1.	Beyond H8 04:21	lyrics	buy track
You have no idea how you make me feel Like a bat to the face a fucking disgrace Stop running your mouth behind my back You are the pussification of a cunt-like man Get ready for the rodeo…shit kicking for a 1 man show My fist your face, fist face, fist face I get excited just thinking about it I wanna smash your head with a mallet Yeah of course it’s about me I treat this like therapy Fave down in bowl of shit Yeah you can suck my dick… Pre-chorus: You make it seem so innocent You mother fucker you… Your kindness is so pertinent To what you always do…. Chorus: Call it what you want you set the tone Face down in a bowl of shit….you’re on your own Solo This is beyond hate, stronger than love Rabid dog in a crate Parading around like a crack whore Telling everybody that you’re hardcore White collars and stripes, you fake your such a fraud You’ll never be like me could never do my job… Pre chorus Chorus x 2
2.	Powers That Be 07:03	lyrics	buy track
Pedophiles and rapists and sexual sadists Scumbags that rule the streets Killers running rampant violent entrapment Our faith in justice….obsolete Media lying all along Perpetuation of worldly wrongs Division of the people yet we look away Save up your anger…for another day… Keeping us down Deaf dumb and Blind Held under thumb x 2 Controlling our minds CHORUS Gather up the time has come Stand together fight as one Utopia now in sight This is our God given right!! X 2 Arsonists and anarchists ANTIFA sporting terrorists, Those politics and hypocrites… Yeah Those are the Powers that Be x
3.	Skin 04:41 video	lyrics	buy track
I was born in a gutter Holes in my shoes Beat down and ridiculed I was born to lose “Just a punk assed white boy” Was my pseudonym Victim of circumstance Due to the color of my skin x3 CHORUS Black or white We all bleed red The essence of a man comes from within Divide and conquer The government Wants to separate based on the color of our skin. Ghettos are the same no matter where you are Filthy run down slums you can see them from afar. Cultivating killers, politically unjust Segregate the people by the color of their skin x 3 BRIDGE All this pain and suffering Inside the human zoo Political manipulation Through and through x2 BREAKDOWN They’re building up the wall They wanna watch us fall….in line x 2 CHORUS Just a punk assed white boy I’m from the streets Even I can see we’re heading For defeat Cultivating killers Armed to the teeth Divided we stand, divided we're weak x 3 BRIDGE
4.	Drowning In Darkness 05:56 video	lyrics	buy track
In this street of broken dreams A million faces I have barely seen the light of day In this trap of my depression I sleep the day away Somehow I put on a smiling face PRE CHORUS Losing my faith Losing my mind Falling from grace Running out of time CHORUS How many times have I layed like wreckage on the floor How many times have I said no more Yet I’m drowning and I’m swimming for the shore I guess I’ll see another day once more… BRIDGE Grab the bottle, take the pills Snort that line, get your fill God is watching, God is the Do enough, set me free Me and my little creatures we’ve formed a bond I’d say We live in sickness, that’s ok. Living down here on the frontlines They’re all my friends they say Turn my back and I turn in to pray… PRE CHORUS CHORUS BREAKDOWN Medic start the car, 911 CPR Fentanyl F 19/ ICD/T36 PRE CHORUS CHORUS
5.	Space Urchin 04:05	lyrics	buy track
Gliding on an astro plane Did a pile of nyborg Kick it into hyperdrive Cruising with my space whores I am the lord of the multiverse I search thr darkness for light Treasures are scattered few and far between Capitalizing on your plight CHORUS Space Urchin, hunting, searching Space Urchin, descend from the sky Space Urchin, fossil of the past Space Urchin…. Bridge I’ll suck out your eyes RIP out your spine Display all the trophies that thrill the divine Divinity, the one that you seek…. Has found you in the Darkest sea….x 2 CHORUS I’ll suck out your eyes RIP out your spine, suck out your eyes Gliding on an astro plane Searching with my whoes….
