Jarak My only complaint is that I would have liked some more Ripper in here :D I look forward to hearing more from this criminally underrated band.

lyrics

Tyrant
Deceiver
A whitewashed tomb
Foul, rotting within
Subterfuge unrestrained

Fork tongue Liars
Frauds
Double-dealers
Crushing dissent
To impose their agenda

Invaders
Ravenous wolves
Insatiable hunger for power

Fool the naive
Fulfilling their greed
Until no one is left free
Their nations imperiled
Following their lead,
Tomorrow is not guaranteed

Men of blood and treachery
Shall not live half their days
With flattering lips, they speak
Their end resembles their deeds
Men of blood and treachery
Blood and treachery

Tyrant
Rise up
Deceiver
Take Back the crown
Tyrant
Burn them
Deceiver
Burn them to the ground

Empire crumbles
The throne is dust
Oppression reigns
Defiance is crushed
Master of lies
Wearing the crown
Cold Iron grip on power

Fool the naive
Fulfilling their greed
Until no one is left free
Their nations imperiled
Following their lead,
Tomorrow is not guaranteed

Rise
Rise up
Take back the Crown
Burn
Burn them
Burn them to the goddamn ground

Blood and treachery
Death and misery
Blood and treachery
Death and misery
