Intro - Buildings Burn
03:38
|
|

The crowd is screaming for reforms
Snipers on rooftops buildings burn
People ripped open
Shot at point blank
Bodies driven over by tanks
Government officials
Declaring war
To serve and protect
But not your own
All those wounded left behind
It’s the end of humanity
As we close our eyes
Bodies are loaded in a truck
Add some oil and then light ‘em up
Enjoy the fire one more time
Lives thrown away in the blink of an eye
Western countries support corruption
Black gold, too big of a seduction
Democracy pushed aside for the profit
We look away no matter what the cost is
People catching bullets
But they do not back down
They always said it’d happen in the future
But it’s happening right now
The world is burning
Your system failed
Only power to the people
Will prevail

On The Attack

So we’re back again
In the jack studio
Our District
No this ain’t coolio
Doing our thing
Playing music we love
Going ’95 style
And we feel so young
We missed this for way too long
Fuck the hype, let the flow go on
Took us several years to get on track
Now represent like a sniper attack
It’s whack how you crack
Under the tension
We don’t spit this message
We don’t mention
We don’t need you
Did it by ourselves
You never were there
Now you’re in hell
Breaking bones and kicking faces
We are on the attack
Headplants and stagedives
We are on the attack
Drinking beers and smoke some weed
We are on the attack
Pissdrunk and then fight some more
We are on the attack
So you better watch your back
No More Competition
As the drums start to roll
Feel the pressure build
As the blood starts to flow
No more playing games right now
This is what it is all about
No More Competition strikes again
With a win
We were in
Now we’re taking this out
For all to know and hear
Without fear
We are here
It’s a part time job
But the style is hot
You’re not
Get out the club
We’re taking over
Like a shot
We fire breaks
In your face
A disgrace
You were weak
Kicking faces
We are on the attack

The Law
03:20
|
|
||
Divide and conquer
To rule the masses
Obedience
Deadliest of all gasses
It’s crawling in
Unseen and silent
Only discovered
When all is decided
When it’s too fucking late
When you’re facedown
Hanging on by a thread
You might as well slip
Since you’re already dead
With a broken spine you can’t move
With a broken will there’s nothing you can do
You’ll just be content with the bullshit given
Tell me, is that the life you thought you’d be living?
The choice is up to you
Will you stand or will you fall
In this world, the strong
Are the ones who dictate the law
Never listen to a word they say
Remember to live your life day by day
Break the system designed to keep you numb
Inform yourself, ‘cause they will keep you dumb
The media and laws are all the same
Part of a scheme to fuck with your brain
To them it’s all a game, it’s the same in the end
They can’t lose and you can’t win
To them it’s all a game, it’s the same in the end
They can’t lose and you can’t win
You’ll never win
Break the fuck out

Empty
03:48
|
|

Empty eyes stare at me
Don’t recognize the person that I came to be
Savage and lost
Lived life and payed the cost
Breaking down walls
For the wrong cause
Surrounded by beauty
Only feeling rage
See this war I wage
Breaking down existence
To the ground
Longing for a day
Without a sound
Without a whisper
Without a thought
Burning holes in my soul
Is all it brought
As I sought for redemption
As I sought for life
I only feel contempt
In this heart of mine
I let it all slip
I let it all fall apart
Tell me
Where did I go wrong
Did I take a wrong turn
Coz it seems that I’m the only one
Left behind

Left Behind
04:32
|
|
||
Walking in circles to stay on solid ground
Living on borrowed time afraid of our own sound
Of our own shadow and demons of the past
Every thoughts of evolution feels like a shotgun blast
As we throw ourselves back in time
I’m caught in a world that is not mine
I’ve come to an age where I think too much
My mind is still restless but it’s harder to bust
Yet the pressure grows and eats me alive
It leaves me bitter, I’m left behind
Punching walls just to feel alive
Running forever to get the vibe
It’s never enough, I got to break out
I am so restless, without any doubt
Jumping over borders, I never fall
With hardened fists I smash through it all
All is dark and covered with clouds
So I follow the light, it’s my way out
As we throw ourselves back in time
I’m caught in a world that is not mine
I’ve come to an age where I think too much
My mind is still restless but it’s harder to bust
Yet the pressure grows and it eats me alive
It leaves me bitter, I’m left behind
As we throw ourselves back in time
I’m caught in a world that is not mine
That is not mine that is not mine
I’m caught in a world that is not mine
That is not mine that is not mine
I’m caught in a world that is not mine
As we throw ourselves back in time
I’m caught in a world that is not mine
That is not mine that is not mine
I’m caught in a world that is not mine

No More Competiton
02:44

Wretched lives combined
They say all is good but nothing’s ever fine
This heavy heart of mine
Lost all sense of emotion over time
I’ve been fighting the world since day one
Saw all the flaws, try to correct each and everyone
I was pure at heart
But shoved everyone away
There were good intentions
They all led astray…
Can’t allow myself
To get stuck in the past
There’s barely any good
That will ever last
Except my love
My passion, few friends
But then again
I always seem to start fighting again
We never gave a fuck about all you ever said to us
The spirit’s still here
But the mind is at ease
Beliefs still strong
Still fighting the disease
Now older and harder
I can see more clear
I will always remain
NMC
It ‘s for life

Arrogant
01:41
|
|

I’m an arrogant fuck
And that won’t change
I’ve been taught
To stay true to my ways
So keep your complaints
They don’t affect me
I will do as I please
I’m living free
