Gimme the track get back and let me rip this up no jive no shuck as I truck loads of funk for your rump so pump your fist and come and get a bump of this Witness a kid don't even own his own soul playin' the other role just to be down with the foe I can't understand a coward giving up his power when you're livin' in the last hour twelve o'clock Jesus is comin' back schedule is tight I gotta keep my stuff intact slack is wack it's time out for the hack strengthen up your back Take a look at your friends is that what you want They're as empty air, just out for a jaunt 3,7,9,10,12,14 times harpin' at you with those stale old rhymes Tellin' you that livin' your life for HIM Is a waste of time you're out on a limb Remember the times I pulled you through Or maybe you don't, you never knew What a tragedy it is to see you become less that you ought to be Lose that grade-school mentality the key to see the Trinity Lies open in the Book of Life to put an end to human strife Speaking out against idolatry He came to set the captives free You think you got rights, well I had 'em too But I gave 'em all up when I died for you You can't come to me cause you're good enough Since the fall of man I'll call your bluff I don't want to see you suffer anymore So go ahead friend, open up the door That leads to freedom from guilt and pain Got nothin' to lose everything to gain Give it up To the one Who gave you His own Son

[@AndyVanBass]

P.I.D. (aka Preachas) rapping on verse 1, Fred Lynch, Barry G Hogan; K-Mack The Knife scratching. Who's rapping on v2, Tourniquet?

[@trickshotsmoviesandcubing2317]

yes

[@christianforbes-so3zl]

Did these guys start rap metal by accident?

[@Ziomaletto]

Them and Anthrax.

[@reverendfawkes6138]

@@Ziomaletto Aerosmith was mainstream with the genre clash first, but it was commonplace in LA since the late 70s to have punk/hardcore bands share a stage, with local rap groups as a way to unite different anti-authority groups [and to sell tickets because that shit sold *tickets*].

[@DavidHaley-dh9uc]

No, this was there only rap song I know of. At the ,4:00 mark on, the song plays both themes, weaving two different sounds together. Ted was heavily influenced by Classical music. It's through everything he wrote. 😉😊

[@fuzzymike420]

​@DavidHaley-dh9uc the rappers were called P.I.D. it stood for preachers in disguise. They were a late 80's early 90's Christian rap group. Just as Tourniquet was a Christian thrash band.

2:02 when the song gets great

[@jaymzleutz]

Anthrax, Tourniquet... Every single band that decided to mix metal and hip hop just achieved such an epic failure. Tourniquet ROX. This track does not.

[@Phantasm2Cuda]

stupid take

[@Littlemangoneinsane]

True that.

[@trickshotsmoviesandcubing2317]

From 2:02 onward is great
