I am the grindhouse emperor sitting on my throne
I am a needle in a haystack, about to crack
Looking at myself through your negative eyes
I am a parasite, a king of light
With my crown of thornes, and my punished faith
Locked in your mind of impulsive hate
Separated from your self-absorbed nation
I made my way to a cosmic revelation
Only then I could open up my eyes
with my fist held up high, I gotta justify
I am a liar
I am a thief
I am the one who spread the disease
From love to hate to hope my soul has wandered
My optimistic mind left behind
As a mountain I crumbled to the sea
Like a forest vanished by machines
Trapped within a repetitive dream
With hatred I built a free regime
Only then I could open up my eyes
With my fist held up high, I gotta justify
I am a liar
I am a thief
I am the one who spread the disease
I am the grindhouse emperor baby,
welcome
welcome to my kingdom of hatred
