Hey, Hi, we're racin' with time
To get some kicks before we die
Hey, Ho, and if you don't know
We will stand together on the other side
Hey, man, can I call you my friend
Here in the beginning of the end
This fight has already begun
And now it's time to take it to Euphoria
Hey, friend, I can feel your pain,
Even heroes cry in the rain
Stand up so we can hear what you say
Said genocide yeah
Oh genocide
Hey, Lord, tears are burnin' my face
I'm the one that's tryin to fool fate
Oh, God, I think I'm in shock
Whatever it takes to get us through this genocide
You like to hear it? Well, here it goes
Oh, Lord, would you breath us in?
Wash your blood over our skin
Hold tight cause it's gonna go black
Never let go and get us through this genocide
Hey, man, I know you're my friend
Here in the beginning of the end
Hey, friend, we're all that we got
Take my hand and jump into the genocide
