Human Animal

The monster of hate overcomes rational thought

Fast fuse burning the lessons I've been taught

It's just too late to remember who I am

The things that I believe in and the way that I stand

About peace, harmony, respect for fellow man

All that shit just got thrown against the fan

In my violent rage, they say that I am a criminal

There ain't no labels within the human animal

In this world of bigotry and pain

The violence spreads and terror reigns

The opinions in our minds replace our souls

As the human animal takes control

The path of self-destruction has brought me to this point

As modern day society cracks arthritic joints

No mercy is shown, it's hitting all my weak spots

I never had a gun, but now I wanna hear gun shots

I sleep not for fear, I get no rest

Twisted in a sense, 'cause my button has been pressed

How many ways have you shown me that you hate me

And then you wonder why what have you done to me lately

I am an animal

The human animal

A human animal

Tension building, I'm being pushed too far

I need a release, take the lid of this jar

My voice seems useless in this situation

Time to take action, release frustration

Everyone has limits, only so much you can take

Antagonizing pressure is the icing on the cake

Physical abuse, induced or subliminal

Open the door, unleash the human animal

Flashes of red my vision of distortion

Like a virus, it spreads, giving each his portion

Contagious psychopath, the vibe is in synch

Movin' like a pack, we're back to basic instincts

Wild at heart, now we show our true colors

In the path of desperation, we forget about our brothers

Who would die for us, now, we die for no man

Deranged from the instance, violence came too hard

Instinctual behavior in the given situation

Leaves us with no call for rationalization
