Refugee, silence, agony
crawling back to me. My inner Hell set free! Sacrifice, acceptance at a price. Solidarity! fuck you, I am integrity. Insurrection! Ritual aggression! Ritual, Ritual! Culminate while we instigate. See my scars of hate, this is the new dark age. Build upon a war that can't be won. Infernal agony just set me free. Insurrection! Ritual aggression! Ritual, Ritual! When you're facing the end your pilgrimage begins. Order out of chaos, order from disorder. Ritual, Ritual, order from disorder. Ritual! 02. Dead Behind The Eyes
Sky burns, no return, you
sweat the hate from your flesh. Rejoice through the void, consumed by loss of breath. Human greed is our destruction, the abyss of your seduction Demure, suffer, the grief a burden to bear. No pain, walk on fire, holy mystic aura! Cenobites I know your kind, dead behind the eyes. Self-inflicted cenobites, dead behind the eyes. Endless, deathless, a cryptic inner fear. What's left, the wretched, and those who speak in your ear. Eviscerate your own impressions, die along with your transgressions. Menace, penance, horrific path to ascension. No pain, walk on fire, holy mystic aura! Cenobites I know your kind, dead behind the eyes. Self-inflicted cenobites, dead behind the eyes. All the flesh eaters, skin crawlers, they tear you limb from limb. Blood feeders, Hellraisers, these vermin feed my rage. Dead behind the eyes! Do you purge fire, shed light, or let them come tonight? Nephilim, Seraphim, the lost paradise. Cenobites I know your kind! You're all dead, so fucking dead behind the eyes. 03. The Summoning
I walk the path of divination,
escape the shackles of subjugation. Labor and beauty was divine, a barren land I leave behind. Broken bones, bloodlust, war drums, and swollen lungs. Will you take my soul, will you take my world? I fear no one! The strength I summon... Extermination came of age, our innocence tortured and chained. Exploited by your own reflections, your golden kingdoms, rotting infections. Smoking stone, breach of trust, dethrone, I bleed alone. Will you make me whole, will you make me holy? Into the storm I run! The strength I summon... The sickness, the rapture, the furious rape, tyrants I fear, tyrants I hear. The cosmic sun blind us and guide us, you envy the dead, the future unclear. With loaded hands... "Execution!" Will you take my soul, will you take my world? I fear no one! The strength I summon... 04. Evil Empowered
Bow down to the
greatest corrupter, the second coming of the Antichrist unearthed. Live with a curse, kill in the name of God. The Devil's won! Knife in the back, we ignored the truth! Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above. Can you see through the veil that covers you? Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above. Evil in place of power! Awoke by a thief in the night of retribution, pandemic welcoming of your final solution. We are cursed, an idol to be your God. The Devil's won! Knife in the back, we ignored the truth! Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above. Can you see through the veil that covers you? Rise above, rise above, rise above, rise above. Evil in place of power! 05. Under Rapture
Under the blaze of the midnight sun,
to wreak destruction forward we go. Expose the pain, now you reap what you sow. Plague and storms, they will return. Cut from life, face the light. Cut from life, face the light. Born to suffer, buried under, God's Hammer, under rapture. Cut from life! Aeons descended from the Heavens, ever defiant, open your eyes. Abomination of desolation, no one leaves until it's time. Cut from life, face the light. Cut from life, face the light. Born to suffer, buried under, God's Hammer, under rapture. Cut from life! Igneous ophidian, darkness inversion. Splendor of all that's inhuman, rapture, rapture, rapture. Immortal ascension, divine intervention, killing intentions, self-immolation. Rapture... Cut from life! Holy gospel of savage faith, grotesque glory reclaimed. Rapture, rapture, rapture! Primitive weapons for sacrifice, pagan fire, poison messiah. Rapture, rapture, rapture! Rapture... I see where the demons dwell, fighting for your life. Like lambs to the slaughter! 06. Demonized
"From the throne came flashes of lightning,
rumblings, and peals of thunder. Before the throne seven lamps were blazing, these are the seven spirits of God." Fire born from the emptiness, lost souls, faith relinquished. Red skies, red skies! Thunderous, thunderous, thunderous, thunderous. Demonized! These omens, Jupiter's gaze, visions of raising Caine. Prayers torn asunder, these hollow grounds breed murder. Drowned God, drowned God! Thunderous, thunderous, thunderous, thunderous. Demonized! Are you judging my morals and my lack of faith? Intolerance of nothing that is sacrosanct. Disgracing the arrogant, I'll craft my throne from pestilence. Malevolent, you're nothing, you're all dead to me, dead! 07. Blood On The Street
Chain link and concrete,
blood on the streets. Different eyes and hair, the scales of justice don't care. Chain link and concrete, blood on the streets. Foreboding God Complex, she never knew she was next. Like Devils in uniform, forced traditions to conform. With the coming of caustic hordes casualties become the norm. Can you hear them? Let them speak! New dark ages ice my veins, net worth different at birth to protect and to serve. Fuck that, are you insane? When they fall, they fall strong, real strength lies in resolve. Dead justice has failed us, rogue power, crooked laws. Can you hear them? Let them speak! Can you hear them? Let them speak! "Na fronteira entre o céu e o inferno, 22 milímetros de ferro!" Testimony of survivor's tale, triumphant verdict, the dead don't care. Unseen terror, a horror dream, guardian lost, what does it mean? Chain link and concrete, blood on the streets. Different eyes and hair, the scales of justice don't care. Chain link and concrete, blood on the streets. Foreboding God Complex, she never knew she was next. She was next! 08. Bite The Bullet
I am part of the war,
I have been here before. Grease the tires, spill the blood, innocence dragged through the mud. Anger, fear, rising contradiction. Suffer, pester, carrying this affliction. Bite, bite the bullet... I am the master of my enemies, feed the lions, on the run, crosses covered, weighing a ton. Power, hatred, ashes in your mouth. Demons, shadows turn you inside out. Bite, bite the bullet... Only hate remains... Hostile visions beyond resistance. Grotesque, hollow I am becoming. Summon warriors, Gods of the old. War eternal, war immortal! Bite, bite the bullet... 09. Feedback!
Vanishing point of the black top,
shithole venue smells like rot. A thousand nights I left behind, another tribe, another time. Feedback, feedback! Um, dois, três, quatro, not a fucking regret! A brotherhood at stage right, a circle pit night after night. A congregation packed full of sinners, another road, another winter. Feedback, feedback! Um, dois, três, quatro, not a fucking regret! Broken bottles thrown in a fight, cannot move, sold out tonight. Stage dive, no fucking glamour, tonight's show, it's all that matters. Feedback, feedback! Not a fucking regret, not a fucking regret! Many were cursed and many alive, carry a torch for those who have died. Carve your skin, a mosaic forever, never say die, never say never. Never say never! No regret... 10. Soulfly XI
