This summer will mark 5 years since I've put out a song under the name "Final Words of a Martyr." 

I am incredibly proud of the music I released for the EP "Within the Blackened Wings," and much has changed since 2012. 

I have been informed and inspired by many experiences and have gained newfound wisdom. From founding this project through hatred in its infancy to carrying it on with emboldened strength, confidence, and most importantly love...this is the next step. 

If you've read this far, I thank you; but for now...enough exposition. 

Let the music speak for itself and headbang with your horns held high and proud \m/

Lyrics:
I am the slave, I am the master of my mind
My life, the first and last, I choose to leave behind
I stand or die by the sum of every single fear
So better to live and rise for the measure of my years

Pre-Chorus
And I am gone to the call from the voices in my head
What a life to be led, I'm too late and early dead...

Chorus
There's so much to survive, by the choice alive
I love, I hate, I can't discriminate
Between the wicked lines (that I define...)

I am the cure, I am the poison in my veins
I am the wrath to scorch whatever of my earth remains
I am the flood to purify the flame of loss
And I am without any gods...All alone, I bear my cross...

Pre-Chorus
And I am gone to the call from the voices in my head
What a life to be led, I'm too late and early dead...

Chorus
There's so much to survive, by the choice alive
I love, I hate, I can't discriminate
Between the wicked lines (that I define...)

That I define...

STOP! GO! 

Chorus
There is so much to survive, by the choice alive
I love, I hate, I can't discriminate
Between the wicked lines (that I define...)

Read between the lines
Bleed between the lines...

The Wicked Lines

If you like Pantera, Lamb of God, Sepultura...
You've come to the right place \m/

It must be hard to see the light
When the sun is right in front of your eyes
It must be hard to speak your mind
When the truth is overruled by the lies
Goddamn too far condemned,
How much of your time are you willing to spend
With every breath to waste and defeat to taste
When victory is chosen mildly in such haste
 
*One against all and bound to fall
  With a knife to a gunfight and a trembling hand
  To be forsaken by those are living (by command)-2x
  Placed in a bet and all the cards are set
  I wonder how high the stakes can stand
  To stay alive in the land of those who live by command
 
It must be hard to win your fights
When favor for you is far beyond the odds
It must be hard not to feel left behind
When you're seen as a recluse among false gods
Cast out, no whereabouts
Of a sign that ignorance will ever die
Derailed by every single fail
To find an answer, explanation why
 
*One against all and bound to fall
 With a knife to a gunfight and a trembling hand
 To be forsaken by those who are living (by command)-2x
 Place in a bet and all the cards are set
 I wonder how high the stakes can stand
 To stay alive in the land of those who live by command
 
 
2x-Solace is found in ignorance
 
*One against all and bound to fall
 With a knife to a gunfight and a trembling hand
 To be forsaken by those who are living (by command)-2x
 Place in a bet and all the cards are set
 I wonder how high the stakes can stand
 To stay alive in the land of those who live by command
 
4x-How can they ever move forward
    When they're always looking back?

Live By Command

This song was based on the Arab Spring as Mubarak and Gadahfi were both taken out of power. It is also based on other historical overthrows such as bringing down the Nazi regime and the dictatorship under Hussein some years ago.

Lyrics:

Celebrate the end, rejoice my brothers in arms
Take back the land strived for so long and so far
Freed from the bondage, grip of the tyrant loose
Power diminished when all agree to refuse

***Death to the tyrants
    Death to their insolence
    Death to the rule
    Bring them to silence
    Death to the tyrants
    Death to bigotry 
    Death to the hand
    At long last we are free

Towers fall, no longer left in their name
Rebuilding all that is left for us to claim
Resisting one, resisting all
Breaking the barriers, until there is no fucking wall

***Death to the tyrants
    Death to their insolence
    Death to the rule
    Bring them to silence
    Death to the tyrants
    Death to bigotry 
    Death to the hand
    At long last we are free

Protest and rebellion had led to civil war
United population victorious as they stormed
Into the streets cared not to be alive or dead
As long as in the end, the prize was the tyrant’s head

***Death to the tyrants
    Death to their insolence
    Death to the rule
    Bring them to silence
    Death to the tyrants
    Death to bigotry 
    Death to the hand
    At long last we are free

Death to the Tyrants

It has taken a long time to finally get something out for this project. For the first few releases, I intend to record all of the parts of the songs on my own until a proper line up is formed. I feel in doing this, I have totally and truly immersed myself into the music I have written. The only release I plan so far is an EP/Demo entitled "Within The Blackened Wings," which will have 5 songs including the debut track "Conscience In Despair." If you like metal, this is most definitely for you, the listener who cared enough to check this page out in the first place. Horns up! This is gonna be a hell of a ride \m/
