[Intro]
Zola
Zola
Zola schukada
*repeats*
[Pre-verse]
The time has finally come
A three day solstice
Without any sun
[Verse]
You must conceive me
Or you cannot believe me
But now that I'm breathing
It takes your breath away
To see me, to smell me
To feel me, to fill me
You created
This abomination
[Pre-chorus]
Feed on the
Ones who feed
[Chorus]
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
Zola schukada
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
Zola schukada
[Pre-verse]
Your torment from the past
The pain we went through
It tipped our hourglass
[Verse]
See me, believe me
My being is disgusting
Pulsing while bleeding
A dead man alive
The horror, the sickness
The spreading, the judgment
I have seen the light
I consumed it
[Pre-chorus]
Feed on the
Ones who breathe
[Chorus]
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
Zola schukada
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
Zola schukada
[Guitar solo: X]
[Chorus]
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
Zola schukada
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
(Zola) Rectify us
Zola schukada
[Outro]
Rectify the undead (Zola)
Rectify the undead (Zola)
Rectify the undead (Zola)
Rectify the undead (Zola schukada)
Rectify the undead (Zola)
Rectify the undead (Zola)
Rectify the undead (Zola)
(Zola schukada)

Purest Momentum

[Verse]
I discovered a place locked inside of my mind
Where I can taste new sounds, and I'm no longer blind
Now I have the power to shatter every rule
And one deep breath is my strongest fuel
I gotta find a way to keep my movements in sync
So now I'm treating every trail like the water I drink
I can see why it's against the law
'Cause no one can enslave me now that I'm a god
[Pre-chorus]
(Straight to the blood!)
You said it kills, yet I'm not dead, nor do I sin
(Straight to the blood!)
You said it hurts, I feel no pain, so try again
(Straight to the blood!)
You oughta know your cozened lies are plain to see
(Straight to the blood!)
So give it a rest, it's for the best
[Chorus]
'Cause you'll never CHANGE ME!
You'll never CHANGE ME!
You've deafened my ears and tried to feed me your fears
Now that I'm in the clear, you're all afraid of me
[Verse]
(Fix me)
My can of heat tastes nectar sweet, but smells like venom
(Fix me)
Takes more and more till I absorb the new me
(Fix me)
Can't put to waste a single taste of my momentum
(Fix me)
Without a line, I wear a broken mind
Fix me!
Come on and fix me!
Why can't you fix me?
Looks like I'm complete
For now...
[Pre-chorus]
(Straight to the blood!)
You said it kills, yet I'm not dead, nor do I sin
(Straight to the blood!)
You said it hurts, you know you're not gonna win
(Straight to the blood!)
You oughta know, your cozened lies are plain to see
(Straight to the blood!)
So give it a rest, it's for the best
[Chorus]
'Cause you'll never CHANGE ME!
You'll never CHANGE ME!
You've deafened my ears and tried to feed me your fears
Now that I'm in the clear, you're all afraid of me
You'll never CHANGE ME!
You'll never CHANGE ME!
I still have my soul, so who says I've lost control?
If you find me unwhole, then stay away from me
[Drum solo: Daniel Justo-Sanchez]
[Build-up]
Can't slow down
Can't slow down
Can't slow down
Can't slow down
Can't slow down (I have lost control, I have lost control)
Can't slow down (I have lost control, now I'm gone)
Can't slow down (I have lost control, I have lost control)
Can't slow down (I have lost control, now I'm gone)
Can't slow down! (I've lost all control)
Can't slow down! (I've lost all control)
Can't slow down! (I've lost all control)
NOOOOOOOOO! (Now I'm gone)
[Bridge]
How could I see where my life would leave me
When I lost my freedom to choose?
Who would tell me how to come back safely
If we've all been compromised to lose?
I swore it was easy, not one soul could seize me
Now it's me who's being used
But I don't
Want it
Anymore!
[Breakdown]
(Aaaaaaaah)
(Aaaaaaaah)
(Aaaaaaaah)
(Aaaaaaaah)
I'm living all my darkest nightmares
While I'm open eyed
(Aaaaaaaah)
I'm forced to face my fears each day with
Both of my hands tied
(Aaaaaaaah)
I'm all alone to brace this struggle
Blowing out my light
(Aaaaaaaah)
But I'm not going down without
Putting up a fight
(Aaaaaaaah)
[Break]
I'm down to my last breath
I'm down to my last breath
I'm down to my last breath
I'm down to my last BREATH!

