Take Control Lyrics by Slayer

Repentless

2015

[Verse 1]
Voice is a weapon; bombs are away
Mind's a trigger, fire away
World's in a crossfire of panic and fear
The war is upon us; I say it starts here

[Chorus 1]
We will take control
Of this abortion called society
I despise the mediocrity
Inject the system with something new
A social terror to lead the few

[Verse 2]
Why call it the land of the free?
Political banter—if you ask me
Defusing a problem, the question is how
With imminent conflict, the answer starts now

[Verse 3]
I can say
We're not the answer to the world's decay
Here to stay
We're just the ones who won't go away

[Chorus 2]
We will take control
Of this disaster called society
I despise the mediocrity
So now I'm going to introduce
A social terror that's on the loose

[Lead: King]

[Verse 4]
I am the propaganda war machine
The face of fury and obscenity
So when society has gone astray
I'll be the one to pave the way
They'll never fuck with my reality
'Cause this right here to me is unity
When all is done, we'll have always shown
A domination that was never known

[Chorus 3]
We will take control
Of this abortion called society
I despise the mediocrity
We are the torch that lights the fuse
A social terror with nothing to lose
