Apaches is the first demo of “Until It Breaks” (tenth track from Linkin Park’s fifth studio album Living Things) released in 2013 in the LP Underground 13 EP.
It contains what would later become the first section of the song. The only differences is Chester’s lyrics and some music parts.
[Intro: Mike Shinoda]
It goes a one, two, three...
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
I don’t need to sweat it when a competition come
Original style like an 808 drum
So I don’t run the track, no, I make the track run
My mama taught me words, my daddy built rockets
I put ’em both together, now tell me what I got
It's a pretty smart weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
But learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it like that
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
It ain't over ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right
’Cause once you get the teeth in, nothing really fights
And as for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose
And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you
I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view, like that
