BEWARE
I close my eyes and seize it
I clench my fists and beat it
I light my torch and burn it
I am the beast I worship...
And I know soon come my time
For in mine void a pale horse burns
But I fear not the time I'm taken
Past the point of no return.
Wage war like no tomorrow
Cuz no hell there won't be one
For all who deny the struggle
The triumphant overcome
Trips to where, few have been
Out of thin air, upon high winds
Rites begin when the sun descends
Have felt what few will ever know
Have seen the truth beneath the glow,
Of the ebb and flow, where roots of all mysteries grow
I am below, so far below
The bottom line
Transmitting live, transmissions rise
From the depths out of controlled by
Suspended glance of an unblinking eyes
Imminent gaze cast 'pon the path that winds
'Pon the path I find, and claim as mine
To ride the waves, of unrest
Made to make me shine as a testament
To why the ways of the blind will never get
Shit but shanked by my disrespect
Dismiss this life, worship death
Cold blood night of serpent's breath
Exhaled like spells from the endlessness
In the bottomless wells of emptiness
Channeled to invoke what we represent
Secret order
Elitist horde of
Creeping fire
Seizing power
Riders of the lupus hour
Eye on palm
Time is gone
Moonlight drawn
Fly til dawn
Sacrifice to rise beyond
Deep inside the violent calm
Of the coming storm
In blood sworn
To glorify and for life adorn
With all that dies to become unborn
I close my eyes and seize it
I clench my fists and beat it
I light my torch and burn it
I am the beast I worship...
I am the beast I worship
In the time before time eyes 'bove which horns
Curve like psychotropic scythes
And smell of torn flesh bled dry
By hell swarms of pestis flies
Vomiting forth flames lit by
An older than ancient force
That slays this life with no remorse
The spiral storm
Of flames inside
The torch I raise
The force I ride
Feel my vessel go up in flames
Flesh torch lit by thee unnamed
Direct connection to the source
Vestment of unnatural force
Forever burning black torch
Wisdom of the old and true
Possessed by the chosen few
Shining to reveal the ways
Of a darkness that pervades
All that is and ever was
Inferno of witches blood
Worship is not on bended knee
Nature knows not of mercy
To pray is to accept defeat
Power pisses on the weak
Bow and beheaded by the beast
Beggar on a bitches leash
Scum is desperate for relief
Worship is the way I ride
Witching currents through the eye
Of storms that force the false to die
Worship the flames with which I rise
Into apocalyptic skies
Harsh winds flay mine flesh to bone
In splintered skeleton I roam
Wastelands with not to call my own
But the path I walk alone
The hunger burns, within my gut
As my bones turn into dust
And I know soon come my time
For in mine void a pale horse burns
But I fear not the time I'm taken
Past the point of no return
Wage war like no tomorrow, know well there wont we one
For all who deny the struggle
The triumphant overcome ...
I close my eyes and seize it
I clench my fists and beat it
I light my torch and burn it
I am the beast I worship...
I am the beast I worship

I can’t believe that their best album isn’t on spotify because of unlicensed samples.

Counterpoint: my anti-anxiety meds have significantly increased the beast within and reduced praying to a minimum.
That said, my old prescription Adderall was about to put me in a psychotic break, my therapist claims. I did listen to far more Death Grips when I was on it.
yes
How are you going one year later,, m8?
@@davidemelia6296 Well my original reply got wiped for... predictable reasons. I've actually replaced my lonely, stressful life with another stressful life but at least with a partner. Changing my environment such has reduced me need for higher dosage of anxiety meds. Indeed, a combination of medication and therapy and environmental changes is needed for most people.
I now regularly talk with people over boardgames. It's... better. A lot better.

Huh. ominous
I hope you find your way out of whatever is troubling you my friend.

