Survival of the richest
We are nearing extinction
Crippled with wages
Not making a living
Stranglehold, stranglehold
No way to live
Cycle of extinction begins again
Stranglehold, stranglehold
No way to to live
The cycle of extinction...
I'm so sick of the lying
It feels like nobody's driving
This onslaught of burden
We won't suffer in silence
Is this how we die?
Can we say that we've tried?
Stranglehold, stranglehold
No way to live
Cycle of extinction begins again
Stranglehold, stranglehold
No way to to live
The cycle of extinction...

Asylum seeker
Longing for home
Only to find
You're not welcome here
Running for weeks
Surviving the cold
The first steps of freedom
Now slowed to a crawl
Crawl, crawl, crawl...
Herding the children
In cages like cattle
This modern day slavery
A never-ending battle
Fucked from the start
Families torn apart
Choke on your guilt
As they suffer
Crawl, crawl, crawl...
Raised just to die
They're being led to the slaughter
Justice has failed them
None will see home

Burning Wheel

Chained to the wheel
This hell has no end
Aggression survives
Deep within
Feeling detached
But forced to watch
Through brink of collapse
The mind shuts off
Bought all the lies
Once painted gold, now carved in shit
Bottled inside
Taking its toll, I'm losing my grip
Ride the burning wheel
No control, no remorse
Hell at my heels
Coming unhinged
Wheel starts to spin
Trained to react, a violent end
Dreading the outcome
Lost in my ways
Too late to change
Sanity's frayed

Contagion

Riders of rapture
Unleash the disease
Force feed the outbreak
Thin out the herd
Push forth extinction
History repeats
We've faltered for so long
We're brought to our knees
Ten years of pain
Ten years of misery
TEN YEARS OF DEATH
They'll build a bridge to the new way over our mass grave
We've poisoned the planet
Now we're shedding the skin
A rise and fall
The creeping descent to the end..
A rise and fall
The creeping descent to the end...

Hell Rains Down
02:46

Hellfire swallows the city whole
Leaves only dust, death has been dealt
High off the bloodshed, the tyrant pursuits
"Must conquer all," corruption ensues
When it comes to slaughter, spare no expense
Mass genocide is their line of business
Hell rains down
Calling in death from above
Hell rains down
Spilling the innocent blood
Cause of death
Wrong place at the wrong time
When man plays god, how many people must die?
Death toll is climbing, the war rages on
Tyrant's reign can not be stopped
Bleeding out and left for dead
Survivors will be shot again, and again... and again
Hell rains down
Calling in death from above
Hell rains down
Spilling the innocent blood
Cause of death
Wrong place at the wrong time
When man plays god, how many people must die?
Killing for peace, but peace never lasts
A web of lies I just can't get past
Suffer no fools, and put them to death
Still peddling shit in their final breaths

Savage Soul

I'm falling down
Collapsing on myself
Tried to get back up
My mental state is in constant stress
Held by a thread
Savage soul - beyond repair
Savage soul
Trapped
Clawing, shackled
Shattered
We won't rebuild
It's getting worse
Lives on the line
Sick of the grind
Forced in repetition
In this cage I'll waste; A life on display
Savage soul - beyond repair
Savage soul
Trapped
Clawing, shackled
Shattered
We won't rebuild
