Welcome to my world
Headfirst to the Earth
With my sights on the goddamned kill switch
I've become a fuse
Charged with attitude
Fixed and dialated by my anger
I have become a direct
I have become a current
I have become a direct
I have become insurgent
I will be the power surge
Shock to the system
Electrified, amplified
Shock to the system
Alternate my wires
Heat my core desire
I will not stand for condemnation
I've become the volts
To lead the revolt
Fuck with me ensues certain danger
I have become a direct
I have become a current
I have become a direct
I have become insurgent
I will be the power surge
Shock to the system
Electrified, amplified
Shock to the system
I am the power surge
I am the insurgent
Electrified, amplified
Electrified, amplified
Shock!
*EDGECRUSHER* Conceived in a hell beyond your depth of perception Chaotic case of conquering domination Psychopath snaps fired chains of imprisonment A bludgeoning force that's undermining the government Inflict strain upon the structure Collapsing below my pressure Inflict strain upon the structure Collapsing below my pressure Break of the Edgecrusher... The purist, non-conformist, jaded subhuman terrorist From flesh to steel and blood to blade I fight to exist A rival of justice, extreme rush of hatred Survival in a twisted world where nothing is sacred Inflict strain upon the structure Collapsing below my pressure Inflict strain upon the structure Collapsing below my pressure Break of the Edgecrusher...

*SECURITRON (POLICE STATE 2000)* Invade and encompass to judge and dissect Witness and persecute to serve and protect To serve, and protect to serve To serve, and protect to serve Watchful and aware, constrain every movement Admit the consequences, freedom's an illusion Where is security governed through scrutiny?

*RESURRECTION* Consumed with memories that preceded today Given a chance to bereave life that's slipping away Suffered through tragedy of my slow decay Deceptive tendencies dragged my soul away All that I know there was no God for me Force that shatters all, absence of mortality Revive all my fears Revive wasted tears Revive void within Revive once again... Forsaken by destiny, forsaken by my own mind I must remove my skin to see belief in your eyes All that I know there was no God for me Force that shatters all, absence of humanity Revive all my fears Revive wasted tears Revive void within Revive once again... Reach for the sky Touch the sky Revive a hope For mankind
