“Lifting the Veil”

Do you ever question what you're taught?
Is life really just an accident?
Explosions destroy; They do not create
They're teaching theories unproven

Persecution comes the more you search
So prepare yourself for the hate
Earthly riches won’t go to your grave
Seeking the truth is our greater purpose

Turn your back on the world
Come join me and let’s walk this path 
Wisdom or pleasure; Which are you craving more?

Let’s give glory to you for cutting the chains
A new life begins for us
We would not be
We would not see
Without you Lifting the Veil 
(2x)

Churches are all filled with corruption
The answers cannot be found there

Broad is the way that leads into hell
Don't become just another statistic

Turn your back on the world
Come join me and let’s walk this path
Wisdom or pleasure; Which are you craving more?

Let’s give glory to you for cutting the chains
A new life begins for us 
We would not be
We would not see
Without you Lifting the Veil 
(2x)

Enoch, Jubilees, Jasher
Why were they left out?
Fragments of a forgotten history

Now we can see the stories untold
Resurgence of teachings misunderstood
The Nephilim; Fallen angels
Taking the daughters of men
A new bloodline

Transmission of forbidden knowledge
Divination, sorcery and spells
Their punishment; A warning sent from above
They were all killed, but not their spirits

Demons still walk among us
Follow them and you'll go in the abyss

Turn your back on the world

They target our souls..
Knowing their time is short

The signs are converging..
And justice will come..
Like a thief in the night (3x)

“Wheat from the Chaff”

Look around
It’s everywhere
No one shall enter without a mask
Insanity 
The “new normal”
Event 201; A simulation they’ve made reality

Fear; 24/7
Look at the news
Fear; The real pandemic
A world enslaved
Make sure you take the "cure"
One is not enough
Voluntary submission

“Variants”
No end in sight
The usual suspects are behind it, plotting our demise

It’s all a precursor
Leading to “the mark”
It’s all in plain sight
For us to see
If we reject this
We will be outcasts
Forced to fend for ourselves

The separation has begun
He’s separating all the Wheat from the Chaff
Will we be gathered up into the barn?
Or be burned up by the unquenchable fire?

Day after day we’re told..
To trust in the words of men
Where has it gotten us?
Can’t you see?
They treat us like rats in a cage

“15 days to flatten the curve”
Now we’re told it could be here forever
Endgame; Depopulation
Most people still believe that these scumbags..
Care for us

“Variants”
No end in sight
The usual suspects are behind it, plotting our demise

It’s all a precursor
Leading to “the mark”
It’s all in plain sight
For us to see
If we reject this
We will be outcasts
Forced to fend for ourselves

The separation has begun
He’s separating all the Wheat from the Chaff
Will we be gathered up into the barn?
Or be burned up by the unquenchable fire?

We have a choice

Wheat from the Chaff

***INSTRUMENTAL OF THIS TRACK AVAILABLE WITH PURCHASE OF THE "From Darkness to False Light" EP ON BANDCAMP: https://legionary.bandcamp.com/album/from-darkness-to-false-light-ep

“From Darkness to False Light”

Birth pangs
Can you feel them?
All this is just the start
Famine, pestilence
Prophecies leaping from the pages

The world economy is collapsing..
By design
Every single nation must fall..
Before we are one

Darkness has ruled us for centuries
We’re witnessing the transition

We hear of wars; Locally and abroad
Civil unrest and martial law declared

The masses are desperate
They’re begging for a savior
Little do they know,
The “man of peace” is almost here

Darkness has ruled us for centuries
We're witnessing the transition

From Darkness to False Light
The lawless one takes his throne
Worship or you will die
Worship or save your soul 
(2x)

He will promise many earthly treasures
Not easy to refuse
The debts of all will be forgiven
People everywhere rejoice
The income tax will no longer exist
Wealth of many will increase
Wars will be a thing of the past
All of this if we play by his rules

Fall to your knees
You must show your allegiance
Small and great, rich and poor, free and slave..
To be marked on their right hand or forehead

I choose death!

