#46: Strength of My Life - P.O.D.

Strength of My Life
P.O.D.

Genre: Nu Metal



Yo! Eternal rhythms in your system so clear.
No negative take your isms stay cleared
We keep it lovely, give you want you want hear (no you won't hear)
And Matisyahu in the house, stand clear.
P.O.D. in the house, stand clear.
If Jah is for me, tell me whom I gon' fear? (no I won't fear)
And Jah of Jacob, deserving of my love
And God of Isaac, bring blessings from above
Hashem of Abraham will show me the way
I go down on my knees and this is what I pray.

Strength Of My Life, whom shall I dread?
When them evildoers approach to devour my flesh.
Even if there would be an army against me,
My heart would not fear.

Steer clear from weird vibes.
Chuck a spear these evil guys must realize,
Even if there would rise a war against me.
In this I trust, it's a must.
Elevated is my head, above my enemy.
Surround me with the song of glory
(Yeah, Song of glory, Yeah, ohhh)

Take away the scales from my eyes
Anoint your love upon my life
Have mercy on my soul and hear me when I cry
Do not abandon me, and don't forsake me
Lead me on the path of integrity

Even if there would be an army against me,
My heart would not fear.
Strength Of My Life, whom shall I dread?
When them evildoers approach to devour my flesh.

Back them up against the wall, stumble and fall then battle y'all
And stand tall, show me favor when I call Oh-oh
Back them against the wall, stumble and them fall
Battle y'all and stand call, show me favor when I call
Oh-oh-oh, yo, Matisyahu, P.O.D.
Eternally, with his majesty
Dwelling in the songs of glory

#45: The Awakening - Demon Hunter

The Awakening
Demon Hunter

Genre: Metalcore



Editor's Note: These lyrics may not be 100% valid. I'm getting conflicting lyrics from different sites, but I went through and corrected them where I saw it was needed. Again, I'm not certain if I fixed them completely or not.


Fall into the flood of your awakening
Drown. You're just a trace of what I used to be

Waging the battle for the appreciation you'll never win
Behold the army that will hearken with open souls
A tiny voice of pester softer than a drop of a pin
And so naive thinking you were
The source you told
I was composing the beginning before you had begun
Where did you sharped such a tongue
For the sound you spill
I want the honor for the favor that I've already won
Without the ignorant deduction
That you reveal

Give me the pain of something real
No empty notion, I want to see the pressure rising
Give in a way that I can feel
When you disgrace me I want to see your eyes burn

Fall into the flood of your awakening
Drown. You're just a trace of what I used to be

You wrote the words you couldn't
Stomach manifesting with breath
I read the thoughts you never
Questions would show me your face
If confrontation were to wake and
Rear it's ugly head
I get the feeling you'd be wanting it all erased
This simple gossip is your only definition of life
And what a vacant purpose taking it to your grave
There is no threat of loss in
Hearing the slant you cry
Oh what a fool to think you fell
On the mass you crave

Give me the pain of something real
No empty notion, I want to see the pressure rising
Give in a way that I can feel
When you disgrace me I want to see your eyes burn

Fall into the flood of your awakening
Drown. You're just a trace of what I used to be

Awaken from the delusion of validity
Awaken into the truth of how it used to be
Wake up

Fall into the flood of your awakening
Drown. You're just a trace of what I used to be

Awaken

Notice

Unfortunately, due to certain issues, I will have less time to remember to update this blog. Thus, temporarily, there will be no guarantee of 'weekly minimum' updates. I plan to just update it whenever I remember it exists and happen to have a song in mind to add. For now, however, I have no song in mind, and it's the end of this week.

My apologies to anyone who actually checks this.. even though I have no idea who you may be. :P

#44: Bounce - Thousand Foot Krutch

Bounce
Thousand Foot Krutch

Genre: Rock



Verse 1
We come rushing through your stereo system,
into your ear canal, like the alignment of the solar system
Have you forgotten about the days when,
We just wanted to rock, 'cause we like it that way, and
No more hate, no more lies, no more politics,
So sick of fakes, who cry, over copied riffs,
This is the day, that we rise, and we conquer it,
Raise your mics to the sky, like apocalypse

Chorus:
Everyone Bounce, show me what it's all about,
Don't scream just Bounce, 'cause we're takin' over now
it's TFK, we rock the party,
and keep the party jumpin'
In an old school way

Verse 2:
Situation restless, like someone tryin'
to sneek up on the guest list,
play for a team that's called "not to mess with",
And check out the scenario, let the sound ya hear, control your stereo
Turn it up, and let the people know,
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go,
this is the day, that we rise, and we Conquer it,
raise our mics to the sky, like apocalypse

Chorus 2:
Everyone Bounce, show me what it's all about,
Don't scream just Bounce, 'cause we're takin' over now
it's TFK, we rock the party, and keep the party jumpin'
In an old school way
Bounce, show me what it's all about,
Don't talk just Bounce, get up and let it all hang out,
If ya find it hard to breathe, ya better just leave,
we 'bout to make it hotter than the third degree

