Rise from the ashes Of bridges burned Reborn in flames That light our way This is our time The end is here Open our eyes No longer blinded Hatred black blood Will fill our veins New rage gives life This is the way Old flesh left behind Shed for their demise Tortured our souls Bled us dry Lifetime of pain We can never die Fire deep inside Fuel this machine Driven by hate Crush humanity (Chuck Billy) We bleed the beast Slaughter the sheep Snuff out our enemies All while you sleep No longer men All good is gone No soul to save Evil remains Rise from the ashes Of bridges burned Feast on the flames That light our way Rise from the ashes Of bridges burned Rise from the ashes This is the way! Reborn in black For ever burned Feed on your pain Evil remains

Infiltrate 03:42
This one goes out to the brave Not for you the lives that you saved Hell on Earth Life is depraved Trench warfare your head I will cave Freedom brings the cost at hand Command to kill you fellow man Moving forward theres no other plan Push back enemies from your land Come and get it Come and take it On the frontline / Locked and loaded (2nd time) Squeeze the trigger Rifle in your hand Target in sights Reload again and again Pull the pin Throw another frag Forgetting all your fear Taking pride in our flag Infiltrate – filled with hate – Don’t hesitate – It’s you or them Standing tall for the win Taking lives can’t be your sin When face to face it’s you or them Not your life to condemn On your feet boy – Get up – Move it – Lets go Move – Fight – Stab - Strike

Full of Hell 02:50
The smoke clears And I’m still here Against the odds I’ve persevered I’ve got no soul to sell No fear in where I dwell I’m not an empty shell These eyes full of hell I’ve fed on pain Broken these chains Turned the tides Now I reign NOW I REIGN! Broken chains I remain I’m still here I persevere I’ve got no soul to sell No fear in where I dwell I’m not an empty shell These eyes full of hell Got no more soul to sell I’ve made my way through hell Beaten down Left for dead Been abandoned My eyes, blood red Found new strength In the flames Meant to consume me Now they fuel me I’m still here I persevere I’ve got no soul to sell No fear in where I dwell

From My Eyes 03:28
As you look upon My face of stone I’ve bled for you Your lies were force fed Tables are turned Now you’re dead and burned With no hope for you Haven’t you learned Past is the past Broken free All your lies From your disguise As you’re laid to rest No tears will Fall from my eyes You son of a bitch If Jesus saves Then he should have saved himself All your shit talk Is bad for your health Keep me in mind When you praise yourself Never trust religion The state, the wealth From my eyes You will feel no pain You’ll feel No remorse From my eyes No pain, no remorse From my eyes Fate has taken Fate has taken its course My eyes have seen a lot For your sins left to rot Have some remorse I think not Dead eyes forever bloodshot Inside of me you’ll see Just what you've done to me
5.
The Hunted 02:52
Panic, sets in Condemned, for your sins Lesson to be learned But it’s too late You never listen Tempted your fate Stare into the void And it stares back They see you now Shadows in black I smell your fear It brought you here I am the hunter You are the deer I need to feed On what you bleed There’s no escape The hunger in me Spider to the fly Horror in your eyes They will never find Nothing left behind Panic, sets in Condemned, for your sins You wanted more Opened the door You were warned By ghosts of war Try to run away Beg for another way You are the hunted You are the prey
6.
Can’t be broken I won’t be broken I’m telling you I’m not joking I hate to be The bearer of bad news I love to see you in pain I really do Now you can’t breathe You’re begging on your knees Soon you’ll be deceased Choke on your blood Can’t be broken I won’t be broken I told you before On your blood you’re choking I told you Just believe when I say I can’t be broken But you try anyway You thought you had me Right where you wanted I won’t be broken I’ll stand my ground Can’t be broken I won’t be broken I told you before I wasn’t joking
7.
Live every day Like your last Enjoy yourself But not too fast Sippin and drinking The evil swill Doing the bidding Of the devils will Thrill of the hunt Go for the kill Swimming not drowning I’ll get my fill Raise your glasses, it’s all downhill! Move forward Forget the past Learn from every stone That’s cast Grab me a bottle Pour it down Down the ole hatch Without making a sound King of all spirits Won’t give up my crown Don’t play the fool He’s only a clown Set up, one more round! Confess your sins Through blurry eyes Whiskey is the truth Don’t ever compromise Fill me up With the devils cut Pray the angels share Isn’t much Grab me a bottle Slam it down Hair of the dog My kind of hound SET UP! ONE MORE ROUND!

