[Intro: Mike Shinoda, Emcee 007]
(Always prevail, the human third rail)
Yo, yo, I brought Xero
(Exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
Junkyard Scientific, Styles, haha
(Always prevail, the human third rail)
Yo, I thought you knew, I thought, ha, uh
(Exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
I tell ya, ha, uh
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda, Mark Wakefield, both]
It's like a royal flush, rush when I bust verbally plus
Crush Earth's crust and enemy emcees to dust
With one touch
Stonehenge rhyme riddle of mystery
With Earth rattle reckoning
Re-writing your history with blistery flesh
Meshed with a mess of a civil unrest
On wax, test-pressed, scratched with finesse
And next, blessed with extraterrestrial techs
And programmed for the organs above your necks
Undressing hip hop, and making it over again
This is the end
Ill men you'll never defend
From the deep end, we watch trends, and then we see rock
And devise plans, to strand them in the penalty box
I mentally stop brains in virtual train wrecks
Dissect a picture to the words stirred up by the text
What's next? Heat seeking treats meet your sect
When you spit a thousand words, and haven't painted a stroke yet
[Chorus 1: Mike Shinoda, Mark Wakefield]
Believe this, (Believe this) I'm only in it for the fiends (For the fiends)
And mean every single sentence that I scream (It's just the sound)
It's just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
That's got us all dancing in the mist (In the mist)
Believe this, (Believe this) I'm only in it for the fiends (For the fiends)
And mean every single sentence that I scream (It's just the sound)
It's just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
That's got us all dancing in the mist, mist
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda, Mark Wakefield, both]
With your incomprehensible, bullet hole ventilated metal
Stainless steel, invincible
Diamond, and platinum-plated
Psychologically fabricated facade
God-sent, and hell-bent
On mentally not making any sense to me
Eventually, you're tempting me to put you on the chopping block
As a sacrifice to hip hop when I knock you off
Razorbladed (Uh) pop and lock with axes
Put your head in a basket as an example for those who pass it
Medievally approaching these festivities
Jump around (Uh) freakily when you see me
Like BDP on PCP
Frequently
Me and Mark transform like DMC
To soundwaves of song set in every frequency
[Interlude: Mike Shinoda & Mark Wakefield, Emcee 007, Mark Wakefield]
(Always prevail, the human third rail)
Endlessly worthless, cryin' out your curses
(Exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
Playin' all these games, and turnin' this into a circus
(Always prevail, the human third rail)
Witless, and worthless, and cryin' out your curses
(Exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
Playin' all these games…
(Yo)
[Chorus 2: Mike Shinoda, Mark Wakefield, both]
Believe this, (Believe this) I'm only in it for the fiends (For the fiends)
And mean every single sentence that I scream (It's just the sound)
It's just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
That's got us all dancing in the mist (In the mist)
Believe this, (Believe this) I'm only in it for the fiends (For the fiends)
And mean every single sentence that I scream (It's just the sound)
It's just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
That's got us all dancing in the mist
[Outro: Emcee 007]
(Always prevail, the human third rail, I exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
One two, one, one, yeah, one two
(Always prevail, the human third rail, I exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
Ha, ha, ha, Cash Double-Oh
Xero, 818, you know? That's how we do
(Always prevail, the human third rail, I exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
Xero, 818, you know? That's how we do
(Always prevail, the human third rail, I exhale the smoke from Molotov cocktails)
Yeah, check it out, y'all, check it out, Cash Double-Oh
Tell your grandparents, tell your brother and sister, tell everybody, ha (818, yo, Artofficial)
One two, ha, ha, one two, ha, one two (Yeah, just like that, yeah, just like that, yeah, just like that)
(Yeah, just like this)
Yo, can you hear me?
Haha, it's like that
I ain't takin' it back, haha
