Graveborn: Unveiling the Decimation of Society
Lyrics
(This is decimation)
This represents a severe reduction or destruction.
(Of the human condition)
It signifies the destruction of the fundamental nature of humanity.
(This is annihilation spawned)
This is the complete obliteration that has originated from our achievements.
(From our fruition)
Arising from what we have produced or accomplished.
Pretend you're blind watch people die you can't unsee corruption
Imagine being unable to see but witnessing the undeniable decay and moral degradation.
Malevolence
Intentional harm or evil, defending what's morally offensive.
Defending the obscene
Protecting what's shockingly wrong or offensive.
They cower back into the holes in which they came from
Those responsible retreat to where they came from when faced with opposition.
Injustice basking in the lies that you are told
Wrongdoing thrives in the lies fed to you.
So swing your guillotine we won't go down alone
Facing consequences collectively rather than succumbing alone.
Within our history there is tautness set in stone
Our past mistakes are deeply ingrained and unchangeable.
Put us on trial and strip us of our life
Being judged and deprived of life unjustly.
While your vindictive system punishes innocent for strife
A punitive system punishes innocent people for others' troubles.
This is decimation
A repetition of severe reduction or destruction.
Of the human condition
Again, the destruction of the essence of humanity.
This is annihilation spawned
Same obliteration emerging from our achievements.
From our fruition
Referencing being born into a dire situation or environment.
Graveborn
A term representing those born into a situation of division, leading to their demise.
Division's prominent and it takes part in our demise
Division plays a significant role in our downfall.
Though surrounded by darkness, no less keen are their eyes
Even when surrounded by darkness, people remain perceptive and aware.
Seeing my brothers and sisters drown in plagues of the flies
Witnessing loved ones suffering while intending to protect oneself from the same fate.
I'll be there making sure that I'm the only one who dies
A pledge to ensure personal sacrifice instead of seeing others suffer.
This is a world on fire
Portrayal of a world engulfed in chaos and turmoil.
They need a reason to enslave
People require justification to oppress others.
This is a revolution
It's a call for radical change or uprising against the existing system.
We were born in our graves
Metaphorically, born into a world filled with struggle and difficulty.
(We were born in our graves)
(Repeated line) Reinforces the idea of being born into a challenging existence.
All my allies betrayed me
Being abandoned or let down by those one trusted.
When the hammer came striking down
Feeling betrayed when faced with a sudden and forceful blow.
We weren't born to carry death on our backs
We weren't meant to carry the weight of death and destruction.
While ignorance evades all the facts
Ignorance prevails despite the presence of factual information.
There is no peacefulness in sovereignty
No tranquility exists in absolute power and control.
The man with no face speaks hate
An unidentified figure spreads hate and malice.
To every soul that breathes a different way than him
Targeting anyone who dares to think or live differently.
While spilling all the principles that he believes upon this youth
Forcing beliefs onto the younger generation while contradicting their own principles.
Do you feel the decimation?
Sensory perception of the severe reduction or destruction occurring.
It's all coming to an end
Recognition that everything is reaching its conclusion.
Do you feel the revelation?
The feeling of understanding or realization dawning upon discovering an enemy in disguise.
From an enemy posing as your friend
An enemy camouflaged as a friend, ultimately revealing true intentions.
