Speaking about Bulletproof, Machine Head’s Robb Flynn says: “The lyrics for Bulletproof were finished in the aftermath of not only the Ahmaud Arbery murder at the hands of white supremacist, but everything twisting out of control in our world.
“The isolation and craziness of the pandemic, the lockd...
America, tearing at the seams
The tension is rising, corruption and greed
Hysteria, inequality
The rich mad with power, the poor left to bleed
Bleeding, hemorrhaging
Driven to our knees
The beatings, the chokings, the violent decree
An effigy burning dollar bills
The stock market profits with every kill
Each day the toll higher
Bail out the bastards
Nothing to the poor
Distract and deny
Deflect and decide
The sacrificial lamb for the knife
'Cause what's another life?
For them it's all worth the price
Oh father they are the
Grave makers
Soul takers
Oathbreakers
We must be
Bulletproof
(One body)
Bulletproof
(Unbroken)
Bulletproof
(One struggle)
Show no fear, speak the truth
Bullet
Bullet
Bulletproof
Obliterate, see through all the lies
The media tells us the stories they hide
Incinerate gods they bring to life
The hypocrite Christians proclaiming pro-life
These times are abortion
Twisting the truth, contortion is a game
They taunt and they tame
They shout and they shame
The cruelty is the point of the pain
They need someone to blame
A scapegoat to vent their rage
Oh father they are the
Grave makers
Soul takers
Oathbreakers
We must be
Bulletproof
(One body)
Bulletproof
(Unbroken)
Bulletproof
(One struggle)
Show no fear, speak the truth
Bullet
Bullet
Bulletproof
These hooks peel back the lies
Coronavirus eyes
Wake the fuck up America, ripping at the seams
The tension is rising, corruption and greed
Incinerate the gods they bring to life
The Christians proclaiming pro-life
Grave makers
Soul takers
Oathbreakers
We must be
Bulletproof
(One body)
Bulletproof
(Unbroken)
Bulletproof
(One struggle)
Show no fear, speak the truth
Bullet
Bullet
Bulletproof
Slowly we take our necks from the noose
As we set fire to the roof
Invincible we are the truth
We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
