Swollen Members Monsters In The Closet Lyrics
1.Intro


2.Steppin' Through

Ya'll can do what ya'll want to do just know
that we're doin' it the way you want to do,
rockin' you just watch how your shit get blown back,
I know you wish that you could do it too.
People think that they can't do it like Swollen,
the Members do it like you never knew.
Gettin' it by the grip thats the way we roll it,
You better move it when we're steppin' through.

I'm the first and conversed and person street stalker.
Off my rocker, a red bull and vodka.
Provactively, walkin' like you talkin' to me,
branded outlandish, triple deck and stress sandwich.
It's an ambush, turn no pad to canvas,
ain't it an art words paintin' worth paintin' my heart.
New York to LA, Younge Street to Robson,
we get the job done and rob with tribeslum.

Live and effect, graze the edge of the metal, grace day,
game face, first place the rebel.
In the cage with the lions, engage with the giants, starts
September,
Red October preps the Cobra.
I coil the sun, snake oil I drum, stick grease up my grill ya'll
I'm formula one.
Crack a hole in your helmet, your bucket, your pail,
woke a Mad Child chemo prevails.

Ya'll can do what ya'll want to do just know
that we're doin' it the way you want to do,
rockin' you just watch how your shit get blown back,
I know you wish tht you could do it too.
People think that they can't do it like Swollen,
the Members do it like you never knew.
Gettin' it by the grip thats the way we roll it,
You better move it when we're steppin' through.
You feel me as if I wasn't part of you (if I wasn't part of
you),
if you really doin' what you wanna do (doin' what you wanna do),
if you see how Moka only get it done (get it done),
Swollen get it lock never sweat it none.
Jump in the air, hands in the air, put 'em up,
girls shake it down, girls shake it down, wind it up.
Come through your town, come through your town, tear it up,
once ya'll keep down, ya'll stayin' down, raise the love.

Don't be shocked we made it,
Mad Child rocks the greatest, when I'm intoxicated,
got shit locked we waited.
Invaded and stayed at the fact with tactics activated,
can't hate it you played that track attacks infatuated.
Fatal attraction won't stop 'till I'm platinum,
wam bam gonna flatten 'em, gonna baseball batt'n 'em.
Quick draw McGraw, wrap assault rifle,
go blind when you look into the mind of a psycho.

We're the main attraction boy, you're just a side show,
evolve and try to glow in the class don't try to hide bro.
We spin the vinyl from the beat ya'll need a sonar,
the curb to the club heavy hittin' like a crowbar.
No scars, no bruises, no cuts or bumps,
those are signs of effects how did you come up chump?
Through the back door, this is a brand new route,
we'll blow the speaker throw the mike stand and grab the dance
floor.

Ya'll can do what ya'll want to do just know that we're doin' it
the way you want to do,
rockin' you just watch how your shit get blown back,
I know you wish tht you could do it too.
People think that they can't do it like Swollen,
the Members do it like you never knew.
Gettin' it by the grip thats the way we roll it,


3.Breath

praying mantis,

4.Fuel Injected(Remix)


5.Battle Axe Exclusive

Star struck, awkward glances, rock phenomenally
Armed with honesty, Doven wove in tapestry
Of obscenity, eliminate the enemy
Watch closely, I'm what you're pretending to be
We took the turn inpenetrable, and fine tuned it
Cleared the path, laughed and walked past the wounded
You shouldn't have assumed we'd take time to breath
Fuck tricks, I've got alot more weapons up my sleeve
I'll tell you when I'm finished, I'm armed to armageddon
Hard headed with the steel ball pulse heart imbedded
It's hard to believe this is controlled by a brain
They're retired because I'm wired for sound with iron lanes
If at first we suceed try again
I'm turning verses into fire by applying pain
Manslaughter in the first, Incidence of red
Confidence is king, innocence is dead

Over the course, something like life-endorsed
I've entered the mother ship, terminated the Denver airport
Too many guns in the air, you're about to be prepared for
You've heard us speak, attention should be second nature
Or maybe you enjoy being severly severed
By sacred sabres uppin for plegance to break the paranoid
You're about the dreamscape, we fought with backlash
Ya'll gonna see my phoenix rise out my black ass
Tad's cash, a loss of breath
The only three certain things in this life and death
Corrosive breath, fermented tissue acid test
You trying to tell me entertaining is a time exspense
Any event of contact, to clack
Draw my herd man, verb back and see what goes black
Elevated elements, and the knowing guards
We know the future without the use of the tarot card


