Intro (Spoken)
Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But words can grind them to dust.
Your ignorance, greed, and money—
They can’t hold the world forever.

Verse 1
You whispered doubts like they were prayers,
Hung my worth from your crooked stares.
Cut my voice till it barely bled,
But I built a crown from what you said.

Pre-Chorus
We aren’t all stupid, or blind, or unaware,
No matter how much you poison the air.
You built this cage and called it peace,
But we're tearing cracks through every piece.
You wish we’d stay broken, silenced, numb,
But we’re waking up—and you should run.

Chorus
You tried to break what you couldn’t own,
Spoke your curses like sticks and stones.
But every bruise, every shattered crust,
Just fed the fire—I turned to dust.
Not fading out—I became the storm,
Words like hammers, pain reformed.
So speak again—I'll rise, combust...
Your silence now… grinds you to dust.

Verse 2
You call me lost while you worship lies,
Built on flags and blood and alibis.
You preach your truth with iron claws—
Then blame the broken for your flawed laws.
Why are you so brainwashed,
While saying I’m the one who's blind?
I found my soul in the wreckage—
You just lost your mind.

Breakdown / Interlude
I don’t understand why you can’t see…
Why can’t you see…
Why can’t you see…
WHY CAN’T YOU SEE?!
You chain yourself to comfort,
While the world’s set on fire.
You laugh at the ashes—
But still call me a liar.

Phoenix Verse
I am no victim. I am no pawn.
I watched in silence—but that time is gone.
I am a Phoenix,
Born of your abuse.
Inspired by the evil I see in you...
TO BURN. IT. ALL. DOWN.

Final Chorus
No matter what you do,
No matter what you say,
We won’t back down,
Not fade—not today.
We won’t go free ‘til the system breaks,
And the last lie finally shakes.
We are the storm you tried to hush—
Now we’re the ones who grind to dust.

Outro (Spoken / Fading)
I am tired of an ignorant world,
Where people hurt each other...
Blind to the potential.
I’d rather die
If it proves impossible to make a difference.
One day you might realize your errors...
If you survive.

MINDKILLER

Is Love Really So Blind After All

Some debts don't die when you do. This track is about the thing that follows you home after you thought you got away with it - the cold presence in the room, the voice in your ear reminding you that silence was never payment enough. Heavy grooves, harsh vocals, and a breakdown that crawls before it crushes. Vengeance doesn't sleep. It just waits.

The Wraith

The hurt. the pain. the suffering. the eternal heartache. Memories of fractured souls. Death Beyond Reason brings another meaning to death. Embrace the suffering. Witness yourself relating to this pain. 

P.S. this is a project I've been working on for months an months an months. An this goes out to anybody in the world on earth. You wanna learn the songs an play them please do. I would love to collab an have others to help me start this dream band. I do different screams an I've been screaming for 15 years now.

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
