The Dominant Gene
Pause before I wrap your mouth in gauze
Before I dice you with my claws
Don't even try to shake the cage
I'll break you down right on the stage
Don't make me out to be the bad guy here
This is how it's gotta be
You gotta hear me clearly
Merely just another slave in the mist
Under my control with a leash on your wrist
Never should you ever take a stand to the fist
Last thing you need to do is to get me pissed
So stick to the program, stick to the list
This is how you survive, this is how you exist
What made you think that I would let you have a say?
The captain's chair is occupied commands are under me
And the last thing I need is some clown intruding in
And telling me he's the one to hail
Blinded by your confidence I promise I'll see you fail
So go ahead and raise an army of your own
Don't expect that my cavalry will leave me here alone
Your war is lost so shut your mouth
And kneel to the throne
And kneel to the throne
Step inside the ring and you will see
It isn't in your blood to challenge me but anyway
You're here you threw yourself inside the pit of destruction
While the law of the land will run its course and
You'll cease to function
Gonna make you wish (You had the mind of a zombie)
Gonna turn your senate (To a one man army)
I won't let you look away (As your body degrades)
Get a look at the king (Before it all fades)
I can't forgive you for your failures and transgressions
Who am I to fuck with laws of natural selection?
I'm the dominant gene
So go ahead and raise an army of your own
Don't expect that my cavalry will leave me here alone
Your war is lost so shut your mouth
And kneel to the throne
I told you
I already told you
I already told you
I already told you not to play this
Game
Now I gotta do the dirty work of body disposal
Why play?
Your hand wasn't worth a goddamn dime
The plan's so bad it was a fucking crime
Why I gotta win so easy every time?
Stand and raise an army of your own
Don't expect that my cavalry will leave me here alone
Your war is lost so shut your mouth
And kneel to the throne
The throne
The throne
The throne
The throne
Before I dice you with my claws
Don't even try to shake the cage
I'll break you down right on the stage
Don't make me out to be the bad guy here
This is how it's gotta be
You gotta hear me clearly
Merely just another slave in the mist
Under my control with a leash on your wrist
Never should you ever take a stand to the fist
Last thing you need to do is to get me pissed
So stick to the program, stick to the list
This is how you survive, this is how you exist
What made you think that I would let you have a say?

And telling me he's the one to hail

And kneel to the throne

The throne
The throne
The throne