6.Heavy Thinkers

'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'

It's canastrophic, if you lose your optic in this market
With heavy bags of garbage floating in the tar-pit
It's strange, like chemical drips down Aspirin lane
Tobacco and Shane, me and Mary-Jane
We all got a clutch that can shift us to want
It's the amount that you grab when you get to the pot
Cuz this only recognizes time that ticks
I enter the building to blow out the bricks
My statements, got to get it fixed like a patient
I love it, it pushes my brain to non-complacments
Numbing out the pain, pulling ribs out of stomachs
All because of the feared geared by outer limits

'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'

'Heavy Thinkers- Got The World Spinning Hectic'
'Heavy Thinkers'

We some thought provokers for weed smokers that need focus
No hocus-pocus, just some lead vocals
Wrap round your head and choke cold local yocals
Till your face turn purple, can't break the sacred circle
I'm a mathmatician with a master vision
You have to listen, focus on business now who's ass ya kissing
Lit the flame, got mass support
I'ma pass the torch, if you're asking for it, if you got passion
for it
This is an example of substance abuse
Loving abuse, consuming a few in a hotel room with a view
And I love giving the answers to the same fucking questions
Love signing burnt CD's at these autograph sessions
Love getting drunk for my shows and stage diving
And putting my life in the hands of the tourbus driver
Love taking planes and vicious bitches with no names
I love to get home to pack and just pack up and do it again
You ready J?

9.Bring It Home

Swollen, always, brings it home
(Swollen always brings it home)
We do it, up where, we belong
And Moka Only, always, brings it home
(Moka always brings it home)
Let's do it, up and, keep it on

We built a foundation, brick by brick
Eye for an eye, keep your eyes on this
The shadows move in the strangest forms,
Our music in your ear is like a dangerous storm
The way we perform, it's a whole new arena
We raise the stakes while you follow the leader
This song's a heater, long live the speaker
S&M the name explains the main feature

I'm an abnormal creature with pummelin' action
Feature presentation plus the comin' attraction
Asians, Iranians, all same opinion
Indians, blacks and whites and East Indians
Latins, girls draped in lace and satin
North Van to Venice, T-Dot to Manhattan
All get the picture, it's not quite invitin'
Mad Child's excitin', strike of white lightnin'


Where would we be in the world,
If we never did our thing?
Please believe me it's my world,
Everybody hear me sing now,
If you've never heard of us I'm sorry you ain't hip
Here's another track because we always come equipped
Moka love the ladies and the ladies lovin' Mok'
Ain't no need to argue cause we're just so fuckin' dope
Naked with the Grain Of Salt or maybe with your drink
Thankin' Swollen Members cause they keep the party crank
Like dang dicky dicky dang dicky dang dang
Cause we bring it home, put it on, make it this way

I stay low to the ground so I can keep my balance,
The element of surprise, the advantage of silence
And all you root beer motherfuckers floatin' around,
I pop your top you must be watered down
No fears of the glowin' lights of show biz
Young kids, I'll show you whose show it is
Swollen Members hits hard like Heartbreak Ridge
I put my heart into this, no alternative

That's affirmative, we burn with passion, smashin'
Flashin' on kids too concerned with fashion
Handlin' my business, we last longest
My whole congress, strong as King Kong is
Sledgehammer grammar, thunderbolt jolt
Mad Child what you got under your coat?
Adrenaline pump and I'm swingin' an axe
Swollen Members bring it home while Moka sing on the tracks


And Rob The Viking, always, brings it home
We do it, up where, we belong
And Moka Only, always, brings it home
(Moka always brings it home)
Let's do it, up and, keep it on.


