Sacrifice Lyrics
Jedi Mind Tricks
[Intro]
You've watched so many people die...
You've watched so many people die...
[Antz: movie sample.]
Sacrifice- to some, it is just a word. to others it is a code
{yo, Ikon the fuckin' Hologram}
What matters is the colony.
{take ya'll motherfuckers to war, what what}
He's willing to live for the colony,
to fight for the colony, to die for the colony
{yo, yo, yo}
[Verse 1: Ikon]
Witness the art of combat
the center is where the bombs at
It's illegal for the feeble to see beyond that
Upon that, cyanide gases, sentinel dent through ya ventricle with nine axes
Time lapses, we on with, brutal and terrible conflict bomb shit
You gone quick- on a mission to meet your savior
A pitchfork through your bitch-heart [in] Castlevania.
Slayin ya'- we blaze all men
And storm through Allah battlefield with suede Timbs
The ra-ven {raven screech} who made men eyeless
Blinds evil, like a needle through the eye of Osirus
???My vibrance will span in the grill???
With the violence of Hamburger Hill, to kill
What, what
{unknown sample}
to the depths I dive- I dive
{scratching of the word "Sacrifice" as said by Big Pun in "You Ain't A
Killer")
{Verse 2: Jus Allah aka Megatraum}
The grains of my fingerprints rub against mics like match flints
Burn slow like Dutchmaster hits
Enter trenches of arms, the Paragon spawn
Your body's carried and dropped like surrogate moms
??Sarialities promote?? to battle me
??Find enemy beats, awaken my forsakens off the balcony??
A jaded man, never follows the Lord's plan
Rises for sacrifice like Isaac to Abraham
Expect wideness from Heaven's excels
Coming outta my shells l
