Our flag sees no colors. Will not judge by creed or race Our flag is black like our souls. Stained with red of those who gave their blood Our flag sees no colors. Will not judge by creed or race Our flag is black like our souls. Serve no boundaries Freedom stolen by imaginary lines Trapped between walls where dreams are declined Persecuted (executed). Lives are defined by the course of wars Counting hours of sorrow. No escape, no tomorrow Waiting for a new chance, a fresh start to break the chains Fleeing from terror, measures of despair Across the borders, a breath of fresh air Then exclusion (reclusion). Diversity breeds fear, segregation and tears Facing a new world while judgeful eyes increase. No justice, no peace Just because your eyes are still closed, it doesn't make it all gone Displaced! If you can't trust people with freedom, how can you trust people with power? Mind and soul, flesh and bones. We're all the same in this forsaken world Our flag sees no colors. Will not judge by creed or race Our flag is black like our souls. Serve no boundaries

I remember the times you spent, pointing fingers here and there Always with the last word. Always being the most true "True till death" where it ends? A thousand faces, you showed day after day Always backed up with your friends. Always liked to lead the blind That was how you ended You can't stop us. We are here to stay Fighting back, biting back You are done Look back over the choices you made Picking up the pieces of the role that you played Now the streets are talking and the cards are dealt You can not comeback for this Rest in pain Out of the game, you have been forgotten Out of the game. No friends, no trends All those people that you used, are haunting down for you So you can not stop us. We are here to stay We are the resistance, keep your fucking distance Look back over the choices you made Picking up the pieces of the role that you played Now the streets are talking and the cards are dealt You can not comeback for this Rest in pain Rest in pain now This time, you've lost yourself in a long fall from grace You brought this on yourself. That's how you are ended

Defiance 03:03
Can't lower my guard, I choose to react Because the traps are hidden in plain sight What's done is done, there's no looking back Can't fall behind. I'm out of my cage Its "sink or swim", its "live or die" As you grew old in age, i grew so cold in rage Now times are changing from bad to worse But i'm still the same. Still the same against this world Till my dying day, till my final breath, against a world i don't belong On this life we never find peace Daily struggles that will never cease We live, we lie, we love, we die.... Striving to survive But I'm still defiant! And will remain defiant! Standing through the tests of time... Never fall in line The world keeps spinning, but going in reverse Hard times have changed me, yet I am still the same Live and learn, never forget of the choices and the paths we have take No remorse, no regret. Always two steps ahead

"Raise your fists!" Day after day he shouted to himself A failed attempt to get up again. In the depths of the darkest hour The anguish has a bitter taste And with the weight of the world on his back, giving up seemed the fast way back on track At each step, another chain link was closed, and everything collapsed again His asylum was only an illusion, hatred was carved into his bones His asylum was only an illusion, but it will remain forever within itself "Tie and cut, let it drain to the end." The greater pain will never be caused by death The only truth that united us, now flows down the floor ...and he still keeps asking for more And with the weight of the world on his back, giving up seemed the fast way back on track At each step, another chain link was closed, and everything collapsed again I try to fight these feelings, which seem to have no end... I try to climb out of this deep hole… but everything collapse again I shouldn't let you in through that door, So sweet, you came and took my soul I burned my dreams and swallowed it all. You never told me how painful it was His asylum was only an illusion, hatred was carved into his bones My asylum was the only solution, and I will remain within myself

Dark times Surrounded by hatred. Living on the edge of fear, doubting everything they hear People blinded with national pride. Anger chasing victims by racial profile Gas times Masses turned against the oppressed. Forcing the excluded to live in distress Keeping people away from the fight. Exalting fascist tyrants and their display of might Hate is getting the best of us. Lost hopes, false dreams All i see is empathy for no one, prejudice for all Disrupted misconceptions imprisoning your mind Hard Times Narrow minded used as tool. Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth Out of control police assaults. You are judge and jury until death puts a halt End line Always blaming victims, Logic lost on brainwashed minds Shielded behind doctrines of a twisted god, you play your part in the firing squad Hate is getting the best of us. Lost hopes, false dreams All i see is empathy for no one and prejudice for all Worthless misconceptions imprisoning your mind Welcome to hell my dearest friend One way trip on this socialized hate