Never been one To hold my tongue That’s just how I’m made Speak my mind My word is my bond Loyal to the grave Paid my dues Don’t my time Did my dirt I claim what’s mine Take the bad To earn the good I’m built on honor That’s understood Give it to get it Respect from me Burn it or earn it Can’t take it from me Give it to get it Respect from me Never question My loyalty Never been one To hold my tongue That’s just how I’m made Speak my mind My word is my bond Loyal to the grave Then here you come From out of nowhere With something to say You’re just a loud mouth From the wrong crowd Trying to get their way Paid my dues Don’t my time Did my dirt I claim what’s mine Take the bad To earn the good I’m built on honor That’s understood Who the fuck Do you think you are To try and question me Keep talking shit You’ll catch these hands You got nothing on me You’re a fucking rat I see in your eyes Nowhere to run From me you can’t hide Your just another fake Behind a disguise Smash your fucking face For your lies You’re a fucking rat I see in your eyes Nowhere to run From me you can’t hide Your just another fake Behind a disguise Smash your fucking face For your lies Never been one To hold my tongue That’s just how I’m made Speak my mind My word is my bond Loyal to the grave

I see how you look at me You got something to say Spit it out if you got the nerve Or get the fuck out my way You think I don’t know What’s being said When my back is turned I’m one step ahead Of what you think I won’t be burned Not this time Taking all that’s mine It’s us vs them I’m leaving you behind Liar, Deceiver You won’t drag me down Loose lips sink ships I’ll watch you drown You were a brother to me Now you’re nothing to me I see how you look at me You got something to say Spit it out if you got the nerve Or get the fuck out my way I made the mistake Of calling you a friend That won’t happen again Betrayed in the end I will never break I will never bend Not this time Taking all that’s mine It’s us vs them I’m leaving you behind Liar, Deceiver You won’t drag me down Loose lips sink ships I’ll watch you drown You were a brother to me Now you’re nothing to me I see how you look at me You got something to say Spit it out if you got the nerve Or get the fuck out my way The truth I’ve always known How fake you are Deep in my bones Cut ties long ago I’ve made my peace For the wrong I’ve shown Not this time Taking all that’s mine It’s us vs them I’m leaving you behind Liar Deceiver Liar Deceiver

Tearing Down 03:51
See the sickness Surrounding me I try to escape But in my eyes, devastation This world brings out The worst in most people So I say fuck it now Let it crumble Tearing Down Piece By Piece Brick By Brick Tearing Down Piece By Piece Brick By Brick Can’t stop the madness As sick fucks strive for pride Giving their last breath Every drop of blood left inside Now you’re strung out Torn guts spill to the floor Could have made it easy Now your life is no more Seen torture many times Felt it many times more Live on borrowed time Knocking on hells door Tearing Down Piece By Piece Brick By Brick Tearing Down Piece By Piece Brick By Brick Why try to help We’re being pushed aside Tear it all down now Take what’s mine! See the sickness Surrounding me Try to escape Devastation This world brings out The worst in people So I say now Let it crumble Tearing Down Piece By Piece Brick By Brick Tearing Down Piece By Piece Brick By Brick TEARING DOWN!

The question they keep asking me How can one so young be so bitter and angry Well, the answer is plain to see Maybe if they weren't so blind they'd see what i see I see the homeless livin' out on the street On every corner they're asking for money I try to help them whenever i can But sometimes i can't afford to help myself I see diseases and modern plagues of our times The greed of our leaders has made them blind To our problems They spend millions overseas, People right here are fightin' wars everyday I see the whites that hate the blacks Blacks against the jews, race against religion And they're all too blind to see When we fight each other it puts all of them at ease It keeps us so busy, so they can do what they please Election time comes and they're out for votes That's when you see and hear from them the most This is what they're calling a democracy That's just another word for hypocrisy We keep fallin' for the bait When we realize, it's always too late I see the whites that hate the blacks Blacks that hate the jews, brother against brother And they're all to blind to see As the rich get richer, the poor goin' hungry I've seen the toll it takes on the workingman's family Education system that's obsolete Can't hold a kid's interest or keep 'em off the street See a father's fear, hear a mother's cry What kind of a nation lets their children die Government's corrupt and full of red tape Then you're gonna ask me why i hate Why don't you open up your eyes so you can see Open up your ears so you can hear Take a look around and you will find Take a look around and you will find out why
