Founded in 1992 by former Vio-lence guitarist Robert Flynn and Adam Duce. The first song on their debut album, "Davidian", features the lyrics "Let freedom ring / with a shotgun blast". Subsequently the video was banned from MTV due to its release date being very soon after the Waco Siege which it was apparently describing. Robb Flynn has since said that the song "Davidian" was not written about the Waco Siege but added that line to get people thinking. After their debut album Burn My Eyes (1994) Chris Kontos left to work with Testament and a stand in drummer was used for Machine Head's Donington slot in 1995.

I’m Your God Now Lyrics

Machine Head

So pain told you to take her
Well I learned to accept that feeling
cause I found how to numb it
If only for just a short while
Id get so high, Id forget my own name
I scarred my fist, I scarred my brain
I think that Im going insane
I think that Im going insane
So drink up, so shoot in
Why must this feeling end
I crawled in my narcotic shell
Was crucified in my own hell
A gutters where I found myself
Among the waste I chose to dwell
I chose to dwell
So now Im in your system
And Im what helps you numb your pain
With time you will confide in me
So lonely my friend, Ive made you lose control
Youll use me more and more with time
Our friendship grows with each mainline
So glad that you could be so blind
So glad that you could be so blind
So drink up, so shoot in
cause Ill make this feeling end
I built you this narcotic shell
I crucifies you in your hell
Your life not yours, youre just my slave
I am your messiah of pain
And time has come to
Time has come to, time has come to
There is no time to pray
cause Im your God now
