[Instumental]

I keep my base

I watched our common wealth go down with your preaching
Dead empty words like those belong to the self-righteous
Do you have a clue what it means to breathe in hell?
I don't, but I know the have-nots
Who constantly are wearing the pain

Hate-bred, youth outraged
My arrival violated, you better repent this!

Systemized oppression in the heart of our community
Now that's lobotomy
I refuse to be one-sided 'cause the world is so divided
No, that's not a part of me
Staring at the lunacy, the art of man's morality
In this society
I choose the way of battle
Scream my voice until it shatters (shatter)

Are you with me?
I keep my base

Those evil minds that only criticise are the ones to blame
By dividing our stand
They leave us begging from hands
That don't give a fuckin' damn

Hate-bred, youth outraged,
My arrival violated, you better repent this!
Your threats are out of range
Sure as hell I'm dedicated
To transform your words into a death wish

Systemized oppression in the heart of our community
Now that's lobotomy
I refuse to be one-sided 'cause the world is so divided
No, that's not a part of me
Staring at the lunacy, the art of man's morality
In this society
I choose the way of battle
Scream my voice until it shatters (shatter)

Are you with me?
I keep my base
I keep my base

In this golden age of desperate need
Why do we stand still?
And before they know
They can see us from their backyards
While we bring the war to their doorsteps

Systemized oppression in the heart of our community
Now that's lobotomy
I refuse to be one-sided 'cause the world is so divided
No, that's not a part of me
Staring at the lunacy, the art of man's morality
In this society
I choose the way of battle
Scream my voice until it shatters

Are you with me?
I keep my base
I keep my base

Information, let the freedom flow!
Transformation, let this demon go!

Let the light shine on all of our restraints
The ones that always keep us in place
We start this debate on who's the master and the chief
I'm sure you always wanted to be
You're twisting, commanding, manipulating me
The nonexistent you're making me to see
I'M TURNING into two, the mad and the sane
This battle tears the virtues within

The bullet's inside and penetrates my mind
I'm trapped in you and the horror comes alive
Let me stay alive for the wave that begins to rise

Fight, fight, fight for my sanity
INFORMATION!
The more resistance grows, the more I'm free
LET THE FREEDOM FLOW!
Fight, fight for the change to be
TRANSFORMATION!
It all starts with the trigger and me
LET THIS DEMON GO!

Break the shadows and the darkness deep within
Losing all the thoughts of defeat
Start your engine; become the chaos machine
With mayhem in your every heartbeat
Embracing the righteous, the fight that you're in
Weakness is a mortal sin, OUR EVERY SIN!
Live to the fullest, pure heart the final keep
Join me now, or join the flock of sheep

The bullet's inside and penetrates my mind
I'm trapped in you and the horror comes alive
ALIVE!

Alive, let me stay alive for the wave that begins to rise
Behind these insane eyes, no one is your guide

Information, let the freedom flow!
Transformation, let this demon go!
ALIVE!

And I have not witnessed justice
Therefore I have no reasons to play it fair
All these wrong-turn exits turning to right ones
It's up to me, it's up to me. Now I decide...
...how I should live, by the day, and create

Start believing me; there is no one else you see
I'm a riot of one man and I won't trade my soul
I know this in my heart; you won't bring me to my knees
You better criticise exactly who you are
WHO ARE YOU!?

It's not about the skills or your abilities
You don't learn this life by copy-paste; no, you decide
Now free yourself from from self restraints; don't belong
It's in your head, all in your head. Now you decide...
...how you should live, by the day, and create
How you should live, by the day, and create

Start believing me; there is no one else you see
I'm a riot of one man and I won't trade my soul
I know this in my heart; you won't bring me to my knees
You better criticise exactly who you are
WHO ARE YOU!?

