WHEN I SAY GO is a classic 80s-style thrasher and caseJackal’s first dive into heavy metal territory. It gives both a volatile call to riot and a warning about those with power and a will to abuse it. All the guitars, bass, drums, and vocals were recorded and mixed by a single blue-haired furry in a rag-tag studio in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
lyrics
Your clock is ticking loud
The crowd is active now
Your time is running out
Running out
Face to face with hostile fumes
Noxious pleas of the abused
Try to run, it’s no use
The calm before the storm is quiet
The moment when the mob turns violent
I drown you out when I say so
Tear down the walls when I say go
I’ll holler lies, provide the show
They’ll fall in line when I say go
Don’t spite your eyes
The light I bear controls
Just a simulacrum
Where’d you get that from?
Couldn’t be my acts, my mask
What you lack
You deconstruct yourselves
You self-destruct your shell
blame you for my every hell
Not myself
The calm before the storm is quiet
The moment when the mob turns violent
I drown you out when I say so
Tear down the walls when I say go
I’ll holler lies, to save the show
They’ll fall in line when I say go
Refining light
Claim and shape your soul
Can’t drown me out when I say so
Tear down the walls when I say go
All hollow lies, like every show
You fall in line when I say go
Run for your lives
I’m already in control
And I control
When I say go
When I say go
