Analysis of f*ck 'Em in the Face



f*ck 'Em in the Face

This may be a war
f*ck it, let 'em win
Like I said before
Still not slavin' in
Drugs as medication
Religious mindfuck
Secretive glances
More bang for your buck
Old words, new meaning
Sign language codes
I'm no cunning linguist
Just want to explode
Somehow lost my rhythm
But maybe that's my song
f*ck the melody
