Reckoning

Like the rats crawling out of their holes
It's a race to see who damages most
Man's existence is suffering

I have seen what Man has done
They don't deserve any redemption
Forgiveness will surely backfire
And blacken out the sky

The scars they leave on the Earth
Resemble the wounds they inflict on each other
On each other
They couldn't see they were brothers

(They threw it all away on their own
Their tears and bones will feed the soil
Man's existence is slavery)

They threw it all away on their own
Their tears and bones will feed the soil
Man's existence is slavery
Like the rats crawling out of their holes
It's a race to see who damages most
Man's existence is suffering

Our time on this planet is finite
But our actions point towards a mindset thinking otherwise
Decisions made with carelessness do come with a price
And they must be paid in full

Like everything else they have touched and held
They will corrupt grace and distort it
Into further damnation

We have arrived at the fork in the road
We can walk towards destruction or save our souls
Salvation isn't easy
But it's necessary

If we can
Gather the strength
To push towards unity
There is no mountain we can't climb
We've got
Heaven to find

They threw it all away on their own
Their tears and bones will feed the soil
Man's existence is slavery

Man's existence is slavery
Man's existence is suffering

Let's avert this reckoning
Don't let this be our reality
Let's avert this reckoning
Please heed Nature's warning

They threw it all away on their own
Their tears and bones will feed the soil
Man's existence is slavery
Like the rats crawling out of their holes
It's a race to see who damages most
Man's existence is suffering