I DECIDE how I should live, by the day, and create
I DECIDE how I should live, by the day, and create

Start believing me; there is no one else you see
I'm a riot of one man and I won't trade my soul
I know this in my heart; you won't bring me to my knees
You better criticise exactly who you are

Start believing me
I know this in my heart
Ad you won't find me on my knees.
You better criticise exactly who you are
WHO ARE YOU!?
WHO THE FUCK I AM!?

Fear that lives in my heart for the rest of my life
Emptiness of all that is, illusion of being alive
I have seen the fires of hell, felt them under my skin
Hollow is the truth in this lie we're living in

The horror, the nothing, the sights erasing my soul
Judgement, the truth through this eye I cannot close

Fear...

It all starts up with a pressure on my chest
The air sucked out of my lungs
Physical symptoms just a rapid countdown
To the small death yet to come
A violent chasm takes me down to the depths so cold
Here I have nothing, nothing for comfort
Here I have no soul
And I see...

My eyes laid on
Something I cannot escape from...
This I see

It's strangling me; it kills the hope within
Feeds death to my brain
If I could, I gladly would end my life
Just to end this pain
I cannot move

My eyes laid on
Something I cannot escape from...
This I see
Inside this human shell, madness kicks in
Madness kicks in
I see

When the sights are seen
And I'm just an empty shell
I try to gather my breath
Knowing that I've just been in hell
Living in fear the rest of my life
Trying to forget what I've seen
And the merciless eye made a part of me die
Closed for now, still there somehow...
...until it opens again

How will you feel, how will your mind adjust
When you get the fact that will change it all?
Wanna be a better man?
Just leave it all to a higher hand
And watch it all go down

Your time is nigh. Your time has passed so fast
On a pointless purpose that ain't yours
You wander on, fall through the rest of your days
All the way to your fuckin' grave

Now beginning the struggle to be swallowed
Within these flames you've woken, will broken
You're swallowed

You don't want to burn down
And still you embrace these flames
THAT'S YOUR DISGRACE!
Changing beliefs
Vut still everything stays the same
We're left to, left to
DISINTEGRATE!

And you should know about the need
That lies way underneath
It's crooked and wrong and shows you're weak
But you don't believe that

All that you have,
Having it won't save your ass
From the useless days that have passed
No higher purpose for some shared good cause
No salvation at the end of the story
You have willingly bought

Still you keep on resisting to be swallowed
But within these flames you've woken, will broken
You're swallowed, swallowed

You don't want to burn down
And still you embrace these flames
THAT'S YOUR DISGRACE!
That's, your, disgrace!

LEFT TO DISINTEGRATE!
LEFT TO DISINTEGRATE!

We don't want to burn down
And still we embrace these flames
THAT'S OUR DISGRACE!
Changing beliefs
But still everything stays the same
We're left to
DISINTEGRATE!
DISINTEGRATE!

Unfold, expose myself to these thoughts
It seems there's no angel to take me home
I'm cold and I drank every drop I could find
And the fire in my lungs
It leaves no more room for smoke

Still I breathe
Still I breathe
Still I breathe
I breathe

This world is a graveyard for our souls
The truth was buried in shallow ground
No sleep, no dream to give me peace
No fate, no reason for us being here

And I breathe
And I breathe
And I breathe
And I breathe

All these thoughts cause too much pain
All the colours of childhood are turning grey
All that I fear, I now must face
So grant me this wish: give me time to inhale

Replacing a life of choice with emptiness
I didn't want to be spoken for
Walking in a world of fear
One thought in my mind I hold so dear
You gotta suffer, you gotta pay

Rest in pieces; rest in your shame
Rest in pieces, in pieces of pain

Demanding difference to replace the hate I feel
To walk among the wolves
You have to carry the darkness in your veins
To eliminate the enemy I have to become one
I wear your skin and curse your gods
As I greet the blood red sun

Far too late to feel remorse
So bend your knees as I lay you rest in...
Rest in pieces...

