1. The Monsters Within
Welcome to the world of violence,
hear the chants of hate,
where all anger and confusion
mixed down all this way.
Society won't take the blame
on these brutal acts.
Burning people, torture, killing,
what else can I say?
Blood is spilled on the ground,
body laid down in weakness.
They won't hear his pleading
when they pour the gasoline.
Paid in full for a little crime,
man, he's been kicked and beaten.
No more chance to escape,
just wait for his last breath.
Burn! Die!
Something sure must happen
if law is not functioning.
When the crimes are on the top,
none can take it any longer,
wilder than defined "anarchy".
"You cops, stay away!
We are kings of own neighbourhood,
to protect and to kill!"
Blood is spilled on the ground,
body laid down in weakness.
They won't hear his pleading
when they pour the gasoline.
Paid in full for a little crime,
man, he's been kicked and beaten.
No more chance to escape,
just wait for his last breath.
Burn! Die!
Worse than the animal,
evil is the nature of man.
Driven by sadistic plans of action,
can we save ourselves?
There is no one righteous, not even one...
what should we do to take away
all these monsters within?
2. Crave For Solid Ground
It's just another extraction of sense,
watering the troubles of order
to invert the truth.
Build the empire upon the sand,
more lies behind this game, internal hollow.
In this life, anything can go too far.
All shall die.
See how long it could stand on there
with gold that won't be forever last.
Feel the time's running on and on,
all those have done would be in vain.
It could have been better
when it comes from the truth.
Earning every penny out of sweat and tears,
above the solid ground,
those walls will stand still.
The Rock makes it stronger, up against the winds.
In this life, reality tests it all.
one shall live.
See which one will survive at last...
one who built it upon the rock or sand?
When these rain, floods and winds come in,
who shall live and who shall die?
So it's life for those who follow the Truth.
Salvation.
3. Mean Attraction
Televisions, breaking news popped out that night:
another explosion's attacked the city again.
Hospitals were filled with innocent victims,
death tolls are high, but none would down in fear.
Mean attraction, horror in sight,
spreading the terrors, to kill was not the mission.
But yet only death appears at the frontline.
What lies ahead, a situational chaos?
How far they've succeded, none exactly knows.
Mean attraction, terror in sight,
human, the only species
with mass-murder capability.
Seething with disconcent,
political visions to obscure resolutions.
What reasons that stimulate madness
out of these poor brains?
Purpose never reached, when all become a part
of business as usual.
4. Like There's No Other Way To Go
"What life means to you, my friend?"
A question asked to everyone I know.
It was so simple but carries the weight of mind,
as no one wants to know and even cares about.
Newspapers cover the same stuff everyday:
wars, crimes, disasters, problems still exist
as seen on TV and on Internet.
That costs our time with all those mortal affairs,
wondering why we should be here
surrounded by the literal horrors.
Should we accept this stagnant situation?
Like there's no other way to go,
many have found their ways to live,
creating philosophical types of reactions.
Realize it's only counter-concepts,
none would give a real solution.
Knowledge that comes from these crippled minds:
wars, crimes, disasters, problems still exist.
Register names on "club of ignorance",
partake in the state of confusion
the hearts that have been pierced from both sides...
None shall last forever, not even this life,
for we brought nothing into this world,
we cannot take anything out of the world.
Let's think about tomorrow, seek another day,
heading to the one world beyond, keep the minds free.
5. Behind Closed Doors
It feels like our world
has been pushed to the edge
where beauty is being exploited
without the sense or respect.
Billions are doing theirs, never expecting the things
that would manifest themselves in a time to come.
With my eyes, I see you and your world is going down,
the colors fade away as black replaces all.
With my eyes, I see you and your world is going down,
images fade away as death replaces all.
Put the shadow in its place
as it supposed to appear.
The black shades are here beside us
as reflections of ours
when there is a light against
the antithesis of man-made knowledge.
From the void that comes through our optimisms,
we've learned to deny the potential excess,
where "why" is taboo and "how" is hyped.
Drifting from our very own pitiful existence,
minds that create an illusion of accomplishment.
Back from the tombs, the tragedy defines itself,
leading the ways to nowhere, where death is at the end!
With my eyes, I see you and your world is going down,
the colors fade away as black replaces all.
With my eyes, I see you and your world is going down,
images fade away as death replaces all.
A dismal portrait of mortal life,
betrayal of mankind's existence.
