Six Poisonous Arrows

Scriptures triumph when remain unburnt
Hatred trickles down to spread the bane
Intoxicates to create willful cogs
Blind to the chains linking us
You're alienated to the air
Which we all respire
I'll bleed out the venomous blood
You declared royal
You let yourself become
A monument of terror
Armed yourself against the wretched
With your fucking tiki torched tongues
With five hundred years of lies
About whole continents drenched in blood
You'll be buried six feet under
By this legacy you've honored
You the harbingers of hell always remind us
We shall oppose supremacy in whatever form it shows.

The New Demons
02:05

As the aging demons slowly die
And old masters fade away
I feel the ground trembling
With the rise of the new ones to take their place
The idols recycle, and the shrines renovate
But the fascist tradition remains unchanged
I refuse to be forced
To choose between the redundant gods
And dead men living like cancer in rotting hearts
In the end, all corrupt life
I will stand against the rising tide
To my core I shall become
A vengeful negation
Of their lust for domination
The new demons come
Spinning the wheel of the same machine
As the old ones
And I refuse to bow down
The new demons rise
And my cries are a call for insurgence
Against every last one
Propagating terror and destruction
In the name of their twisted notions of "liberation".

Laying Waste to Empires
03:17

We decay, living predetermined lives
Grinded under the machines plundering the earth
Imprisoned in an illusion of choice
Disempowered by the decrees of the bloodsuckers
Why accept the shepherds
Who serve our decay?
Why abide by the structures
Founded upon mass graves?
Why endure this hell
Branching through vile institutions?
Why not sharpen our blades
To cut down all the strings attached?
We'll bathe in the blood of the rulers
To be cleansed of these shackles
We'll choke the masters with the strings
To walk free
Caged, what act is more rational than resistance?
It injects meaning in existence
As it's a pathway to freedom
And as it's in itself freedom
History is made by you and me
By our insistence on being free
History is made by you and me
By our inacceptance of this misery
We're the dynamism that fuels this dialectic of liberation
We demand the horizons that yearn to be free of subjugation
We demand autonomy
To be the composers of our own destiny.

Deceitful
02:45
|

|
All this time, you don't mean it
Hollow words, you don't feel it
In this war, you're the enemy
You'll fall too, no more sympathy
Communal good, you don't want it
Isolation, you enforce it
Apathy, put into practice
You'll fall too, no more sympathy
Deceitful
I see your teeth
All painted red
A crown cast in the same mold
You're no friend of mine
Bloodlust, hide behind crooked smiles
The smiling face of the coin is the mask of the empire
But I see right through you, your pretty tales
Judas kiss comes with shallow slogans
A lifetime of deceit breeding a lifetime of decay
Presenting charming facades, heartless inside
Profitable moves, the rules of power play
You're still the one who feeds the beast
I don't care who's the lesser,
Evil is still evil.
