Fire
Zug Izland Lyrics

I break the melted popsicle sticks and start the show
I am taking control and my performance will begin

Push me in the fire, as you punish my soul
You can try to harm me, but I will not be broken

I thought it was funny when the hungry would break
I found humor in the struggles of others

Blew off every miracle I saw as a fake
I dismissed any signs of hope or positivity as untrue

Show me something positive, I'll show you its flaw
I will find fault in anything good that comes my way

Try to preach your ministry, I'll shatter your jaw
I will not tolerate anyone trying to force their beliefs on me

Try bringing the heat, I feel the heat on my face
I am prepared to face any challenges that come my way

Don't you start me off with a taste of the ogre's.
I do not want to experience the worst of what life has to offer

Fire, baby! Don't you know who we are?
We are powerful and cannot be underestimated

Bye, bye, bye, bye, boy!
You will not succeed in bringing us down

Tighter than a snake can wrap itself 'round your neck
I am in a dangerous and suffocating situation

Watch preying mantis eat a hole in your back
I am witnessing something disturbing and unsettling

You can see the stories so he created the truth
The truth can be manipulated and distorted by those in power

So much goes invisible, seen only by you
There are hidden aspects of reality that only I can perceive

You can see me 'cause when you stare at the sun
I am bright and stand out in a crowd

All I did to figure out, but who makes it run?
I can understand how things work, but I do not know who is in control

Steady pushin' barrel to the back of my head
I am in danger and my life is at risk

Anything to keep the ogre happy is enough for me
I am willing to do whatever it takes to avoid the worst outcomes

Violent J:
Introduction of a different speaker

I remember hearing all you voodoo doctors pray for rivers
I have witnessed desperate attempts to control nature

Hours later comes the thunder
The forces of nature cannot be controlled

Raining showers he delivers
The power of nature can bring both blessings and destruction

Pheasants fighting through the rain
Even the weakest creatures must endure through hardship

They're happy that it's finally falling
The rain brings relief and hope

Tried and true
Something that has been tested and proven reliable

He's there for you again
Even in difficult times, there is still support

But you don't here him calling
Sometimes it is easy to miss the help that is being offered

Pause your life for mischief
Taking a break for fun or mischief can be tempting

And the mischief becomes life itself
Indulging in unhealthy or destructive behaviors can consume your entire life

Before you know it
Time passes quickly

Skin is wrinkled
Aging is inevitable

Teeth are falling like your health
Physical health can deteriorate over time

And what to do?
Feeling lost and unsure of how to proceed

And where to turn?
Looking for guidance and support

And who to blame?
Feeling a need to assign fault or responsibility

And where to go?
Searching for direction and purpose

You feel the demons pulling at your body
Being plagued by inner demons and struggles

You might as well let go
Surrendering to your struggles may seem like the only option