6.	Scumlord 06:06	lyrics	buy track
I’m looking for the answers To justify my reasons A turning point that lead me down this road Father was a junkie Mother was a whore He loved to chase the dragon and she died on the floor I’m your living scumbag, I’m the one you hate You will always need me, I will watch you incubate You don’t have to worry, I will always be there Your night in shining armour at your noble service haha Baby please don’t leave me you know theres nothing better You that I do all of this for you I’ll be your Jesus Christ in a ship of fools You can kick tomorrow…c’mon let’s get high Hunter and the hunted, out on my trap line I know just what to look for, you’d have to be fucking blind In the concrete jungle, my natural habitat I work these streets like a fucking fiend I’m a holly roller with impunity….yeah HIT ME……. I see you dealing on my line You know I fucking lose my mind You know I’m strapped right to the teeth Let me tell you something So many times before… If come you come up fast, slipping through the cracks You’d better watch your back I tasted just a little bit And I got high on my supply You warned me from a little kid Now I’m like you and doomed to die… Now you know my story, a glorious affair Another one will fill the hole of the one who’s always there Summon all your demons for the final ride to hell I’ll end it all with one big push…goodbye, farewell.
7.	Freedomless Speech 05:49 video	lyrics	buy track
Your 1st amendment’s out the door Your right to speak is a right no more Censorship for the sheep today Another flock is led astray An uncertain future A constant plight As time goes on you lose the right No free thinking no voice of your own Reverting back to the age of stone CHORUS Helpless and hopeless Utopia has vanished When genocide and death no longer seem outlandish The tides have turned Hate and divisions what they teach The lore of Freedomless Speech x4 Communication a thing of the past Demonization to speak a criminal act Politically correct a meaningless term History repeats we never learn Archaic Government with plans to silence us Disarm the populace so they don’t kick up a fuss Put your faith in us…. Speak only if you’re spoken to Shut you’re mouth and listen This is the arm of the Government Whistle blower, nothing lower Got no right to full disclosure In the eyes of the Government CHORUS FREEDOM……..LESS
8.	Goodbye To Misery 05:00	lyrics	buy track
I woke up from a manifestation Am I still alive? Are you still alive? I’ve been living in a clouded reality, surrounding me And haunting me… I’ve been a sinner, I’ve been a saint Killed myself inside, so I could recreate Just like a cancer I cut you from my life You fucked me up in so many ways I feel I’m justified You look so peaceful laying in your dress Asphyxiation is a peaceful way to rest AND if your God is judging me Tell him there’s no regrets…but in my defense You were a bitch to the core No whining and bitching no more Serenity, I’m truly free in this 4 x 10 Somehow I grew up here, don’t know how or when CHORUS And now I’m truly free Goodbye to misery x2 Murder was the case Pillow smothered face Bitching and nagging x 4
9.	I Am The Wolf 06:45	lyrics	buy track
Ashes to embers that burn through the night Gleaming, the flames that are burning bright The air is so frigid my breath like a fog Something is stirring, down by the bog BRIDGE My spine will arch, my claws will extract The hair will cover my body in black Wait for a moment then howl at the moon In the dead of the forest I wait in my tomb Fear in your eye, when I appear The horror apparent and frighteningly clear The myth and the legend are all coming true I ache with a hunger, this gift is for you Repeat bridge The hunt is on the rednecks unleashed All of them wanting to slay this vicious beast Bloodhounds are barking, they stalk on my trail In the light of the moon the attempt is so pale Repeat bridge A shot is fired my leg has been hit Blood flows profusely and wont seem to quit Through valleys and cedars I plot my attack To ambush these hunters, there’s no turning back CHORUS I am the wolf, the bringer of death With just one bite I’ll claim your last breath A vigilant creature that lives without fear The cycle repeats itself year after year I am the wolf inhumanely strong Shape shifting in silence it moves all along No silver stake will drive trough my chest No bullet of silver will lay me to rest I spring from the trees, men start to scream Ripping through flesh my teeth glisten and gleam Blood soaked and ravaged, they soon will realize Psychotic dysfunction, I wont stop till they’re dead… RIP OFF THEIR HEADS!!!! Bridge
10.	On The Other Side 01:02	lyrics	buy track
My love, my light, it’s time to say goodbye I’m gonna miss you As I stand and I watch you die I’ll never forget you But I know I’ll see you in the other side Goodbye, goodbye I’ll see you in the other side x2
