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know things are getting tougher
When you can't get the top off the bottom of the barrel
Wide open road of my future now
It's looking fucking narrow
[Chorus]
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
[Verse 2]
We get told to decide
Just like, as if, I'm not gonna change my mind
[Chorus]
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
[Bridge]
What'cha gonna do with yourself?
Boy, better make up your mind
What'cha gonna do with yourself, boy?
You're running out of time
[Guitar Solo]
[Interlude]
This time I got it all figured out
[Verse 3]
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
[Chorus]
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't, don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
[Outro]
And that's fine

Sound System Lyrics

[Chorus]
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Yeah, one thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Right, one thing that I can depend on
[Verse 1]
Try to describe it to the limit of my ability
It's there for a second, then it's giving up what it used to be
Contained in music, somehow more than just sound
This inspiration coming and twisting things around
'Cause you always know that it's gonna have to go
You always know that you'll be back in the cold
Point of departure sublimated in a song
It's always coming to give me that hope for just a second then it's gone but
[Chorus]
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Right, one thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Yeah, one thing that I can depend on
[Verse 2]
Static pulse inside of music bringing us escape
It's always temporary, changing nothing in its wake
Just a second where we're leaving all this shit behind
Just a second, but it's leaving just this much in mind
To resist despair, that second makes you see
To resist despair, 'cause you can't change everything
To resist despair, in this world is
What it is, what it is, what it is to be free
[Chorus]
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Right, one thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Yeah, one thing that I can depend on
[Bridge]
Hup, hup, hup, hup
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up (Sound system), pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
Sound system
Sound system
Wake up, turn my box on, bust the shade, let the sun in
Times are getting tougher, 'bout time to start running
Box in my hand, music by my side
Skankin' to the rhythm of the music by my side
[Chorus]
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Yeah, one thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Right, one thing that I can depend on
Yeah
[Chorus]
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Right, one thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up
Yeah, one thing that I can depend on
[Outro]
Sound (Sound) system (System)
Sound (Sound) system (System)

Take Warning Lyrics

10 ContributorsTake Warning LyricsListen up!
Oh, take warning, take warning
Really gotta take warning
Stand by your friends
Wrong or right
Can't call that justice
If it's just a stupid excuse to fight
Single out and attack
Ones who got no defense
You call that a new way of thinking
I call it regression to ignorance
Take warning, take warning
Take warning, take warning
New generation coming, and we really gotta stand up to them
Take warning, take warning
No one's got a thing against you
Unless you've got something to prove
We don't need no new set of standards
We don't need a new set of rules, man
Heard all that shit before about stomping out any difference
We say stand together
Not to fight, just to exist
Take warning, take warning
Take warning, take warning
Intimidation coming, and we really gotta say no to them
Take warning, take warning
Enough is enough is enough
Why don't you just ease up?
I saw another beat down last night
Take warning
Who's the next to hit the ground tonight?
Take warning
Take warning
Take warning, take warning
Take warning, take warning
Intimidation coming, and we really gotta say no to them
Take warning, take warning

The Crowd Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh!
[Verse 1]
Wrenched into the world, de-anaesthetized
Blurry images fight their way through halfway-opened eyes
Awakened by alarm, fifteen minutes of hygiene
Twenty minutes of eating, thirty seconds to the door
I looked outside, I looked into the eyes
Of the impersonal mob I've seen a thousand times before
Feelings under covers like books on a shelf
If we're scared of one another, must be scared of ourselves
[Chorus]
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
We need a gathering instead
[Verse 2]
Drink, drink in the badlands
Liquid bread for the poor
Another member of the crowd goes down
To drown at the liquor store
Choose your escape in the heartlands
Of product and demand
When you feel like a wasp in the swarm
You gotta get away any way that you can
[Chorus]
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
We need a gathering instead
[Solo]
[Chorus]
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
More than just another crowd
We need a gathering instead

Unity Lyrics

21 ContributorsUnity LyricsThere's a war coming down between my brothers tonight
I don't want no war going down
Going down, going down tonight
Stop this war
Stop this war
Civilization? Ha!
I call it as I see it
I call it bullshit
You know, I still cannot believe it
Our evolution now has gone the way of hate
A world evolved, resolved Into a stupid fate
Stop this war
Stop this war
All so different?
Yeah, I say we're all the same
All caught, you know, in the division game
Self-destruction fast impending like a bullet
No one can stop it
Once it's fired, no one can control it
Stop this war
Stop this war
A final word
Wait, it's not a call to action
We ain't no sect
No, this ain't no fuckin' faction
Unity, unity, unity, you've heard it all before
This time it's not exclusive
We wanna stop the war
Stop this war
Stop this war
Ain't nothing wrong
With another unity song
Ain't nothing wrong
With another unity song
Ain't nothing wrong
Ain't nothing wrong
Ain't nothing wrong
Ain't nothing wrong with a unity song
Stop this war
Stop this war
Unity
As one, stand together
Unity
Evolution gotta come, right
Unity
As one, stand together
Unity
Evolution gotta come
Unity
As one, stand together
Unity
Evolution gotta come
Unity
As one, stand together
Unity
Evolution gotta come

Smiling Lyrics

[Intro]
Smiling
Friends
Watching you
[Verse 1]
At the party, at the bus stop, at the bar
You're looking at women 'cause your score is under par
When you find her, it doesn't mean anything
You wonder why your life is so boring
[Pre-Chorus]
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
You would gladly waste it just to, just to save face
Her desire was your wish, and without it you are lost
Integrity is fragile, but you ignored the cost
[Chorus]
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
[Verse 2]
One night stand, car keys in hand
You've fulfilled your gender's sexual demands
Are you feeling insecure and empty
When you're rushing to report to your peers?
[Pre-Chorus]
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
You would gladly waste it just to, just to save face
Her desire was your wish, and without it you are lost
Integrity is fragile, but you ignored the cost
[Chorus]
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Smiling when your friends are watching
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
[Outro]
Smiling
Friends
Watching you

Room Without a Window Lyrics

[Spoken]
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Oh, we're so stupid!
Killin' each other
Don't we learn nothin'?
Gotta room inside our mind, yeah, we gotta
We can't see out because we're blind, but it goes to show
Got to make ourselves dream, all right
From the room without a window to a different way to see
Gotta room inside our mind, yeah, we gotta
We can't see out because we're blind, but it goes to show
Gotta make ourselves dream, all right
From the room without a window to a different way to see
The position being taken is not to be mistaken
For attempted education or righteous accusation
Only a description, just an observation
Of the pitiful condition of our degeneration
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
