Demo found in the "I Am A God" Protool session, owned by Waterfalls. Has a different mix and vocal effects. Has some alternate lines, including, "'bout that good white pussy I'm trapped in", instead of, "fuck every question you asking", and "think I'm possessed", rather than, "they say I'm possessed". Final lyric difference is, "you know I'm the son of a black panther", instead of, "you niggas ain't breathing you gasping".
