metal is dead
Stuck Mojo Lyrics

You took a hostage with a loaded gun
You're holding good music hostage with your harmful, repetitive sound

And this has gone on for too long son
Your music has been dominating for too long, it's time for a change

You're not an artist you're just a clown
You lack the creativity and talent required to be an actual artist, your music is merely entertainment

You're the circus when you're in town
Your music is like a circus act, flashy and hollow, lacking real substance and depth

You've caused a state of confusion
Your music has led to a state of confusion and lack of clarity in the world of metal

Dumbed down the public and created an illusion
Your music has reduced the intelligence and discernment of the public, creating a false perception of what metal should be

A magician you sawed your girl in half
You use gimmicks and stunts to distract from the fact that your music lacks real substance

You might have fooled the crowd
You may have deceived some people into thinking your music is good and original

But all I can do is ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
But in reality, your music is a joke and unworthy of serious recognition

Now I can go on for days and days
I have a lot more to say about how terrible your music is

I see right through like you were an x-ray
I understand your gimmicks and tricks, and I see that they don't measure up to real musical talent

Smacked up
You're high and delusional

You better back up I'm about to act up
You should retreat now, because I'm about to speak out against your music and expose your lack of musical depth

You're just a fashion show
Your music is only about image and trends, not actual musical talent and inspiration

And you shit on everything I know
Your music disrespects the history and legacy of metal, and everything I know about its real value and potential

And now I'm seeing red
I'm outraged and angry, as I witness the decline of metal due to your music and influence

Cause you pulled the trigger
Your music is responsible for the death of metal as a meaningful and inspiring genre

Don't need that four leaf clover
We don't need your lucky charm or gimmick to sell music, we need real talent and originality

Your fifteen minutes, Yeah it's over
Your time under the spotlight of fame and hype is over, and it's time for real musicians to shine

But there'll be more just like you
Unfortunately, there will always be more untalented and gimmicky musicians copying each other and degrading the quality of metal

Always following, thieving and borrowing
They will always imitate and plagiarize, never innovating or inspiring in their own right

Dying to find the formula
They are desperate to find a formula or recipe for fame and fortune, instead of finding their own unique voice and sound

Man you ain't Freddy Krueger
You're not a true horror, shock or metal legend, just a pale copy of the icons who came before you

You're just Count Chocula
You're just a cheap, sugary and forgettable cereal, not a real and lasting music brand

Silly rabbit this ain't no trick
You can't trick or fool us with your shallow music and bland image, we see through your gimmicks and nonsense

Cause I walk the walk
I can back up my words and criticisms, because I truly appreciate and respect the genre of metal

And your minute-made riffs
Your riffs and songs are cheap, mass-produced and uninspired, lacking any real soul or passion

They ride the dick
They are merely copying or riding the coattails of other more talented musicians, instead of finding their own unique voice and style

Where in the hell are my microphone fiends
I miss the real and passionate MC's, who used to elevate and inspire the art of metal and rap

Those real MC's who spit a hot sixteen
Those true master lyricists who could craft intricate, poetic and powerful verses to uplift and challenge their listeners

Cause everything I'm hearing now sounds the same
I'm sick and tired of the same old, formulaic and repetitive rap-metal songs and sounds, which lack any real originality or innovation

Can we please get variety back up in the game
I implore the industry and artists to embrace diversity, experimentation and risk-taking, instead of just following the same old trends and formulas

Everybody can't be Tip or Jeezy
Not everyone can be a successful and original pioneer like Q-Tip or Young Jeezy, but they can certainly strive to be their own unique voice and inspired artist

Thugs selling drugs like it's so easy
I'm tired of the glorification of criminal and destructive lifestyles in rap-metal, which only perpetuate stereotypes and harm society

Sounding weak wack corny and cheesy
The current state of rap-metal is pathetic and cringe-worthy, lacking any real depth or substance, and only appealing to the lowest common denominator

They rose lifeless in the shadows of greatness
These untalented and gimmicky musicians emerged as a response to the great legends and pioneers of metal, but they lack any real spark or life

With vacant eyes they gorge blindly on their own flesh
They are blindly consuming and regurgitating their own shallow and uninspired music, without any real self-awareness or critical thinking

Making a mockery of the millions they would dare to lead
They are mocking and disrespecting their own fans and followers, by providing them with subpar and cheap music, instead of real inspiration and creativity

Where once was passion Now only vanity and avarice dwell
Where there used to be real passion and dedication to the art of metal rap, there now only exists greed and self-promotion, at the expense of the music's quality and value

A puppet show whose masters devour their young with delight
These musicians and their handlers are like puppets who are controlled and manipulated by the music industry, which only cares about profits and fame, not the well-being or development of the artists

And even as they are ground in the mouths of their makers, they sing
Even as they are exploited and degraded by the music industry, these musicians still sing and make music, without realizing how damaging and harmful it can be to themselves and the genre of metal

Songs that are as empty as their words
Their music and lyrics are completely devoid of any real meaning or substance, just like their personalities and values

As meaningless as their promises
Their promises of fame, glory, and success are just as empty and meaningless as their music and lyrics, and they only serve to deceive and manipulate their fans and listeners

And as dead as their souls
These musicians have no real passion, inspiration or creativity left in their souls, and they only continue to make music for the sake of money, fame and attention
