SURVIVE


Enter the beast enter the lamb What was will be See violently we persist against the past But forget the construct The madness of a lesson learned Its lost in time Now doomed without recourse We optimize uncertainty And claim righteous understanding Inedibly closing the gap to our own destruction. The only certainty in life is death So I scream to the masses enter the coliseum and find your lion But know in killing him you kill yourself Survive become the shepherd not of lions but of men Exhaust the rouse When sheep eat lions and men fall prey to there history.
