This is violence in its purest form, what it is truly made for,
love and hatred flow through my throat, with this microphone in my hand.
We are the voice for the voiceless among unholy kingdoms drunk with blasphemy.
We are continents wide and oceans deep,
the blood of the saints is splashed across the ruins like a holy holocaust.
We will return and you will hear an uproar of lost souls.
There will be violence! There will be violence!
Perverse works are in vain, though the light may now seem dim,
the whole world chases after Him, this is a movement abandoning hate and preaching war.
We are the voice for the voiceless among unholy kingdoms drunk with blasphemy.
We are continents wide and oceans deep,
the blood of the saints is splashed across the ruins like a holy holocaust.
We will return and you will hear an uproar of lost souls.
For the unbelievers who repeatedly try to retain their “faith in humanity”,
I promise there will be violence.
There will be violence! There will be violence! There will be violence! (violence) ...violence!
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: “There Will Be Violence” is a sort of pre-what-is-to-come song that I’m screaming to this generation. As Christians on this earth we should proclaim our faith boldly no matter what, and after we are either martyred or raptured we will come back and conquer what’s left.
(feat. guest vocals by Tim Lambesis of As I Lay Dying / Austrian Death Machine)
Life is granted by an unforeseen force, we are but molecules in motion and nothing more?
Survival of the fittest is a dark tale, sending my generation to the depths of hell.
Inventors of evil and the secrets of men worthy of misery, worthy of death.
The pages of the old teach that the treasures of heaven are filth of the earth.
I will not turn my eyes, I will not ignore their cries.
We have turned sanctity of life into a septic tank of living. Oh wretched animals!
This is terror, this is darkness, this is the human heart.
Oh... Set me apart, because when rejection leads to oppression, I proclaim in the loudest.
I curse “modern day consumption” and the chambers that execute them.
Orphans (orphans) come home.
Life is granted by an unforeseen force, we are but molecules in motion and nothing more?
Survival of the fittest is a dark tale, sending my generation to the depths of hell.
Through the tears I see the beauty of you, the night is over, the morning’s dawning.
The pages of the old teach that the treasures of Heaven are filth of the earth.
I will not turn my eyes, I will not ignore their cries.
Has anything changed? Has anything really changed?
The time has come. Has anything changed?
Orphans come home the kingdom is yours. Orphans come home the kingdom is yours.
Orphans come home!
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: This song goes out to the castaway children and to the ones that this world deems unworthy of love. God’s heart is for those who are broken and for those who want to be restored. "Orphans come home the kingdom is yours."
I do believe, but perverted religions they all spread like disease.
I do believe, but perverted religions they all spread like disease, untrusting and deceived.
Governments leading the blind (leading the blind), controlling societies with:
Noise! Peace! Illusions! Riots fill our streets. Noise! Peace! Illusions!
I have said nothing new, I’m not a revolutionary,
I’m not the world’s leader, but I’m a part of holding it together.
I have such a different view of this place; it seems that the faces of evil always seem to change.
I’m not a revolutionary, I’m not the worlds leader, but I’m a part of holding it together.
I have such a different view of this place; it seems that the faces of evil always change.
In this generation over and over again something has to be said, this is not a threat.
Noise! Peace! Illusions! Death is in the air. Noise! Peace! Illusions! Illusions!
Noise! Peace! Illusions! Riots fill our streets. Noise! Peace! Illusions!
Peace is an illusion, death has come! Yeah...
Peace is an illusion, death has come! Peace is an illusion, death has come!
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: “Peace Illusion” is a song that claims true peace will never come from government, armies, religious views or any political system. Jesus Christ is peace and we won’t know what it truly is until we are fully in His presence.
(feat. guest vocals by Vincent Bennett of The Acacia Strain)
The devil is alive, ’cause I can feel him breathing.
Over the horizon comes hell, and my arms wide open as I embrace the apocalypse.
This is what you came to know as fear. He’s here, this is the great fear.
I don’t care who you are, you’re afraid of death, you’re terrified by how the world’s going to end,
so follow me as I take you to the One where life begins... where life begins.
A flash, with black roses in our hands, we fall to the floor like ash.
The hatred placed in humanity leads to the love of global destruction
and worship of senseless slaughter (slaughter)... slaughter.
I don’t care who you are, you’re afraid of death, you’re terrified by how the world’s going to end.
I don’t care who you are, you’re afraid of death, you’re terrified... you’re terrified.
Now put all this suffering and hatred together, this won’t last forever.
THIS WON’T LAST FOREVER! This won’t last forever. This won’t last forever.
We are (we are) ...enslaved (enslaved) ...to a (to a) ...darkened (darkened) (darkened) ...world.
We are enslaved (we are enslaved) ...to a darkened (to a darkened world).
I will never follow! I will never follow! Yeah...
I don’t care who you are, you’re afraid of death, you’re terrified by how the world’s going to end,
so follow me as I take you to the One where life begins... where life begins.
Everyone here will die, but the great fear is being left behind.
Everyone here will die, but the great fear is being left behind.
Hell is coming, but I embrace the One who stands alone.
Hell is coming, but I embrace the One who stands alone. Oh...
