Machine Head

Block

From Burn My Eyes1994

Written by Adam Duce, Chris Kontos, Logan Mader

Lyrics

Block

[Intro] Block! Block! Block! [Verse 1] Hate breeds hate, my eyes they have seen The decimation of all that is pure, pure A system that feeds their machine with The blood, sweat and money of the poor, poor Corruption gets rich, honesty just exists 'Cause nobody cares anymore, anymore Fuck it all! Fuck it all! [Refrain] Block! Block! Block! [Verse 2] White attack black, black attack back The fucking media keeps us all blind, blind Children on crack, junkies on smack You wanna close your eyes to hide, hide Pollution so dense, sickening existence New world order, new world decline, decline Fuck it all! Fuck it all! [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] The more intense the sense of ignorance The more intense then is the pain The more intense the sense of ignorance The more intense then is the pain The more intense the sense of ignorance The more intense then is the pain! [Refrain] Block! Block! Block! [Verse 3] Hate breeds hate, my eyes they have seen The decimation of all that is pure, pure A system that feeds their machine with The blood, sweat and money of the poor, poor Believe in something if it stops your suffering 'Cause all we have is nothing, nothing Fuck it all! Fuck it all! [Outro] The more intense the sense of ignorance The more intense is the pain The more intense the sense of ignorance The more intense is the pain Fuck it all! Fuck it all! Fuck it all! Fuck it all!
