"Keep the Metal Flowing in Your Veins"

Metal nation; a nation of metal-heads
ready for the end of this place, to be
taking

Metal is flowing like blood through
our veins; like liquid ore we're filled
with rage and, implore for the end
of it all...

This, memorialize we

Indoctrinate our minds from the gate
towards compliance and conformity;
now, their easing-in intolerance for
divergence, that they leer at as a
slur

I used to ponder the lyrics...

"We don't need no Education" thinking...

"Education is a Good thing"

but, now, I know that the institutions for
learning are nothing more than
state-orchestrated centers for
brain-washing and turning out
drones for their agendas of
absolute compliance, to
the ends of...

world-domination

No more personality; no more autonomy...

No more individuality; for this they crave
for and seek

Don't let them rip the metal from your
spines; don't let them transfuse the
metal from your veins and with it
substitute some lesser,
subjugating thing

It's time to rise up and take it back; put
120 Minutes back on MTV... discontinue
all of the cookie-cutting, mindless
bull-shit psychobabble called pop
and hip-hop that they play in a
continuous rotation to dumb
down this generation

Let the creative-juices once again flow;
and, their corporate contracts wipe
your asses with like Brendan
Fraser in Empire City

Write your own lines and verses; scream
whilst you're in your garage rehearsing

No more personality; no more autonomy...

No more individuality; for this, they crave
for and seek

Don't let them rip the metal from your
spines; don't let them transfuse the
metal from your veins and with it
substitute some lesser
subjugating thing