This is one of the songs ever made
I'd say its the song in existence
indeed this is a song
True
Can’t argue with that

breadbutt it’s about the power of the self
RIP terry davis
Yall it's just about jerking off
"To pray is to accept defeat" that line, hot damn.
being followed by “power pisses on the weak”
Then "beggar on a b****** leash". This is entire song is a grimdark poem
Mostly about the qlippoth the reverse of the tree of life
To pray is to accept defeat because mc ride knows the black flame and that God doesn't exist it's just delusion and fear manifesting to humans not on the path of evolution
reminds me of mclusky's lyric "faith is admission that we just can't win"
I unironically believe this is one of the greatest songs to ever be created. Like, ever.
@Oscar Hughes the lyrics are the best part for me. The descriptive imagery used is honestly brilliant, and I think the same of Takyon. Lines like "subatomic penetration rapid fire through your skull" and "cryonic haunted bullets hollow tipped with toxic waste" deserve to go down in history
Haven’t heard anything like it before and since.
💯👏👏👏👍
fr, too bad no one has heard it. It's like aeroplane where if you know it, you assume it's like the most popular known, beloved album ever, but if you asked 10 randos what they thought of it, there's a like a 15% chance one of them has even heard of it. And that theoretical eighth of a person probably thinks it's too mainstream.
like, on god frfr no cap deadass
The thing that amazes me about this song is when you read the lyrics it’s a deeply impactful and visceral piece of literature, yet some how Ride just casually raps it out, and adds the emotion that sells the ideas behind this song as a powerful life altering philosophy and individualist approach to art. Fucking insane.
In other words, he performed a song
as corny as saying shit like this is i really think Ride is an actual genius.
Its like this is the last moment where he was fully human and the rest of death grips is not using your braincells for 4 hours.
Very song.

Probably the strongest opener to any album I've ever heard
This is a fucking black metal song set to a hip-hop beat. I can never get past how great it is.
Chromatic There is literally not a single thing about this song that could possibly be described as "black metal". Not even if you're of the "Deafheaven is black metal" generation.
Chromatic isn't this riff from janes addction "up the beach"
davethehostage Are you kidding? Read the lyrics
This is the embodiment of what black metal is all about
SpookyKid94 black what? metal? Where? WHY? NO> YES>>OR>>>>
SpookyKid94 i think he wast talk about the atmospheric
"The game is mine. I deal the cards." Sociopathy at its finest
Oh, he absolutely was, but the words themselves aren't about a lack of empathy. They're about power. I say 'em to myself from time to time to hype myself up, same as a lot of DG lyrics.
You say sociopath I say egoist

You say egoist, I say dark twisted genius
@@lautarolencina5353 You say dark twisted genius, I say you’re 14
He wasnt all that intelligent at all really. Just given power by the CIA and became delusional from it.
MC Ride’s lyricism on this is some of my favourite I’ve ever heard. It’s like listening to a wizard cast a spell
"Dismiss this life, worship death" has been life changing for me
I hope you'll be alright king
@anthony oh I'm great, there's a lot of ways to interpret it
welcome to fascism
tfw Death Grips is so good they make Charles Manson seem like he's making a good point.
death grips can make anyone and anything look good
What if he was making a good point?
@@markusk1015 he was talking about how materialism is bullshit and how he doesn't want to work for someone else.
out of context bad people make a lot of good points.
@@Radgerayden-ist Truest shit ever - He may be right, but in a different context on how you put it.
Why do I feel like this is what's constantly playing in those homeless people who yell at birds heads?

"*BIRDS.*

Scott Clockwork because one of them wrote this song
Ewan is right, MC Ride was homeless.
Everytime I see that profile picture I think it’s one of my old comments lol
Because you've been taught to think of those people as monstrous others I guess
"To pray is to accept defeat" give me the chills every time
absolutely one of the best album openers of all time
The perfect first song for Death Grips' first album. It really sets the tone for the band's entire library.
+rjcripe lyrically it serves as a great thesis as well!
fuck ya
+rjcripe Beware...
+rjcripe not their first album
+rjcripe It seriously couldn't have a better opener than this.
This song is the DNA of EVERY death grips song. Pure music genetics.
yes
Which makes a lot of sense considering it's their very first track on their very first album release. This is basically their thesis statement for Ex-Military and eventually for their music as a group. I feel a lot of people casually listening to this track and the Manson sample will assume the "Beware" is about the "beast" as the "other" or as the evil, but I don't think the song is necessarily condemning the Manson statement. I think the song is, if not outright agreeing with it, at least aligned with it, and the "Beware" is directed at the listener not for them to be afraid of the "beast" but to be cautious that they may not want to go where the band is taking them. Hence it being the first track. It's a warning shot. "this is who we are and what we are about, proceed at your own risk"
real
@@nfsm07their very first track was actually Full Moon.
@@wickedwastelander2410 They were talking about on this specific album, not their discography.
listened to this on max volume for years in high school and now my tinnitus is insufferable

