lyrics

"To Suffer The Oppressor"

Ignorant brains drenched in filth
Cheap thieving excuses to cover their guilt
A joke or a smile covers death
Conditioned to eat an animal's milk or its flesh
Land wasted on drugs while the people starve
Slaughterhouses and a mother Earth that's scarred
You're killing more than yourself and your pain's just begun

I'm not afraid of what's right
I'll take any extreme for the sake of all life
With the world headed straight for the end
You say that you care but how much time do you spend?
I'll pick up a gun when the war has begun
Not afraid of the risks, fighting one on one
Peaceful action has failed
It's now or never, open casket or nailed

Alcohol's not a drug or so we're programmed to think
Oppressors of the innocent have taken us to the brink
Well I can see the end and I just can't stand back
When they come for me I'll be braced for attack

Don't tell me it's too late
Revolution is calling and they'll have no escape
Don't tell me it's too late
Or suffer the oppressors' fate!
