“Destroy” deals with the time I served in the army, when my boyhood fantasy of becoming a mighty warrior clashed with the harsh reality of serving as a grunt. “Destroy” is about destructive ways of getting what you want, whether you wage war or live at the expense of others in some other way. As a species, we destroy ourselves by destroying each other. We depend other human beings and this planet. How long can we go on like this before time runs out?
lyrics
To war, it purifies
Your lethargic soul
Far too long you've had to rest
Strength fades without this
Test your spirit
Is it roaring strong?
When nations clash, each proves its worth
Exist or
Do not hold your wrath
It is time for its release
See them over there?
They are evil throughout
As your government, we authorize
This slaughter of their kind
As your governor, I authorize
You to destroy
Hear me, army, they are near
Parasites and rats
Will you join me on my quest to exterminate them fast?
As a little boy I saw heroes marching strong
Now I see this way is wrong, we are here to but create
A world of harmony
Where true strength lies
Greatest enemy of this decay
Our godlike minds
Kill them all
Take their land
Simplest way is best
We have might
We cannot lose
But which land to choose?
Hear me, army, they are near
Parasites and rats
Will you join me on my quest to exterminate them fast?
Hear me, army, we are here
To liberate these lands
Hear me, all
They are here
Now kill or be killed
Now aim
Exist or
Don't fight fire with its kind
But death can come of death
It's so much harder to create
A world of harmony
We could live as gods
On they march, like machines of meat and blood
They were once like us
But breathing, not thinking
Instinctive animals
You should live to preserve life
Not to kill our kind
Not to die for their profits, when we can choose to rise
Use your eyes
Time keeps on running
And we are far behind
Keep on going
Keep on learning
To lead a human life
On they march, like machines of meat and blood
They were once like us
But breathing, not thinking
Instinctive animals
We should live to preserve life
Live to love our kind
Not to die for their fears, when we can choose to
Further life's cause
Save us, there is still
Raised in a family of musicians, I found the way of an artist a natural path to follow. I started by playing violin in my
childhood, and continued on to practicing guitar and composing when I was twenty years old.
I have published three albums: Viral's "Antediluvian Hunger" was released in 2008 and Omniavatar's "United Earth" in 2010. In August 2013 I published "Biographical" under my own name....more
