Ehh... My Sacrifice was good, but lyrically it was kinda simplistic.

What If is #1 for pure lyrical content, followed closely by Faceless Man...

What If:
----

I can't find the rhyme in all my reason
Lost sense of time and all seasons
Feel I've been beaten down
By the words of men who have no ground

Can't sleep beneath the trees of wisdom
When your axe has cut the roots that feed them
Forked tounges in bitter mouths
Can drive a man to bleed from inside out

What If you did, What If you lied?
What If I avenge, What If eye for an eye?

I've seen the wicked fruit of your vine
Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind
Human pride sings a vengefull song
Inspired by the times you've been walked on

My stage is shared by many millions
Who lift their hands up high because they feel this
We are one, we are strong
The more you hold us down the more we press on....

I love this kind of ripe, dense lyrical content. Very very interesting to listen to!
