Fistful of Steel lyrics

Check it

Silence, something about silence makes me sick

'Cause silence can be violent sorta like a slit wrist

If the vibe was suicide, then you would push the button

But if you're bowin' down, then let me do the cuttin'

Some speak the sounds but speak in silent voices

Like radio is silent though it fills the air with noises

Transmissions bring submission as you mold to the unreal

And mad boy grips the microphone with a fistful of steel

(Yeah)

And mad boy grips the microphone with a fistful of steel

With a fistful of steel

('Cause I know the power of the question)

With a fistful of steel

With a fistful of steel

(And I won't stop 'cause I know the power of the question)

It's time to flow like the fluid in your veins

If you will it, I will spill it and you're out

Just as quick as you came

Not a silent one, but a defiant one

Never a normal one 'cause I'm the bastard son

With the visions of the move, vocals not to soothe

But to ignite and put in flight my sense of militance

Groovin', playin' that game called survival

The status, the elite, the enemy, the rival

The silent sheep slippin', riffin', trippin'

Give you a glimpse of the reality I'm grippin'

Steppin' into the jam and I'm slammin' like Shaquille

Mad boy grips the microphone with a fistful of steel

(Yeah)

And mad boy grips the microphone with a fistful of steel

With a fistful of steel

('Cause I know the power of the question)

With a fistful of steel

With a fistful of steel

(And I won't stop 'cause I know the power of the question)

Aw, shit

(And I won't stop, 'cause I know the power of the question!)

And if the vibe was suicide, then you would push the button

But if you're bowin' down, then let me do the cuttin'

Yeah

Come on

A .44 full of bullets

Face full of pale

Eyes full of empty

A stare full of nails

The roulette ball

Rolls alone on the wheel

A mind full of fire

A fistful of steel

And if the vibe was suicide, then you would push the button

But if you're bowin' down, then let me do the cuttin'

Yeah

With a fistful of steel

Come on

With a fistful of steel
