Day after day tests after tests in the realms of death victims are dismembered. Fear, suffering, flesh all around Devil's experiments in search of non existing solutions. Crawling verms, spilling from their guts. Day after day toxics wastes, these dayd are dying. The satanic ritual of destruction goes on. New generations will have the demoniac legacy. Demon's getting closer and all that they can do is scream. Now dead, cos' they are weak and defenseless to the damned tyrants that need their blood. A factory of death, an unecessary ritual pay to the devil itself the price. There's not enough effort when the ultimate victory is life.

Shame 02:15
And I figure it out how it should be. No more spaces for us to be here. People forget everyday the things they used to say. Kick the hourglass, as the sand fades away. If I have any mistake, is just to be the same. And it's sad to see how many leave my hand. to see how many embrace disgrace. A life in change of shame! A life in change of shame! When we could fly and touch the skies. when we could live and not be seen. when we could feel and not be guilty. A life in trade of shame!
3.
Afraid, so afraid of who can be happier than you. Ashamed, so ashamed of what you hide from you. It was never a matter of disguises, it's just a matter of rights. An insecurity covered with hipocrisy and lies. A segregation of hate, humilliation. Society try to deny, parents avoid their eyes. Hoping for a better life, deceiving a suicide solution. Love denied, tortured life, homophobia at its high. Rage on what you don't understand! Insecurity. What do you fear?
4.
Your hate is going right back at you Condenmed, recluse, that´s what your life is Keep running and hiding, living scared A politic of fear and hatred And why you still insist in white supremacy? Life shows your everyday defeat. Your league leading to nowhere and I can bet that you don´t even know nothing about it. Social hatred related to races An unecessary basis created to belief that genetic facts can determinate that some race is truly primary. Uncomprehension and misunderstanding. Home of the thief, land of the slave. So far in the so called evolution but still people show symptons and facts of division.
5.
Don't tell me you can´t understand! No, don't tell me you didn't understand! Always trying to find any defect In my way of life and what I chose for me FOR ME! (Asking me) how can I stay so long? (Asking me) if someday I'll go wrong? Hell, no! Why can´t you be vegan? Yeah, right. V-E-G-A-N, VEGAN! This is what I live, this is what I say! Cryin' won't help, prayin won't do no good! To those that are suffering, tortured and caged. Exactly the point your life can´t reach, This is the place where we separate. Yeah, separate, from those who stood to fight against your luxury of death! A sensation of seconds just to hear you how I can stay this way. Your paradise of colors, taste and dairy. Their hell of guts, blood and shit.

Sem solidão, sem medo de lutar, Espreitando em silêncio, a nossa chamada. Os nervos despertam, a minha essência evidente nos meus punhos. Uma forma primitiva de encarnar uma resistência! Meus compassos diminuem, minha respiração me compromete. A escuridão me alia nessa causa onde não há glórias, só luta. A caminhada prossegue sem descanso ou memórias O que passou não me afeta, o que me espera conforta. O meu trajeto é reto, direto ao limite. Desistir da esperança é desistir da vida. Quando faltar a amizade, vai prevalecer a verdade! Straight edge, caminhada sem fim, eu vou persistir, não vou desistir!
7.
Awake and disturbed, again I feel the pain Lost in a cause that's already gone Hopeless sense of hipocrity compassion No place for brotherhood and shareness Cos' we are living our hardest times Bringing hate to these last days Away will be the days We didn't save We are not free of anything We bounce on the edge of the shame Idols made of stone are cracking up With all the things that made we break Away will be the days we didn't save.
8.
Would you think that distance might change us? Would you think that we really cared? To those who are here, and against those who are not, Courage and bravery, Will not be forgot. Alive, alert, everyone stirs again Madness will Beneath, but proud in my duty I stand The words that lips could not express Now speaks to me in jest No longer breaks unto the shore I'll sail upon this ship no more When I am free, and you are not Courage and bravery, Will not be forgot. And how so many left me To embrace the land And for each fellow with me, Ten more will leave You won't be forgot Never, ever, will not be forgot

Cornerstone 03:09
Worthless, the road that we built is turning gray The good and the old is fading away And we remain in the cornerstone Of the days passed a long time ago. And there's no way to bring it back No one should start it, but still We receive misery even if we give love. Foundation on which my strenght is built. The wings of the perseverance, for my destiny to be fulfilled. To never be put away before our burden ceases. Until there is no rock left to hold us Steady to the bangs of war. With the anguish of the broken hearted No longer mourning for the dead. Carrying grief in our breasts, We rise against the lies written on stone.
