Sintroducer/Take Over

Bust down the doors and we storm to the night
Bring forth the revolution with our metal might
Trash all the wannabes for holding us BACK
Breaking the trends WITH OUR VICIOUS ATTACK
Standing up, against the odds
IT’S TIME TO ROLL
The fire ignites, as we hit the stage
WE TAKE CONTROL
CONTROL
WE TAKE CONTROL
CONTROL
Go for the kill as we take down our foes
Ripping and tearing cus everything goes
We speak for the generation you left BEHIND
Bring back the era OF WESTERN DECLINE
Standing up, against the odds
IT’S TIME TO ROLL
The fire ignites, as we hit the stage
WE TAKE CONTROL
CONTROL
WE TAKE CONTROL
CONTROL
Bust down the doors and we storm to the night
Bring forth the revolution with our metal might
Trash all the wannabes for holding us BACK
Breaking the trends WITH OUR VICIOUS ATTACK
(Chorus)

Zed
03:16
|

Infestation spreads across the land
We fear the dead and the evil of man
Fight for freedom and a way to survive
With brass and steel we defend our lives
We’ve gone through HORDES of the bodies damned
Rations and resources are in demand
Never escaping from the horror we find
Unleash the fury HELD WITHIN OUR MINDS
Fight for POWER
For CONTROL
Fight the SAVIORS, make them pay what they stole
Throw the BODIES
In the SANDS
Lead the way to the new era of man
Fight for POWER
For CONTROL
Fight the SAVIORS, make them pay what they stole
Throw the BODIES
In the SANDS
Lead the way to the new era of man
Choking panic as the cities burn
Gnashing teeth lurk at every turn
Endlessly hunted, we beware of the bite
Undead creatures stalking in the night
One by one our numbers start SHRINK
No peace, no rest, pushing to the brink
Trapped in this nightmare I could never survive
Screaming in pain AS I AM EATEN ALIVE
(Chorus)
It’s time to roll!
Lyrics: Lundmark, Rado

Baptized in Fire
04:31
|
|||
Peasants gather on vile streets, beneath the blackened sky
Seeking their own kind of vengeance
Freedom was a lie
Bringing down authority, so justice can be served
Tyrants reigning on others labor
Will lose what they preserved
There’s no more for you to take
Laws of man are mine to break
Emerge
Baptized In Fire
Emerge
Baptized In Fire
Illusions of integrity oppress the will to fight
Desecrate the work of men who
Dream of equal right
Waiting for the final day when judgement will arrive
Sentencing all men who hindered
Our means to survive
There’s no more for you to take
Laws of man are mine to break
(Chorus)
Lyrics: Lundmark

Why They Fear the Night
05:07
|
|||
Lust for combat bestowed at birth
Blade of my father, one with the earth
They came for slaughter and the Riddle of Steel
Consumed by vengeance I was chained to the wheel
Years of torment, the life of a slave
Beaten and broken, denying the grave
Crushing my enemies, honing my skill
Learning to bend the blade to my will
CREATOR
Of everything that you know
DESTROYER
Of all the life you've been shown
WELLSPRING
The essence from which you flow
THULSA
Reaping the Doom I will sow
Blinded by hatred, emboldened by quest
The bones of my kindred laid to rest
Trapped like a rat in the pit of the snake
By Wizards warning do I awake
Lair of the serpent, my sigil of pain
Power and magic, our fight was in vain
Finally succumbing to the sorcerer’s might
Now they will learn why they fear the night
(Chorus)
(CROM chant)
Cursing my God I take up the blade
Flexing my power as blood is repaid
Cleaving the head with a single swing
Reclaiming my throne, barbarian king
(CROM chant)

Antietam
05:53
|
|||
Twenty-two thousand men in one day
Twenty-two thousand souls on their way
So many lives cut down in their prime
Cruelty of man is swallowed by time
Today is the day, we march to the front
This is our time, we continue the hunt
Shots will fly and the bodies will drag
We fight for our lives, and to honor the flag
Antietam
Eternally our souls will dwell
Antietam
Marching to the gates of hell
Dawn approaches, we launch the attack
Sweeping the field, Confederates falling back
Powder burns as guns recoil
Forever melding the flesh with the soil
Today is the day, we march to the front
This is our time, we continue the hunt
Shots will fly and the bodies will drag
We fight for our lives, and to honor the flag
Antietam
Eternally our souls will dwell
Antietam
Marching to the gates of hell
Twenty-two thousand men in one day
Twenty-two thousand souls on their way
Followed their orders and it brought them dismay
They’re all here to stay
Antietam
Twenty-two thousand men in one day
Twenty-two thousand souls on their way
Followed their orders and it brought them dismay
They’re all here to stay
Antietam
They were outnumbered two to one
Never stopped until the chaos was done
Long forgotten when we buried the dead
But never forgotten was the blood that they shed
(Chorus)

