Dark Lotus made its debut with the single "Echo Side", which was later released on Insane Clown Posse's 1999 album The Amazing Jeckel Brothers. It was later announced that each member "would act as a 'petal' of the lotus," and that there would be six members. After speculation as to who the sixth member would be, including rumors that Esham would join the group, it was announced that Marz would be a member.
Dark Lotus released their first album, Tales from the Lotus Pod, in 2001. Mike E. Clark was brought in to produce the album, but left the project after producing four songs, and Fritz the Cat produced the rest of the album. The album peaked at #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart, #6 on the Top Independent Albums chart, and #158 on the Billboard 200. Marz left the group, and was replaced by James Lowery. In 2002, Tales from the Lotus Pod was reissued in a new version removing Marz' vocals. On April 6, 2004, Dark Lotus released their second studio album, Black Rain. It peaked at #3 on the Top Independent Albums chart, and at #71 on the Billboard 200.
Lowery left the group, and a third album, The Opaque Brotherhood, was released without him. It peaked at #4 on the Top Independent Albums chart, #23 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, #45 on the Top Internet Albums chart, and #45 on the Billboard 200.[4] Allrovi reviewer Stewart Mason praised the album, writing "Nothing on The Opaque Brotherhood will convince anyone who isn't already a fan, but the tormented lyrics and matter-of-fact delivery remove a layer or two of distance and artifice from the band's familiar themes, and make them that much more disturbing as a result.".
We Danced
Dark Lotus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It was a dark and stormy night,
when five children of the Lotus crept into a local cemetery,
their intentions were nothing more than to smoke marijoowana leafs
and drink acholic beverages.
But these five young boys were soon joined by some very unlikely company.
If fact, for the children of the Lotus,
this was some company that they could only dream of.
I'm talking about they were joined by 5 ravishing,
beautiful, lovely dead women who opened up to these boys
and gave them their all.
[Jamie Madrox:]
Do you like the Ouija, we dance
Blood, flesh, romance
Right there, right in front of the tomb
Beautiful, horrific, and the moon
Dead flesh, crazy hormones
Me with a hard dick
Her with her neck broke
We did the tango, she breathed
She wiped blood on a killa's sleeve
Now I ain't ever been one to pass
She might be dead but she got a nice ass
Riding to the bone, I like dead meat
Wearing nothing but her panties
Shaking to the beat
So you like to dance
Is that magic
Is that your ass
In back I'm grabbing
You're getting kinda freaky
Biting on my neck
My heart is beating fast
My underwear's wet
And we danced...
[Chorus:]
I can't believe we danced
And I don't even dance
I can't believe we danced
And I don't even dance
[Monoxide Child:]
Sitting with my thoughts by the Mausoleum
I can't believe my eyes but I know I see them
She walked up to me
"Can I have this dance?"
And put her hand right into my pants
She had a slit in her throat
But I wasn't even tripping a bit
But I was kinda bucking the bitch
Missing her lip
She had a long tongue
Stuck it straight down my throat
And when I went to grab her titty
It just turned to smoke
And the bitch's mouth started bleeding again
I had to open up her cheeks so my dick'll fit in
I love the blood and guts
And all the sex with the dead
I love the sluts with the snake coming out of they head
[Shaggy 2 Dope:]
Damn, was there something special in that
When I swallowed it down
It kinda pushed my wig back
Fact wait, let me rub my eyes
What I'm seeing right now
Starting to make my pants rise
Hello beauty queen
Can I have this dance
And when the song is over
Can I see some romance?
So what?
You can see ya skull through your hair
I only got one concern
Pulling down ya underwear
As I lick the skin across her hip
I feel my tounge slip in into her rip
A neden or a leg
It don't matter to me
Cause dancing through the cemetery gots me in ecstasy
And we danced
[Chorus]
[Blaze Ya Dead Homie:]
My first thought when I seen her rise above the ground
My one and only dead bitch had been found
She was the high school prom queen
Miss teen and shit
Pressure was too tight
She cut her wrist
Her clothes a little tattered
It ain't matter though
All I wanna do is stick my dick in her jaw bone
Spent about 10, frozen, decomposing
Sweet talk the freak till I get them legs open
Can't wait to get up in her decayed womb
She's been untouched for 5 years
In her tomb
She rising up fo a killa
To be the only one
Magic dead fuck smell every time she cums
[Violent:]
I was lonely
I had no one
Mind as well do masturbation
I'll jack off while Shaggy smooches
I'm watching them from the bushes
Had my face down in my boodrest
I felt something poking my ass
It's another ghouly girly
Look at me
I'm naked early
She came under me and mangled
She had no feet
Skin just dangled
We went behind a tombstone
And I said, "Your boobies, may I hold them?"
