1.
Struck down by your deceit The pain you’ve caused, I can’t believe Once our brother, now you’re just a rat What’s done is done, no turning back Hide in the shadows, they won’t save you When karma strikes there’ll be no refuge Face the facts, your time is up There’s no mercy after what you’ve done No mercy for you Face the facts, your time is up There’s no mercy after what you’ve done No longer we’re to be deceived Your existence, a disease Face the facts, your time is up Like a rabid dog, you get put down No mercy for you No second chance You sealed your fate Now you suffer The Cost of Betrayal
2.
The Truth 02:12
Your word doesn’t mean a thing Your bullshit’s out there for all to see I won’t buy into your act Want my respect? Too fucking bad When shit goes wrong you hide in your safe space But we all know your true face I’ve got no time for you or your games Stay away cos I know the truth I see right through you Right through your lies It’s you I despise You fucking coward I’ll never fucking trust you Hide behind your lies when you’re villainised You don’t see the world through a victim’s eyes All this time you could never fool me I’ll never trust you cos I know the truth I see right through you Right through your lies It’s you I despise You fucking coward Stay the fuck away Hide behind your lies when you’re villainised You don’t see the world through a victim’s eyes All this time you could never fool me Stay away
3.
Lost My Way 02:38
Is this all life has for me? It feels like I’ve lost my way I’ve got this feeling that I can’t shake Like I’m wound so tight that I’m gonna break The pressure builds, there’s too much at stake Time weighs me down as the pendulum swings I’ve got this feeling that I might quit I’m all out, there’s nothing else I can give I’ve been trying, I’ve been searching for years My ambition has led nowhere I’ve been trying, I’ve been searching for years My ambition has led nowhere I’ve lost my way Time has stolen the best of me Now my hopes are only dreams So blinded, I can’t see No direction, so I scream Is this all life has for me? It feels like I’ve lost my way I’ve lost my way
4.
Another Foe 02:12
You always had a false sense of pride You play the hero, but we know your kind Always reaching for the upper hand This way of life, you’ll never understand You’ve shown your hand, now I’ll play mine This facade won’t stand the test of time Can’t trust your face, we know what’s true When the mask comes off we’ll see the real you When the mask comes off we’ll see the real The real you At the end of the day You’re just another foe Bitch You’re just another foe When the mask comes off we’ll see the real you At the end of the day, you’re just another foe There’s nothing you could ever say or do We know what’s true, you’re just another foe Just another foe

Looking up for an answer Can you ease all of my doubts? I’ve carried them for too long I’ve seen all the parts of me Broken down through suffering Overwhelmed with what’s inside Disillusioned by this life Can’t make sense of the pain This world is driving me insane There’s no escape from the sad man’s parade Don’t know if I can make it through another fucking day There’s no escape from this misery There’s no escape Still searching for an answer To end all of my doubts I can’t let them take control I’ve seen all the parts of me Broken down through suffering Overwhelmed with what’s inside Disillusioned by this life Overwhelmed with what’s inside Disillusioned by this life Take a look in my mind, won’t like what you find This rage burns deep inside There’s no escape, but still I try Can’t make sense of the pain (I can’t make sense) There’s no escape from the sad man’s parade Don’t know if I can’t make it through another fucking day (There’s no escape, there’s no escape, there’s no escape) There’s no escape

Been stuck in this place so long Clawing for the light but it’s too far gone Can’t help feeling like my time is spent But to waste away I just can’t accept You think you’ve known a life of pain If you could see the shit I’ve seen You’d never make it through the day But you don’t hear me though Broken homes, shattered dreams Sometimes life isn’t as it seems There’s so many stories to tell To relive the past is to stay in Hell Every day it’s a constant fight I’m still clawing my way out to the other side So when I say you don’t know my pain Just know that we could never be the same The sins of the world Pain Never ending Forged in fire Become attuned Harder than you I will never be the same As you The sins of the world Pain Never ending Forged in Fire Become attuned Harder than you

Forged 00:55
8.
Forged in a Fire that burned my soul No way out, can’t pay the toll Sharpen the edge of the blade You can seek forgiveness, but not from me No, not from me All I have is Ill intent for your life Ill intent, you’ll pay the price Ill intent from me to you Ill intent as I slice through Ill intent plagues this life I’ve felt this pain, I know this strife My rage can’t be undone Through revenge I’ll overcome The hour of judgment falls on you I am judge, jury and reaper too Sharpen the edge of the blade You can seek forgiveness, but all I have is Ill intent for your life Ill intent, you’ll pay the price Ill intent from me to you Ill intent as I slice through Ill intent as I slice through I’ll slice through you Yeah, mother fucker Ill intent for your life Ill intent, you’ll pay the price Ill intent from me to you Ill intent as I slice through

Lost myself amongst the chaos An empty shell all out of hope Life’s hard and it just gets harder Forever waiting to expire Another day on this dead-end street Another memory stuck on repeat It all rots me from the inside out Rotting till my time runs out Can you set me free (Set me free) from this reality? Hell is all I see (All I see) In this bleak reality Caught in a cycle I can’t escape Surrounded by those who don’t relate This mind’s a prison, I’m trapped inside Can’t see a way out through these eyes Slowly sinking Deeper down Swarmed by memories of past mistakes Am I at fault or was it fate? This mind’s a prison, I’m trapped inside Can’t see a way out through these eyes Slowly sinking Deeper down Slowly sinking Into Hell Can you set me free (Set me free) from this reality? Hell is all I see (All I see) In this bleak reality
10.
You should know just how I feel After all this time my rage is still so real The flame that burnt my soul Lit this fire under me in a world so cold I don’t know how you lived with yourself Old man, you’re the devil himself I know deep inside my soul The only way out is to burn it all I’ll burn it all down All the parts of me born from your misery I’ll burn them down, right to the fucking ground All the parts of me born from your misery I’ll burn them down, right to the fucking ground Make no mistake, you mean nothing to me Everything you were, I’ll never be The scars you left continue to bleed I never fucking knew you yet my heart still seethes The path you left ain’t no legacy With each step another tragedy I know deep inside my soul The only way out is to burn it all I’ll burn it all down Right to the fucking ground Yeah, yeah I won’t carry what you left behind It ends with me, this is the end of the line I know deep inside my soul The only way out is to burn it all I’ll burn it all down All the parts of me born from your misery I’ll burn them down I’ll burn them down