Based and ear ringing pilled
This whole song feels like a manic episode and I love every second of it.
Tarantino is making a Charles Manson movie, and I will be disappointed if he doesn't use this song in the movie
Hopefully it gets picked up by a non-hack director instead.

Wait really? Noided.
now that the man himself is dead its even better
They better also include ATWA from System of a Down.

Why do you have the same elephant prof pic as the guy below this
over 10 yrs later, still the sound of the future.
I remember, it was over a decade ago I first listened to this album. It was November of 2011. I remember exactly where I was, and what I was going through, and what I was feeling at that time. That's what music does. I look back in utter shame and contempt for what I've become.
Become the beast that you want to worship
Same. The song was I Want It I Need It and I was 16 years old. It was 2011
I AM THE BEAST I WORSHIP
You listened to this song? I did too! Wow! It's almost like we're watching the same video!
***** especially when those lyrics got some hypnotic vibes going on
Dang Flabbit cool story
Aphex!
Im a cuck boi
Still their best song.
Gorno Biggs up my sleeves is just a better version of this song.
this is definitely up there but i've seen footage is better. and i want it i need it.
That's just your opinion, man.
(Mine too)
It's up there, together with On GP
On gp is my favorite but this comes close
This aged a lot better than dubstep
Not really
@@daybrink1267 if you think dubstep aged better than one of the best experimental hip hop albums ever I got news for you dawg
@@hopnod777 I don't think Exmilitary aged poorly, I take issue with the concept that dubstep didn't age well. These are two idiotic things to compare because Exmilitary is a single album and Dubstep is a subgenre of EDM. Dubstep grows and evolves on its own and is constantly becoming something new and different (100 Gecs, for example). Exmilitary will never change because it is one album.
Fake dubstep maybe, I'm still bumpin that Burial LP to this day
@@MasDouc genres change. Dubstep changed. Dubstep now is not fake dubstep, nor is Burial. They just different. Same thing happens in every genre.
I'm tired of this bullshit elitism that dubstep is somehow an inferior genre.
Fuck. There's something about this song I can't explain. It's so ominous. Almost scary. I love it.
I think its the ambiant horn that desends in the background
It's the horns, the droning ambient synth in the background, the incredibly dark and apocalyptic lyrics, the occasional rising tones and the almost hypnotic chanting of "God is watching" that blends in with the rest of this hellish combination of noises that create a cacophony of hellish darkness and bleak evil.
@@leonthethird7494 the horns and (BEWARE, GOD IS WATCHING) shit is sampled from the song: Dicky Burton - God Is Watching You
As a hardcore metalhead, these guys are way darker sounding than 90% of the death/black metal bands I've ever heard. And it's fantastic. So glad I decided to take a chance on them.
edit: i was a teenager when i wrote this i know it's cringe you can stop informing me in the replies lmao
SteppupFoRetsam what do you think now?
hell yeah
SteppupFoRetsam bruh what bands do you listen to that you think this is heavier than blackened death metal?
Death Grips sounds like what I assume a snuff film looks like
@@benblevis354 man i used to be a "metalhead" but i quit bc i felt much more mainstream bands like korn and slipknot could make songs way heavier darker and harsher than most that has ever existed since then
I get in such a trance when listening to this song. It just messes me up. Puts me in a spiritual disturbing mindset.
Eindride Lockhart Too hip
Y my pp hard?
i bust a swag when i listen to this song.
I thinks that's the point ya know? The song is about demolishing the idea of earthly religion and becoming your own deity. I am the beast that I warship.
@@meneersfeerbeheer w pfp
This is the fucking rawest song, I adore it. I get filled with dread in the best possible way listening to this.
Happy bday exmilitary
*GOD IS WATCHINGWATCHINGWATCHING*

