"Terrorist" is a song included on the second album Primitive, released in 2000. In this song, Max Cavalera sings the lines taken from Sepultura (his former band) song "Inner Self", while Slayer vocalist Tom Araya sings the lines taken from his band's song "Criminally Insane" in God Hates Us All style, while taking turns with Max screaming 'confront and destroy'. This song speaks about subversive qualities of rock music and the cathartic experience it can evoke.
Lyrics[]
Spreading terrorism through the music
Rebelling against all this bullshit
Fire is the heat that burns deep inside
Raging and out of control
Spreading terrorism through the music
Rebelling against all this shit
Energy in the purest form
Controlled chaos bring it on
Confront and destroy / confront and destroy
Confront and destroy / confront and destroy
Spreading terrorism through the music
Rebelling against all this bullshit
Urban guerrillas on the front line
Arm in arms bring it on
Rise rise rise
Above this bullshit
Rise rise rise
Above this bullshit
Night will come and I will follow
For my victims no tomorrow
Non conformity in my inner self
Only I guide my inner self
Bring da pain to tha muthafuckin' pit kill
Bring da rage to tha muthafuckin' pit kill
Bring da shit to tha muthafuckin' pit kill
Bring da pain to tha muthafuckin' pit kill
