Otep Battle Ready
KUAN!!
simple souls overload as I explode data banks
'cause the earth & space gave birth to this paleface
supreme -- linguistic -- mental machine
your brain cells swell - the intellects extreme
fire fills my veins as I proclaim my resistance
to the mind-swapping parasites that feed off my existence
as I -- skin the burn to relearn the royal plan
somewhere out beyond the edges in the depths of spirit land
it's authentic, apocalyptic destroyer
damaging challengers -- resurrection, disorder
a monument of crisis - I strike this - your dead
line my nest with your soul -- cleansed in bloodshed
[chorus:]
BATTLE READY!
poets gonna take control
BATTLE READY
souls violate parole
BATTLE READY
violently invade your home
-- breaking the bones
OF THOSE WHO OPPOSE
commanding the mic -- striking up a verb-fest
mass destruction is my function - time to put it to the test
in combat --- attacking since way back
in the days I drew praise for the way that I slain facts
formulating flows in revolutionary science
it's the catastrophic prophet from the anarchist alliance
freaking techniques -- this creature of speech
ewe feels the fury of devastation 'cause ewe ewe tasted defeat
I'm alone on my throne in this universe of fear
royalty divides my soul -- in this role I'm revered
as the pinnacle -- lyrical master -- queen of disaster
I ruin brain fluid -- the UNKNOWN IS WHAT I'M AFTER
[chorus]
shaking up the world -- just like the 2nd coming of Christ
-- when I write -- thrice divine with this goddess sight
words will flow -- wounds will grow
ewe knows -- bones will be exposed from the force that I unload
it's THE SOUL EATER!! -- mic bleeder with the voice of chaos
I got the nectar of the gods flowing from my mental pod
gather the flock -- alarm your block
tell them the shepherds have come & got the keys to unlock
a holy war -- through your veins it courses
more lyrical artillery than the armed forces
supernatural -- styles be volatile
it's the mind manipulator -- the WAR CHILD
[chorus]
[bridge]
COME!
SHADOW SOLDIERS!
we came to defy - living life as a lie
we embryonic satellites need our freedom to fly
TO WATCH DIE! -- agonizing cries are heard in stereo
I'm visualizing battlefield scenarios
in the line of fire -- watching empires fall
into attack position -- ELIMINATE ALL!!!
MY SPECIES!!!
[chorus]
[outro]
MY SPECIES!
NO SURRENDER!
