Keys
To the Kingdom
Tossed the keys to the kingdom
Down that hole in my eye
I’m my own / casualty
I fuck up everything I see
Fighting in futility
We start the final war
Tell me what’s worth fighting for
When we know there’s nothing more
We take the hand or fist
Just to sell ourselves for this
The path we least resist
No control / no surprise
Tossed the keys to the kingdom
Down that hole in my eye
I’m my own / casualty
I fuck up everything I see
Fighting in futility
I give you what you came for / this is not the same though
Got a different method but I still can bring the pain so
Y’all stuck in that same flow / I got that insane flow
High as y’all can get you’re never really in my range though
Yes I’m half anglo / half fried panko
All prime-time rhymer / let the bass bang low
All you fucking lames go / aiming at my name, know
Careful what you shoot because you might hit what you aim for
No control / no surprise
Tossed the keys to the kingdom
Down that hole in my eye
I’m my own / casualty
I’m my own
Casualty
All
For Nothing (feat. Page Hamilton)
So what
’cha waiting for
Anticipating
more
While you
debate what it could take to instigate a war
Yeah I
been hated more than time I wasn’t hated for
There’s
nothing they can fucking say they didn’t say before
But you
could never see it
Your
battle’s not mine
Wanna
skate and play it safe but this is take a shot time
While
you’re waiting for a purpose I already got mine
While you
tell me step to it like 1, 2, 3, 4
And if I
do what you demand
(You say)
You’ll let me understand
(You say)
You’re gonna hold me to your word
And if I
sell myself away
(You say)
I’ll have no debt to pay
(You say)
I’m gonna get what I deserve
YOUR WORD
/ OBEYED
MY DEBT /
REPAID
OUR TRUST
/ BETRAYED
ALL FOR
NOTHING
ALL FOR
NOTHING
Kick back
there’s no other way to say it
So let me
break this fucker down for ya
I really
don’t know ya
You talk
but let me show ya where to put your paranoia
You’re
joking, I don’t have a half a sucker bone to throw ya
I’m
disgusted, wonder what could’ve made ya tuck your tail below ya
And no
I’m not your soldier I’m not taking any orders
I’m a
five star general, infantry controller
Need a
lesson? Let me show ya
Have you
checking your composure
While I
make you step to it like 1, 2, 3, 4
Guilty All the Same (feat. Rakim)
Tell us
all again
What you
think we should be
What the
answers are
What it
is we can’t see
Tell us
all again
How to do
what you say
How to
fall in line
How
there’s no other way
But oh,
we all know
You’re
guilty all the same
Too sick
to be ashamed
You want
to point your finger
But
there’s no one else to blame
Show us
all again
That our
hands are unclean
That
we’re unprepared
That you
have what we need
Show us
all again
’Cause we
cannot be saved
’Cause
the end is near
Now
there’s no other way
And oh,
you will know
[Rakim]
Yeah, you
already know what it is
Can y’all
explain what kind of land is this
When a
man has plans of being rich
But the
bosses’ plans is wealthy?
Dirty
money scheme, a clean split is nonsense
It’s
insane
Even
corporate hands is filthy
They talk
team and take the paper route
All they
think about is bank accounts, assets and realty
At
anybody’s expense
No shame
with a clear conscience
No
regrets and guilt free
They
claim that ain’t the way that they built me
The smoke
screen before the flame
Knowing
as soon as the dough or the deal peak
They say
it’s time for things to change
Rearrange
like good product rebuilt cheap
Anything
if it’s more to gain
Drained,
manipulated like artists, it’s real deep
Until no
more remains
But I’m
still me
Like
authentic hip-hop and rock
’Til pop
and radio and record companies killed me
Try to
force me to stray and obey
And got
the gall to say how real can real be
You feel
me, we’ll see that green could be to blame
Or greedy
for the fame
TV or a
name
The
media, the game
To me
you’re all the same
You’re
guilty
The
Summoning
Instrumental
War
There’s
no peace / only war
Victory
decides who’s wrong or right
It will
not cease / only grow
You
better be prepared to fight
And it
will not apologize
For
laying down your life
War
There’s
no pain / it will spare
Fear has
become your only right
And once
you’re lost / in your despair
Forever
black eternal night
And it
will not apologize
For
laying down your life
War
Destroyer
War
Destroyer
It needs
no side to justify
Laying
down your life
War
Destroyer
War
Wastelands
Marching with no stepping
Murder with no killing
Illin’ every direction
First / no sequel
Do the math / no equal
John with no Yoko:
More power less people
And no I’m not afraid of that
Print it in your paperback
Every rap is made in fact to act as a delayed attack
Every phrase a razor blade that’s saved until they play it back
To slay and leave ’em laying on the pavement