Drifter
04:42
|
|||
Burning through injected fuel
Across the wasted land
Past defiled by acts so cruel
Power in my hand
Anarchy is time’s rebirth
Primitive rule plaguing the earth
Left behind a shattered life
A memory to defend
Brings his hate upon the world
Survive until the end
Feel the metal grind
Heavy metal nightmare
Petrol we dig to find
No more life to spare
No life
Burn them
Nomad
Wasteland
WEZ
Death race
Captain
Feral
Flesh god
Plot to help the destitute
To free them from the horde
Bringing out their source of life
In secret they have stored
Anarchy is time’s rebirth
Primitive rule plaguing the earth
Left behind a shattered life
A memory to defend
Brings his hate upon the world
Survive until the end
Feel the metal grind
Heavy metal nightmare
Petrol we dig to find
No more life to spare
No life
Burn them
Nomad
Wasteland
WEZ
Death race
Captain
Feral
Flesh god
Pushing through the barricade
Distracting the attack
Left behind this place of siege
Never looking back
Anarchy is time’s rebirth
Primitive rule plaguing the earth
Left behind a shattered life
A memory to defend
Brings his hate upon the world
Survive until the end
(Chorus)
Mad Max

Under Attack
04:22
|
|||
Sirens cut through the air
Calling our men to arms
Then death turns his stare
A large fleet of metal swarms
Calling all fighters and pilots TO TAKE TO THE SKY
Losing our strongholds as people CONTINUE TO DIE
Explosions that turn things to rubble BEFORE YOUR EYES
Hundreds to go, this just might be your last words
We're UNDER ATTACK
UNDER ATTACK
And there's NO TURNING BACK
Under ATTACK
Cut down the birds of steel
Assault for most control
The rush of fear you feel
As the darkness takes your soul
Calling all fighters and pilots TO TAKE TO THE SKY
Losing our strongholds as people CONTINUE TO DIE
Explosions that turn things to rubble BEFORE YOUR EYES
Hundreds to go, this just might be your last words
We're UNDER ATTACK
UNDER ATTACK
And there's NO TURNING BACK
Under ATTACK
A burst cuts through the shield
Spiral to the unknown
Eject, escape the field
Left to return alone
Calling all fighters and pilots TO TAKE TO THE SKY
Losing our strongholds as people CONTINUE TO DIE
Explosions that turn things to rubble BEFORE YOUR EYES
Hundreds to go, this just might be your last words
(Chorus)

Raise the Black
06:53
|
|||
Haze of smoke, steel sings
At the point of a saber, we fight the kings
Each prize could be my last
Destined to die before the mast
She calls you home
The sea
Into your bones
She seeps
Queen Anne’s Revenge
Forty guns
Evils ascent
The skull
A sight of fear we hunt our prey
Striking the colors as their hopes decay
Death on the wind, caught high the sails crack
Closing in, we raise the black
Raise the black
Drifting down, draw my last breath
The taste of salt, the kiss of death
Churning grave, swallowed whole
Davy Jones claims another soul
She calls you home
The sea
Into your bones
She seeps
Queen Anne’s Revenge
Forty guns
Evils ascent
The skull
(Chorus)

Luxury
05:24
|
|||
You make your living off a poor man's work
You run their lives while they go berserk
Your profits grow as does your greed and it feeds into your ego
You shake a hand and you cut a throat
You smile in silence cus their life's a joke
Your crooked ethics write your check for your next black enterprise
What is this quality of LIFE
Corruption fueled by the endless search for lavish wealth
You carve this world with a gluttonous KNIFE
Unyielding sense of narcissistic self-indulgence
But when you're gone where will all this go?
Were you a person they'd be proud to know?
The dead will tell you, only then it shows that...
You can't bring your luxuries
But when you're gone where will all this go?
Were you a person they'd be proud to know?
The dead will tell you, only then it shows that...
You can't bring your luxuries
You cut the funding for your workers health
You make no effort for the commonwealth
Your only motive is capital gains and it maims your sense of life's worth
You line your pockets with your workers' plight
Your business model is your own delight
Your never-ending quest for the next best way to strip humanity
What is this quality of LIFE
Corruption fueled by the endless search for lavish wealth.
You carve this world with a gluttonous KNIFE
Unyielding sense of narcissistic self-indulgence
But when you're gone where will all this go?
Were you a person they'd be proud to know?
The dead will tell you, only then it shows that...
You can't bring your luxuries
But when you're gone where will all this go?
Were you a person they'd be proud to know?
The dead will tell you, only then it shows that...
You can't bring your luxuries
In this world life comes and goes
The weakest link will set you back
Give your life and sign my contract
Your mortality's a risk to assess
Cut your tax for deeper growth
You take the money for your own lifestyle
This mentality has to go
For the people to bring themselves back
