The Return

I've burned all the bridges that I once had
and I spit in their face as I watched them burn.
You would be shaken by, you would be trembled by the thought of knowing that I never gave a fuck.
This is the time I return. No longer held by the burdens of my past.
Burdens of my past no longer hold me back.
I've ripped the ties out of my humanity and i'll slit any throat to get where I want to be.
Let the bridges burn.
Weakness is the trait of a broken man.
Like a fractured glass nothing will be the same.
It will never be the same.
There are no friends only allies, I trust no one but myself(I will not be betrayed).
This is my time to unleash the fury and rip the heart out of my enemies chest.
When the smoke clears from the battlefield I will be the one left standing, bodies
stacked beneath my feet as I become a god. This is my time. This is my time for I have returned.

Drift Away

Every day i'm one step closer to my fate by i'm not scared of the uncertanity that awaits.
Open your eyes and tell me what you see, a world thats torn apart by pain and suffering.
How many must die before you see the truth? There is no god worth dying or killing for.
Faith is something i've just never had. The questions loomed as the time went on.
Open your eyes and tell me what you see, a world thats torn apart by pain and suffering.
How many must die before you see the truth? There is no god worth dying or killing for.
I'm not afraid of the uncertanity bury me with all of my sins.
Bury me with all my sins and leave me to rest.
Let the fear drift away because our fate cannot be changed.
Let the fear drift away plagued by guilt of past mistakes.
Let our fear drift away and never return.

Modern Age of Slavery
03:53

I have turned my back upon all of mankind. This is a fanasty that is long forgotten.
Deep down inside of your heart you know I speak the truth, i am the voice of disbelief.
Force fed these lies every day since your birth, wake the fuck up and look all around you.
All the misery and suffering, god doesn't give a fuck if you ask me.
The preacher is rich from the collection plate while the corporations slide by with
no taxes paid.
Force fed these lies every day since your birth, wake the fuck up and look all around you.
Watch our kingdom fall and witness its demise and when you look inside there is nothing but emptiness.
Welcome to this modern age of slavery where our hearts are shackled and our minds are bound
to our debt and there's no escaping.
Watch our kingdom fall and witness its demise and when you look inside there is nothing but emptiness.
Emptiness.
Standing on top of the world the rich watch down upon the hell on earth that they've created.
Poverty spreads inside of a shrinking middle class while criminals are appointed to get laws passed.
The game is rigged and the tables are turned against us all and there's no way out.
We are so fucked, their systems out of control and there's no happy ending for us.
The pieces are in place.

Through The Fire
04:27

The walls are collapsing and your lies are coming down and your state of denial
will not save you now.
An overwhelming sense of sadness will lay blame across past history.
The division of man will always be because of our forsaken idols.
Loyal to the death so you'll take any life, defending your god to the grave.
Rip everything across apart the seams until your justice is done.
Vengeance through hyprocrisy we cannot cope with disbelief.
A vision their minds see has ruled us through tyranny.
I will walk through the gates of hell and embrace this punishmnent that i've been dealt.
Through the fire, I walk alone. Through the fire I live with no regrets.
Your faith will be your downfall.
Through the fire I will stand strong, Through the fire I fear nothing in life.
Through the fire vengeance is reborn. Through the fire malice has become us.
What is the price you will pay for a broken man's cause?
Blocking out the conscience, the rage takes its hold.
Stripped of your humanity and compassion.
Our faith claims to unite but we know it truely divides everyone from everyone.
How can the world sleep at night.. The smell of death lingers.
When a balance don't exist? The scales tipped ages ago.
Every empire has toppled from its cause while nations weeped in fear for civilian lives were lost
Our faith claims to unite but we know it truely divides everyone from everyone.

Risen from the ashes and resurrected from the dead, chaos forms itself inside the
bitter part of man.
Desperately seeking vengeance and watching it take ahold to form a voice inside to make us
rise up.
Your doubt will make you fall.
We are the oppressed, stripped of all our flesh but if we reunite we won't die in vain.
Feel the rage as it sets in and use it to destroy the enemy.
Your doubt will make you fall.
With all of our tribulation we stand strong into the night.
We stand strong as we watch you crumble.
Broken and shattered because you're not one.
I'll perservere through self-defeat and fall prey to disbelief.
Seeking unity will bind us together and watching your demise will be our reward.
Your demise will be our reward.
With all of our tribulation we stand strong into the night.
We stand strong as we watch you crumble.
Broken and shattered because you're not one.
If we stay together we can make this world change.
We can make this world change.
We stand strong as we watch you crumble.
Broken and shattered because you're not one.

The Serpent

The end approaches and don't fucking act like you didn't see it coming.
A house of cards that is built upon a foundation of lies.
The walls are closing in and the ceiling crumbles atop us.
A verdict has been reached and you are all fucking guilty.
It is time to collect, your payment now has reached past due.
What the fuck? Why does wearing a suit protect you?
I'd like to spit on your grave all while I tarnish your name(which doesn't mean shit to me)
This is corruption at the lowest of low and the gap between us always seems to grow.
Answer the call to arms, its time to take it back.
Embrace the serpents bite and let the venom sink in.
Watch our sins ignite and become transformed.
Everything has fallen into the right spot, overwhelmed with poverty this is their plot.
Spreading propoganda to leave us in the dark, confusion and acceptance.
This is corruption at the lowest of low and the gap between us always seems to grow.
Answer the call to arms, its time to take it back.
Forcing the tides to change, we are at the tipping point of a new revolution.
Embrace the serpents bite and let the venom sink in.
Watch our sins ignite and become transformed.
