"They killed my baby, oh, God, they killed my baby"
"Order in the court, order in the court"
"I will make you pay for this you murderers"
"Order in the court, order in the court
I said order in the court now"
"Now, before this court passes judgement
Will the four defendants please rise and approach the bench"
"Trust me guys, it's all under control
The judge is my uncle, he'll take the insanity plea
Oh, yeah, don't forget my retainer balance"
"Okay, I understand you guys are pleading insanity
Claiming demonic spirits possessed you to do these hideous murders"
"Yeah, word"
"Can you please explain to this court
How these so called spirits made you into these raving madmen?"

Be a witness, as I exercise my exorcism
The evil that lurks within the sin, the terrorism
Possessed by evil spirits, voices from the dead
I come forth with Gravediggaz, in a head full of dread
I've been examined ever since I was semen
They took a sonogram and seen the image of a demon
At birth, nurses surrounded my with needles
And drugged me all up with the diseases of evil
Grew up in Hell, now I dwell in an Islamic Temple
I'm fighting a holy war in the mental
Look deep into my eyes, you'll see visions of death
Possessed by homicide is what I am obsessed
Givin' niggas brain dimples
Draggin' they asses on a hook by they temples
The cause of death is unknown to the cops
'Cause when I kill them, I'm not leavin' one element to autopse
First I'll assassinate 'em and them I'll cremate them
Then take all of his fuckin' ashes and evaporate 'em
Or creep through the graveyard and hunt down your tombstone
Dig up your skeleton and stomp all your fuckin' bones
You try to haunt me nigga, I ain't tryna hear it
Buck-buck-buck, I'll give your ass a Holy Spirit

"Stressful tryna to avoid all impure thoughts 
I am losing my mind and it seems"
"Can you please explain to this court when these problems first began?"
"I don't know what's real or a dream"

The year '84, November, day 10
Overwhelmed by the wicked inspirations of an evil jinn
I realize my ideas has spawned for four hundred years
Of blood sweat and tears
I saw the torture brutal murder of my father
So my brain became stained with the horror
I'm havin' reoccurrin' nightmares
Of being soaking wet, strapped down to the electric chair
I got tackled with handcuffs and shackled in restraint
At the bottom of a Holy Tabernacle
They gave me nothin' to eat for two weeks
And sewed my eye lids open, so I couldn't sleep
About to die from thirst, that's when the minister
Quenched my jaws with a cold glass of vinegar
Upon my wounds they seasoned me with salt
And nailed my handsand feet to the form of the cross 
Ah, I cried
As the blood dripped inside of my eye, refusing to die
Visions of Hell tormented my face
So I chewed my fuckin' arm off and made an escape

"Kill mark, on the way 
No way, goddamnit, f*ck this shit, goddamnit
I don't believe this shit, oh no fuckin' way"
"Oh no, me mataron mi amigo, hijo de la gran puta
"Goddamn, f*ck you son of a bitch"
Esos cogines me mataron mi amigo que voy a cerca, carajo, cono
"When the f*ck am I gon' win?"
"Calm down people, please, calm down
Let us please proceed with the defendants explanation"

Enter the realms of understandin'
And take good heed and you could bleed While I'm standin' 
Three stages of pure hell
Justifications of red cells 
Shh, rain drops hits the pails
Path is dull and narrow
You're stalked by a shadow
I pierced your skull with a fucking arrow
So narrow, only one could enter at a time
Stuck in the center, read the signs
A thousand doors to choose, you better hurry
Don't stop, shit is getting hot as a pot of curry
On your right side there's fire
Your left, deep waters
Watch your step, that's deep waters
What's that comin' through the floor?
It's a claw
Pshh, took his fuckin' ass to the fucking core

Ah
Stroll through the dark conditions
I stone you 'til I see sparks of friction
I chop ya like a coal miner
Then combine the drug and mix it with your blood
Some more, I give you some more and watch you crawl
Guts hit the floor, worms that dig your pores
I trick ya, ha, then I'm quick to syringe
Deep between my thoughts and bust out your skin
You scream, portraits of inflectable pain
You can't stand, you're up to your hands in quick sand
You're sinkin' and sinkin' deep into the earth
Thoughts was possessed since the first day of birth
My mental says it's my turn to possess the matter
Stab you with a dagger of Jacob's Ladder
Thoughts become shattered, confused, and tragic
Fiery thoughts of Gravediggaz M-

"Guilty, next case"
