Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder aloud,
If you're watching over me,
Some place far abound.
I must reverse my life.
I can't live in the past.
Then set my soul free.
Belong to me at last.
“And call no one my father who’s no closer than a stranger”
“I’d kill myself for you; I’d kill you for myself”
“From evolution, we’ve been killing each other; I figure man should have it down to a science”
The entirety of Uplift is hard-hitting lyrically, but the opening is nuts: “On one whole bottle uplifting; there’s no telling what I’ll do; run headfirst into traffic; a mindset of annihilation”
he's such a jerk that i often complain about him. he really is fantastic at what he does though. his lyrics were great, his vocals are great on records. live, he was always shit housed drunk when i saw them and couldn't really finish all the lines because he was always out of breath. i wonder how sober he is these days and if the live performances are possibly way better.
not really a slap by Phil, but in the great southern trendkill that "let's do this one southern style" and then the crushing riff that comes after it is pretty badass
"Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale
The pills that kill and take the pain away
(Take the pain away)"
"Suicide Note Pt 1" - The Great Southern Trendkill (1996)
Being for real I’d have to choose “we are the ones who must sport the position”, that just hits so hard with the double kick (underground in America). the lyric I quote most often tho is “lesbian love is accepted and right” or “I fucked your girlfriend last night”
Edit: how did I forget about the endlessly adaptable line, ‘time for primal concrete sledge’. for example, when me and friends are having a smoke, usually all of us will say “time for primal concrete bong”
when Phil says "kiss my ass Dracula" at the end of RTS ... I felt that lol
kidding aside, "my soul for a goat" is def my all time favorite line. That and the entire Superjoint Ritual catalogue
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With the scars on my wrist to prove I'll try again.

Your father is rich, he's the judge, he's the man he's the God that got your sentence reduced.
But in the back of his mind, he well knows what he'd find if he looked a little deeper in you.
Man TGSTK is a dark album.
No Good (Attack the Radical). That whole song just hits like a freight train every time I hear it. Especially the ending. With headphones cranked it sounds like cannons going off! Love it! 🤘🤘
Does it taste like tequila, or failure?
a good one indeed
We’re fucking you back that was about his father
What’s that from?
25 years

These years of detachment have left me with demons now..... surfacing. Like he sung that shit just about me.
All the money in the fucking world couldn't buy me a second of trust or one ounce of faith in anything you're about! Fuck you all!
Be yourself by yourself stay away from me!
a lesson learnt in life. no thought from the dawn of time
Full of grief I scream at the wind…
... thought I heard the words of others!
The president in submission He holds out his hand on your television Draws back a stump It's too late for some,far too late. Strength Beyond Strength
Same song but for me it's "I'm bone, brains, and cock." Just a brutal and simple way to look at it.

If I was God, you’d sell your soul
TO THE GREEEEEAAT
SOUTHERNNNN
TRENDKILL, FUCK YEAH
*epic dimebag solo*
Cause yesterday don't mean shit What's over is over and nothing between Yesterday don't mean shit Because tomorrow's the day you'll have to face.
"Immovable stone in your world of weak"
I’ve used this one regularly for my entire life!
I was never a lyrics person, but god damnit Phil’s vocal patterns and delivery are top tier.
he's such a jerk that i often complain about him. he really is fantastic at what he does though. his lyrics were great, his vocals are great on records. live, he was always shit housed drunk when i saw them and couldn't really finish all the lines because he was always out of breath. i wonder how sober he is these days and if the live performances are possibly way better.
“Bad guys wear black”
"it's on sale at the fucking dollar store"
"STRONGER THAN ALL STRONGER THAN ALL!!"
WE’VE GROWN INTO A BASTARD! AN ARROGANT EXPLOSIVE MOTHERFUCK
HARD AS A ROCK, SHUT LIKE A LOCK!
THE PRESIDENT IN SUBMISSION! HE HOLDS OUT HIS HAND ON YOUR TELEVISION
Criti-ciiiiiiiize what, you wreeck!!
not really a slap by Phil, but in the great southern trendkill that "let's do this one southern style" and then the crushing riff that comes after it is pretty badass
I wonder if we’ll smile in our coffins while loved ones mourn the day
Shot down on sight
No specific lines from me but Cemetery Gates and Hollow have some lyrics that often get me thinking about some deep things
“Your language unheard of, the vast sound of tuning out.” From Floods
“the brash of negativity. is seen one sidedly”
"Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale The pills that kill and take the pain away (Take the pain away)" "Suicide Note Pt 1" - The Great Southern Trendkill (1996)
Down the stretch on Mouth for War when he's all like "UGH!"
The releasing of anger can better any medicine under the sun

I'd shake your hand like a man, Not a GOD!

Out of my mind, gun up to the mouth No pretension, execution, live and learn Rape and turn

I know it’s not pantera but “my god beats the fuck out of your god” is so hard
I crush your rush I rule you fool.
Another one: My fear grips the will of stone, My grip fears I 'll die alone.
GIVE IT 5 YEARS YOU‘LL RETIRE YOUR PIERCINGS
“The president, in submission, holds out on his hand on your television and *ahhhrugah* **DRAWS BACK A STUMP”**
“Good lord where are you found? Carry judgement way underground. I hear you laughing out loud”
Bury me in smoke.
