A long time ago I never knew myself. Then the memory
Of shame birthed its gift.
No more. The small one, the weak one, the frightened one.
Running from beatings, deflating. I'm becoming more
Than a man. More than you ever were. Driven and burning
To rise beyond Jesus.
I'm born again with snakes eyes
Becoming Godsize
I found my life was slipping through my hands. Perhaps
Through death my life won't be so bad.
I can see you, can fuck you, inside of you. Staring through
Your eyes. Belittle your friends to serve me, to suck me,
To realize my saving grasp. I of suicide. I the unlord.
I'm born again with snakes eyes
Becoming Godsize
Of shame birthed its gift.
No more. The small one, the weak one, the frightened one.
Running from beatings, deflating. I'm becoming more
Than a man. More than you ever were. Driven and burning
To rise beyond Jesus.
I'm born again with snakes eyes
Becoming Godsize
I found my life was slipping through my hands. Perhaps
Through death my life won't be so bad.
I can see you, can fuck you, inside of you. Staring through
Your eyes. Belittle your friends to serve me, to suck me,
To realize my saving grasp. I of suicide. I the unlord.
I'm born again with snakes eyes
Becoming Godsize

I think this is about his own struggle with how he saw himself, maybe he was really shy, and saw himself as a weak little pussy early on and one day he snapped and said fuck it, and started becoming the bad ass anselmo that he became, thats the meaning i get from it..... "no more the small one the weak one the frightened one".. its only when you lose everything that youre free to do anything, people on the verge of suicide can achieve so much if they only put their minds to it, i think thats the whole point of the album name "far beyond driven".... thats my say, go pantera!!
