"Recommended for one life, or choose to be condemned. Chosen to be the one for their care, sworn to stay on this path and follow one way. Louder than thunder! When they pass our mounds, or cross our lands, and fiercer than the wind and rain, when they come to claim. Settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war. (I know we’ll break free, from this strife that’s set forth, and begin our sovereign lives, and begin our sovereign life,) they claim that we’re far too late, that we all must accept our fate, but we'll prove their words wrong, and begin our sovereign life. But the sight of them following him, has lead me to this deathly stare, that’s pushed me far astray. Defend yourself now, you may not survive, but stand brave, hold the line and stay alive. GO! Be the first to bite them in the back, may the second end their attack, and with the third, turn their hate envy upon thee, send up their spirits! Settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war. (I know we’ll break free, from this strife that’s set forth, and begin our sovereign lives, and begin our sovereign life,) they claim that we’re far too late, that we all must accept our fate, but we'll prove their words wrong, and begin our sovereign life. Now as I lay them down to sleep, I pray the lord their soul to keep. Thy seekers watch me through the night, and hunt me down till mornings light. If I should die before this act, blessed the lord my soul to object."

"Now be ready, death does not wait, she’s never fair or considerate, one thing is clear, here you’ll face death’s demise, but you are not prepared, just stand by take a breath, stay calm and welcome death. Without a single thought, they’ll devour your soul, completely whole, with no remorse, just to end your existence, while the light, is trying to save you, from the ones that he’s banished, gnawing at my feet, feeling all of their teeth, as they creep and follow me, unlike those that converge and cultivate. (As she comes fourth, for your life, their little fingers wrapping, constraining me, starting to form your binds.) (Waiting in fear of what will be our end, why keep living life like kings pretend. Find your solace in fear,) find your solace through fear, (So wipe your face of these tears take this chance to find, your solace in fear. And choose my own fate,) one of which welcomes death. Death, each turn that I take they made a crucial mistake, not knowing that I see them first, as they quench and thirst for a feed. Now be ready, death does not wait, she’s never fair or considerate, one thing is clear, here you’ll face death’s demise, but you are not prepared, just stand by take a breath, stay calm and welcome death. You're not prepared! Without a single thought, they’ll devour your soul, completely whole, with no remorse, just to end your existence, while the light, is trying to save you, from the ones that he’s banished, gnawing at my feet, feeling all of their teeth, as they creep and follow me, unlike those that converge and cultivate. (Waiting in fear of what will be our end, why keep living life like kings pretend. Find your solace in fear,) find your solace through fear, (So wipe your face of these tears take this chance to find, your solace in fear. And choose my own fate,) one of which welcomes death. Wake me up! Creators of these night terrors, forcing me into believing, their watching me, stalking me, with all these eyes that keep wandering, their watching me, stalking me, with all these eyes that keep wandering. You’re all afraid, while I smile and embrace, when I see her face, starring death straight in the eye, is the only way I want to die."

"Did you succumb to the vices, or try to claim your false virtues, what did you, commit before you died? Creating our demise. Get, off your, knees, stand, before your king, plea for mercy BOW! Our lives are over, I pray until we are no more. Just hold on to your beliefs, lead us down through the corridors. (Restore your lives for all your sake, or let you drown in these waters) restore our lives, or let us drown (Restore your lives for all your sake, or carry you down to your graves) you can try to submerge us, but we will not suffocate! Knowing that what we've done, with what we can, with our time on this plane, and when all seems lost, we shall fell no shame. Get, off your, knees, stand, before your king, plea for mercy, BOW! Our lives are over, I pray until we are no more, just hold on to your beliefs, lead us down through the corridors. (Restore your lives for all your sake, or let you drown in these waters) restore our lives, or let us drown (Restore your lives for all your sake, or carry you down to your graves) you can try to submerge us, but we will not suffocate! BOW! (I'll guide you true, granting strength and conviction, against the cruel, to pass our extinction.) Help guide us true, through thick and thin, against the cruel, from within. Granting strength and conviction, to pass our extinction, granting strength and conviction, to pass our extinction."

(We are the warlords, we've set sail, welcome to hell, follow the light, promise the land, we are the warlords, follow the light.) We're on our way, from booty bay, we're on our way, from booty bay. We've gathered our arms, we've settled our qualms. Welcome to hell, follow the light, promise the land, we are the warlords. Through the portal of the darkness, to defend the outlands from chaos. Through the portal of the darkness, to defend the outlands from chaos.

"Built upon a tradition of hatred, our purge has been far too belated, while we sit, in a world of ignorance. The heretic crusade, leading out of the fray, the heretic crusade, leading out of the fray. Who will raise your fist, to my hand, or become a mindless pawn of their command? We’ll be more than a brotherhood, and much more than they ever could. (Now are you with me gentlemen, to rejoice with your voice,) or to sit through, in silence, (holding on to a firm grasp,) to vigilance,( holding on to,) vigilance. It's become clear to me, that we’ll never practice equality, and continue all of man’s hypocrisies. Are you with me gentlemen, where we'll we remain free, we won't be silent, against their filth of tyranny. (Now are you with me gentlemen, to rejoice with your voice,) or to sit through, in silence, (holding on to a firm grasp,) to vigilance, holding on to, vigilance. We’ve all become, judgmental pieces, of human flesh, and no one’s appointed you, to be the world’s judge or jury, for in the fathers eyes you were his everything, but he’s left your soul, in these hands, and to me you mean nothing."

"These demons above, circle the air, inducing this nightmare, by encouraging me to guzzle, from this bottle and inhaling all this smoke, witnessing my life pass by in a blur, unable to comprehend any word, I can't even say the name of my son. Consuming and abusing myself tonight, and as each minute passes by, I get closer to the light, you've allowed me to repeat this onslaught, watch as I lay in shame and distraught. (Not a brother of mine, just another waste of time, the difference between you and I,) is that you weren't there when I almost died, some friend you were, (some friend you were,) I’ll keep my enemies even closer. GO! GO! GO! My stomach turns like a knife that’s ripping away at my abdomen, I won’t give in, this can’t be my end, I clasp, as I grasp for my last breath , this won't be my death, I clasp, as I grasp for my last breath, this won't be my death, I can’t let this become my suicide, no I can’t let this be my suicide, because you sat still as you cried, too negligent to stay by my side, turn your back, let me die, I can't let this become my suicide, watch as I lay in shame and despise. Not a brother of mine, just another waste of time, the difference between you and I, is that you weren't there when I almost died, some friend you were. Consuming and abusing myself tonight, and as each minute passes by, I get closer to the light, you've allowed me to repeat this onslaught, watch as I lay in shame and distraught. (Not a brother of mine just another waste of time, the difference between you and I,) is that you weren't there when I almost died, (some friend you were,) I’ll keep my enemies even closer. The difference between you and I, is that you weren't there when I almost died, (not a brother of mine just another waste of time, the difference between you and I,) is that you weren't there when I almost died. Friends and family, mean nothing to me, without a presence, don’t waste your breath, ‘cause I know what’s underneath."
