Nothing but a blemish in the sky A veil meant to obscure the terror Committed by its own I see no splendor in the glimmer of your stars Nor the stripes serving as a shroud It's despicable Our nation's history - a star spangled atrocity Freedom A concept so egregious in a land of children locked in cages Widespread Celebration all while families are being separated Our past A tattered legacy revered to the highest esteem Does the future hold the same? I'm not a patriot I never will be There is no valor in the illusion of liberty I'm not a patriot I never will be

Cadaver Wave 03:26
Cadaver wave Cadaver wave Seismic menace wreaks demise Bodies graze the heavens then submerge the earth as they strike The stench extends for miles Horrors of its odor shock the senses before its sight Cadaver Wave Remnants of The past collect Putrid sludge of befouled decrepit flesh Festering horrid expanse Starts to rise Horizons collapse Beneath its weight Cadaver wave Seismic menace wreaks demise Bodies graze the heavens then submerge the earth as they strike The stench extends for miles Horrors of its odor shock the senses before its sight At the wave's peak the sun's light is banished to the void No proper grave Become one with the cadaver wave A swell of fetid corpses bathes my skin in rot

Hourglass 02:33
Thoughts of crime Running through my mind My conscience Devolving I'm running out of time The breaking point has long since passed I can't escape the hourglass Get me out I've had enough Trapped within a maze without an end Send me to hell I yearn for the descent There has to be more to this life than inconsequential repetition Get me out I've had enough Suspended in the air Swinging by my neck Ravens in the sky Mock my last breath

Foreign invasion to defend the nation Foreign invasion to satisfy god Invoking christ to defend devastation Democracy through kids dying abroad Enlisted then shipped to war They weren't being honest When they told you What you'd be fighting for Bombs falling from drones Land on hospitals and schools Death manufactured for profit Humans used as tools Death manufactured for profit Humans used as tools Bloodshed has been commodified Justified by divine rule The artillery persists It draws a halo of blood around every innocent's lifeless head The call was sent from above It's not a sin to atone Our convenience is held in the arms of burning children
5.
Look what we've become A culture bent on the demise of those who we share the streets Driven deranged by a profit motive Subduing the misguided and the weak Look what we've become Unknowing to the power in our numbers Along we walk among the herd We've got our heads in the clouds and in the sand Greeting reality with our faces in our hands Look what we've become Apathetic Trampled til we comply We have to unite through our pain The time for decency has passed Peace is no longer an option Necessitated to react Peace is no longer an option Necessitated to react

Tomb Evasion 02:39
Prosperity is the only option Failure promises a wretched end Few will stand in the face of misery I ascend drenched in the blood of my foes Born to conquer Forced to suffer Victory does not come without a price For as many wounds as I've inflicted I still can't put into words the pain that I've endured Conflict is perpetual Determined to overcome No one shall impede my progress My opposition lies severed limb from limb I won't surrender til the coffin is nailed shut
