Welcome to the nightmare Below Look around don’t you recognize this place? This is the world of your mistakes Don’t fight that feeling they say seeing is believing And there are things down here you would not believe You know you wronged me far too many times And you told me a thousand sordid lies You stabbed me in the back to try to bury your mistakes Then dumped me to the street in the hope I’d die But there’s one thing that you did not count upon There are many more down here just like me We have built this place together a world of pain here in the nether To reek our vengeance on the fools that sent us here So do your worst there is no counter for this curse This is the place that you fear That place you sent me just to rot away the days And I hope that you’re dissatisfied with your stay Welcome to the nightmare Below So save your breath no ones listening to your lies You’re the very thing that we despise We’ve heard it all before and got no patience anymore It was just a matter of time We’ve gotten wise You know you wronged me far too many times and you told me a thousand sordid lies We learned a hard mistake Never trust a useless fake Cause we know now what your kind is truly like All you ignorant liars didn’t count upon this fact There are many more down here just like me We have built this place together A world of pain down in the nether To reek our vengeance on the fools that put us here We refused to do your twisted bidding We refused to be your slaves There is no excuse for what you’ve done You never spared a single one All your evil schemes they stopped nothing Only delaying what was coming to pass And now the time has come for you to pay A man chooses A slave obeys I told you that you didn’t want to go down this road This is payback for every life that you stole You took our time from us while poisoning the young ones They call me Mr B And on the end of this drill will be your skull - fucked Bring them to me I am I am the reckoning We have erased you And all the evil that you’ve done We will erase you all To save the little ones We have erased you To save the little ones For you I am the reckoning

Fuck Your World 05:47

Fuck Fuck your world We've made our own So Fuck Fuck your world They pretend to feel And ignore the real Couldn’t break us So they tried kill us all If there’s one thing that I’ve learned in this life You cannot trust these blood sucking parasites They have tried But they failed just the same Sent their best But this energy that we bring can’t be contained We are more than they’ll ever hope to know And now they rot from the judgement that they faced deep down below Burn them all I want to swim in the ashes Til we’ve regained our souls Let it rain Let the ashes fall from the skies above Let it rain We’ve been dwelling in the dark here for far too long Unlike them we remember where we came from We are the ones that they sent to the dark Out of sight out of mind We said we’d take our lives back Wed claim em in full And there’ll be nothing they can do all those little hypo-critic fools Live strong, together as one And the best that they could do was run But it didn’t help Couldn't stop the inevitable Their fate was sealed The day that they crossed/wronged us all They were warned And as always they didn’t listen to a single word So we defied them We refused to obey to the rules of fools Or To their sick depraved lack of conscience Void of morality / No moral values We faced the best that they could send to try to silence all of us All laid to rest in the end They tried to bury us and blame us for their in-capabilities Parasitic scum Living out their fantasies in their delusional minds Like the blind leading the blind Burn them all I want to swim in the ashes Til we’ve regained our souls Let it rain Let the ashes fall from the skies above Let it rain Til it blocks out the pain I have made myself into the physical embodiment of our vengeance We have watched as they corrupted the young from the depths of the nether realm And they paid with their lives Fuck Fuck your world We've made our own So Fuck Fuck your world Let them feed Returned to the sea We have damned them to their eternal punishment Returned to the sea

Let the ocean feed upon their ashes So the cycle repeats Til there’s nothing left to claim from their meat Our disdain for their existence only strengthened the result We made sure that all their plans ground to a halt If this is what they wanted Then they’ve reaped everything they’ve sown Such foolish ignorant sheep With all of their poisons of control They had thought that they knew fear Tried to manipulate our minds Til they met this thing That the darkness sent To break everything it finds So my friends will you walk with me Down this path that we’ve paved together We refused to be their victims of deceit All the lies that they tried to chain to us Hear us now We refuse to obey We will not bow To your malicious intents And their dissent Was the product of their undoing Feeding on the lives of the innocent as they crawled Begging for their suffering to end But the young ones They found no mercy from their captors And we Showed no mercy In kind To all of their evil that Bound us Shackled to the poisons that they forced upon us all Living inside of this hell for too long Dependant Addicts of the pain in this cold dark infinity Mentally conditioned for the worst That this bucket had to offer Vengeance The Only remedy to abate all the insanity Ended With the sound From this world deep underground The payment Measured by displeasure on the ledger of disdain Left to pay their debt with their lives Taken willingly There is always a lighthouse There is always a man There is always a city This was always their plan So we brought it to an end Find the Power Within Set Yourself Free From their decent It was the product of their undoing Feeding on the lives of the innocent as they crawled, begging for their suffering to end Taken from a loving family And stolen from a happy home Brainwashed to make this city implode Once again But the young ones They found no mercy from their captors And we Showed no mercy In kind To all of their evil that Bound us Shackled to the poisons that they forced upon us all Living inside of this hell for too long Dependant Addicts of the pain in this cold dark infinity Mentally conditioned for the worst That this bucket had to offer Vengeance The Only remedy to abate all the insanity Ended With the sound from this world deep underground The payment Measured by displeasure on the ledger of disdain Left to pay their debt with their lives Taken willingly To the bed of the deep Returned To the bed of the deep Returned