Do It Yourself
05:50
|

[Verse]
Now who I am
Now who I am don't matter
Now who I am don't matter
No one should care
[Interlude]
I walk through time
Completely blind
'Cause no one's there to teach me
I join the chain
Within my lane
And never gaze beneath me
[Verse]
And so I wait
And so I wait for no one
I don't predict the future
And the past is over
[Pre-chorus]
I walk through time
Completely blind
'Cause no one's there to teach me
I join the chain
Within my lane
And never gaze...
[Chorus]
Through the pain and the hate
It takes everything that I got just to breathe
And I know each time I fall
No one picks me up better than me
[Verse]
The seeds I've sown
I've grown for me on my own
And they only grow for those
Who can work it all out alone
[Pre-chorus]
I walk through time
Completely blind
'Cause no one's there to teach me
I join the chain
Within my lane
And never gaze...
[Chorus]
Through the pain
And the hate
It takes everything that I got just to breathe
And I know
Each time I fall
No one picks me up better than me
I don't need help, I'll do it myself
You've no control till you do it yourself
I don't need help, I'll do it myself
You've no control till you do it yourself
{Vyrn Ly Myronym Avyr}
{Do It Yourself}
[Verse]
A day may come
When no one cares about me
But I just want what it takes
To carry on alone
[Pre-chorus]
I walk through time
Completely blind
'Cause no one's there to teach me
I board the dock
On my own clock
And never gaze...
[Chorus]
Through the pain
And the hate
It takes everything that I got just to breathe
And I know
Each time I fall
No one picks me up better than me
I don't need help, I'll do it myself
You've no control till you do it yourself
I don't need help, I'll do it myself
You've no control till you do it yourself

[Verse]
Don't sit inside a dream
Don't seek what you don't need
Don't play it safe until your day arrives
It might weigh on your mind
You might still be behind
But this pain is what it means to be alive
[Pre-chorus]
Give me a reason
It's getting late
Your clock's not sleeping
Are you awake?
[Chorus]
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Your life's a fight that never ends
So break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
If you're not failing then you'll never win
Now you've laid eyes on the outside
[Verse]
Life is happening now
But you're still stuck on the ground
If you let Armageddon take you
You'll still be around, left in the dust
No one's gonna hold your hand (so keep moving)
And no one's gonna understand (so keep moving)
'Cause winning is a life-long plan (so keep moving)
And rivers don't remember old dams!
[Pre-chorus]
Give me an answer
Don't waste away
This world is changing
We cannot stay
[Chorus]
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Your life's a fight that never ends
So break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off your chain! (I'm not a slave!)
If you're not failing then you'll never win
Now you've advanced to the outside
[Breakdown]
I am
Your hopeless urge
Your weaknesses
Everything that you are!!
(Just get away from me)
(Just get away from me)
Feed me
Your energy
Every single day
Until the end of time!!
(Just get away from me)
(Just get away)
Broken
And bolted to the grind
The pressure
Has preyed upon your mind
So get up
Just try again
Don't let it win
I don't care if it's hurting
Right now
Don't put it off
No matter what
Last chance to take control!
(JUST GET AWAY!!)
[Bridge]
I crossed out the line
And inherently flawed design
I replaced it with mine
'Cause I plan to amount this time
[Guitar solo: Leyland Reid]
[Bridge]
Cast doubt to the fray
Live your life in your own way
Ignore all that they say
And try living today
[Guitar solo: X]
[Post-verse]
Harder
It only becomes harder
It dares you to push farther
Until you accept it you're hurting yourself
Faster
In time it'll come to you faster
As long as you're the adapter
Are you gonna give up now?
HELL NO!
Fight
'Cause you've come too far
To watch it go
Spiraling out of control
You are the reaper
You are the gate keeper
Is there anything else
You'd rather do?!
[Post-pre-chorus]
It's in your hands
It's in your hands now
It's in your hands
Don't let it go
[Chorus]
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Break off the chain! (I'm not a slave!)
Do it yourself!

{What Do You Think This Is (A Game)}
[Intro]
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
[Verse]
Now it's time
To sit upon the throne
As I read the words of God
With rifle in my hand
My words are law
And those of you accused
Come buy your place in Heaven or be sent back to Hell!
[Pre-chorus]
I sold the world for free
And replaced it with my own
I'd trade all of you for me
And rule my kingdom all alone
[Chorus]
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
[Guitar solo: X]
[Verse]
Who gave churches a voice?
And who gave bigots jobs?
Who gave chauvinism a fighting chance at all?
I'm an outcast in my own country
But I'd rather kill you than share it
And I justify it by dehumanizing you scum
'Cause we're not alike at all
[Pre-chorus]
I sold the world for free
And replaced it with my own
I'd trade all of you for me
And live the glory all alone
[Chorus]
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
[Guitar solo: X]
[Build-up]
Does it hurt to hear the truth?
Do you fear what you do not understand?
Well you can hate us all you want
'Cause it won't change anything!
All you've done is made it easier to be
Sorted into the herds of sheep that you are!
The caves of ignorance that are devised to turn
A profit from your anger, and build careers
From your readily manipulated submission!
We will never apologize for confronting your hypocrisy!
If you won't listen now, then you won't be prepared to act
Until it's already far too late!
Welcome to the Fourth Reich!
[Break]
What do you think this is? (A GAME!)
[Verse]
So what if all our dreams are dead
And everybody's broke? (OOOH!)
Who cares that the workers paid
For the ones who never spoke? (OOOH!)
Too high to see how bad it got
Too scared to form a single thought
But they never change
So let's take them for a joke
(YOU SEE US LAUGHING BOY?!?)
[Interlude]
I sold the world for free
And let it fester on its own
I'd trade all of you for me
And leave my problems all alone
[Bridge]
I'm here for me, I'm not here for you
I'm just raking in the cash
(I want it) Now!
(I want it) Now!
(I want it) I will not wait anymore!
[Guitar solo: X]
[Bridge]
What's the point of it?
I'm not here to satisfy you at all
(I want it) Now!
(I want it) Now!
(I want it) NOW!
[Guitar solo: X]
[Bridge]
Now my part is done
It's time for everyone else to do theirs
(I want it) Now!
(I want it) Now!
(I want it) I should be much better of than this!
[Guitar solo: X]
[Outro]
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real
It's time to stop faking and time to get real

