Born Empty 04:15
Born empty with nothing to lose Given the illusion of the freedom to choose Taught to conform, taught how to behave Then left to rot, threadbare and afraid No helping hands and no loving embrace A bleak existence enmired in shame On the horizon we see our fate Nothingness, futility Forced onward, everything to lose Burdened with confusion, all our progress a ruse We climbed the mountain, climbed out of our graves We rose from ashes and we are not afraid No fucking masters, no gods, and no kings Won’t bow my head, I won’t kiss any rings Your time is ending, we know your names Armageddon We sharpen our blades No masters, no gods, no kings No helping hands and no loving embrace A bleak existence enmired in shame On the horizon our legion assembles The ruling classes tremble No fucking masters, no gods, and no kings Won’t bow my head, I won’t kiss any rings Your kingdom is rotten, putrid, and depraved On our blades we carve your names

Melt the crowns of the kings Make the blades for the guillotines Collective power, collective eyes Hand in hand we burn the empire of lies Boots on our necks for too long We’re done with being your pawns Unified power, unified aims Now we have nothing to lose but our chains All we’ve ever know is degradation Everywhere I look I see mutilation You eat our young, you drink our blood We’ll break the dams and bring on the flood Take the swords from their sheaths Crush your skulls under the stampede We’ll never falter, we’ll never hide No hesitation - regicide Build the gallows up high Sun is shining in the sky Clock is ticking, don’t close your eyes The blade drops and it’s time to die All we’ve ever know is degradation Everywhere I look I see mutilation You eat our young, you drink our blood We’ll break the dams and bring on the flood We’ll break the dams and bring on the flood No divine rights No noble blood lines No divine rights Hang the masters high Build the gallows up high Sun is shining in the sky Clock is ticking, don’t close your eyes The blade drops and it’s time to die The blade drops now it’s time to fucking die

Unbuild 04:22
Trapped and lost, disoriented Our suffering is never-ending Stuck on board a burning hull We can’t abandon ship Our only hope is Kill the captain where everyone can see Expropriation from sea to sea Loot the looters It’s time to seize Our future Cursed Until we recognize: All solids dissipate, all that is holy is profaned We, degraded, are forced to face a labyrinth crafted by The Ancient A machine forged in their own image grips and drags and tears asunder Our grief, our heartache, our yearning, our serpentine chains pull us under Don’t you know the end is near? Don’t stop now there’s no time for fear Can’t you see? The end is here All you’ve done is sow wreckage on abounding fields Everyone must look inward - we are the dispossessed All we know must be erased as we unbuild ourselves Everything disintegrates into the abyss The Earth begs you to wither away All desire must be abandoned Return to the wild eyes open wide Or become the last generation

Crimson 01:25
5.
Open the gates, the masses writhe A specter is haunting, biding its time The heartbeat of a people destined to rise Spirit of resistance coming to life From the womb to the grave Relentlessly showered with hate A wedge driven ‘tween mother and son They laugh as our houses burn The sun is setting, hear the thunder clap No quarter - hold nothing back Lift your voices to the enemy’s call Until the last blade falls In the forest the whispers thrive Undulation of the hivemind The consciousness of a people returning through time Spirit of the giants alive in our eyes From the fields where we stood Loyalty forged without blood Arms locked - this trust we’ve earned We laugh as your castles burn Feel the lightning crack in the sky There’s power in your eyes The sun sets, hear the thunder clap No quarter - hold nothing back Lift your voices to the enemy’s call Until the last blade falls Draw your blades, tighten your hold Breach the walls, slit every throat Nock your arrows, draw back your bows Our minds united, we are not alone Lift your voices so our enemy knows We carry our vengeance where’er the wind blows
