What, what, what you gonna do?
Like leeches suckin on your money for blood
To have power, buy all you people's love
Dont give a damn how you get it, as long as you get it
Never split it, I aint with it, whatever way you did it
Step off! Cause I aint got no time for your kind
Leave me the fuck alone, Im headin in a new state of mind
And Im sick of playin all your games
You stainin my brain and things will never be the same
Primal
You cant hide long with all your lies
And when the truth comes out to stand the test of time
And you can wear your mask and you can hide your face
You can destroy your past and you can leave no trace
So you can change, trying to rearrange fuck stayin the same
Cause your brain's what I blame for me going insane
Now let it out and try to survive and keep it real
Then reveal what you feel with you primal side
Chorus:
Dont make me hate you for your lies
Dont make me hate you I can't relate to
Guess I mistaked you, now Im gonna hate you
I came to grips and realized
I realized, now I realized, I realized I can see it in your eyes
I can't control my primal side
I cant control it, I cant control it, I cant control it, No I cant control it
Illusions, tattoos, they wont go away
A constant earthquake or continuous play
It's all in my mind, I feel so corrupted
Now it's time to unwind so I say fuck it
For ADD they're pumpin Ritalin in me
To help me fit in their society
But I wont change, I wont bend, I wont break
So take that shit and get the fuck outta my face
NOW!
Dont make me hate you for your lies
Dont make me hate you I can't relate to
Guess I mistaked you, now Im gonna hate you
I came to grips and realized
I realized, now I realized, I realized I can see it in your eyes
I can't control my primal side
I cant control it, I cant control it, I cant control it, No I cant control it
You can wear you mask, you can hide your face
You can destroy your past, you can leave no trace
Dont make me hate you for your lies
Dont make me hate you I can't relate to
Guess I mistaked you, now Im gonna hate you
I came to grips and realized
I realized, now I realized, I realized I can see it in your eyes
I can't control my primal side
I cant control it, I cant control it, I cant control it, No I cant control it
