Anthrax Tribute EP

Caught In A Mosh

Why don't you listen to me when I try to talk to you
Stop thinking of yourself, for just a second fool
Shut up, shut up, I don't wanna hear your mouth
Your mother made a monster, now get the hell out of my house

Can't stand it for another day I ain't gonna live my life this way
Cold sweat, my fists are clenching stomp, stomp, stomp, the idiot convention
Which one of these words don't you understand ?
Talking to you, is like clapping with one hand
What is it ? Caught in a mosh
What is it ? Caught in a mosh
What is it ? Caught in a mosh
What is it ? Caught in a mosh

Don't tell me how to do my job
There's the door, your name's on the knob
You're always in the way, like a beast on my back
Were you dropped as a baby, cause brains you lack

Think before you speak or suffer, for your words
Learn, to give respect that others, give to you the best you can do
Hey Man I'm trying to reason but you don't understand
Talking in circles, we'll never get it straight just you and me in our theatre of hate

Indians

We all see black and white when it comes to someone else's fight
No one ever gets involved apathy can never solve

FORCED OUT brave and mighty
STOLEN LAND  they can't fight it
HOLD ON To pride and tradition
Even though they know how much their lives are really missing
WE'RE DISSING THEM on reservation a hopeless situation
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry for the Indians

Respect is something that you earn our Indian brother's getting burned
Original American turned into, second class citizen

Love the land and fellow man peace is what we strive to have
Some folks have none of this hatred and prejudice

TERRITORY, It's just the body of the nation
The people that inhabit it make its configuration
PREJUDICE, Something we all can do without
Cause a flag of many colors is what this land's all about

Who Cares Wins

Close your eyes to the horror close your eyes to the pain
When you live in a box no one knows your name
Living in the street moms and kids with nothing to eat
Welfare hotels who says there's no place called hell

I can't see you I can't hear you
You don't see me you couldn't be me
Who cares wins
There but for the grace of god
There but for the grace of god
Who cares, who cares, who cares, who cares
There but for the grace of god
There but for the grace of god
Go you or I open your eyes
You don't see me you couldn't be me
Who cares wins

Invisible could be my name your excuses are so lame
Real pleas fall on deaf ears look away when I'm near
Freezing cold in winter's heat burning up can be a treat
Blisters breaking on my feet at least I get a subway seat

Self help and preservation not now I'm on vacation
Priority is you and screw all those around you
Now's the time for you to share indifference you have to care
Deep inside you know it's true how do I get through to you
Open your eyes to the horror open your eyes to the pain
When you live in a box no one knows your name

Room For One More

Fix the mental, as if that changes anything
Your heart is cured now, you're normal once again
One confession, you thought that's all it took
But redemption, doesn't let you off the hook

One of us can't erase the past to change who he would be
One of us on a whim would act, then look for sympathy not from me
Hear me say one more chance to believe in that you can even the score
One more place at the table always room for one more room for one more

Thing evil, is that just your normal gig
Fueled by hatred, happy as a stuffed pig
You're so lonely, everyone around you reeks
Of indifference, thriving in their apathy

Your schism, my distress your failure is my success
Squeezed out, kept me down what goes around comes around
I can wait you out patience is my virtue
Call it payback, call it proper grounds
What goes around always comes around

Think About An End

Wake up on fire every day and I never say goodbye
Pre-determined destiny I've never been afraid to die
Ever since I was a kid I've seen things my own way, with my own eyes
With my hands I turn the screws in my life I decide
You're bent on under the will of endless dogmatic restraints
I will rage against the machine spewing out blind faith
Think about an end you can live with think about an end I can give you
Think about an end that would satisfy
Think about an end you can live with think about an end I can give you
Think about an end

The only thing that's touched my soul ever in my life is love
Tangible and physical visible unlike your god above
You're bent on under the will of endless dogmatic restraints
I will rage against the machine spewing out blind faith
Think about an end you can live with think about an end I can give you
Think about an end that would satisfy
Think about an end you can live with think about an end I can give you
Think about an end

Where is all the mercy on which your faith has been built
All I see is hatred caused by years of inbred guilt
Resurrecting genuflecting killing in the name
You disavow the right to choose it's medievally insane
Your god is dead or doesn't care tell me which one's worse:
An uncaring god or knowing that your alone on this earth?
Wake up on fire every day and I never say goodbye
Pre-determined destiny I've never been afraid to die
You're bent on under the will of endless dogmatic restraints I will scream, will rage

Gridlock

It's a long time, a long time coming you tell me how you think I should be
It's so easy you tell me what people want from me
Well I'll just be myself it's the only way I can be 
But you don't see you accuse, abuse integrity 
You don't know one damn thing about me not one damn thing

Build me up and then you tear me down curse my name when I'm not around
You're so hard until the truth is found what goes around always comes around
And it's a long time, long time a long time coming
A long time, long time a long time coming a vicious circle
In your face I'll come running try and stop me
A long time, much too long and I'm comin'

Try and stop me I like to keep my friends around me close
But my enemies closer friends accept me for just who I am
Not someone I'm supposed to be or something they expect for free
Do you know me I live with myself, I know my place
Wipe that bullshit smile off your face the show is over

You and me are gonna take a walk I think it's time we had a little talk
I said, you and me are gonna take a walk and we're gonna do more than walk and talk
Let me see how you think I should be you think it's so easy?
Put yourself on trial everyday against a hung jury
You don't know a thing about me you believe the hype you see
But in my heart God knows I'll be true to what my life will bring

Keep It In The Family

Mankind the public enemy's not the man who speaks his mind
The public enemy's the man that goes and acts blind searching for an answer that he'll never find
An action from reaction and you can't make a retraction once you've put your head out
And then you're blue in the face as you try to state your case 
You can think with your dick but it can't shout

I try to understand what the hell is going on I can't imagine how things ever got so far gone
You separatists, say you want your own state I'll give them a state, a state of unconsciousness
Retribution, no solution, constitution discrimination, through the nation, raining hatred
I yell, when there's schism you must rebel I yell, so you'll hear
I yell, I refuse to live, in, your hell I am what you fear
I'm the truth, I don't keep it in the family live your life, take someone else
Keep it in the family the real world's outside your door
You can't keep it in the family you've got the longest way to fall
Keep it in the family when you keep it in the family
Keep it in the family I'm the thing that you most fear
I don't keep it in the family I am the truth you won't hear
Keep it in the family you can't keep it in the family
You've got the longest way to fall keep it in the family

Don't even try to tell me what you think is right when to you blacks are niggers and Jews are kikes
And you expect to be taken seriously but your actions, they're more than curiously
Juvenile, you emulate what you hate and you don't even know why you feel this way
Because Daddy hated this and Mommy hated that 
And your own ability to reason is like a tire gone flat

Acting out of pure cold hatred because of what another's race is
Colour of another's face is different, and your own frustrations
Taking on a violent nature full of hate, so full of hate
You'd kill a man is that your fate your street becomes a police state
Why the hell do you hate hate, hate I'm not gonna stand for it
Someone's gonna pay for it I yell, we rebel
We're the truth and we won't keep it in the family
Live your life, take someone else