10.Zenith


11.Members Only

Experiment with mind control, crowd convulses
We don't act on false impulses
Discipline with fierce conflicts of interest
Different opinions, but damned if we relinquish
Intentional exuberance, tolerate the turbulance
We attract the mentally disturbed and suburban kids
Peculiar forces, no time to take a breather
Talking cockyness, rocking with these awkward overachievers
Vicious sense of humour turn you into a believer
Either dig it or you don't, we won't settle for less
You should hate us with a passion or love us to death
The feeling of enchantment, this blissful rapture
Hits home for some, for others it's hard to capture
Adapt to interference with a sinister appearance
Get devoured by a powerhouse of perceverance

'Swollen'
Members only, for the ceremony
You know I know you know me, the ill testimony
'Swollen'

The main concept to mochary is simple in its motives
You move when it moves, you plan out its orbits
The consequence to that, its heavy in its taxness
It spins your body around with units made for blasting
The thrashing of nationties on action filled streets
The more I stress it the less I feel complete
The heels of my feet are burnt up from walking
Up and down the pavement yelling slave auction
I don't praise those options, I'm not that innocent
I raise my opinions through the nemesis dominion
They ration the supplies through the big brother of this brave
new world
Catching rye with the Lord of the Flies
The presentation of demise printed in thirty dialects
I'm early to rise, the connections of the monument

'Swollen'
Members only, for the ceremony
You know I know you know me, the ill testimony
'Swollen'
Members only, for the ceremony
You know I know you know me, the ill testimony


12.Act On It

Before I fade to black in the shaded shack,
In a box with handles and my family in back,
I will have achieved my life in leaves, of paper, that kept me
safer than hangin with theives.
I've been in the big house, but not for long,
But long enough to know it's hard to make songs,
I played my cards and kept movin along,
Hooked up with Madchild and righted my wrongs,
You don't continue with circles, we generate light,
So three hundred and sixty five days I study and write,
I bloody the mic and will continue to learn,
From the best in the world until the night I burn.
I fought for my turn, you can check my gloves,
We both have inkpads covered with blood and scabs,
I love what I have but I will progress,
And I do every day when I take my first step,
It's all about Breath, when it's done I'm gone,
And death is a pawn in a game on a board of which I'm on.
I've had a sword in my palm from the very first tracks,
That were cut, mastered, and released under battleaxe.
It's nice to know that I've been a part of something reversal,
Camouflage to Consumption.

Yo it's funny how time flies,
Life has lows and highs,
And that's no surprise.
Come along for the ride,
Can you handle the drive?
Act on it, 'cause life can flash before your eyes.
Time flies, lows and highs, and that's no surprise,
Come along for the ride, can you handle the drive?
Act on it, 'cause life can flash before your eyes.

Before I'm laid to rest, I'ma do my best,
'Cause the biggest death threat is too many regrets.
And I ain't goin out like I wonder what woulda happened,
If I'd never given up,
Kept on rappin.
Been so many years of blood, sweat and tears,
Fears to overcome, so I'ma give it my all,
And when it's last call,
At least there'll be no questioning.
If I fall, I'll know it just wasn't my destiny.
Maybe it's not meant to be, but eventually,
I gaurantee I'll satisfy myself mentally.
I'm sick and tired of the position acquired,
I appreciate it, but I've seen visions in fire.
A premonition, spiritually awaken,
With doses and moments of magic to take in.
We'll keep it movin' and go at it whole-hearted,
Madchild works the hardest to finish what he started.

Yo it's funny how time flies,
Life has lows and highs,
And that's no surprise.
Come along for the ride,
Can you handle the drive?
Act on it, 'cause life can flash before your eyes.
Time flies, lows and highs, and that's no surprise,
Come along for the ride, can you handle the drive?
Act on it, 'cause life can flash before your eyes.

(There's no time to waste)
We move with grace,
(One life to embrace)
Though it feels like a race,
The strange and great,
(Rearrange your taste)
To almost something)
From noone listening,
(To everybody jumpin)
fallin off, this is just and introduction)

Yo it's funny how time flies,
Life has lows and highs,
And that's no surprise.
Come along for the ride,
Can you handle the drive?
Act on it, 'cause life can flash before your eyes.
Time flies, lows and highs, and that's no surprise,
Come along for the ride, can you handle the drive?
Act on it, 'cause life can flash before your eyes.