Once he’s revealed,
We won’t have much time
Leave now
Forget what’s inside,
And flee into the mountains
I pray for the lost souls that cannot see
Blinded by..
A light that’s not pure (2x)

From Darkness to..
False Light
(4x)

"Iron Mixed With Clay"

From cradle to grave..
we're told to blindly trust authority
It doesn't matter..
what uniform they wear. We must obey
Compartmentalized
Not everyone you know is in on it
Most, unknowingly..
take orders from the head of the snake

What is truth in your mind?
Do you just take their word?
"Peer-reviewed" just means they..
accepted money to repeat the lies

They want to end..
humanity..
as we know it

What has science become?
Just another religion
Experts? More like actors
Blinding the herd spiritually
They have made it clear
A new order must rise..
where you'll own nothing, and you'll be happy

They want to end..
humanity..
as we know it

Millions and millions of order followers..
are ready to merge with the..
machines.... (2x)

The masses..
they don't realize..
they're in a cult
Belief that something came from nothing
We, that can see beyond the flesh..
we are the ones that everyone fears
Frightened that we'll tear it all down

Human DNA is now being altered..
and there is no turning back

This never could take place..
in a world that knew life was a precious gift
From the start, we're brainwashed..
to believe that everything is random chance
Once you see that they all..
are apart of the same secret societies..
you will see everything..
we were taught..
was designed..
to keep us all chasing an illusion

The time is now
They've waited long enough
There will be no more soft tyranny
You will get in line..
for your brain chips
All in the name of "science"
Iron Mixed With Clay
Daniel 2:43
It's prophecy.... (2x)

Episode 2 - Are Nuclear Bombs a Hoax? & Order Followers

IT'S FINALLY HERE! My brother JDfromNY206 finally has new music for his awesome wrestling podcast "Off The Script". I wanna once again thank Tony (for laying down an absolutely nasty solo at the end) and Bobby (for playing rhythm guitars, and making this mix top notch). Before I wrote this track, I asked JD "Do you want something epic or something brutal?". He said epic, so this is what I came up with. JD's #1 podcast now has the #1 theme song in the IWC! Enjoy!

Off The Script (JDfromNY206 Intro Theme)

"Badge of Honor"

Addicted to a fantasy
I speak the truth,
But you still spit in my face
A cognitive dissonance,
That goes unrivaled
A friendship that you'll throw away,
Because you can't admit when you're wrong

You tell me to just live my life
Call me insane because I care
Coming from you,
I'll wear it like a badge of honor
Your ignorance is not bliss

You're not the first,
And you will not be the last
I'm not afraid to walk alone
This quest for truth requires lots of sacrifice
When it comes to you, I won't look back,
Because you can't admit when you're wrong

You tell me to just live my life
Call me insane because I care
Coming from you,
I'll wear it like a badge of honor
Your ignorance is not bliss

It's the herd mentality
If the majority believes it,
Then it must be true
Every time
Everywhere
You will follow

Nothing but an empty vessel
You live in a fictional reality
There's no sense of purpose,
Inside your mind
Another day, another hoax,
But you will just eat up what you're told
Acceptance is your drug

Programmed to think that
Everything is just coincidence
"Why would they lie?"
They live, you sleep

Breaking news!
This just in!
Another Hollywood script
Another drill that's passed off as real
Rinse and repeat

Shoot the messengers!
All who oppose!

Who are you to tell me how to live my life?
You are the one who breeds negativity

Never have I felt more alive
Mentally, I see clearer
There's no regrets
Since cutting you out

Most people are unreachable,
But once you disconnect yourself from the beast,
You can't go back

Badge of Honor

"Spiritual Warfare"

Our hearts, minds, and souls...
are at stake in this epic war

We're under attack
There's no turning back
Surrounding us everywhere
A few will fight,
but many may be far too gone

The enemies of humanity...
have made a choice...
to sell us out
Wealth and fame are their rewards

Do what thou wilt
This is the code...
of their brotherhood

You can find the Devil's hands in everything
The biggest lie...
ever told...
is that he does not exist

Mass hypnosis
Feeding this machine...
that they have built

The odds are stacked against us
Enslaved without the use of force
How can we overcome this evil?
We must go back to our roots,
and reject these false idols

Spiritual Warfare
March forth into the light
It's our only chance to be saved
Spiritual Warfare
There is no end in sight
We must resist temptation
We must resist the mark of the beast

Take your vaccines
Work 9-5
Make sure to vote
You are a slave

Live in fear!