Endbringer 02:49
This daydream is over, your nightmare just begun Stay away, stay aware. Watch the doomsday come See the ashes falling, falling from the skies Our land is bleeding, Bleeding inside out Now stop and ask yourself, Was it worth the price? Corporations work for greed. Burning this world, taking what they need Now you may ask yourself, Is this the end? Is this the end? Payback is a bitch motherfucker! Population's distress. Progress's march drains life out Step aside, no blind eyes. Watch the doomsday come We are the ones to blame. Leading life like there's no tomorrow We are Mute, We are blind, we are deaf. Soon there will be nothing left Now stop and ask yourself, Was it worth the price? Corporations, mining fields Ripping the earth out under dubious deals Now you may ask yourself, Is this the end? Is this the end? Slave labor dying of starvation. Thirst for power leading to extermination Cold blooded suits running the cycle of death. Watch the earth downfall on its final breath BRING THE END! There's no turning back BRING THE END! And no fucking cure

Reprisal 02:41
Can't spend my life living in regret Many times i forgave, but i will never forget One round to fight, one chance of survival The time has come for reprisal Taking back what's ours. Out of step, out of line The Downfall of their lies. Day by day, one by one From broken homes, dead end streets Force-fed with false ideals We won't bow our heads, refuse to kneel Can't spend my life living in regret Many times i forgave, but i will never forget One round to fight, one chance of survival The time has come for reprisal I won't end up in this cage I'll bite the hand that feeds Losing grip on what's real. We still stand, we still feel We will march strong as one. There's no hide, there's no run Revenge will come from those who have been left behind It's our time, our destiny. We'll dig the grave of tyranny Reprisal! THE TIME HAS COME. UNITE AS ONE THE TIME HAS COME. UNITE AS ONE

Buried Alive 02:47
Forcing through the days, another sleepless night With all this weight on my shoulders, feels like im buried alive Buried alive! I can't see. I can't breathe But I can't deny, I chose a path driven by wrath Walked under dark clouds, waited for the storm to come Built a wall around myself. I never trusted no one Counting down the days, and sweating through the nights With all this weight on my shoulders, feels like i'm losing my mind Losing my mind! And I will rise, every time i fall I’ll find my way of getting through it all I can't see. I can't breathe But I can't deny, I chose a path, filled with wrath All or nothing, all for nothing? These questions rules my life All or nothing, all for nothing? The enemy is inside my mind

Outcast 02:49
Tied hard in hollow ambitions. Living on your knees, redemption is what you seek Clubs are full, souls are empty, so we can't feel the rope tight in our necks I feel surrounded by impositions. In desperate need for my own Decisions No matter how hard this reality unfolds, I won't fall in line, i will not be controlled Worlds are about to collide, I choose my side, i chose my fight The real enemy it's out of sight, so I walk my path far from the mass You keep questioning all of my choices, as life passes by you in front of your eyes I want to live free, so i broke my chains, I found my place, a means to an end I feel surrounded by impositions. In desperate need for my own Decisions No matter how hard this reality unfolds, I won't fall in line, i will not be controlled I won't be part of this I won't bend my knee I’ll be the outcast, the stranger, the averse

Fight Back 05:16
Fight back! This is all we have Boiling with rage, give up at nothing And that's what keeps us alive Through this dark times we shall rise We've been hiding for so long. Now let chaos take its course Take a stand, Clench your fist. For those who died so we can live No love no mercy. They spit on human rights No guilt, No fear. Payback time Fight back! You are not alone Fight back! United and strong Survival, already transformed into an art Now it's time to turn it into a war Dusk till dawn, back to back Through this dark times we shall rise Defiance, untill words become action Alliance, against all form of oppression Side by side we stand together Ignite all banners, set this world on fire We'll stop at nothing. We won't back down Scream your heart out and fight for more
