jpd Hell ya, the lyric writing is really effective, and the sound is tight -- it gets my head thinking and banging. Favorite track: Burning Light.

Lamentation 01:45
2.
I long to take my life, but I can’t, I must survive I must grow stronger, I must set fire, I must ignite To destroy that which destroys me I’d give anything, I’d become incendiary All my life I’ve internalized The poison of your whispered lies If only to elevate yourself You’d gladly sacrifice everyone else Paradises lost Paradises never born I would pay any cost To see your paradise burn Your heaven is my hell My soul encased in this insufficient shell My life is naught but labor With vampiric thirst you savor This prison This panopticon Will be the ash I walk upon Rise like lions after slumber In unvanquishable number Shake the earth like deafening thunder Our daggers drawn, their necks brought under Rise like lions
3.
Water is life, oil is death A place named with the language of colonized kin Poisoned soil, uninhabitable land A people dispossessed yet again The peoples whose suffering knows no end And in the distance I see a silhouette Of the new feudal lords The oil barons and energy gods The Tower of Babel, the panopticon Our blood, spilled in the clay Our flesh, poisoned by the world they’ve made Our mother, with tar flowing through her veins Each of us a tree in a forest razed But we will do what we must And the white man’s “burden” of unending domination Will fucking end with us Water is life, Oil is death Under our blade The black snake Breathes its last breath
4.
No allegiance with the bourgeoisie No more servitude to the so-called elite Weapons forged to make them see What they've done to you and me Capitalist civilization Has led us all to devastation To them we’re so far beneath So trickle down, fill our lungs with shit to breathe Their guns, badges, gavels, and cells All weapons wielded against us Beaten if we can’t be compelled To do their bidding we endure this hell The food you give us is unfit to eat The air, unfit to breathe Our limbs break in your machine And for this, we should be pleased Weapons forged to make them see What they've done to you and me And this is why violence it must be A violence to make them understand our need Fight back or fall before their blade I cannot, I will not be their fucking slave The sun dims on a quiet eve A procession moves through the streets Atop their throne they will see Burning light from the wreckage of their machinery Weapons forged to make them see Weapons forged to set ourselves free
