Album: Green by Forbidden (1997)

What is The Last Time?

Did you notice the sun had turned orange for the last time?
The last time...
Did you notice the moon on the seventh day?
The last time...
did you see the people gathering for the last time?
A past time...
And did you notice the rose, it has bloomed for the last time?
The last time...
Who truly understand the meaning of the symbols we're given?
It's a given
One bites the apple while another drinks unholy water
What is forbidden couldn't stop us from digging deeper
The dam is breaking, it won't hold us back any longer
Don't try to stop it cause the Sistine Chapel is gonna burn


Green

Green - it's never enough
Different shades bought and sold, illusion control
Extortion incest
Greed - it's never enough
They're building us up while they're tearing us down
On their hands is the blood of the ones who had made them
Praise them, save them, break them
Eyes - they watch from inside
So in God do we trust? Paranoid? Not enough
Do you think that it's near?
Yes I do I can feel it
You can't believe in them or what they say
Their colors change
We should have never let them get away
My brothers
Green is in their eyes, green surrounds you
Lies, his story, our past
A lesson not learned, never changed, never learned
Passing on one by one to the lost generation
You can't believe in them or what they say
Their colors change
We should have never let them get away
My brothers
Save them, praise them, break them
True colors


Phat

Raw
Step to the plate or sit the fuck down and watch
Living to please ourselves
Burned
Rising up we will show the whole fucking world no
Nothing will keep us down
Try to write us off, write us off
Never giving up, never gonna give in
Try to kill us off
Never giving up, we never give
Fast
Ripping on trends cause they're used up whores it's slow
That's how we die on the floor
Fuck
Mad at the world, not bitter and weak, hell no
Nothing can keep this done
Try to write us off, write us off
Never giving up, never gonna give in
Try to kill us off
Never giving up, we never give
Punching out the clock and our music is the paycheck
Living for ourselves we don't care about the outside world
Crawling out the cage, now the dog is gonna get some meat
Torn
The pain we must endure
Lies
Putting an end to the crap that you've heard cause now
Nothing will keep us down
Try to write us off, write us off
Never giving up, never gonna give in
Try to kill us off
Never giving up, we never give
Feed us..fetus..fetus..feed us


Over The Middle

Kicking your ass off the turf
Don't try to fight it, it ain't gonna work
Fuck no, it isn't, no way I'm missing
This time your going down
Fusion, a megaton load
Release of anger I'm cleansing my soul
bout time I did collision you're hit
You need to get knocked out
Another time, another place
and the faces are never the same
Every yard that I take I deserve you mother
Rush in, I break through the line
I'm running though ya, cause the ball is mine
I'm gonna take it, you can't protect it
I'll live to see your termination
Crushing I'm ready to kill
No time for thinking adrenaline fill
It's what's expected, won't be rejected
Don't get in front of me
Blitz
Over the middle, you hear the footsteps
Over the middle, you see me flying
The power of God, the money, brutality
Pressure is on, the game is no game to me
High impact collision, pure determination
Blitz
Full contact collision my exhilaration
Punching' out on the field
Knocked out unconscious, cause this is for real
No hesitation, no competition
I said you're going down
Fusion, a megaton load
Release of anger, I'm cleansing my soul
Bout time I did it, collision you're hit
You just sit the fuck down
Blitz


Kanaworms

In your face written in, carved in stone
Here comes that feeling once again
Pop the lid, down we go
Falling fast though the undertow
Missing link crossing path
Bleeding eyes see your fractured past
Point of your vision clear
You'll never...
Cut to the point leaving nothing to hide
Nothing to hide
Out of breath, out of time
You're out of time
You opened it up just to see what's inside
What's inside?
Seek your truth limb to limb
You'll wish you never asked again
Piled up in your mind asked again
Piled up in your mind you'll never...
Level the wall that you've built up inside
Pushed to far this time
Should have never opened it
Just couldn't let it sit
Should of never questioned it
Should of never opened that can of worms
When you popped the lid they crawl across the floor
Watch em writhing everywhere
They're everywhere
When you popped the lid did they fall across the floor
Watch em crawling everywhere
Pop the lid and down we go
It's everywhere, they're everywhere
pop the lid so now you know
They're everywhere, it's everywhere
They're everywhere

An album that criticizes human lust and greed. The title “Green” is about the loved colour of dollars and not that of Nature. No matter natural signs show that we have entered to forbidden areas, we still keep on digging deeper(track titled “What is the last time”) because we are blinded by greed and lust for money (selftitled track “Green”), we never give in and never give for restoring (track titled “Phat”), and we don’t hesitate to use uncontrolled powers for our purposes and dirty interests (nuclear energy (Track titled “Over the middle”) or any kind of toxins with unknown and non reversible impacts (viruses, biological weapons, or even GMO) (track titled “Kanaworms”).
