Tracks



01. Prepare For Attack

Rise up and take control
Revolution, execution, the solution, can't let it go
Fighting, biting, taking over
Crushing the powers that be

Let them know
Let 'em know we're coming back
Lock and load
Prepare for attack

Striking with deadly force
Taking the fascist dictator down with no remorse
Cutting of the head of state
Decapitated land: we infiltrate

Let them know
Let 'em know we're coming back
Lock and load
Prepare for attack

Taking no shit from overseas
Stomp out the Infection
Prevent the disease
Fighting, biting taking over
Empire slows to a crawl

Let them know
Let 'em know we're coming back
Lock and load
Prepare for attack

02. Fatal Intervention

Hostility means
Ready to ignite
On the offensive
Striking tonight

Like staring at the sun
The eyes begin to warp
Witnessing insane
Now feel the pain

This is fatal intervention
Violence rages throughout
Thrashing with the intention
Of never letting it stop

Leaving no trace
None left behind
Answer to a missing life
Psychopathic mind

Like staring at the sun
The eyes begin to warp
Witnessing insane
Now feel the pain

This is fatal intervention
Violence rages throughout
Thrashing with the intention
Of never letting it stop

This is Fatal Intervention
Violence rages Throughout
Thrashing with the intention
Of never letting it stop
Hostility means
Ready to ignite
On the Offensive Striking tonight

Like staring at the sun
The eyes begin to warp
Witnessing insane
Now feel the pain

This is fatal intervention
violence rages throughout
Thrashing with the intention
Of never letting it stop

03. No Amnesty

Taking away all human rights
Terror is the plan
Sever ties of decency
Dagger in hand

Promise of an afterlife
If it feeds the appetite
Reeking of death and decay

Beating on the door of vengeance
You'll never get away
Not this time
No Amnesty

Stabbing at the liberties
Of people like you and I
Faith holds a special reason
Of telling why they die

Promise of an afterlife
If it feeds the appetite
Reeking of death and decay

Beating on the door of vengeance
You'll never get away
Not this time
No Amnesty

Promise of an afterlife
If it feeds the appetite
Promise of an afterlife
Can you feed the appetite?
Taking creed out of the picture
What do you see?
A lunatic with an altered sense
Of life's reality

Promise of an afterlife
If it feeds the appetite
Reeking of death and decay

Beating on the door of vengeance
You'll never get away
Not this time
No Amnesty

04. D.O.A.

Closing out the night
Too numb to feel
Fifteen too many, but still behind the wheel
Heeding no warning
Control denied
Reaching the end of the line

Living too fast
Throw it away
No second chance
D.O.A.

Smell the searing flesh, smell it too real
See the dead beneath the steel
A tragic sight brought from the road
No curtain call
No going home

Living too fast
Throw it away
No second chance
D.O.A.

Dead on arrival
Closing out the night
Too numb to feel
Fifteen too many, but still behind the wheel
Living too fast
Throw it away
No second chance
D.O.A.
Dead on arrival

05. Covering Fire

Praying I'm not the next one at the front of the line
Ghastly voices telling me I have to stay alive
I cannot remember one day I didn't kill
Their weakening faces haunt me forever, still

Piercing through the flesh, tearing the wounds open more
Cutting them down, one by one
Consequences are for those who do not reign supreme
Killing for life I scream, "Covering fire!"

Victims lie dead, shot to the head, spitting blood back in their face
Gathering strength to make memories fade
Of the fabled master race
Peace: a part of the future
War: a thing of the past
Can this be reality...
Or just a favor no man can ask?

Piercing through the flesh, tearing the wounds open more
Cutting them down, one by one
Consequences are for those who do not reign supreme
Killing for life I scream, "Covering fire!"

Glad to be the last one at the back of the line
Ghastly voices telling me I had to stay alive
I cannot remember one day I didn't kill
Their weakening faces haunt me forever, still

Piercing through the flesh, tearing the wounds open more
Cutting them down, one by one
Consequences are for those who do not reign supreme
Killing for life I scream, "Covering fire!"

06. Killing Tendencies

Creeping in like rolling thunder
Can't stop yourself from going under
Seems like you don't even try
Don't care if you're dead or alive

Can you see everything
That you, once, were meant to be?
Bury the things that make you weak
Killing all your tendencies

Look out, this thing's about to explode
Cancerous choices make danger wherever you go
You don't even bat an eye...
Don't care if you live or die

Can you see everything
That you, once, were meant to be?
Bury the things that make you weak
Killing all your tendencies

It swept through like rolling thunder
Just one strike to take you under
Seems like you didn't even try
Doesn't matter now 'cause you're not alive

Can you see everything
That you, once, were meant to be?
Bury the things that make you weak
Killing all your tendencies

07. Scumbag In Disguise

Talkin' shit don't mean a thing
When you've got nothing else to bring
You criticize, you patronize; to me it's asinine
Shut it up
Who gives a fuck?
What you think
Or what you thought
Everything you have to say
Doesn't matter anyway

In this world of efficiency
There's no room for mediocrity
Jealousy runs deep in his eyes
Not hard to find a scumbag in disguise

Picking at another bone
You're entering the danger zone
Cutting heads with all the rest
With no skills to be the best
Knowing this, why do you try?
'Cause you need to justify
Making your opinions heard
Even though they're just absurd

In this world of efficiency
There's no room for mediocrity
Jealousy runs deep in his eyes
Not hard to find a scumbag in disguise

Talking out your ass again
It could be a mortal sin
Life will be all black and blue
When you get what's coming to you
Shut it up
Who gives a fuck?
What you think
Or what you thought
Everything you have to say
Doesn't matter anyway

In this world of efficiency
There's no room for mediocrity
Jealousy runs deep in his eyes
Not hard to find a scumbag in disguise

08. The Cleric

Can't make a living
Off of stronger minds
Prey on the weak ones
Poison their lives

A Cleric with a plot
To take it all and leave the poor ones to rot
Can't you read his persona? He's taking over

Corruption slips deep through the cracks
Tells you how to act
Sacrifice your minds
And then you die

Spread it out to new land
Setting the trap
Crossing all bounderies
To grow the money stack

A Cleric with a plot
To take it all and leave the poor ones to rot
Can't you read his persona? He's taking over

Corruption slips deep through the cracks
Tells you how to act
Sacrifice your minds
And then you die

The fourth circle of hell is reserved for the greedy bastards
Who can't make sense of their own teachings
Tied up with their face to the ground
The are the personified Averice

09. Out Of My Way

Don't hold me back
I've got too much to lose
I'll cauterize the open wound

You obey
I said get out of my way
You obey
I said get out of my way

Pulling you out
Like a thorn in my side
Give yourself up
Like there's nothing to hide

You obey
I said get out of my way
You obey
I said get out of my way

Crash and burn
But you still never learn
Screams aren't heard
When you're crushed by the weight of the world

You obey
I said get out of my way
You obey
I said get out of my way

10. Time Is Up

Take a number and have a seat
We'll be with you shortly
Plead your case: appeal to me
I'll be judge and jury
On your feet for sentencing

Your time is up
Time is up
Your time is up
Time is up

Follow me into the void
Of emptiness that fills your mind
Think of all the bullshit
You will get to leave behind
On your feat for sentencing

Your time is up
Time is up
Your time is up
Time is up