She lifted up her crusty sweater
They were blue and stuck together
Gently I peel them apart
And her skin ripped open
You could see her heart
And we danced...
[Chorus repeats until song ends]
The song "We Danced" by Dark Lotus features lyrics that depict five children of the Lotus smoking marijuana and drinking alcoholic beverages in a cemetery when they are suddenly joined by five dead women. The story then follows each member of the group as they dance and engage in sexual acts with the dead women. Even though the theme of the song is gruesome, it is disturbingly intriguing, since it explores a taboo subject about the nature of life and death.
The first verse by Violent J sets the scene with a dark, stormy night where five children of the Lotus escaped to a cemetery for recreational activities. The second verse by Jamie Madrox explores the topic of intimacy with a dead woman. Monoxide Child's verse follows a similar theme, about how he can't believe that he is engaging with a dead woman but does not seem to mind it. Shaggy 2 Dope's verse describes how he is fascinated by this strange new world, and Blaze Ya Dead Homie's verse speaks to the singer's desire for his deceased prom queen. Violent J's final verse once again shows how he masturbates while watching his peers dance with the dead.
Overall, the song "We Danced" describes the taboo concept of necrophilia in a clearly fictional manner. While it may make listeners uncomfortable, it is nonetheless captivating and thought-provoking.

Do you like the Ouija, we dance
Do you have an affinity for the Ouija board? Let us engage in a dance.
Blood, flesh, romance
Blood, flesh, and romance intertwine during our encounter.
Right there, right in front of the tomb
Right in that exact spot, in front of the tombstone,
Beautiful, horrific, and the moon
A juxtaposition of beauty and horror, illuminated by the moon's glow
Dead flesh, crazy hormones
Decaying flesh alongside intense hormonal feelings
Me with a hard dick
I, too, experiencing an erection
Her with her neck broke
She, with her neck twisted and broken
We did the tango, she breathed
We engaged in the tango, and she exhaled
She wiped blood on a killa's sleeve
She used her hand covered in blood to stain a killer's garment
Now I ain't ever been one to pass
I have never been one to decline an opportunity
She might be dead but she got a nice ass
Even if she is deceased, she possesses an attractive buttocks
Riding to the bone, I like dead meat
Engaging in sexual activity to the point where bones are involved, I enjoy the company of the deceased
Wearing nothing but her panties
Wearing only her undergarments
Shaking to the beat
Moving and dancing in synchronization with the rhythm
So you like to dance
You also enjoy dancing
Is that magic
Is this some form of sorcery or supernatural phenomenon?
Is that your ass
Is that your buttocks?
In back I'm grabbing
From behind, I am grasping
You're getting kinda freaky
You are starting to exhibit unusual behavior
Biting on my neck
Biting on my neck
My heart is beating fast
My heart is pounding rapidly
My underwear's wet
My undergarments are soaked with moisture
And we danced...
And we danced...
I can't believe we danced
I am astonished that we engaged in a dance
And I don't even dance
Especially considering that I do not typically dance
Sitting with my thoughts by the Mausoleum
While contemplating alone near the Mausoleum
I can't believe my eyes but I know I see them
I am astonished by what I see, even though I am aware of their existence
She walked up to me
She approached me
“Can I have this dance?”
She asked me if she could share a dance with me
And put her hand right into my pants
She boldly inserted her hand into my pants
She had a slit in her throat
There was a cut or a wound in her throat
But I wasn't even tripping a bit
However, I was not bothered or affected by it
But I was kinda bucking the bitch
Although I hesitated or had reservations, I engaged with her sexually
Missing her lip
Her lip was absent or incomplete
She had a long tongue
She possessed a lengthy tongue
Stuck it straight down my throat
She inserted it directly into my throat
And when I went to grab her titty
As I reached to touch her breast
It just turned to smoke
It instantly transformed into smoke
And the bitch's mouth started bleeding again
Furthermore, the woman's mouth began to bleed once more
I had to open up her cheeks so my dick'll fit in
I had to spread apart her buttocks so that my penis could be accommodated
I love the blood and guts
I have an affection for blood and internal organs
And all the sex with the dead
As well as engaging in sexual intercourse with the deceased
I love the sluts with the snake coming out of they head
I am particularly fond of promiscuous women adorned with snakes protruding from their heads
Damn, was there something special in that
Goodness, was there something unique or extraordinary within that substance?
