Genocide
Metal Resilience: Defying Darkness and Retaliating Pride
Lyrics
Once there was a time, when we were standing
Reflects a time in the past when unity and solidarity were strong.
Back to back against the whole conception
Standing together against an established belief or idea.
Once we had it all the world was our pleasure dome
Expressing a period of abundance and freedom.
Times were changing fast, our dreams were fading
Indicates a shift in circumstances, dreams losing significance due to rapid changes.
Black, the darkness fell on our creation
Symbolizes a bleak and pessimistic phase, marked by darkness.
Time was running out, we were falling one by one
Time slipping away while individuals are experiencing downfall gradually.
We live by honor
Emphasizes living by a code of honor.
We fight for freedom
Commitment to fighting for freedom.
We die but you can't slay our pride
Asserts that pride cannot be vanquished even in death.
Behind these walls, we deem, take hold of the dream
Desire to grasp onto aspirations behind closed doors.
To live our lives as we please Metal Genocide
Expresses the wish to live freely amidst a metal-themed devastation.
No fear, we know the end is near
Fearlessness in acknowledging the imminent end.
One day we will retaliate Genocide
Anticipation of future retribution for the destruction.
Fall, mighty Babylon your might is declining
Symbolic fall of a powerful entity (Babylon) indicating decline.
Fast, your on your knees repent your sinning
Quick descent to submission and remorse.
Fall beyond the realms of hell, we are born again
Implies a resurgence after hitting rock bottom.
We live by honor
Reiteration of living by an honorable code.
We fight for freedom
Reaffirmation of the commitment to fighting for freedom.
We die but you can't slay our pride
Repeated assertion that pride remains unconquerable.
Behind these walls, we deem , take hold of the dream
Emphasizes the hidden desire held by individuals within enclosed spaces.
To live our lives as we please Metal Genocide
Desire to live freely within a metal-themed destruction.
No fear, we know the end is near
Confidence in facing the nearing end without fear.
One day we will retaliate Genocide
Belief in an eventual retaliation against the devastation.
Behind these walls, we deem , take hold of the dream
Reiteration of the longing for freedom and self-determination.
To live our lives as we please Metal Genocide
Continued desire to live amidst metal-themed destruction.
No fear, we know the end is near
Acceptance of the approaching end without fear.
One day we will retaliate Genocide
Confidence in future retaliation against the devastation.