[Verse]
Dear diary
There's not much time left
I just woke up inside a room I've never seen
They think it's me
I didn't do it
But God if this is true
There must be something wrong with me
There are voices in my head
Telling me I've murdered
I can't remember, but I fear it might be true
I can't keep from screaming
I'm constantly hungover
It feels like deep down inside
There's something taking over
[Pre-chorus]
It's coming back
It's coming back
It's coming back
Why can't I fight it?
It's coming back
It's coming back
It's coming back
And now I'm buried
[Chorus]
(Hold on, it's still not too late)
KILL THEM ALL, LEAVE NONE BEHIND
THEN HIT THE FAN WITH WHAT IS LEFT!
(Hold on my child, don't let it take you)
THRUST THEIR BODIES BACK AND FORTH
TILL ALL THEIR GUTS SPLATTER THE ROOM!
(Hold on, it's trying to take your place)
HANG THEM BY A CEILING FAN
THEN WATCH THEM TILL THEIR NOOSES GIVE!
(Keep fighting off, or else your mind will rot)
LET THEIR CORPSES ROOOOOOOOT!!
[Verse]
Dear diary
I can't believe this
I woke up to find a dead man at my feet
What could this mean?
Could I have done this?
Why would I kill a man I could not ever meet?
I cannot deny this when it's all so clear
The pain of having no control is now my biggest fear
How did I contract this?
Is there any remedy?
How can someone coexist
When they're their own worst enemy?
[Pre-chorus]
It's coming back
It's coming back
It's coming back
Why can't I fight it?
It's coming back
It's coming back
It's coming back
And now I'm buried
[Chorus]
(Hold on, it's still not too late)
KILL THEM ALL, LEAVE NONE BEHIND
THEN HIT THE FAN WITH WHAT IS LEFT!
(Hold on my child, don't let it take you)
THRUST THEIR BODIES BACK AND FORTH
TILL ALL THEIR GUTS SPLATTER THE ROOM!
(Hold on, it's trying to take your place)
HANG THEM BY A CEILING FAN
THEN WATCH THEM TILL THEIR NOOSES GIVE!
(Keep fighting off, or else your mind will rot)
LET THEIR CORPSES ROT!
[Guitar solo: X]
[Bridge]
You know, all I ever wanted was
A little hospitality
I can't control the beast inside of me
Unless I kill the body
You know, I never wanted to die
But now there's no use turning back
Even if I could go back in time
I'd make the same mistakes
This is the last time I will write in this
Tomorrow is my final day
No one believes me when I tell the truth
But I don't know truth anyway
This is the only way to silence it
A sacrifice I won't regret
Let's hope I keep together long enough
Just a couple hours left
[Chorus]
KILL THEM ALL, LEAVE NONE BEHIND
THEN HIT THE FAN WITH WHAT IS LEFT!
(I'm sorry child, I could not save you)
THRUST THEIR BODIES BACK AND FORTH
TILL ALL THEIR GUTS SPLATTER THE ROOM!
(It has you to drain you of all you've got)
HANG THEM BY A CEILING FAN
THEN WATCH THEM TILL THEIR NOOSES GIVE!
(Just bleed it out, and let its body rot)
LET THEIR CORPSES ROOOOOOOOT!!