13.Long Way Down

And it's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's such a long way down
to the place where we started from

Yo, i'm still trying to figure out this Venus and mars thing
But everytime I see you all I hear is a harp string
We chilled last night
I had to record this
Listen to portishead
Makin love in the forest
Where not stuck in this orbit
Its gonna work out for us
So gorgeous like the voice of the woman gracing the chorus
A newborn in its pure form
Gentle and precious
We connect on more than just mental
Don't let this shit stress us
I'm okay if you're okay
I know it sounds cliche
But we built this whole relationship from sand and clay
Now we're so strong
We've got a concrete bond
And it completes so solid
I had to write this song

And it's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's such a long way down
to the place where we started

We met when we was young
Two hearts that beat as one
I knew it from the start
Not till death do us part
Nothing compares to you (keep blazin)
I'm a fine young cannibal
And you drive me crazy
I know your looks attracts guys
But that don't faze me
Soul mate, make me feel like they got nothing on me
Just to, taste your lips
Plus your voice is calming
I know its hard babe cause i'm always on tour
But my love is fucking pure
And that's for sure
Been around the world
Feel like I've covered whole earth's surface
Stressed out to the point of askin if it's worth it
Sometimes it trips me out kid
Cause you're so perfect
I gotta keep working, striving and building
So we can get a house, have kids and grand children
Till then I'll make sure you don't regret
That you gave me another chance girl I won't forget!

It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
Listen to me man, make sure you love what you do
Cause it's gonna take a time for anyone to get to the ultimate
goal
And As long as you love what your doing
Doesn't matter how long it takes
And when it finally does happen
Try to remember how hard you worked to get there
And appreciate that's shit
Keep climbing
BATTLEAXE

I'm shark where you swim
Sharp as a dart in your skin
We've been given a title that's not hard to defend
Not just my partners my friends
See this from start till the end
With words that alter the wind
Cause we assault with a pen
And hit with the song
No problems here we getting along
Take turns from learnin from our mistakes
Admit when we wrong
And everybody knows how to fight
To shows that are tight
Appropriate strikes
Nobody's sober tonight

Take a walk on the wild side
Give me beats and I'll never die
Ill hold your mind like a hypnotist
Swing the watch into overdrive
There's no rabbit or wand
My habits are rippin a song
The magic comes from the act of people waving their arms
I'm as sane as I was
Given and receiving the love
Livin and breathing this stuff
Battleaxe warriors - mad child prevail
This is music for ya'll bars notes and scales

And it's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's such a long way down
to the place where we started


14.Temptation

Yo, I'm talking about
Temptation things that run through your head
Like I wonder what my friend's girlfriends like in bed
Yo, I bet sometimes she thinks of me instead
Greed, That has to do with more than you need
Sin, That's usually where temptation leads
Turning into an addiction in an instant, take heed
Feeding off your ego, cash confusion and sex
That's why, like, every eight months
You end up back with your ex
For a couple days, and then remember
Why it wasn't meant to be
Go your separate ways and think
I wonder what got into me
You're done, but then another
Eight months comes around eventually
Vicious circle, I've done some things
That aren't worth mentioning
Temptation, made me do some things I regret
Easy to fall into, but hard to forget
Use to put the blame on others
But that's a bunch of nonsense
Now I try to focus and
Just listen to my conscience

Yo, I'm talking about
Temptation and its relation to the human nation
The obvious, money, drugs, sexual frustration
How else can you explain public funding drain
The escalating murder rate and the climb to fame
It makes men touch parts that are not to be
It makes women clutch parts that are a part of me
So all that surface level services a day-to-day
An ongoing basis in desire and display
The first sensation recognized by script
We can't detach ourselves from it once we get into it
And why would we it feels better with the shadows closer
Comfortable feeling of comparing yours to overdose
Sometimes innocent and other times consequential
9 out of the ten times dun it's purely confidential
Harder to handle when your crews talking in your ear
Until you learn to abstain it draws near
Temptation


15.The Capitol


16.Crunch


17.Northern Lights


18.Rockapella

As ten thousand maniacs emerge form an oasis that's everclear
My soundgarden was invented to blind melons and smash pumpkins
How could a whole nation of crash test dummies hope to release
the grapes
of wrath
On the day of Sabbath knowing it'll be black
Especially when they might be giants and they take to the air
with stone
temple pilots
I'm in a parachute club with the motley crew
My b-52, fires nine inch nails
Radiohead, I cause phonetic quiet riots
My tragically hip fight with the spirit of the west
Society's no fucking use to where white zombies have nofx
Now cowboys are turning into junkies
Hanging themselves with lasso's, singing blues about rodeo's
that once
stood true
Have no time to fight with those fools
Alice's in chains and cold hearted iron maidens claim the have
the ministry
of sound for U2
While everyone's raging against the machines
Their watching us on satellites form Georgia
But there's more in my set than Atlantis and it won't crash into
Vegas
cause my man smith has the arrow
The moral to this peril is Hades have no fury and mc's scorn
And I would continue this verse but nothing rhymes with orange!!