Bang
Fade to black
In the wastelands of today
Where there’s nothing left to lose
And there’s nothing more to take
But you force yourself to choose
In the wastelands of today
Where tomorrow disappears
While the future slips away
And your hope turns into fear
In the wastelands of today
Roll credits you get it the show’s done
They’re talking for just talking but meaning, they got none
None of ’em come proper they talk like a shotgun but
How many got bred with integrity / not one / so no
I’m not afraid to see you suckers hold a blade to me
Ain’t a way to shake the ground I built before you came to be
Take it how you take it / I’m the opposite of vacancy
And this is not negotiation ya’ll can hate and wait and see
Until It’s Gone
A fire
needs a space to burn
A breath
to build a glow
I’ve
heard it said a thousand times
But now I
know
That you
don’t know what you’ve got
Oh you
don’t know what you’ve got
No you
don’t know what you’ve got
Until
it’s gone
I thought
I kept you safe and sound
I thought
I made you strong
But
something made me realize
That I
was wrong
’Cause
finding what you got sometimes
Is
finding it alone
And I can
finally see your light
When I
let go
’Cause
you don’t know what you’ve got
Until
it’s gone
’Til it’s
gone…
’Cause
you don’t know what you’ve got
Oh you
don’t know what you’ve got
No you
don’t know what you’ve got
It’s your
battle to be fought
No you
don’t know what you’ve got
’Til it’s
gone
Rebellion (feat. Daron Malakian)
I’ve seen
the blood
I’ve seen
the broken
The lost
and the sights unseen
I want a
flood
I want an
ocean
To wash
my confusion clean
I can’t
resolve this empty story
I can’t
repair the damage done
We are
the fortunate ones
Who’ve
never faced oppression’s gun
We are
the fortunate ones
Imitations
of rebellion
We act it
out
We wear
the colors
Confined
by the things we own
We’re not
without
We’re
like each other
Pretending
we’re here alone
And far
away, they burn their buildings
Right in
the face of the damage done
We are
the fortunate ones
Who’ve
never faced oppression’s gun
We are
the fortunate ones
Imitations
of rebellion
REBELLION,
REBELLION
WE LOST
BEFORE THE START
REBELLION,
REBELLION
ONE BY
ONE WE FALL APART
We are
the fortunate ones
Who’ve
never faced oppression’s gun
We are
the fortunate ones
Imitations
of imitations of…
We are
the fortunate ones
Who’ve
never faced oppression’s gun
We are
the fortunate ones
Imitations
of rebellion
Mark
the Graves
There’s a
fragile game we play
With the
ghosts of yesterday
If we
can’t let go we’ll never say goodbye
No trace
of what remains
No stones
to mark the graves
Only
memories we thought we could deny
There was
so much more to lose
Than the
pain I put you through
In my
carelessness I left you in the dark
And the
blood may wash away
But the
scars will never fade
At least
I know somehow I made a mark
In the
dark
In the
light
Nothing
left
Nothing
right
Drawbar (feat. Tom Morello)
Instrumental
Final
Masquerade
Tearing
me apart with / the words you wouldn’t say
And
suddenly tomorrow’s / a moment washed away
’Cause I
don’t have a reason, and you don’t have the time
But we
both keep on waiting for something we won’t find
The light
on the horizon
Was
brighter yesterday
With
shadows floating over
The scars
begin to fade
We said
it was forever
But then
it slipped away
Standing
at the end of
The final
masquerade
All I
ever wanted / the secrets that you keep
All you
ever wanted / the truth I couldn’t speak
’Cause I
can’t see forgiveness, and you can’t see the crime
But we
both keep on waiting for what we left behind
A
Line in the Sand
Today
We stood
on the wall
We
laughed at the sun
We
laughed at the guns
We
laughed at it all
And when
they
They told
us to go
We paid
them no mind
Like
every other time
But
little did we know
Today
I looked
for a sign
With
flames in my hands
A line in
the sand
Between
yours and mine
And it
came
Like fire
from below
Your
greed led the call
My flag
had to fall
But
little did you know
Another
day / your truth will come
You’re
gonna pay for what you’ve done
You’ll
get what’s yours / and face your crime
You’ll
tell them give me back what’s mine
Give me
back what’s mine
I had
never been a coward
I had
never seen blood
You had
sold me an ocean
And I was
lost in the flood
We were
counting on a leader
We were
driven by need
But
couldn’t take temptation
And we
were blinded by greed
You were
steady as a sniper
We were
waiting on a wire
So we
never saw it coming
When you
ran from the fire
You can
try intimidation
And you
can try to ignore
But when
the time comes calling, yeah
You are
gonna get yours
And so
today / your truth has come
You’re
gonna pay for what you’ve done
You’ll
get what’s yours / you’re out of time
And you
will give me back what’s mine
Give me
back what’s mine
