The worst of you, the filthy few
The rotten corps must suffer
The power whores and the psychopaths
The shadow kings and their filthy nests
The leadership and the holy men
The entire vile brethren
We work our way top-down
The worst go first, and we’ll make sure (that) it hurts
We work our way top-down
This sect of greed, we’ll make sure they all bleed
Wanna kill a snake?
Need it to stay dead?
Want the coils to break?
Cut off the head!
A pristine selection to sever the infection
The scope is set
The worst of you, the filthy few
The rotten corps must suffer
The psychopaths and the power whores
Conglomerates and contributors
The traffickers, the malevolent
The fear mongers, the 1%
We work our way top-down
The hearts of steel, we’ll make sure they all squeal
We work our way top-down
The kings of scheme, we’ll make sure they all scream
Wanna kill a snake?
Need it to stay dead?
Want the coils to break?
Cut off the head!
You will not walk away from this
triumphant and beckoning
You had hoped to elude this end
but we are the reckoning
The worst of you, the filthy few
The rotten corps must suffer

We’ll take your shelter
Every human streak
We’ll take your shelter
You will be small and weak
We’ll take your shelter
You caused a system-wide failure
The human aspect will pad its own significance
It will rape and maim and kill everything of innocence
The unarmed human has such limited dimensions
Your puny project badly failed, despite all good intentions
The human influence can make the air go stale,
can make the oceans boil, can make a planet fail
You caused a system-wide failure
Disassemble: Until you’re exposed
Disassemble: Until it is disclosed that you are nothing
You are nothing
A disintegration to fit the lay of the land
An original world with no factor of man
A disintegration of all your contraptions
All of these structures that inflate your importance
We’ll take your shelter
Every human streak
We’ll take your shelter
You will be small and weak
We’ll take your shelter
Disassemble: Until you’re exposed
Disassemble.
We strip you naked to your flesh and to your bone
You will face this nature, unshielded and alone
You will see the weak beast and the monster that you are
You will know your place again right before the end

This is the evil line you should not have crossed
There can be no pretext, even if needs must
We are staring at your sustenance in sheer disgust
Accept the recoil of your bloodlust
Here’s a sullen, bitter covenant that you can trust
Reap the dark spoils of your bloodlust
Blood for food is the most wicked kind of servitude
Skin for dress, a disturbing kind of savageness
The laws of karma will also apply to all of you with this determined blind eye
Now this genocide has been testified
It’s extraneous, it's undignified
Every wide-eyed beast is deathly terrified
This is the evil line that you should not have crossed
There can be no pretext, even if needs must
The bloodlust
Here is the exact point where the tables turn.
You will feel the terror, you will feel the burn.
Your frequency has changed, we’ve turned you into prey
Every beast is charged to hunt for your bouquet
You’ve been debased to naught, beneath the ol’ food chain
Can you feel the fear, feel the fear take rein
Feel the fear as hungry beasts are closing in
Feel the fear of being hunted for your skin
Feel the fear of getting raided by your kin
Your frequency has changed
This is no moral ground but a cabalistic stance
You will get the same odds: not a single chance

This is the rate of change, the rate of change
We have reached the end
You will not have to suffer long
We switch you off, another breath and you’ll be gone
As we take life away from you,
does it not prove most valuable in any view
We will not overextend
but some discomfort is to be expected in the end
Why are you begging for mercy?
The time has passed for you to end the strife
Did you not have agency over your actions?
Did you not actually wield the knife?
No, your monsters will not come to life
This is the rate of change, the rate of change
Don’t lie, everything has always been clear
Don’t squirm, simply accept the consequences
Don’t shift, the path you took is what led you here
No doubt, we are collecting the expenses
We have reached the end, we’ve become untethered
Now, eradication brings us all together
We have reached the end, we have all been severed
We will feel united in this last endeavour
We have reached the end
We will not overextend

Perfect
Perfect balance has been attained
Perfect Balance
Perfect
Everything is everything, it’s overpowering
Perfect
The present moment covers the soul
Now truly nothing is under control
This is all natural
It’s brutal but fair
No longer corrupted by benevolent care
Everything timeless & aware
Unconditional love is free to burn
All is immortal & nowhere
Inconsequential time is free to turn
Now truly nothing is under control
This is all natural
It’s ruthless but fair
Freed from the fiction of compassionate care
Everything timeless & aware
All is immortal & nowhere
Nowhere
All falls into place effortlessly, now that you're no more than a distant memory
Every word, ever spoken had lost all meaning before it could be broken
I sense the night was darker than black
But I see the light is flooding back
Perfect
yes, less than nothing is under control
This is all natural
Ferocious but fair
Unviolated by a merciful care