19.Freak Fantastic


Rock for the masses
Rock for the masses
Plastic explosives, ferocious
Flashbacks and overdoses
Rock for the masses
Rock for the masses


Yo, fire and anger, barbarians bang
We're furious things, we take this as a serious thing
You curious man? Then follow along
I'm outta control, the music seems
At times I act intolerable
Don't try to swallow it whole, take it piece by piece
I rip you limb by limb
Cuz I'm a beast that feasts on the weak minded
You'll find that I'm a basket case
One step ahead because my heart pumps at a faster pace
Assasins, rapidly whippin' up a masterpiece
Iron jaws, I'm causin' a catastrophe
Has to be disasterous for us to care
I'm openin' the door for the mentally prepared
Come on in an' try this on for size
We don't act surprised, we don't sympathize
We just maintain the stature as we ransack the weak
Drastic changes from a fantastic freak


Freak fantastic
Rock for the masses
Rock for the masses
Plastic explosives, ferocious
Flashbacks and overdoses
Rock for the masses
Rock for the masses


Down to the wire, we take it down to the fibre
A pilot, a fighter, or anything in my range of fire
Is considered over, I dip a victim deeper than bossanova
When in the shoulder, makes it hard to steer, I want in again
We hunt more than deer my friend, the fearless defend
The only real place we know, the balance of 'yes' and 'no'
Is a festival of freaks that pledge to pull the weak from the
edge of sweet success
Seek and destroy is a test, I enjoy when they pour from the
hornet's nest
The headquarters for the out of order
I can drop you out front, or I can save you the quarter
Any way you look at it you're down for the count
Drowned by the Count, for the last red ounce


Rock for the masses, Prev rock glasses
Used to drop acid, Coke not a classic
Peace to Dilated, Arsonists and Jurassic
I'm a fuckin' freak, so I'mma freak fantastic
Can't get past it, Mad Child is spastic
Bite worse than bark, I'm a caine corso mastiff
Shit get drastic, fuck gettin' your ass kicked
Kids get blasted, frozen closed caskets

Mad Child
Prevail

Who needs witnesses when my tag's all over the body bag
I took prodigy protraction, never the flow with action
Shot words like George Jackson, spit rings like Danny Saturn
Uncanny pattern is irregular, king's suffocation
Cannibal crush and rush a competitor through the radiator
Generation accelerator, critical movement
My mic is an armored tank, you can draw your own conclusion
One spike per person, swing when you wish
Of course you'll miss and thrust it through your own asophogus
I'll dump a building on it's windows, carry the elevator
Compare us to someone else, I'll bury the escavator
You'll need a brigade of spades, a deck full of jacks
Not to turn the perephiful terminal Diamondbacks
My mind's with pompay as my mouth is with the bomb bayers
Watch out, my powerhouse, watch these systems generate

Don't tamper with this template, it's definately different
Twists and turns, burning a permanent imprint
Scarred for life, I'm rifling through this verse
The last one to disperse, the first to cast a curse
Take full form, we swarm, abnormally hot
Undergrounding surround sound, that's how we rock
Fully loaded and cocked, devoted to exploding
It's been told I showed you how to break the mold and fold the
knot
Alot of tension within, afraid to unlatch it
I might get carried away and bury the hatchet
A basket case, get carried away in the casket
Man, are you a bastard
No, I'm very inventive
Demented I can sense the undead just past the entrance
I'm sick with every sentence but it's not that simple
I'm simply complicated, we shine experimental
Energy derived from the center of this temple

Excel as I'm prepelling and my element yelling
Full of adrenalin and I tell them I'm a felon and a gentleman
I've been along the wrong road, old habits die hard
Now I chose a righter path but I'm left mentally scarred
Prevail in sleet and hail, who beats them down like nails
Heals the pale, Scorpions wail, drink fire water ale
Inhale the meal of steel rails
Then I swing my back tail and dent your detail
While I'm cracking with a emmaculate tactics acting up
Respectable form, perfected an electrical storm
Expect that I'm exceptional, full blown profession
We reserve the right to conserve while in congression
