THE CONSEQUENCE:
Your actions speak loud
They reveal your intent
The hammer is dropped
Time to face the consequence
TARGET ON MY BACK:
There’s a target on my back
Paranoia tries to knock me off track
There’s a target on my back
Leeches drain me for the life they fucking lack
You think you can gain by these guilt games
Running your mouth with no shame
It’s been done before, your cards have been played
My patience has payed off, I’ll erase your name
Shoot you down
Back to reality
Dig your grave
Can’t escape your mortality
This is your fate
Destined to fall
Your time is up
The hammer judges all
There’s a target on my back
I’ll never give in, you can’t get this stone to crack
You can’t break me

Cast Out
01:14
|

|
Mankind is a disease
Violence plagues our streets
Purging off the fucking meek
Rot for the whole world to breathe
Life’s a burning cancer, subject for death
Everything surrounding me is breeding contempt
Boiling point, charred inside
This world of barbed wire, leaving nothing behind
Cast out
Cast out
Cast out
Cast out
Damage is done
Cast out
Cities overrun
Cast out
Firing the guns
Cast out
Dried flesh in the sun

What is Earned
01:20
|

|
I don’t aim to please
Never bowing down to you
Vapid transparency
I can see through
Ladder climbing scum
I know the truth
You get what is fucking earned
Playing the fool is the easy way out
No trust left, I should’ve listened to my doubt
Used me as a stepping stone for personal gain
Cheating for the finish, but the die hard remain
Cutting corners only gets you so far.
You don’t have what it takes, fuck your false starts.
You don’t have what it takes
The die hard remain
Now it’s your fucking turn
You get what is earned
Hard work always comes out on top

H.T.S.A.M.
00:47
|
|||
|
These corrupted feeble minds
Stuck running in place against the sands of time
The righteous path is nowhere to find
These stagnant barriers
We must break
Step up to the challenge
That’s how the strong are made

Mental Decay
01:00
|
|||
|
Cheap synthetic world view
Packaged convenience
Reality? The lines are blurred
Plastic acceptance
Mental decay
This life is not meant to be
Artificial in every way
Not meant to be
Reality? The lines are blurred
Calculating our life’s worth
Reality breaking down
Seize the keys the time is now

You Let Them Win
00:53
|
|||
|
I see the shadows
Take on new forms
I see them walking
Down on all fours
Beast of burden
You’ve given in
Sheep to slaughter
You let them win
The signs read clear
The flesh bubble bursts
Blood, sweat and tears
For their unquenchable thirst
You let them win
|

Embrace the Fear
01:50
|
|||
|
The silence
The cold rush
I can sense that somethings up
A change is coming
A violent one
What will be left when it’s said and done
Embrace the fear
Bare your teeth as it draws near
Look it in the eyes
Let it be known you won’t go down without a fight

In terms of darkness and extremity we have reached a point here. There is a lot going on during this record but the theme of just utter fucking ugliness permeates. Beautifully grotesque. Great record.
