lyrics

Power is the seed of a gluttonous age,
When gears of war no longer grind away
On battle fields where soldiers gave their lives,
But within the shrine of industry.

Homo sapiens cattle driven forth,
Underneath the heel of corporate plots.
Economic titans herd the world.
Globalize – their method to enslave.

Modern wars not fought for freedom.
Asset is the coveted prize.
Morality is bought and traded.
The might of greed determines law.

Human assimilation
Into the eternal sea.
Capitol, the juggernaut god
Ruling with blinded eyes.

An all-consuming want to rule.
A narcissistic power.

Ambient manipulation,
A global hive obeys the queen.
No more, does honor exist,
When kings become the thieves.

Warfare with fighting unseen,
To gridlock all industry.
Tactics for evading treaty,
Assassinate economies.

Elitist thought erodes integrity,
Separation fuels the fire of States.
A nation, under god, with earthly lusts,
Infectious want destroys prosperity.

Rival nations plotting cryptic ways,
A never-ending scheme of pulling strings.
Imbalance is a game where no one wins,
To the wicked comes a wicked end.

Global, world oligarchy,
Gives birth to tyranny.
The abstract and unrelenting
Over-rules society.

Icons for sustaining power,
Faceless, foul entities.
Expanding annihilation,
Absent of indignity.

An all-consuming want to rule.
A narcissistic power.
