MORTIFIX LYRICS

1. Darkened Truth

[Music: R. Sterling, S. Simpson, T. Taylor, lyric: S. Hollingsworth]

Fathers of my country
Sent a calling card today
Congratulations, green's your color
I'm shipped ten leagues away
Killing families shed no tears
My soul's as black as pitch
Sam's made a killing machine of me
Adds color to the myth

Spreading fear
In my name
Innocence lost
Never the same
Corrupting my morals
Destroying my youth
Can you deny it?
The darkened truth

Bloodless, soulless
Weak from death
So many loved ones fall
All goodbyes have now been said
But I don't heed my call
Once I played the citizen's part
Careless in my life
Now I live so close to death
Put through this pain and strife

Spreading fear
In my name
Innocence lost
Never the same
Corrupting my morals
Destroying my youth
Can you deny it?
The darkened truth

Why must I die?
For my country's pride
Freed now at last

[Solo: S. Simpson]

Spreading fear
In my name
Innocence lost
Never the same
Corrupting my morals
Destroying my youth
Can you deny it?
The darkened truth

2. Not Your God

[Music: R. Sterling, S. Simpson, T. Taylor, lyric: S. Hollingsworth]

Enslaved
You've worshiped lies
To a face you don't even know
Mindless
Believe what you read
Your life you can't control
If seeing is always believing
You don't have good beliefs
A life been based on everything
That is seen

I'm not your God
I'm just an ordinary man
I live my life
Like anyone
So many battles
I haven't won
I'm not your God
I'm just an ordinary man
I live my life
Like anyone
So many battles
I haven't won

Depraved of unknown facts
An ignorant naïve tool
Forgotten a buried intellect
Playing the media's fool
If wisdom comes with age
You better grow up fast
Know what you know
Or you'll never last

I'm not your God
I'm just an ordinary man
I live my life
Like anyone
So many battles
I haven't won
I'm not your God
I'm just an ordinary man
I live my life
Like anyone
So many battles
I haven't won

Can you believe?
That what you see
It isn't real
Because from what is seen
Isn't true
Obsessed with the things we say and do
Media dressed up in
Their fucking lies
Truth unacknowledged
Cut down to size

[Solo: S. Simpson]

Enslaved
You've worshiped lies
To a face you don't even know
Mindless
Believe what you read
Your life you can't control
If seeing is always believing
You don't have good beliefs
A life been based on everything
That is seen

I'm not your God
I'm just an ordinary man
I live my life
Like anyone
So many battles
I haven't won
I'm not your God
I'm just an ordinary man
I live my life
Like anyone
So many battles
I haven't won

3. Now I Hate

[Music: R. Sterling, S. Simpson, T. Taylor, lyric: S. Hollingsworth]

Go
Brutalized in an early time
Harbored hate
All was mine
Spreading like some dark disease
In my mind killing with such ease
Never knew I could hate
Psychosomatic all too late
Parents inbreed beating frenzy
Serial killer their deaths I envied

Now I hate
Tormented soul
Now I hate
Your life I stole
Feeling like I lived two lives
One I'm normal
Two they die
Doesn't seem it's really me
Looking back it's a twisted dream
Wonder why I like to kill?
Could it be I'm mentally ill?
Killed my parents
They almost killed me
Twisted, diluted
Dark prodigy

Now I hate
Tormented soul
Now I hate
Your life I stole
Hate

I can't stop
This killing machine
Blind to hate I've seen

[Solo: S. Simpson]

Now I hate
Tormented soul
Now I hate
Your life I stole
Hate

4. Unity

[Music: R. Sterling, T. Taylor, lyric: S. Hollingsworth]

Pledge allegiance to the flag
Colored symbol
Of our unity
Watch them now
The colors fade
Hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal
Or is it lies on which this country's made
It doesn't matter what we're made of
Color skin or where we came from
Just as long as you know what's right
Watch my brothers beaten and burned
Equality should be born not learned
When will it end?
It can't remain the same

Bigotry prejudice hatred running deep
Paying all the prices for the vices we keep
Dividing our cultures pulls society apart
Unite all the masses
Before we fall apart
Power in numbers strengthens us all
United we stand
Divided we fall
Work to together to better our community
Help one another
Do it all with unity

Looking back on so many years
Manifest destiny
Trail of fear
A genocide
Callous to a whole race
How can we barely go on living?
Infected morals
A hate sustaining
How can it die when it's filling your soul?
Killing a man for his pigment
Your 'cause and argument so illegitimate
A closed mind
Peace will never find

Bigotry prejudice hatred running deep
Paying all the prices for the vices we keep
Dividing our cultures pulls society apart
Unite all the masses
Before we fall apart
Power in numbers strengthens us all
United we stand
Divided we fall
Work to together to better our community
Help one another
Do it all with unity

Hundreds of years
Kept hidden within captivity
A product of our self-made insanity
Insanity

[Solo: S. Simpson]

Bigotry prejudice hatred running deep
Paying all the prices for the vices we keep
Dividing our cultures pulls society apart
Unite all the masses
Before we fall apart
Power in numbers strengthens us all
United we stand
Divided we fall
Work to together to better our community
Help one another
Do it all with unity