Kind of sad that I’ll never have the opportunity to hear this for the first time again
This song actually gets better with every single listen, truly one of DG's best
There’s a universe where people have to pay money for Exmilitary.
I would pay tbh
there’s a universe where Charoes Manson was successful in hollywood.
pipe down science-drone
It's called Discogs lmao. Vinyl copies are like 175 bucks or more
3:17 - 5:30 this is incredible; it's like a never-ending onslaught of vile, disturbing imagery that subjects u to the mindset of something which has completely crossed the boundary and lost its place as a human being
Shut the fuck up you mindless degenerate
Shawn Palmtree thank
+Shawn Palmtree He's commenting on the darker meaning of a song. How does this make him a degenerate?
The Ass King
because the death grips fanbase is meme central
+typhoon what's wrong with memes :3
I always come back to this song at least once a week, for that I’m glad it’s never been on any popular streaming service because I’d over play it. Ride somehow can voice what aggression I’ve bottled within myself. Everything MC Ride from “dismiss this life, worship death” in this track “to try not to dwell on myself my empty shell shedding me” in Artificial Death it’s a curiosity really how talented and misunderstood Death Grips is.
This song completely changed my life for the better. More than any other piece of audio ever created. Thanks guys.
I feel like matthew mcconaughey could do a really good impression of that intro
We'll yeah I know that, I've written about the nut job in the past.
Joseph rivas There should be a movie about Manson, and McConaughey should recreate Manson
slosh1997 I could totally see that, especially if he gave a performance like the one he did in True Detective.
slosh1997 There already is a movie about Charlie, its called Helter Skelter
codyandfriendpros agreed
Ohhh that’s what he was talking about this
Some guy on Omegle was typing this in the chat word for word
"When violence is the answer, beware of the question"
This is the best song ive ever heard
I love the contradiction of
“God is watching”
“To pray is to accept defeat”
He aint tellin u shit, hes laying out the options for you to choose your own path in life
I think this song is legit just “be ur own person”
"I am the beast I worship" Is such a motivational line weirdly enough
It's saying "Be whatever the fuck you want to be and worship yourself for it"
It's beautiful
To pray is to accept defeat ISNT contradictory to Christian beliefs. We surrender that we cannot do shit ourselves so we ask God to help us or to do it.
I don't think it's a contradiction. It's two sides of the same coin, it implies God (if he exists) is indeed watching, but he doesn't really give a toss about your prayers, praying is simply an admission that you cannot handle his challenge.
MC Ride plays Skyrim on legendary and never dies
He just runs
Eli Goddu You can literally make one hit boss kill classes. Legendary Skyrim scales the enemies health and damage into the heavens so yeah shut up
Making enemies damage sponges and 1HK you isnt good game design skyrim sucks
scapelife I’m not saying good game design. I’m saying difficulty
@@FG-ww8rc lmao dark souls is easy baby shit for casuals to feel good about themselves and feel like theyre hardcore. play an actual hard game for once
Some of the most honest music ever written.
More like if i knew for a fact tomorrow I would die I’d eat burgers and fries and pepperoni pies
I feel like Cudi makes honest music too he just puts his emotions on his music. But he makes bad music tho some of his albums are dookie. Like this is weird and different and honestly really weird lmao but it’s good af. It makes music sense if that makes any sense

