Lyrics
Find another songThe world in which we live has been plagued
By the essence of the beast
Murdering had become a daily ritual
The able-bodied minds of the world
Try to solve the problems
With their pathetic solutions
As long as the underworld
Has the upperhand, nothing will be solved
I believe that which has been done to you
Should be done to others
Kill the man who invades your world
Violent acts of nature
Have uplifted the roots of the earth
Disasters which have not been seen for decades
Have surfaced to a place which one was free of woe
It's now filled with death and killing
There is no cure
We will soon be punished
For what we have done
I await the moment
I am prepared
There will come a time in life to take control
To protect thyself and my own
I will kill if need be
Society feeds on each other as prey
I will not become a victim
Rather a predator if needed
Human life means little, little to me
If you lash at me you have chosen your fate
Life as you know will cease to exist
