T HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS
THEY ATTACKED MY DREAMS
TO MAKE ME FIT THE SYSTEM
AND THEN THEY RIPPED MY IDEAS
TWISTED THEM, PISSED ON THEM
SOLD THEM OUT TO THE MASSES
CORRUPTED THE SCENES, WRECKED SOME SOULS
BUT I'M HERE AND I STILL STAND

START THE FIGHT!
FUCK THE POWER!
FIGHT IT DOWN!
YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT!
START THE FIGHT!
FUCK THE POWER!
FIGHT IT DOWN!
YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT!

CONFUSED AND RUDE
I GOT VIOLENCE ON MY MIND
AND I WONDER WHERE IT TAKES ME
LIKE THEY'VE PUT POISON IN MY FOOD
I FEEL IT COMING UP INSIDE OF ME
I'M IN A STATE OF ALERT
AT THIS POINT I WOULD CROSS ANY LINE
JUST TO SEE THE LIARS ON THEIR KNEES

I WALK THE STREET
AND I WALK ALONE
I FIGHT THE NORM
WHILE I GROW THE SEED
I SET THE TONE
I KNOW THE PAIN!
I TAKE CONTROL
I'LL FUCK YOU ALL

START THE FIGHT!
FUCK THE POWER!
FIGHT IT DOWN!
YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT!
START THE FIGHT!
FUCK THE POWER!
FIGHT IT DOWN!
YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT!

WHEN YOU'RE A THREAT TO THE STATE
THE STATE BECOMES YOUR ENEMY
AND WHEN MONEY DICTATES JUSTICE
YOUR LIFE IS RULED BY HATE

DO EVERYTHING ON ORDERS???
YOU WANT ME TO DO EVERYTHING ON ORDERS??????
I FEEL LIKE BEING LOCKED INTO SOME BOX
AND THE ONLY REAL WAY OUT
IS THE WAY I'M HEADED: THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE

FIND THE PLACE IN YOU THAT'S STILL YOU!
AND HOLD FAST TO IT
IT CAN HAPPEN ALL OVER THE WORLD
EVERYTHING THEY THROW AT ME WILL FLOW THROUGH ME
AND ALL IT TOOK WAS A HINT FROM A DEAD MAN

I DON'T CARE ABOUT STAYING ALIVE, BUT SURE I CARE HOW I LOOK!
IS IT JUST THE DRUGS? MAYBE IT IS Â…
I WILL BE BETTER OFF IN THE WRONG DIRECTION
WHERE THEY EVEN CAN'T BEGIN TO IMAGINEÂ…

START THE FIGHT!
FUCK THE POWER!
FIGHT IT DOWN!
YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT!
START THE FIGHT!
FUCK THE POWER!
FIGHT IT DOWN!
YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT!