Christopher Jannette im not your friend, guy
The only positive contribution Manson ever made.
He made some good music
he killed black people
Brandon bro chill out, jokes should be nice and balanced
Ymbert Bonaventure Dickens Nah, jokes should just be funny, nothing more than that.
You obviously haven't heard Helter Skelter then.
"to pray is to accept defeat" drops incredibly hard, and i love it
First song of their first album, and its still amazing to see that many new people are still getting into death grips after their first time listening to this amalgamation
"Directed by Flatlander" nice work, like the very minimalistic style of this music video
:)
I think MC Ride is a Buddhist
Fliam Flopper or perhaps an atheist, for he killed god long ago
Fliam Flopper he might be a satanist
I think MC Ride IS the Buddha
While he does embody Satanic beliefes in his songs and takes dives into the Satanic mindset I believe he's closer to Gnosticism than Satanism
This song is about satanism to me, in a good way off course.
Im so grateful that my brother showed me this when i was 12. By the third listen I was hooked and listened to the album outside everyday for months until the next album dropped.
I felt like such a freak at that time and these tracks gave me so much comfort and made me realize theres other people that feel like I did. Thank you so much for the music Death grips.
this is wholesome
I always skipped over this one cause of the long intro, but after listening to it its absolutely in my top 3, death grips have such fucking incredible lyrics, "to pray is to accept defeat" thats an incredible line.
Hardest lyrics of all time.
How do you enjoy conventional rap after Death Grips?
$uicideboy$, that's how
+ロックマン Much more.
+ロックマン you listen to Bones
You probably don't even know what your username means in that language.
+ロックマン You don't.
fucking Death Grips man..I wish they had more interviews MC Ride seems like an interesting guy
That's the appeal though. They're mysterious, they have you coming back for more.
"I'm a very private person," says Burnett. "I have very few people that I call my friends. I'm very distrustful of human beings in general; I'm very distrustful of media. I have no interest in sharing my personal life with the world. Zero."
from a spin article
ROhjklyuiop Yet...he creates music.
Oceanrust4 yeah, he creates music, he has already given to us more than we deserve, we shouldnt expect him to open up about his private life too
Is his music not personal?
I close my eyes and seize it
I clench my fists and beat it
I light my torch and burn it
I am the beast I worship
And I know soon come my time
For in mine void a pale horse burns
But I fear not the time I'm taken
Past the point of no return
Wage war like no tomorrow
'Cause no hell there won't be one
For all who deny the struggle
The triumphant overcome
Trips to where, few have been
Out of thin air, upon high winds
Rites begin when the sun descends
Have felt what few will ever know
Have seen the truth beneath the glow,
Of the ebb and flow, where roots of all mysteries grow
I am below, so far below
The bottom line
Transmitting live, transmissions rise
From the depths out of controlled by
Suspended glance of an unblinking eyes
Imminent gaze cast 'pon the path that winds
'Pon the path I find, and claim as mine
To ride the waves, of unrest
Made to make me shine as a testament
To why the ways of the blind will never get
Shit but shanked by my disrespect
Dismiss this life, worship death
Cold blood night of serpent's breath
Exhaled like spells from the endlessness
In the bottomless wells of emptiness
Channeled to invoke what we represent
Secret order
Elitist horde of
Creeping fire
Seizing power
Riders of the lupus hour
Eye on palm
Time is gone
Moonlight drawn
Fly til dawn
Sacrifice to rise beyond
Deep inside the violent calm
Of the coming storm
In blood sworn
To glorify and for life adorn
With all that dies to become unborn
I close my eyes and seize it
I clench my fists and beat it
I light my torch and burn it
I am the beast I worship
I am the beast I worship
In the time before time eyes 'bove which horns
Curve like psychotropic scythes
And smell of torn flesh bled dry
By hell swarms of pests flies
Vomiting forth flames lit by
An older than ancient force
That slays this life with no remorse
The spiral storm
Of flames inside
The torch I raise
The force I ride
Feel my vessel go up in flames
Flesh torch lit by thee unnamed
Direct connection to the source
Vestment of unnatural force
Forever burning black torch
Wisdom of the old and true
Possessed by the chosen few
Shining to reveal the ways
Of a darkness that pervades
All that is and ever was
Inferno of witches blood
Worship is not on bended knee
Nature knows not of mercy
To pray is to accept defeat
Power pisses on the weak
Bow and beheaded by the beast
Beggar on a bitches leash
Scum is desperate for relief
Worship is the way I ride
Witching currents through the eye
Of storms that force the false to die
Worship the flames with which I rise
Into apocalyptic skies
Harsh winds flay mine flesh to bone
In splintered skeleton I roam
Wastelands with not to call my own
But the path I walk alone
The hunger burns, within my gut
As my bones turn into dust
And I know soon come my time
For in mine void a pale horse burns
But I fear not the time I'm taken
Past the point of no return
Wage war like no tomorrow, know well there wont we one
For all who deny the struggle
The triumphant overcome
I close my eyes and seize it
I clench my fists and beat it
I light my torch and burn it
I am the beast I worship
I am the beast I worship
"in the time before time eyes
'bove which horns curve like psychotropic scythes
and smell of torn flesh bled dry

vomiting forth flames lit by

Ride is seriously amazing at writing lyrics. The imagery here and throughout the entire song is fantastic.
This is a great track. Just started to listen to Death Grips. Awe-inspiring.