When I swallowed it down
When I consumed it
It kinda pushed my wig back
It had a certain effect on me
Fact wait, let me rub my eyes
Actually, wait for a moment, let me rub my eyes
What I'm seeing right now
Because what I am witnessing at this moment
Starting to make my pants rise
Is starting to create arousal in my pants
Hello beauty queen
Greetings, my majestic queen
Can I have this dance
May I have the honor of dancing with you
And when the song is over
And once the song has concluded
Can I see some romance?
Could I perhaps experience some romance with you?
So what?
So what if
You can see ya skull through your hair
One can observe their skull through their hair
I only got one concern
I only have one worry or focus
Pulling down ya underwear
Removing your undergarments
As I lick the skin across her hip
As I run my tongue along the skin on her hip
I feel my tounge slip in into her rip
I sense my tongue slip into her slit
A neden or a leg
Whether it be a female genitalia or a leg
It don't matter to me
It holds no importance or significance to me
Cause dancing through the cemetery gots me in ecstasy
Because dancing through the graveyard fills me with intense pleasure
And we danced...
And we danced...
I can't believe we danced
I am astounded that we engaged in a dance
And I don't even dance
Despite the fact that I am not usually inclined to dance
My first thought when I seen her rise above the ground
When I witnessed her emerging from the ground, my initial thought was
My one and only dead bitch had been found
I had discovered my one and only deceased woman
She was the high school prom queen
She had been the prom queen during her high school days
Miss teen and shit
The young woman who held the title of Miss Teen and such
Pressure was too tight
The pressure on her became too great
She cut her wrist
As a result, she resorted to cutting her wrist
Her clothes a little tattered
Her garments were slightly torn or damaged
It ain't matter though
However, it did not really matter
All I wanna do is stick my dick in her jaw bone
My only desire is to engage in sexual activity with her jawbone
Spent about 10, frozen, decomposing
I spent approximately ten minutes with her, frozen and decaying
Sweet talk the freak till I get them legs open
I engage in flirtatious conversation with the unusual individual until her legs are spread open
Can't wait to get up in her decayed womb
I am eagerly anticipating entering her decayed uterus
She's been untouched for 5 years
She has remained untouched for a period of five years
In her tomb
Within her grave
She rising up fo a killa
She is resurrecting for the purpose of engaging with a ruthless individual
To be the only one
To be the exclusive partner
Magic dead fuck smell every time she cums
A mystical aroma of deceased sexual activity lingers whenever she orgasms
I was lonely
I felt isolated or alone
I had no one
I lacked companionship
Mind as well do masturbation
I might as well engage in self-pleasure
I'll jack off while Shaggy smooches
I will masturbate while Shaggy engages in sensual kissing
I'm watching them from the bushes
I am observing them from the concealed area of the bushes
Had my face down in my boodrest
My face was pressed against my pillow
I felt something poking my ass
I felt a sensation prodding my buttocks
It's another ghouly girly
It is another female ghostly figure
Look at me
Observe my current state or appearance
I'm naked early
I am unclothed at an early hour
She came under me and mangled
She positioned herself beneath me and caused distortion or disfigurement
She had no feet
She did not possess feet
Skin just dangled
Her skin simply hung loosely
We went behind a tombstone
We moved to a hidden location behind a gravestone
And I said, 'Your boobies, may I hold them?'
And I inquired, 'May I have the pleasure of touching your breasts?'
She lifted up her crusty sweater
She raised her tattered sweater
They were blue and stuck together
Her breasts were blue and appeared to be adhered to one another
Gently I peel them apart
Carefully, I separate them
And her skin ripped open
As a result, her skin tore open
You could see her heart
Her beating heart became visible
And we danced...
And we danced...
I can't believe we danced
I find it hard to believe that we danced
And I don't even dance
Especially since I do not typically engage in dancing
I can't believe we danced
I am astonished that we engaged in a dance
And I don't even dance
Despite the fact that I am not usually inclined to dance