SElected rulers
They all lead us down the same path
Staging terror...
keeps us all trapped inside this box

Textbook "Problem, Reaction, Solution"
Diverting the attention off of them

Their secrets are not so secret anymore,
but we still have a long way to go

If they...
can convince us that were monkeys on a spinning rock,
we will...
believe just about (anything) (2x)

The odds are stacked against us
Enslaved without the use of force
How can we overcome this evil?
We must go back to our roots,
and reject these false idols

Spiritual Warfare
March forth into the light
It's our only chance to be saved
Spiritual Warfare
There is no end in sight
We must resist temptation
We must resist the mark of the beast

Wake up!
Life goes beyond this world
We're tested...
every day, every choice, that we make

Our history has been...
completely rewritten
Everything that we are taught...
is designed to crush the spirit
They have spent centuries...
studying the human mind,
so they know our weaknesses,
and how they can control our thoughts

They leave their calling cards...
for all to see
Once you learn their signs and symbols,
you will see...
right through their trickery,
every time
Scum you once thought were heroes

Unfortunately,
this story won't end...
with a victorious resolution
The masses accept...
whatever they're sold,
so save yourself before it's too late

Spiritual Warfare

"Voices of the Voiceless" 

Hatred will consume you once you see truth
Loathing the person you once were
Broken; Every single thing you once held dear..
is all but a dream

Their nature is not what you thought
Their movements reveal their plans
This never was for equality
The system is rigged against us
We're Voices of the Voiceless

Under the guise of tolerance they spread their lies
Diseased; They must program the youth
Funded; They're nothing but pawns of the "elites"
Crushing society

They will scream "my body, my choice"
It's blatant hypocrisy
Not a word over forced injections
How much more blood will be spilled?
Let's pray that they all just..
Burn in hell

Traditional values now considered hate
Worldwide censorship
They're scared of the truth, so they must pull the plug

This is all leading to civilization collapse
You cannot let this rage consume you
Stay on your purpose there's no other choice

Insane; They ignore the amount of suicides,
each year, that their agenda caused
Abuse; False allegations incite fear
Hold them accountable

They will scream "my body, my choice"
It's blatant hypocrisy
Not a word over forced injections
How much more blood will be spilled?
Let's pray that they all just..
Burn in hell

Changes must be made
For the survival of men, leaders must rise

Look around
They've castrated far too many
Get yourself off the plantation and let them all rot

Voices of the Voiceless

Legionary is a death/thrash metal band from The Bronx. Legionary once played live regularly, but is now a one man band headed by mastermind Frank D'Erasmo (Drums/Rhythm Guitars/Main Composer). Frank uses the services of some of the best metal musicians in the Tri-State area, and is currently dedicated to doing studio projects only at the moment.

The band was established in 2007 by Frank. Although Frank put an album to works immediately, It wasn't until early 2010 that a complete line up had been achieved.

Legionary's self titled demo was released in September of 2010, and quickly received high praise amongst NY and NJ metalheads. The demo includes two original tracks "Deceiver" and "Awakening Reprisal". The performance earned Frank the honor of being enlisted on "Sick Drummer Magazine" the website (http://www.sickdrummermagazine.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2064%3Afrank-derasmo-&catid=64%3Adeath-grind&Itemid=100010).

Legionary's full length debut album titled "Arcane Divisions" (later remixed/remastered in late 2014) was released on iTunes in April 2012. It consists of 10 pulverizing tracks, each of which has their own identity. The album continues where the demo left off, but this time punishes you for nearly 50 minutes with riff after riff.

On April 16, 2013, Legionary released a 4 song EP titled "Path Of Tyranny". The songs are politically themed, average around 4 minutes, and feature a new tuning for the band. The songs are in D standard tuning, which is a change from their usual C standard tuning. Regardless of the higher tuning, these songs are quite possibly Legionary's most intense to date, and feature a more thrashy/"epic" feel. The goal this time around was to have a more modern sounding mix. Frank feels that this EP once again made a statement to the Tri-State metal scene that Legionary is not only one of the best unsigned Tri-State metal bands today, but the best.

The "Once And For All" (EP), released in May of 2014, raised the bar even higher. These are the most mature and most technical Legionary songs ever, and feature the return of ex-lead guitarist Tony Barhoum, and newcomer Mike Dreher (Bassist for Condition Critical & Lich King).