I have no fucking clue about Hip Hop, and I just discovered this band 2 weeks ago, cuz I'm an out-of-touch old fart. All I have to say is:
*Holy shit.*
how old are you?
35 :D
+InnerPartisian You're not old, I'm 32 and I don't wanna feel older then I am now.
2 of the 3 members of dg are older than you
There really isn't any other group out there like this one
I close my eyes and zerk it
To pray is to accept defeat, such a great line
Listening to H E R O I N and Smoking D E A T H G R I P S
+k den No
I'm not sure you can smoke heroin or bands
+Broseidon Fuck! İ wish i saw Death Grips before i quit smoking heroin! God DAMN İT!!
I inject marijuanas
I boof ketamine in a storage closet listening to D E A T H G R I P S
Something about the line “I am the beast I worship” hits me hard
this is one of a few experimental songs i've liked straight after listening back in 2014, yet still here, good shit
I am legitimately scared of this song. Every time I hear this song I feel like somewhere out there, there is this wierd, horrifying presence. The sampling gets the point of the song immediately out of the way, which adds on to the creep factor, because of the implications of the sample, and the true meaning being truly sinister and evil. And out of nowhere, this absolutely monstrously sized wall of noise jumps out and jumpscares you. It feels like this absolutely huge, horrifying creature emerging from the earth, and it’s intentions for what it does when it has fully emerged are malicious. The lyrics are also incredibly scary, sounding like wierd, demonic scribbling, being read off of a an ancient scroll. It keeps going and going, and it’s on of the scariest songs I’ve heard in awhile.
Here is my prospective. You are the one that is dangerous and powerful
this is a wendy's
That is the point.
@@confusedaxolotl7833 i get that. Guess that means it succeeds.

The implementation of the Charles Manson soundbite in the intro is GENIUS.
They stole that idea from the Jane's Addiction song "Ted Just Admit It", which is off of the same album that the sample in Beware is from ("Up the Beach")
@@The16thninja except it's completely different
@@DaUnrealGamer lol it's the exact same idea
@@The16thninja yeah nope
@@DaUnrealGamer are you stupid?
I wonder if “beggar on a bitches leash” was the inspiration for The Money Store’s album art
@Ross Orange yeah that sounds like Death Grips
This is truly a beautifully written oath. I am happy to run into his music
I have a tendency to listen to this song whenever I'm doing something life-changing, which -if you're in your early 20's- tends to happen a lot.
I listen to this song when my life is falling apart, which also tends to happen a lot
Mid 20's
I'm reading this being 23 years old and just having taken a big change in my life a few hours ago and riding this song on repeat. You speak the truth Mr Pivot.
Gets better with every listen, goddamn
saw an edit of this that replaced the manson monologue with a recent senile joe biden speech and it was hysterical
Link?

I remember one where instead of mason it was that one crazy lady that monologued about the deepstate
listening to this in the morning while making yourself green tea with ginger is truely a new form of meditation
Jane's Addiction - Up The Beach
the bassline
Yeah, and maybe like a little snippet of guitar in there too. Song kicks ass though.
Can't believe it's been 10 years since this came out, and to this day i feel blessed to have found this band.
8 years since iv heard this song and its still my favorite single song of all time. The feelings this song provokes, probably the most powerful song iv ever heard.
I wonder if Stefan, Zach, and Andy knew what they were doing when they made this album. This is music that'll be remembered for centuries.
All of your work is magnificent. Work at your own pace and stay true to who you are guys. Transcend evermore!

Interesting.
Happy 10 years of this amazing mixtape
The background music is a sample of "Jane's Addiction - Up the beach" I'm pretty sure. really well done.
And the voice is charlie manson
Yep. 100% caught that on first listen!
