[Pledge: Children]

Together we are, a powerful force, as one, mind, body and soul

Let no evil enter nor attempt to reduce us because of the beliefs we hold

And with this love, combined with our strength, we ward off pain and stress

Technician I am, wholeheartedly, in life and in death


[Verse 1: Tech N9ne]

Okay I get it, I'm an F.O.N., Freak of Nature

But the pen is gonna heat the paper

Was a problem in the incubator

Mom and dad was a creature maker

I never need the shaker

The beat from tape were the teacher later

Now you're the beast awakener

I don't think the streets are safer

My misery seepin' through my delivery

Bitter, we givers and they keep my figures, don't try to nigga me

The grave digger is hither, he is no kidder, see

Consider the dark energy, sinner be inner me

Black diamonds all around callin' all the down definites

Who saw the clown and now steppin' with that tall amount of big Tech and shit

Aah-ooh, 3 times (aah-ooh, aah-ooh)

My people, they know what that defines

What the people are lovin', and that's T-9

He rhyme and make 'em make a beeline

They 'bout to hate, make out the great

They mouth'll break if they don't pay off the cake

Stay out my face, you don't want me to lay out the fake

Flip the sick and pray thou relate

That I'm incredible and straight out the gate


[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

We are the darkness, but we're leaving

We are the gods that are deceiving

We are the painters of blind-faith

We are the children of your rivals

Holding guns while reading Bibles

Go ahead and seal your fate

Straight out the gate


[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]

You see the face of EBAH on Tech N9na

Evil Brain, Angel Heart, I remain in the dark and anointed

With holy, they console me when they know we sin

Got a hold of me, why they let go of me? I'm double jointed

I'm wicked and I represent the sickness

All you fraudulents feeling I'm falling offending the father

I'll place you in the deepest darkest part of abyss

Nobody but you and without any food and no agua

I'll blacken the sun on you bitches

Sat in the dungeons and ditches

Yappin' is one of your glitches - halt it

The Kraken has come with the quickness

Back and I'm plundering chicks

And laughing you dummies trip with Exalted

Tech N9ne

Fuck the industry, independents, we enemies to them and he that's blind

The champ is here, the vamp is near

Huntin' you heathens, hella hungry, and I'm amped this year


[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

We are the darkness, but we're leaving

We are the gods that are deceiving

We are the painters of blind-faith

We are the children of your rivals

Holding guns while reading Bibles

Go ahead and seal your fate

Straight out the gate


[Verse 3: Tech N9ne]

I am the public enemy number one

Fuck your fame, I became the name of a gun

Now they parents hate Aaron because they sons

And daughters wanna be martyrs, believing in my art, ain't it young?

All I got is my balls and rap

I'm appalled that y'all want me to fall, call it craps (he know)

Suckers hate it, now they crawlin' back 'cause I'm tall as Shaq

And I'm always up for brawlin', that's (a memo)

Strange Music saved my life

I was fuckin' it then the music became my wife

Nobody on this planet can tame my mic

Call me crazy, don't matter, fucking insane, I like

[Bridge: Krizz Kaliko & Tech N9ne]

When the sun's beam melts

Everyone screams, "Help!"

Then only one king's felt

When telling all survivors, "Welcome to Something Else!"


[Interlude: Tech N9ne]

And I say Kansas City

Will always stay Kansas City

Yeah, this is Something Else, baby

Let's go!


[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

We are the darkness, but we're leaving

We are the gods that are deceiving

We are the painters of blind-faith

We are the children of your rivals

Holding guns while reading Bibles

Go ahead and seal your fate

Straight out the gate


[Outro: Tech N9ne]

I ain't knockin' no more, I'm breakin' in!
