Reptile

In here a tale of a boy who reached the masses
His name was Billy and he liked to get high
A normal guy 'til the green-skinned apocalypse, a do or die

There must be something in the water (besides fluoride and shit)
Where he lie, where he lie!
He threw that gaping brain asunder
When he realized, when he realized!
It's coming down

We've sown thrones and brought the kings down to knees!
Hello, here we are, salutations!
And every day that you wake!
Is a gift that you take from the gods!
That's right

You came from the trees and we altered the genes!
Here you are, all you fuck with is wages!
You had the day but you pissed it away!
I think it's time that we show our ways!

Now shed that violence all over!
Let mayhem in the streets!
From mountain top to oceans!
We own your every need!
It's coming down!

With every breath that we take we can hear that sound!
Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the ground!
With every breath that we take we can hear that sound!
A green-skinned apocalypse, a do or die

So Billy heeds the call of fathers
Release high through these eyes

Embraces the qi and he praises the weeds!
Holding out for the day he can face them
And every day that he trains is a slap in the face to the gods!
God damn!

Shutting out politics, viewing beings as equals!
Ain't it funny how that makes sense!?
You had the floor but you gave it a bore, now it's equal
Can we clean that slate!?

Now shed that violence all over!
Let mayhem in the streets!
From mountain top to oceans!
We own your every need!
It's coming down!

Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the ground!
It's coming down!

Follow a trail of the ones who bleed the masses
Follow behind the reptilian eyes
A normal day in the green-skinned apocalypse, a do or die

There must be something in the water
Where he lie, where he lie!
He threw that gaping brain asunder
When he realized, when he realized!

National alliance and he leads the fight!
No class, no race, just fucking violence in their eyes!
A plan for human survival takes to flight!
The good that's left and all they cherish stands to die!

Is this the end of all we know?
They all float woah!
Is this the end of all we know?
Wasted our lives for war!? Woah

Float away!
Do we feed the reaction!?
Do we stay!?
Do we all float away!?

Do you think you know who you are?
Did you think you had it all worked out well?
And who could believe
Those dead-eyed soldiers?
Red sky rainfalls
The winter beams no beauty!
Just cold-eyed monsters and bare branches

You can wail to the moon!
But that'll just make things worse
They see you
They see me
They see all!

No children in the streets, where do they play
When freedom here has been revoked?
The ground which all their fathers soaked

No medicine
The scarcity of nourishment is evident
And where's our god?
Have we seen that side of heaven yet?
No

Rich, poor, clutching to their sheets in horror!
Is there an answer? (No!)
Is there somebody who can take away!
All the present dismay!?
Bury the light, pray through night!

Mayhem in the streets, no order!
Is there an answer!? (No!)
Is there somebody who can take away!
All the present dismay!?
Bury the light, pray through night!

You buried that, buried that light!
Now pray through night!
What has come down is littered all around in your sight!
Is littered in your sight!

The claim they stake
The land from us they take
The claim they stake (They stake!)
The land from us they take (They take!)

The craft he shakes!
A race within his wake!
Victory alone became his above the soil we know!

A grave is laid!
A man within its cage!
Victory alone became his down in the soil he owns!

Soil we know becomes our own home

Soil we know becomes our own home
Now we're staring at the ground together
This is not the first time or the last time

Soil we know becomes our own home
Staring at the ground together
Now we're staring at the ground together

Soil we own becomes ours!
(Order back in what we know!)
Soil we own becomes ours!
Now one with the soil we own!

Soil we own becomes ours!
(Order back in what we know!)
Soil we own becomes ours!
Now one with the soil we own! (Soil we own!)
