SYSTEM OF A DOWN - SOIL LYRICS

Soil Lyrics

THE PHOENIX HE HELPED CREATE,
OUT OF CONTROL BOY WITHOUT A DAD,
SHOT THE GUN THAT STARTLED MY LIFE,
WHILE I DROVE HIM WITH A FORTY-FIVE.

FRIENDS FOR YEARS IMAGES IN RED,
BLEW OFF HIS OWN MOTHER-FUCKIN HEAD,
CONFIDENCE, DEATH, INSECURITY,
MEN FALL UNREALIZED,
UNREALIZED, UNREALIZED.

MAKING A DECISION OF DEATH,
WHILE EVERYONE AROUND YOU PLED,
NOW YOU FLY IN PEACE,
I HOPE, MY FRIEND,
A MAN CAN'T AVOID WHAT HE'S MEANT TO DO,
WHEN HE'S MEANT TO DO IT,
EVEN IF HE DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO,
MY MEMORIES ARE OF FUN AND FRIENDSHIP,
OF WEAKNESS WITHIN THE STRENGTH OF YOUTH,
FOR REASONS UNDEFINED, REASONS UNDEFINED,
REASONS UNDEFINED, REASONS UNDEFINED.

FRIENDS FOR YEARS IMAGES IN RED,
BLEW OFF HIS OWN MOTHER-FUCKIN HEAD,
CONFIDENCE, DEATH, INSECURITY,
MEN FALL UNREALIZED,

DON'T YOU REALIZE,
EVIL, LIVES IN THE M-FUCKING SKIN,
DON'T YOU REALIZE,
EVIL, LIVES IN THE M-FUCKING SKIN,

UNREALIZED, UNREALIZED.

DON'T YOU, REALIZE, EVIL,
LIVES IN THE MOTHER-FUCKING SKIN,
DON'T YOU, REALIZE , THAT EVIL,
LIVES IN THE MOTHER-FUCKING.

This Songs About When Daron And Serj Were In Their Previous Band, Soil, And Their Bassist, Dave Blew Off His Head And Thats How The Band Split. Then Daron And Serj Went To SAOD With John And Andy Kuymchnmjky Who Was Replaced By Shavo, Later. Dave Killed Himself Over His Girlfreind, Talar, Which SOAd Talks About In Roullette, Talar Backwards: Ralat, From His Point Of Veiw. Thats Why It Says:
"WHY DID YOU TAKE HIM AWAY FROM US YOU MOTHERFUCKAH, FUCKAH"
Also He Was High When He Did It Which They Talk About In Peephole And Thats Why It Says:
"A MAN CAN'T AVOID WHAT HE'S MEANT TO DO,
WHEN HE'S MEANT TO DO IT,
EVEN IF HE DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO"
-True Story-

This song is right on spot! If I would introduce SOAD to anyone I think I would let them hear this song as a high priority choice. But there are of course lots of other really great songs from SOAD.

This song was pretty good though it took me a bit to get the rythm.One thing though, why is it all in caps?I mean I understand that most of the time he's screaming the words, but still.

its actually about the death of his friend not suicide that is why he goes " why the fuck did you take him away from us you mother fuckers " nubs

I do want to add something to this, you forgot one verse; "WHY THE FUCK DID YOU TAKE HIM AWAY FROM US YOU MOTHER FUCKAH!!!!!!!!!" and Serj then says "Fuckah" about 2 or 3 more times if not 4.

the greatest soad song ever ? yeh, clearly it's about suicide amazing lyrics ' my memories are of fun and friendship of weakness in the strength of youth ' serge at his most poetic classis soad guitars serge belts out this one more like he's doing rhythm poetry than a song, and to great effect. It is truly gripping. hopefully soad's intensity won't fade with time like so many other great bands.
