Only One Lyrics

Pain - made to order

I'm not the second coming, I'm the first wave
Better get an army, cuz the fire left me unscathed
You betcha bottom dollar I'm the top of the shit pile
So stick around cuz I'll get to you in just a few
Step off the achtung, get back or get stung
Idiotic sense of yourself, are you that dumb?
Entire legion of me, totalitarian
The one and only muthafucka, top of the world man

Cuz I can't stand it, planned it, gonna crash land it
In other words, consider me branded
Another version of me, another version of you
Both barrels - what you gonna do?

All I hear is human noise
You made your own fuckin' choice
I belong to only me
Silence for my revelry

I can over die over time
Filthy hands, stay away from mine
Every reason is a right to hate
Painful clutch - death is fine, gimme mine

Only one of us walks away

Somebody explain this
You don't care cuz you don't exist
What the fuck is this another joke?
Reckoning!

The meaning to Only One is all too obvious... Corey is pissed off that some asshole's been talking some serious shit about him. Not only is he pissed, but he is going to rectify the situation by finding the fucker and breaking his fucking face.

Man, this song is so fucking cool. maddox86 is right, it's a fight anthem, and Corey is talking about how when you are in a fight, you go into a different mode "Another version of me, another version of you" is like they have gone into kill mode.

Basically, you are different when you go into battle. Killing mode

Cover art for Only One lyrics by Slipknot

This song is from Mate, Feed, Kill, Repeat, but Slipknot rewrote the lyrics from the original song so it wouldnt be about an RPG anymore.

The "only one of us walks away" part is unchanged though

Painful Clutch! DEATH IS FINE, GIMME MINE!

Some mouth router routed some rage inducing signals in his direction and now he's carving his path of vengence and destruction. Basically he's saying there aint no stoppin' this wave of fire, cuz' it's on...he's on...his rival's on...corey's gonna introduce his enemy to their apocalypse.

Or a one man militia up against a political powerhouse.

ONLY ONE OF US WALKS AWAY!!!!! ONLY ONE OF US WALKS AWAY!!!!!!!!!!
