Blood of the Oak - Fire Lyrics

Since fire first touched the human hand
Arrogance latched itself to the hearts of man

With violence as it's advocate
The power trip is infinite
Leaving cohesion behind
We chose to forge an offense
When the hammer of hatred strikes
The flames ignite
Forcing the steel to the shape of death
Though our anger gives it life

War cry to freeze the bones
Of our enemies
Mercy drains with every step
Replaced by apathy
Embodiment of greed
It's gold we seek
Resources ripped from the Earth
The silent tragedy

(Why do we threaten life?
Why don't we coincide?)

Carve the crest onto the land using only the blood
The blood of the innocent
Reckless, we kill to forge a future
Not thinking of the cost
For this is the human legacy

The power trip is infinite
With violence as its advocate
Serving the bloodlust within
I take my neighbors life
Since fire first touched
The human hand
Until the last grass is sand
I am man

I won't stop until there's nothing on this f*cking rock
Just a soulless empty shell
Glutton for everything I don't need
I leave a barren wasteland
In the wake of self
