Backstab
04:32
|
|||
Going home late at night,
Empty streets, no lights,
Rats grin like wolves
Watching you from their holes.
Each of them alone is nothing,
But in a pack, it's a real power -
Staying side to side
Waiting for the leader's sign.
Goosebumps run all over your skin.
THIS IS REALITY
NOT A DREAM
Your worst nightmare comes true,
Fear is piercing you.
The steps sound closer,
Your heart beats faster,
You feel inevitable disaster
Becoming a reality.
There is a scent of trouble,
You see a flash of a knife
They know you in advance
You have no chance
Goosebumps run all over your skin.
THIS IS REALITY
NOT A DREAM
Your worst nightmare comes true,
Fear is piercing you.
‘Someone else, but not me’
This is what everyone thinks.
Back stabbed laying in blood,
Did you expect this result?

Mental Slavery
02:49
|
|||
I ponder every day
Can our life go another way?
Could I have done differently in the past?
I come to a conclusion that with these thoughts,
With that consciousness of another choice, I simply would not exist,
There is no other way, in my mind at least.
It is precisely our attitudes, beliefs and principles
that guide us in a certain direction.
And how we don’t want to change it.
Show me your real self
That you put on the far shelf,
Take off your shackles,
Escape the mental slavery.
We are only running around in a circle defined by our consciousness.
We are kind of blind and just do not see any other alternatives.
We see only black and white without any shades,
Never try the other side; never see the edge’s fades.
At some point you decided, or someone decided it for you,
that this is your way, but this is not for you.
Only by changing internally, one can change the external life.
I’m not saying that it will be easy,
For sure it will be a fight.
Fight and struggle with yourself and people around.
Fight with this until the walls are leveled with the ground.

Our Legacy
04:30
|
|||
Divided and torn to pieces,
Shared but not with us,
Cleansing of clever minds,
A feast in the time of plague.
No work, no money -
Only slavery.
Empire built on blood.
We live in poverty.
Crawling on one's knees
Trying to survive
Resisting extinction
This is our life
Ruins and poverty - our legacy
Revolution and takeover.
Power to the people -
They always promise
But never fulfil.
All that you have
They will take away,
It’s never enough for them -
Squalor is your fate
All that we are proud of,
Achievements from the past -
They’ve created nothing
But can destroy it fast

Soul Devastation
03:24
|
|||
Taken upon themselves
All the knowledge of mankind
For all history of existence
Left us behind
With the lost sense of being
We are standing on the edge
No more light in the eyes
Feel myself so weak
I have no more tears
Have no reasons to live
With the lost sense of being
We are standing on the edge
Soul devastation
No salvation
It seems that i've reached the dead end
And i'm lost in a labyrinth
I feel so down
The lowest of the low
With the lost sense of being
We are standing on the edge

Wild Warriors
03:04
|
|||
We were born to be free
But oppressed since childhood
By imposed rules - how to live.
Whole life spent in resistance
To the society’s pressure.
They are scared of us,
We look different and that brings me pleasure.
Let's left 'em in the past
Dressed in leather and heavy boots,
Wind blowing in our long hair,
Ignoring the rules that are for fools,
We follow the instincts of primitive roots.
You can’t control us,
We are not soldiers -
We are wild warriors.
Shave your head
And march in the ranks
Swear your oath - it’s not for us.
Dressed in leather and heavy boots,
Wind blowing in our long hair,
Ignoring the rules that are for fools,
We follow the instincts of primitive roots.
Give your orders to the others,
We do not obey anyone.
I will follow only my brother -
We are bonded by blood.
BONDED BY BLOOD!

Chemical Paradise
03:55
|

Falling into a chemical paradise
You see illusions with your own eyes.
Weak brain under pressure
Searching for artificial pleasure.
Trying different ways:
Smoking, swallowing, sniffing,
Getting intravenously -
Excited about tripping.
Chemicals running into your blood
Reaching your weak brain,
Pulsation is increasing in your heart,
You surrender to your bane.
Watching a beautiful sunset
Under upside-down mountains,
Stars are blinking purple and red,
You feel streams from heavenly fountains.
You see the moving walls,
Scared to be constrained,
Then everything is crushed by wrecking balls -
You become frustrated
You are going on,
Increasing the dose,
The heat growing in your body,
Blood running from the nose.
Chemicals running into your blood,
Exploded your weak brain,
Pulsation is increasing in your heart,
You feel fear and pain.
