Lyrics for High Voltage as interpreted by Nuklear

High Voltage Lyrics
Just do something to tell you who I am, you know?

It’s high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It’s high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It’s high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It’s high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

I’ve been taking into crates ever since I was living in space
Before the rat race, before monkeys had human traits
Mastered numerology and big bang theology
Preformed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic so I could start blessing it
And chin checkin' kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist mic cords to double helixes and show them what I’m made of
I buckle knees like leg braces
Cast the spell of instrumental-ness and all of the emcees that hate us
So try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinity let icons be bygones
I fire bomb, ghostly notes haunt this
I’ve tried threats but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit with or without an accomplish
(Mixed media!)
The stamp of approval is on this

It’s high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It’s high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

Akira, put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones
Never satisfy my rhyme jones
Spraying bright day over what you might say
Blood type craillon
Technicolor type A
On highways with road rage I’m patient to win
The cage and the tin to bounce all around
In surround sound devouring the scene
Subliminal gangrene paintings
Overall the same things sing songs karaoke copy madness
Break bones verbally with sticks and stone tactics
Fourth dimension, combat convention
Write rhymes at ease while the tracks stand at attention (Attention)
Meant to put you away with the pencil
Pistol, official, 16 line rhyme missile
While you risk it all, I pick out of your flaws
Spin, blah blah blah blah
You can say you saw

It's high voltage, you can’t shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
It's high voltage, you can't shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

this song kicks ass! i think they should make a whole album in this style combined with the remix style. linkin park is one of my all time favorite groups cause i think all of their song are true somehow someway.

This is a blatant rip off of something very bad from the 80's. Not impressed.

This song is similar to the song "Step Up". He's tired of fake hip hop bullshit that gets played on the radiowaves nowadays.

Linkin Park's Underground stuff = rap/rock in it's prime. They were able to fuse underground hip-hop with rock elements perfectly. That's why Mike Shinoda and LP are the shit. You only wish LP would keep making songs like this, though....

I don't really like the rap version of this song. I saw on HBO they played this song on Reverb and it was more like a mysterious hard rock sound. I liked the Reverb version more, it was badass.

my opinion the EP...the ORIGINAL EP..when they were actually named Hybrid Theory...before changing the band name to Linkin Park...was the best album by them EVER to date...and have been an LP fan since 97...before any of you ever heard of them i garuntee...

Really cool song, I like it even more than the remix.


Uberchicken wtf? Real fans do want their bands to be popular. Popular as in appreciated and successful. It isn't good when bands become sellouts and all kinds of posers pretend to like them just because they're popular, but any "true" fan would want to be heard.

Also, forgot to post this, but the lyrics omitted the ending part... it goes something like "Akira... Mr. Hahn... and... Hybrid Theory"
