[Verse 1: Everlast] Straight out the casket, rising up Open up your eyes, can't you see me? What the fuck is this? Madness, pick up my bones Erase my name from off the tombstones Alive and kicking, breathing the air Call out my name, punk, and I'll be there No question, my suggestions of the action Caught smack dab in the middle of the blasting Messing with me, you're messing with the best Blaow, you're taking two shots to your chest
[Hook: Everlast] Cause I'm back from the dead Everlast coming back from the dead (Back from the dead!) You know I'm back from the dead And I'll put a freaking hole in your head! Back from the dead Back from the dead
[Verse 2: Everlast] You can't disrespect it, I'm the resurrected Back from the dead just to mess with your head I'll stress what I said, but I won't repeat it If you've got a cold starve it, if you've got a fever feed it And if you can't beat it, then what a blow You might be positive and not even know I rock the hardcore from the floor to the ceiling I give Sexual Healing, I'll get your girl squealing like a pig My grave's something you can never dig I'll rock a mausoleum, backyard or colosseum
[Hook: Everlast] Cause I'm back from the dead Everlast coming back from the dead (Back from the dead!) You know I'm back from the dead House of Pain's in effect, nuff said!
[Hook: Everlast] Cause I'm, back from the dead Everlast's comin back from the dead (Back from the dead!) You know I'm back from the dead And I'll put a freaking hole in your head Back from the dead Back from the dead
[Hook: Everlast] Cause I'm back from the dead Everlast coming back from the dead (Back from the dead!) You know I'm back from the dead House of Pain's in effect, nuff said Back from the dead.. {*repeat to fade*}

This song samples Timex Social Club’s “Rumors” as well as Everlast’s own “Syndication” from his pre-House Of Pain solo album on Warner Bros., Forever Everlasting. In the pre-Internet days, rumors had gone around that Everlast had overdosed and died before the release of House Of Pain’s second album. So the record kicks right off with this song, letting the world know he’s still alive and (shit)kicking.