So many blind ambitions
with false motivations and false directions.
Caught in a cold confusion,
bearing all the lies of men.
I wish I could see my future life,
to look behind all these seemingly closed doors.
Illuminate me with true divine light,
O owner of the key to the world beyond...
6. After The Storm
Shame on me, now I'm standing alone
when I turn my face far behind
the shadow of yesteryear's sighs.
Gradually his shape fades,
degrades under the law of time,
swallowed by the book of memories.
Forgive me for what I've committed.
Many times I fly, in the light, in the dark.
I just did it pointlessly,
reaching for something,
so distant...so alone.
Dreaming for another touch, I fly so high,
I just let myself falling,
wildly drifting on the air.
Marching the sounds of my inner ill,
hear the weeping of the bleeder...shout!
Crawls...reveals...this drowning hope here beneath.
Many times I give my mind a crown and lay down,
stiff unmoved and yet posed a dying mortal flesh.
Piercing the limits, stretch upon my hollow painted nest,
keep on questioning my daily breath...what a day!
No matter how intense I strike,
the anger still here and breed inside.
I hate myself, hating the light,
this pain I feel kills me outright.
What should I do to break this chain?
It's only you, my only strength to fight,
facing my mirrors of ideal reality.
Morning's pride arrives, enter my two wounded eyes,
brings her another ugliest blazing wrath.
Will I keep survive under this earth burning sun?
Why can't I seize the dusk,
the only chance I give my misery eulogy?
Dear Lord, I chocked by the plans of Thee.
Severely amazed, torture in doubt,
questions I've drawn, left and forgotten,
I pass the answers, I let my light dimmed.
7. Given Words
Far from this age,
from the beginning of all creation,
it has been an order...
when or where we will be called to exist and to demise.
All is in control but not ours,
the law, free will, I give you...
know what it means: "The highest creation"
given to us freedom and authority,
wisdom and knowledge, and enough brain
to think and to learn, to grow with self-sufficient.
The law, free will, I give you,
won't you realize of your existence?
All is the best for you,
now as became the fallen ones,
you are unable to think even for yourselves.
How can you start to doubt Me in the minds?
With your hearts that turn to stone,
I can understand what pains you feel away from My presence.
I never blame you for your fragile minds,
now I give you My Word to know Me easier.
Words that fit to the corrupted
Words that fit to the sick
Words that fit to the disabled
Words that fit to those who doubt
Words that fit to the ignorant
Words that fit to the weak
Words that fit to the arrogant
Words that fit to all of us.
8. Militia Christi
Erosions of minds, bodies, and souls...
this world's standard contaminate the life.
Follow the material, philosophical,
and the religious utopias.
Enslaved by the darkness, visions become absurd,
leading to a path of death where no one shall reign.
Only regret and endless pain that exist.
Overcome your illusions, join war against the powers,
against principalities, spiritual rulers of this world.
The freedom has been proclaimed,
a victory through the bloodshed
by the strength of His power and might.
No one else shall claim to be the winner.
The Truth is here for the living,
let it become our influence
and used as the armor of battle.
Now, brutally we declare the war!
Come to our reality, join war against the powers,
against the principalities,
spiritual rulers of this world.
Militia Christi,
breaking the rules and traditions
that kept us all in chains of ritualistic vain.
Forever change the essence of religions,
love is the new law for all mankind.
The Truth is here for the living,
let it become our influence,
and used as the armor of battle.
Now, brutally we declare the war!
9. The Painful Experience
Would you like to share the pain with Me?
Experience those darkest moments I once had.
You have bcome a part of Me and I'm inside you,
reflecting all of Myself through this suffering.
With pain, I have gained a victory over your death,
entered the darkest realm to give a light for you.
I was here, born as "a loser" in the eyes of the world,
bitterness that was taken, flesh that was torn.
Would you like to feel the pain that I felt?
Experience those darkest moments I once had.
If you said that you love Me and believe in Me,
won't you leave your glory and carry your cross with Me?
The wound, the blood, the torture,
the mockery, the humiliation,
entered the darkest hell to give a light for you.
I was here, hanging on a tree of hate and disgust,
bitterness that was taken, blood that was spilled.
Does it really matter now?
In this age of technology,
will you forget all My pain
and refuse your suffering?
A cross to take, your cross to take.
Suffer with Me,
suffer with Me...