[Verse]
One more down
Too many more to go
You've murdered countless on you godforsaken throne
One more round
Let's play the guessing game
Make one a richer man, and cast one in the flames
[Interlude]
TO THE CHAIR!!
[Verse]
You placed the bets over
Both of their skin color
You let the killer loose
And dropped the helpless one
[Pre-chorus]
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (court is adjourned!)
[Chorus]
I am the God of your soul
And I can take it away
So put your trust in me
I'll give you honesty
And it will bury you
With the rest of my prey
[Verse]
Shame on me!
My wallet weighs the least
I'm already ruined if my funds have not increased
Shame on he!
Who doesn't even know
It takes a millionaire to circumvent death row
[Interlude]
TO THE CHAIR!!!
[Verse]
Months after his last case
The acquitted stole third base
A suspect once again
Now pour the money in
[Pre-chorus]
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (send the next one in)
Guilty (court is adjourned!)
[Chorus]
I am the God of your soul
And I can take it away
So put your trust in me
I'll give you honesty
And it will bury you
With the rest of my prey
[Dueling guitar solos: Leyland Reid / X]
[Breakdown]
You sent away our mothers and fathers
To undeserving graves
Your lies don't just affect your victims
In your house no one's safe
[Build-up]
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage
Unlock our cage

Unlock our cage!
Unlock our cage!
Unlock our cage!
Unlock our cage!
Unlock our cage! (send the next one in)
Unlock our cage! (send the next one in)
Unlock our cage! (send the next one in)
Unlock our cage! (court is adjourned!)
[Chorus]
I'm still the God of your soul
And I don't care who is right
Your land of free is mine
The truth is my design
And I won't hesitate
To burn out your light

[Verse]
Rise 'n' shine (rise 'n' shine)
Something woke me up tonight
What's that noise? (what's that noise?)
Could it be? That can't be right
Check the blinds (lift the blinds)
Look up high only to find
War machines (war machines)
Maybe I'm still dreaming
[Verse]
Look below (look below)
Panic sweeping through the roads
What's that smell? (what's that smell?)
Never smelled that scent before
Check the halls (check the halls)
Why are there holes through the walls?
Body parts (body parts)
THIS IS NOT A DREAM!!
[Pre-chorus]
IT'S COMING TOWARDS US WAY TOO FAST!!!
BURNT CORPSES EVERYWHERE I LOOK!!!
Since the dawn of time
Men would claim our lives
And I can see the end of mine
[Chorus]
Look to the skies (look to the skies)
Believe your eyes (believe your eyes)
It's up to you to survive through the night
And remember the night that the sky rained...
[Verse]
As a child
I have always wondered what it sounded like
Hearing bombs drop through the sky
Just so I'd
Recognize a deadly sign
Now I wonder
WHAT IF I JUST DIE!?!
[Pre-chorus]
THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN AGAIN!!!
PAVEMENT EXPLODING IN MY FACE!!!
Since the dawn of time
Men would claim our lives
And I can see the end of mine
[Chorus]
Look to the skies (look to the skies)
Believe your eyes (run for your lives)
It's up to you to survive through the night
And remember the night that the sky rained NUKES!
[Breakdown]
(Yn du kurt aza, tyy xun du sal gyybrodyn)
[Guitar solo: X]
[Bridge]
I have left my body behind
Among the ashes below
And now it pains me to think I may never return
But I have not left the Earth
It doesn't make sense to me
Instead I'm drifting along like I'm one with the breeze
I see the scars in the sky
I see the dead on the ground
And now I finally realize what's going on
It's gonna happen again
It's gonna happen again
It's gonna happen again, and again, and again

[Verse]
I can't remember the last time I lived
You wasted the love I was desperate to give
My soul's left to wither and all that remains
This exoskeleton that's beaten to grain
Why... must I suffer?
I... wish I could be tougher
Please... forgive me of sin
But tell me, if God loves me, why won't this end?
[Guitar solo: X]
[Verse]
Fed to survive, but deprived of a life
Long time ago, it flashed before my eyes
Senseless and tortured, my reason is pain
You are an angel, and I'm but a stain
Why... am I so ugly?
I... internally bleed
I... want to touch the sun
But if I deserve this, then what have I done?
[Guitar solo: X]
[Breakdown]
I have had it with this life
It's time to let it go
All the meaning has been drained
And there's nowhere left to go
So farewell to the living
And those I used to love
Oh mama! Mama!
I will join you from above!
[Bridge]
Senses gone numb
Pulse is a drum
Could this be done?
Deny
Yes, I deny
First step to die
Fight and I fly
Mad at the Lord
Mad at the world
Madness unfurl
Anger
Tear through the fur
Bite at the flesh
Endlessly scream
Help me survive
Keep me alive
Just one last try
Bargain
Praying won't work
Faith does not help
I can't turn back
Why is it me?
Why target me?
Why always me?
Despair
Why even try?
Just let me die
Turn my nose dry
[Break]
Die!
Accept
Accept
Accept
I accept!
[Guitar solo: X]
[Outro]
Warm glow
A warm glow draws me in
Warm glow
Pulls me towards the light
Warm glow
A warm glow draws me in
Warm glow
Pulls me towards the light