Hell is coming! Hell is coming!... Hell is coming! Hell is coming! Hell is coming!
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: Death comes for us all, for unbelievers and believers, but as Christians we know that as soon as we "die" we are in the place of God. People who reject God their whole lives will be eternally separated from Him.
Here I am! Yeah... A dangerous man.
Father God, give me strength to fight this to the end,
then to jump in faith and to break every stronghold in my way.
The time is up; the time has come, quit playing it safe. I spit in your face.
The end is coming, but not yet. You’re not that lucky. Torment will go on and on.
I was expecting you and I’m not afraid of 10,000 of the ungodly.
Nothing you do can stop me now! (Nothing you do can stop me now!) You won’t take me!
The hell you preach and ascend from has been shoved down our throats for far too long.
In evil there’s no spark of creativity; there’s only twisted and deformed darkened beauty.
I curse you back to your wasteland.
Nothing you do can stop me now! (Nothing you do can stop me now!)
Send us the sounds of heaven, send us the sounds of war.
Send us the sounds of heaven, send us the sounds of war.
Every ounce of evil will fade away.
We are the sounds of heaven, we are the voice of war.
We are the sounds of heaven, we are the voice of war.
We are the sounds of heaven, we are the voice of war.
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: “Walking Through Fire” is basically me going through life, being tempted, going through trials, getting beaten down, all to allow God to mold me into the man who will fight for His kingdom. "We are the sound of Heaven, we are the voice of war".
(Instrumental)
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: “Love Has Risen” is an instrumental. But I hope it gives you the sense that if you feel no one in this world loves you, Jesus Christ died to prove His love for you.
8. The Son Is Mine
Men of America, it’s time to stop being brainwashed. [...further lyrics for this part coming soon...]
Blind eyes and deaf ears are not welcome here. Blind eyes and deaf ears are not welcome here.
Go... In my desperation, I’ll fight for your affection,
to set... to set me apart, to find... to find who I truly am. Oh... The Son is mine.
Power corrupts definitely, conceit is a mask to insecurity.
Your influence criticized by friends and enemies.
I know that no matter how many bridges I burn, how many lessons I never fully learn,
love is something all alone I would never... I would never deserve. The Son Is Mine.
This is my confession of my troubled soul. Renew me, and make my eyes shine.
The Son is mine. (The Son is mine.) This is a conflict of two natures.
In my body is both, evil and death. Who will set me free?
Power corrupts definitely, conceit is a mask to insecurity.
Your influence criticized by friends and enemies. The sun never sets on my life.
The Son never sets, the Son is mine for life. The Son never sets, the Son is mine for life.
The Son never sets, the Son is mine for life. The Son never sets, the Son is mine for life.
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: ”The Son is Mine” is my confession that I am a screwed up man, but no matter how many times I fall down or how much I fail, God and His unconditional love is always holding out His hand to pick me up.
9. Children of Wrath
Take a bite of the sickness (sickness) and feel the rush of your desire.
When you act upon your urges (urges), so begins a period of decent. Deception.
I am a tainted man with a wretched mind, I am ashamed of myself again and again.
I don’t need another pointed finger, I don’t want to hide, just find myself.
I come to you filthy. Take a bite of the sickness and feel the rush.
Save me, save me, save me, because I can’t save myself.
I HATE RELIGION, I DON’T NEED A CULT! The world doesn’t need any more fakes.
I have committed cosmic plagiarism,
I was a self proclaimed god, a mirror image of a cheap imitation.
Those we thought were on top, quickly fall to the bottom when judgment drops.
In death shame fills the black and immortal soul. We were never meant to save ourselves.
I HATE RELIGION, I DON’T NEED A CULT! The world doesn’t need any more fakes.
So I walk a new path, no one chooses for me...
So I walk a new path, no one chooses for me. So I walk a new path, no one chooses for me.
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: “Children of Wrath” is how believers and unbelievers set their standard to a group of rules and rely more on their own works than God’s mercy and grace. He’s the perfect dad. He knows you’re going to mess up. He wants you to depend on Him. Not yourself. Because "we were never meant to save ourselves".
10. Sweating Blood
Suffering and glory are the greatest powers that history has ever seen.
I want to live a life worth writing about and more, because I lived a life, a life worth dying for.
Faith! ... Walk with me!
We have made it my friends, we’re the closest generation to the end.
They will never silence us with torture or in their prisons.
We have made it my friends, we’re the closest generation to the end.
They will never silence us with torture or in their prisons.
Tears will roll down our cheeks and our souls will get restless,
but we will not be afraid of the lion’s teeth in our face.
I will grab the beast by his mane and scream at the top of my lungs.
We have made it my friends, we’re the closest generation to the end.
They will never silence us with torture or in their prisons.
We have made it my friends, we’re the closest generation to the end.
They will never silence us with torture or in their prisons.
Our love is stronger than death. I will never deny my faith.
I will never deny my faith. I will never deny my faith (my faith). Forever!
Explanation by vocalist Brook Reeves: Christians will be persecuted especially as we near the end. It is an encouragement to those getting beaten and mocked for their faith to remain faithful, for this is our time of glory.
