Diamond in the Rough
Our predecessors turn in their graves
We are the age of the weak and ashamed
An eon for no pioneers or paladins
In a dying world where it's hate that wins
Once upon a time when we were one
We were united when we came undone
But we're blind to our own blindness
You sigh and say
How can I make a difference?
Spreading hate and aggression
And now death is a blessing
God has blocked the entrance
To our existence and burned the evidence
Be a diamond in the rough
Now all our love is out of touch
We tread to trip in their trenches of squalor
Drinking delusion from their dirty water
Choke on the lies that you've fed
They wanna watch you burn to fucking death
Stamped and tagged so we can't cover our tracks
Born and bred battery farmed
But we are too blind and brain dead to see
What's really happening underneath
And now we breed just to harbour and hold some fucking greed
Spreading hate and aggression
And now death is a blessing
God has blocked the entrance
To our existence and burned the evidence
Be a diamond in the rough
Now all our love is out of touch
Be a diamond in the rough
Now all our love is out of touch
The blood has risen and started to thicken
No wisdom with addiction to income
Choke on the lies that you've fed
They wanna watch you burn to fucking death
In this time of doubt
Where no light is found
You won't bring us down
So can you hear us now?
In this beautiful world that we can create
We must fight back at the inhumane
In this beautiful world that we can create
We must fight back at the inhumane
We are the age of the weak and ashamed
An eon for no pioneers or paladins
In a dying world where it's hate that wins
Once upon a time when we were one
We were united when we came undone
But we're blind to our own blindness
You sigh and say
How can I make a difference?
Spreading hate and aggression
And now death is a blessing
God has blocked the entrance
To our existence and burned the evidence
Be a diamond in the rough
Now all our love is out of touch
We tread to trip in their trenches of squalor
Drinking delusion from their dirty water
Choke on the lies that you've fed
They wanna watch you burn to fucking death
Stamped and tagged so we can't cover our tracks
Born and bred battery farmed
But we are too blind and brain dead to see
What's really happening underneath
And now we breed just to harbour and hold some fucking greed
Spreading hate and aggression
And now death is a blessing
God has blocked the entrance
To our existence and burned the evidence
Be a diamond in the rough
Now all our love is out of touch
Be a diamond in the rough
Now all our love is out of touch
The blood has risen and started to thicken
No wisdom with addiction to income
Choke on the lies that you've fed
They wanna watch you burn to fucking death
In this time of doubt
Where no light is found
You won't bring us down
So can you hear us now?
In this beautiful world that we can create
We must fight back at the inhumane
In this beautiful world that we can create
We must fight back at the inhumane
