Otep Lyrics

"Run For Cover" lyrics


you have 7 more seconds to
decipher your life
before my tongue becomes a
blade & your brain gets sliced
i warned you before, i'm
addicted to war
i was praying for armageddon
on the day i was born

incite & ignite
cried my muse
elevating IQ's as i enter
the room

it's elemental
defying gravity with these
lyrical miracles & street
philosophies

it's the chosen child
destroying idols like i'm Gideon

manipulating matter
transfer data like a pentium

processor, throw these
rocks atcha
i be the queen weaving dreams
with supreme lectures

infect ya, lyrically dissect ya
i got control of your soul
so no gods can protect ya

"you betcha!"
we can set ya free best
believe that this
tribe of mystery
was born and bred to conceive

brilliant galaxies of
mind expanding poetry
enemies know it's me, armed
with mental weaponry

ain't no testin me, the tribe
comes prepared to live
you're just a drone to the
hive, ain't no way you'll survive

ravage vanquish mangle destroy

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

ripped at the seams
i destroy galaxies

word becomes flesh
i bring nations to its knees

so feel the blast as this broadcasts
out any doubt that real rhymes last

it's the voice of the apocalypse
the god of war

with Osiris' esophagus
an omnivore

take you higher than the
Krsna consciousness
from gotham to metropolis
the lesser gods eradicate the obvious

we fight for all of us so
get off the ground
weapon systems armed
it's about to go down

it's for the crown

ravage vanquish mangle destroy

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

craven!

there will be blood
on my fists
on your face
on the ground around us

this is pain
have a taste
i'm addicted to the rush

of bruises & bloodstains
dark god in my veins

i will hate it all away
no, nothing will remain

the enemy is me!
you weak, ineffectual plebe!

even jesus worships me
i bow down to none

your little light is like a candle
trying to outshine the sun

RUN FOR COVER
RUN FOR COVER

NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE

inside my mind
where heaven & hell collide
you won't survive
suck!
& swallow your pride
suck!
& swallow pride

no one gets out alive

the enemy is me
THE ENEMY IS ME
