Lyrics
Verse 1:
This creation, this one thing, that's bumpin', still jumpin'.
A strength that reaches far beyond, and still produces.
Introduces people on the rampage, so 'fuck you' and your cure.
It's the selfish tyranny of evil men that control this gen(eration).
Bridge 1:
To what avail is this plot to keep us separate?
Perhaps if we are blinded, we won't make the connection?
Or, not to mention the fact that, as united, they fall.
That's my intention. That's my intention.
Up on a wall you belong for the shit you've done.
I never thought I'd have to result to carrying a gun.
But, it doesn't matter 'cause when that shit takes the stage,...
...yeah bitch, I show my rage.
Chorus:
So, can't you see control freak?...
...That's what you've always been.
Can't you see control freak?...
...That's what you've always been.
Can't you see control freak?...
...That's what you've always been.
It's somethin' that you've got to be.
It's somethin' that you really need to stop!
Verse 2:
No more! No more! The core...
...of problems in our lives is what we've got inside...
...thanks to brainwashing, bonafide mother fucker's.
Look inside! We are strong and there is no soul...
...except for the subversions to mother-fucking come.
Resistance! Resistants! High threshold persistence.
What makes you think that us, as a group, should hold your hand?
When we sit back we laugh at you as we stand.
We don't need your comfort when what you teach them is fear.
Don't hypnotize, you can't hypnotize me.
Hypnotize, you can't hypnotize me.
Fuck you! You can't hypnotize me.
Break:
Falling down...
...falling down.
Falling down...
...falling down.
Falling down, you're straight, falling down.
Falling down...
Outro:
So why don't you back the fuck up now then you'll see; you'll know.
You'll throw exceptions, perceptions, rejections galore.
With all those restrictions you expect our minds to soar?
You want me to see things your way?
Yeah? Fuck that! Fuck you!
