I Need
1991, always on the run
Seven years ago we wrote this one
Like Ernest and Julio, before it's time
Sever years later and it's holding up fine
Stupid motherf*ckers like to slug us and dis
But there was no bandwagon when we wrote this
'Cause we stretched our boundaries
We opened the door
That no one attempted before
Five guys in shorts, who gives a shit
We do what we like, we don't care where we fit
All you new jacks, what is it?
You're kidding me, get off our dicks
Now we're Anthrax and we take no shit
And we don't care for writing hits
The sound

Let It Burn
Knowledge is key.
You can never know too much.
Open your books aim to the stars
Well I won't let them
Keep me from learning all I can.
Public schools just stand up.
The system feeds our minds.
Did the system tell you about democracy?
The same system that supported slavery?
And doesn't it seem strange that
When we try to make a change
To lock us up and throw away the key.
I won't let you
Play me for a fool
Set me free to go to church
But I cant pray in school.
Make a decision for yourself
Don't bother with any trends
Open up a book
And share the knowledge with your friends.
Did the system tell you about democracy?
The same system that created slavery?
And doesn't it seem strange that
When we try to make a change
To lock us up and throw away the key.