You built me a world made of things
I've grown to hate
But this world also gives me the right
The right to retaliate
I rise outnumbered

Shatter your beliefs onto the floor
No barriers no more
Waste the waste for one good cause
For everything that's lost
For everything that's loved

You built me a world made of things
I've grown to hate
But this world also gives me the right
The right to retaliate

With a loveless caress as my prize
Fight to my death I rise
Outnumbered as I am to retaliate

I rise outnumbered
My deeds justified
Outnumbered I rise
My deeds very just

Like a razor slashing through my bones, I reconcile

Heritace
What is left from yesterday?
Only violence and the sense of greed -- I gag!
A shallow world where crises are solved
With a sum of all our fears

There's too many problems now
We're at the point of no return (dead end now)
We're forced to look the other away
While all this decays

Poisoned by this need to kneel

I wash my face with filth
Confession incomplete
And I leave this place in fires
Hoping it'll learn someday

A future where handguns are leading the way
Is something I can't take, bang bang!
Traditions of a culture buried under
The agony of men

It's a race of self-destruction
Who can beat the odds?
And we can read our names in today's obituary

Poisoned by this need to kneel

I wash my face with filth
Confession incomplete
And I leave this place in fires
Hoping it'll learn someday
Someday

Count, me, out (from this abomination)
Count, me, out

Drained out
I keep on washing my face with filth
This confession's left incomplete
And I leave this place in fires, in fires
I keep on washing my face with filth
This confession's left incomplete
And hope you will learn someday
Someday

Twisting the truth with a tongue so worthless
That even the taste of shit goes to waste
Vomit those words
In case someone hasn't heard your opinion!

Raise yourself to be a preacher
Tell the people how to live a sorry life
Pretending you're not condescending
I hate your guts!

The parasites
Dealing this guilt with their lies
I dream of the day
When the last of those leeches will die
WILL DIE!
WILL DIE!

Worthless words from a worthless mouth
But the noise you make heard over the truth
I'm not listening so quit your endless bitchin'
Let me be!

False preacher, a mail-order Jesus
Got the answers I don't fucking want
You're not a master, I'm not a puppet
Go stare at a barrel of a gun!

The parasites
Dealing this guilt with their lies
I dream of the day
When the last of those leeches will die
WILL DIE!
WILL DIE!

The parasites
Dealing this guilt with their lies
I dream of the day
When the last of those leeches will die

Last of those leeches will die
Die die die!
Die die die!
Die die die!
Die!

Dodge this...

Keep your mouth shut 'cause there is nothing wrong
Just hold it back for some social peace
Don't think twice about unpleasant thoughts
'Cause there might be something nice on TV

Commercial breaks
Telling what you want
Information harnessed
Supporting the fraud
Boneheads in the limelight
Pig shit to transcend
Cash for a prize
Want to be one of them?

Fill in the blanks in your un-aimed mind
Plastic for you to spend your time on
Marching invasion overtakes us all
And the seconds are running out

Tools of misleading
Keeping the sheep in use
You're denying
That comfort is your excuse

You have to realize that you are being had
Computer games just caught you -- too bad
No reset, no restart, no defence
No game saved, only an artificial frame

So damn many easy ways to dodge
Products made of money replacing a cause
No real challenge, hey it might be hard
The easy way out brought us this far
(And it will take us all the way to the end)

Tools of misleading
Keeping the sheep in use
You're denying
That comfort is your excuse

What the fuck did you expect?
How did you think it was going to end?
Life is not a movie with a Hollywood ending
To watch or a video game
That you can practise over and over again.
Life is not a competition of buying piles of shit we don't need
We can't choose the beginnings of our lives
We have way too little time to figure the middles out
And the endings just don't matter
So why should we spend any part of our lives
In the void that is so easily
Inherited from one generation to another?
Just because everyone else does?

If we paid a bit more attention to the things
That we really want to be our legacy
We might understand the one that was passed on to us
Or, we can spend our time dodging the thoughts too heavy to bear
With someone else's way to escape
It's just that we don't have too much time left to break the chain...

Dodge this!
Dodge this!
Dodge this!
