about

A song about being a zombie in the world...

lyrics

(Vinny Steez)
we live in a world where our decisions become our future
I just want you to take a step back, look at the bigger picture
we've got nuclear plants falling to stage 2
A loss of power have you thinking "what did they really do?"
Assume the jets leavin streams all up in the sky
A mist of toxins fallin down, leavin us to die
We breathe it in, then you hear all the people cry
"They killin us softly!" open up your eyes
The worst pain in your life
Killin your kids or your wife
Constantly worried if you're gonna make through the night
Duckin and dodgin the slightest scratch or a bite
The earth's turnin to hell, not goin down without a fight
Last enemy to be destroyed is death
I'mma fight for it all down to my last breath
I don't really care if I end up like the rest
I'm a survivor why don't you tell me what's next

(Black Socks)
I am cradled tightly by the hand of death
And nightly I can feel its breath
It gets closer by the step
Hollow is the man there's nothing left
Up in his chest or even mental. A mindless drone
Experimental clone is how the fabric is sewn
Through the media they're feedin ya these lies
[Disguised by coat and ties] - ?
In a fear that you might die
The human alibi
Now the dead walk the earth
Contaminated at birth
But what's a baby worth when I slaughter infected for daily work
And how can society rely on me if you're just a product
Wrapped and boxed up for profit
You couldn't stop it if you saw it
use your logic
guns, violence, marshal law is now the prophet
religion created martyrs, firestarters for the apocalypse
banana clips loaded quick
Holstered at the hip
This epidemic will never quit

(eddie lion)
Woke up in the mornin with a pain in my head
alcohol on my breath and my eyes blood red
Thinkin all about the world's inevitable death,
but the hell on earth is real so I'm ready for what's next
So I'll
set free the shackled
and I'll
break off the chains
while I
tear up foundations
these "homes" need change
viola!
watch me turn definite into the unexplained
I just need an army to walk with me through the fray
So I'll gather every poor soul
Bleeding through the world alone
Give'em all the deadliest weapon around, I'll give them hope
So the shine in their eyes can be a beacon for
the destiny I've always wanted written in my horoscope
So I'mma walk up to the front lines when I stand up
cuz I don't wanna be a zombie to these bad ones
And I'mma scream so loudly from the top of bad lungs and scream for every single spirit that once had love
