Bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mi-

Liberate your mind, you motherfucker
You're so narrow-minded, so narrow-minded
So, liberate your mind, you motherfucker
Will you liberate your mind?
Liberate your mind, you motherfucker
You're so narrow-minded, so narrow-minded
So, liberate your mind, you motherfucker
Will you liberate your mind this time?

Bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind
Can't you see that the pace has just fallen behind?
All the hate in your heart will be leaving you blind
So, bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind now

Bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind
Can't you see that the pace has just fallen behind?
All the hate in your heart will be leaving you blind
So, bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind this time

Waiting, for your modern messiah
To take away all the hatred
That darkens the light in your eye
Still awaiting, I

Liberate your mind, you motherfucker
You're so narrow-minded, so narrow-minded
So, liberate your mind, you motherfucker
Will you liberate your mind?
Liberate your mind, you motherfucker
You're so narrow-minded, so narrow-minded
So, liberate your mind, you motherfucker
Will you liberate your mind this time?





Bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind
Can't you see that the pace has just fallen behind?
All the hate in your heart will be leaving you blind
So, bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind now

Bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind
Can't you see that the pace has just fallen behind?
All the hate in your heart will be leaving you blind
So, bold motherfucker, don't you limit your mind this time

Waiting, for your modern messiah
To take away all the hatred
That darkens the light in your eye
Still awaiting, I

"Out of Zion shall come forth a law
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem
Nation shall not raise sword against nation
And they shall not learn war anymore
For the mouth of the Lord hath spoken"

Waiting, for your modern messiah
To take away all the hatred
That darkens the light in your eye
How long will we be waiting
For your modern messiah
To take away all the hatred
That darkens the light in your eye?

Still awaiting, I
Still awaiting, I

@lukebolotnik

Mine were this, Black Label by Lamb of God, Deadly Sinners by 3 Inches of Blood and like 7 others. THUG 1 had one of my favorite soundtracks also and is my favorite game. Although American Wasteland has fuck ton of god songs also. My favorite being Gravedancer by Pig Destroyer which are one of my all time favorite grindcore bands, but mainly for their first three albums.
