Blistered Earth

Escalating tensions leading us to darkened times
I question what can happen
Profligate, our leaders push us in a foul direction
Just to line their pockets
Egos rise while they engage in violent rhetoric
Their threats of destruction
Expectations of a blistered earth they ignore
They have us marching towards
War
In due time death shall fall like rain
In due time we'll pass our point of no return
In due time the end will come, and all will be pain
In due time we shall watch our world burn
Burn
Grandiose, bragging of a finger on the button
pompous in their actions
Push aside the consequences of their decisions
Modus operandi
Attributing the blame to political opponents
Red faced accusals
Blackening the end and bringing forth ruin
They have us marching towards
War
Termination, expectation, degradation, nothing will thrive
Population, expiration, cancellation, millions of lives

Rise, Oppose, Destroy
04:48
|

|
Under cover of law, enforced with violence
Villainy protected by the blue wall of silence
Use of excessive force breeding dubiety
Filling the public with constant anxiety
Rise, oppose, destroy
Fabricated suspicion, arrested sans evidence
Innocent people torn down, broken when they defend
Constant brutality fueled by the war on drugs
and racial profiling, enforced with shotgun slugs
Rise, oppose, destroy
Gunshots and flashing lights
Arrests end violently
A nation held in fear by
Police brutality
Serve and protect
That promise broken
Harm and neglect
Their crimes unspoken
Perpetual and never ending
Corrupt and seeped into their core
These blood-stained shards
Of public trust
Truth is a prisoner of war

Endless Warfare
03:47
|
|||
|
Piles of corpses
Democracy
Rivers of blood
Foreign policy
Support the moderate rebels while they still serve our ends
Historic, we have always followed this foul policy
Supply them with the weapons and the training they require
Because supporting extremists has never ended poorly
Promises of peace
Twisted into war
Fire from the skies
Endless warfare
Bodies piled high
Fuel for the machine
’Til the end of time
Endless warfare
Oil fields near
Influences
A sudden change
In policy
Remove our protection from allies for dozens of years
Discovered cables show the truth of our ultimate goals
Ignoring outcomes that resulted in the death of many
Decisions based on fiscal goals and not humanity
Exercising influence across the middle east
Always ending in war while we preach about peace
Nations burning to the ground, but opium defend
And so we keep perpetuating war without end

Damnation
04:34
|

|
They drink damnation from a blackened chalice
Their crimes warrant no redemption
Suffer as one for their malice
Their can be no exception
They drink damnation as it overflows
Marching forwards to perditions throes
Earthly pleasures now replaced with pain
Begin their eternal suffering
The people screaming, the Earth is dying
They drink damnation as their cities burn to the ground
Bullets of filth from guns of ruin
A path to hell paved with destruction

Mord Macht Frei

Murder! Annihilate, rid the world
Vengeance! Fight hate with hate
Torture! Prolong their pain; bleed them dry
Fascists! Your time has come
Slaughter! Eviscerate, end their lives
Evil! Poisonous views
Slaughter! Die by the sword; retribution
Fascists! Your time has come
Purge from our nation this vile filth
Supreme to none, just nazi scum
Violent! Our resistance, no quarter
Broken! They shall become
Strangle! Their grip on society
Fascists! Your time has come

Wasteland Butcher
04:24
|

|
Wiping the sweat with my fingers from my eyes
Radioactive beasts circling me
Position crosshairs on a tooth-filled maw
Exploding bodies spray the desert with gore
Wasteland butcher, tear your apart
Wasteland butcher, rip you apart
Unleash the nuclear assault from my arsenal
Bring the humans to their knees
Mutated mongrels have descended upon you
Their teeth are gnashing as you bleed
Traversing endless miles of dry desert
Looking for more humans to slay
Keeping their bloodied scalps with me as trophies
Murder them all with my knife blade
Blood splatters forth
From shattered heads
Crushed in my hands
Torn from their lifeless bodies
We dominate
The human race
We are the future
There is no escape from the
Wasteland butcher
Tear you apart
