Battle Ready - Otep

Simple souls overload as i explode data banks

Cuz the earth & space gave birth to this paleface

Supreme -- linguistic -- mental machine

My brain cells swell — the intellects extreme

Fire fills my veins as i proclaim my resistance

To the mind-swapping parasites that feed off my existence

As i -- skin the burn to relearn the royal plan

Out beyond the edges in the depths of spirit land

Its authentic, apocalyptic destroyer

Damaging challengers -- resurrection, disorder

A monument of crisis — i strikes this — your dead

Line my nest with your soul -- cleansed in bloodshed

BATTLE READY!

Poets gonna take control

BATTLE READY

Souls violate parole

BATTLE READY

Violently invade your home

-- breaking the bones

OF THOSE WHO POSE

Commanding the mic -- striking up a verb-fest

Mass destruction is my function — time to put it to the test

In combat --- attacking since way back

In the days i drew praise for the way that i slayed facts

Formulating flows in revolutionary science

Its the catastrophic prophet from the anarchist alliance

Freaking techniques -- this creature of speech

We feel the fury of devastation cuz we tasted defeat

I’m alone on my throne in this universe of fear

Royalty divides my soul -- in this role i’m revered

As the pinnacle -- lyrical master -- queen of disaster

I ruin brain fluid -- the UNKNOWN IS WHAT I’M AFTER

BATTLE READY!

BATTLE READY

-- breaking the bones

OF THOSE WHO POSE

BATTLE READY!

Poets gonna take control

BATTLE READY

Souls violate parole

BATTLE READY

Violently invade your home

-- breaking the bones

OF THOSE WHO POSE

Shaking up the world -- just like the 2nd coming of christ

-- when i write -- thrice divine with this goddess sight

Words will flow -- wounds will grow

Ewe know -- bones will be exposed from the force that i unload

Its THE SOUL EATER!

-- mic bleeder with the voice of chaos

I got the nectar of the gods flowing from my mental pod

Gather the flock -- alarm your block

Tell them the shepherds have come & got the keys to unlock

A holy war -- thru your veins it courses

More lyrical artillery than the armed forces

Supernatural -- styles be volatile

Its the mind manipulator -- the WAR CHILD

BATTLE READY!

Poets gonna take control

BATTLE READY

Souls violate parole

BATTLE READY

Violently invade your home

-- breaking the bones

OF THOSE WHO POSE

COME!

SHADOW SOLDIERS!

We came to defy — living life as a lie

We embryonic satellites need our freedom to fly

TO WATCH YOU DIE!

-- agonizing cries are heard in stereo

I’m visualizing battlefield scenarios

In the line of fire -- watching empires fall

Into attack position -- ELIMINATE ALL!!!

MY SPECIES!!!

BATTLE READY!

BATTLE READY

BATTLE READY

-- breaking the bones

OF THOSE WHO POSE

BATTLE READY!

Poets gonna take control

BATTLE READY

Souls violate parole

BATTLE READY

Violently invade your home

-- breaking the bones

OF THOSE WHO POSE

MY SPECIES!

MY SPECIES!

NO SURRENDER!

NO SURRENDER!
