Story behind the song
I play on this game (MUX, if you know what that is) called X-Men: Tomorrow People. And I was chillin' wit' some friends in there talkin' about The X (which I'm sure you've heard by now) and got to thinkin' about doin' a remix-type track for XTP. So... this is what came of that conversation. Be afraid. Very afraid.
Lyrics
Xavier: It's was a long time ago. Mankind has evolved since then.
Magneto: Yes. Into us.

I.
Trust me
I don't think these humans want it us
That's why they gotta' hire our kind to come and get us
We fightin' amongst ourselves like we brothers and sisters
They dyin' to go to hell the way they huntin' to kill us
We superior to sapiens that's prolly why they fear us
Get blood curlin' screams, when they find out they been near us
We ain't even ask for these gifts that we've been blessed with
Or maybe it's a curse since birth, but we accept it
Most of us got shunned by parents even neglected
Just cuz we could do stuff, they never expected
Like fly through the sky and pass for a real boy
Read each other's minds or turn to steel alloy
A wave of the hand and then manipulate the water
Start ragin' like I'm Cajun and manipulate ya' daughter
It's J-Class, I'm the king of these mutie hits
Think fast, cuz this here is the remix...

II.
People fear, what they don't understand
And hate what they can't conquer, that's the spirit of man
Gettin' pissed, cuz we want a piece of they land
Well I'ma' tell you right now, I ain't givin' a damn
I was born here, means I'ma' die and grow old here
Coldhearted, that's cuz Bobby's makin' it snow here
We try to stay calm but the hatin' is so fierce
Philosophy for life is it to live it with no fear
We come through...
Like a calm before the Storm
And surprise you...
Like a bomb to show it's on
Out survive you...
In a war, my side'll won
And if I was you?
I'd put my pride aside and run
Cuz it won't take much for me to crush to ya' see?
And leave you in a heap of nothingness on the street
We could be upfront about it. We choose to be discreet.
Maybe you don't understand. We choose to let you breathe.

III.
It's a war on the horizon, tension is risin'
Every mutant for himself if you ain't choosin' a side man
It's gon' be a lotta' blood and people gon' be dyin'
All of this because these humans ain't realizin'
That all they really need to do is open they mind an'
We can proceed to do, what Charles X designed an'
End this constant struggle between the two races
Why is there even trouble? Cuz we all got two faces
And even then, there's some of us that just won't quit it
They keep actin' like, they want a war... so let's give it
Wanna' enslave they own kind, sane in they own mind
And make life a living hell for those nonaligned
Now we can do this the hard or the easy way
You don't know how bad it hurts my heart to see us this way
We all chose our life paths in this
And to go back on it now would be blasphemous...