Breakdown:
Let's brake this mold, can't let this hold us,
(Build up) Let's be soldiers, no longer let them control us,
Boys and girls, together we'll shake the world,
If you believe, then put it to the sky with me
If you agree, there's more to this then what we see,
And what we know, then bounce 'till ya lose control,
And grab a partner, we about to make this hotter,
turn up the heat, when we get this started

The time has come now shake up the dust 'till it settles in the sun

BOUNCE

Bounce! (get up 'n'), Bounce! (wake up 'n'),
Bounce! (stand up 'n'), let your spirit fly

Chorus 2:
Everyone Bounce, show me what it's all about,
Don't scream just Bounce, 'cause we're takin' over now
it's TFK, we rock the party, and keep the party jumpin'
In an old school way
Bounce, show me what it's all about,
Don't talk just Bounce, get up and let it all hang out,
If ya find it hard to breathe, ya better just leave,
we 'bout to make it hotter than the third degree

#43: Boom - P.O.D.

43

Boom
P.O.D.

Genre: Nu Metal



I never knew that a kid like me
Could take his mic around the world
and flash the big S.D.
And rock the masses, from Madrid to Calabassas
Tijuana, Mexico, bootleg demos in Tokyo

They know me though, ‘cause I be puttin’ in work
Commit my life to rebirth, well respected,
‘cause that’s my word
I’m sure you heard, about a new sound
going around
She might have left my hood,
but she was born in my town

We rep. the South, so what you talking about
I’m not running off my mouth, I know this without a doubt
‘Cause if you know these streets, then these streets know you
When it’s time to handle business, then you know what to do
Me and my crew, we stay true, old skool or new
Many were called, but the chosen are few
We rise to the top, what you want? Just in case you forgot
Rush the stage, grab my mic, show me what you got

You didn’t know, thought we was new on the scene
Well, it’s alright! It’s alright!
I know you know, I see you smiling at me
Well, it’s alright! It’s alright!

Chorus:
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, here comes
the boys from the South
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
How you like me now?

Is that all you got?
I’ll take your best shot.

#42: Turn Your Back And Run - Demon Hunter

Turn Your Back And Run
Demon Hunter

Genre: Metalcore



I'm growing partial to detesting a disease in me.
It's head swells into beautiful. Dependency.
With teeth that feed on flesh and everything.
I swear I am not.
A small price to bleed and give you everything that you want.

Dancing with the spirit, giving heart to pump a dirty vein.
Leaving with a scar, a uniform to bruise a perfect stain.
Anything you hate will be the root of everything you breathe.
Breathing in the dirt will leave you hating all that you conceive.

I try to push myself up, I'm breaking from the inside.
I'm slipping through the cracks and i try to push it out of mind.
Switch, you've got to turn your back and run.

To push it out is just a patch to heal a gaping wound.
A brass tack to pin a hair and heal a broken tomb.
I never thought I'd be the one to bring it down to this.
My last thought is through a statement and a shattered fist.

Face down, fearless, light me up, end this.

I try to push myself up, I'm breaking from the inside.
I'm slipping through the cracks and I try to push it out of mind.
Switch, you've got to turn your back and run.

Microns from the flame head.
Beat my hands to proceed nothing.
Staring into souls with blind eyes.
Taking the throne in my tiny hand.

And chase it with the pain.
You won't have life until you run.
You got to give it all away.

I try to push myself up, I'm breaking from the inside.
I'm slipping through the cracks and I try to push it out of mind.
Switch, you've got to turn your back and run.

#41: Greed - DecembeRadio

Greed
Decemberadio

Genre: Rock



Had it all wanted more so you got you some fast cash to keep you rollin', yeah!
Your credit cards slit your throat, now it won't let go [won't let go]
Yeah you've gotta get out before it takes control
it's a big black hole it'll swallow your soul

When greed is all that motivates
You'll hang yourself and seal your fate

And you'll go down swingin' from an old tree
suicide of the worst degree
it'll be too late to get yourself free
'cause you'll be too far down
was it worth the betrayal that made you bleed
to get your silver to feed your greed
oh it's a deadly sin so don't let it in, don't let it in

For what it's worth everything on the Earth's not enough
To keep you going
What you want never need only fuels you're greed, yeah!
Yeah, you gotta get out before it takes control
it's a big black hole that'll swallow your soul

When greed is all that motivates,
You'll hang yourself and seal your fate

And you'll go down swingin from an old tree
suicide of the worst degree
it'll be too late to get yourself free
cause you'll be too far down
was it worth the betrayal that made you bleed
to get your silver to feed your greed
oh it's a deadly sin don't let it in

All of the pennies in your pockets
won't get you through the needles eye
The one thing that you're needing
money just can't buy

And you'll go down swingin' from an old tree
suicide of the worst degree
it'll be too late to get yourself free
cause you'll be too far down
was it worth the betrayal that made you bleed
to get your silver to feed your greed
Oh it's a deadly sin, so don't let it in, don't let it in, yeah, yeah, yeah!
