Demo of our first single, Rhiz Up. 
Lyrics:

Rise!
Rise up and seize your own destiny
Won’t stop before we’re free
Press forth devour our enemies
Set aflame your victory

We’ve walked this winding road
Into brighter days
We’re awakening our souls
The path we travel on
Laid bare with constant, caustic tension takes its toll
And so we rise along the way
In time we’re coming home

(I feel invincible)
My shadow breaks through dawn today
(You’ll never take me on)
I’m here, I’m standing strong
(Yes I’m original)
Can't count me out, I’ll run the race
(We’re going off to war)
We rise (we rise!)
We fight (we fight!)
We won

Penchant for no remorse
I don’t have time to waste
I’m set on maintaining my course
Rampant enervation
This life’s a draining, breaking, unrelenting force
But still we rise, we won’t delay
We’ve found our way back home

(I feel invincible)
My shadow breaks through dawn today
(You’ll never take me on)
I’m here, I’m standing strong
(Yes I’m original)
Can't count me out, I’ll run the race
(We’re going off to war)
We rise (we rise!)
We fight (we fight!)
We won

This absolution, release me from my fall
Serenity impending abiotic phobia

Please tell me why are we still fighting waging wars
Each day another battle take is all in stride
Look in my face and tell me what’s worth fighting for
We know the answer so we rise (we rise!)
We fight (we fight!)
We’re wandering (We are invincible)
through light that pierces dawn today
(You’ll never take us on)
Still here, still standing strong
(we’re the originals)
Can’t hold us down
We know our place
(We’re going off to war)
We rise (we rise!)
We fight (we fight!)
We won

Rhiz Up (Demo)

Don’t question my conviction
I’ll show you my resolve
You’re a provisional reprieve 
I’m ready for the plunge
Into the silence
Among those who’ve been bound so long
Open my eyes and gouge the sacrificial lying scum

You can’t erase your shame
Don’t hesitate to feed it
You could have laid your claim
Instead you’re barely breathing

Calamity!
That artificial notion it’s a fantasy
Repression only leads to atrophy
Discover your desires with alacrity
Then turn your back and leave them

I understand your anger
I know it all too well
You’ve been the victim of the trauma that was fed to you

And now you suffocate
Choking beneath the pressure
Another slave to fate
Hopeless in your endeavor

Calamity!
That artificial notion it’s a fantasy
Repression only leads to atrophy
Discover your desires with alacrity
Then turn your back and leave them

Don’t question my conviction
I’ll show you my resolve
You’re a provisional reprieve 
I’m ready for the plunge
Into the silence
Among those who’ve been bound so long
Open my eyes and gouge the sacrificial lying scum

Calamity
That artificial notion it’s a fantasy
Repression only leads to atrophy
Discover your desires with alacrity
Then turn your back and leave this tragedy 
(The whole way down, with every breath I’m sinking deeper)
The scope of your desires cause you agony 
(The whole way down, look at me as I dissolve)
Obsession turning into apathy 
(The whole way down, with every breath I’m sinking deeper)
Reject the need to entertain the fallacy 
(The whole way down, look at me as I dissolve)
You know you’re barely breathing
You're barely breathing

Barely Breathing (Demo)

Why? Why did you have to do this
It could have gone another way
You told me this would be painless
I’ll never forget this, this strain
But I’ll give you another chance
Hear these words

Repent!
You’ll get back on your feet again
You’ll learn you reap all that you sow
Don’t ever assume you’ll have the pleasure of my heart
It has grown cold to you

Surrounded by blinding commotion
My mind’s awake but I can’t feel my soul yet

Assent
Blacken the skies with malcontent
Rain down despair on those below
It’s not too late to break down the walls around you
Direct your focus inward
There you will find the fortitude to press on

Onward we march for the ones who gave us 
Every part of our stalwart defenses against the nameless
Heaven save us all

From all these deceivers
It’s all corroding
It’s presence haunting
Inside you’ll find the answer
Don’t stare too long, it’ll pull you under

Hold steady the flame of emotion
Caught inside the undertow of violence

This is our mission
Repairing this division
Turning our gazes inward
There we find the fortitude we need to press on

Onward we march for the ones!
Stalwart defenses against the nameless
Heaven save us all

Against The Nameless (Demo)

My soul is burning, singing in the flames of your wrath
Please give me this one chance to prove to you my worthiness
This mortal prison won’t hold me down
This cycle will not dictate my life
Show me the reason for us to pursue
Those who hurt us, want us bound

Caught in a lie
I’m terrified
I trusted you, and you abandoned me
So trapped in time, petrified
I gave my heart and in return I got misery
We’re too maligned 
We can’t amend

Will you please understand me
I feel alone in this
Carry this weight with me and guide me toward a righteous path
Palpable tension
You feel it now

Caught in a lie
I’m terrified
I trusted you, and you abandoned me
So trapped in time, petrified
I gave my heart and in return I got misery
We’re too maligned 
We can’t amend

Drink your poison
Burn your bridges
Join the dissidents
Take hold of your crown

I tried to tell you that it’s my time to leave this world behind but I’m….

Caught in a lie
I’m terrified
I trusted you, and you abandoned me
So trapped in time,  petrified
I gave my heart and in return I got misery
We’re too maligned 
We can’t amend
Can’t amend

Deceiver (Demo)

Lyrics:

Don’t you make a sound

Solemn and solitary
Punished for the wrongs I’ve wrought
Unholy adversary
The battles fought, the war was lost

Parts of me lay dead and buried
Paralysis creeping inside
Become extraordinary 
It’s scary when two worlds collide

I came to you for the truth and all you said was
Don’t you make a sound
Sounding like poison in my ear
I thought I told you 

I’m tired of being stifled
I’ll show you I’m not afraid
Up against a bitter rival
Still I’ll find that road to victory

I’m bringing you untold violence
Get ready cause you’re to blame
I’ll never be the silenced
You won’t ever take my voice away

Don’t you ever make a sound again
I don’t permit you to speak
Hold your tongue

Never been one to follow
All the rules they made for me
Your threats empty and hollow
I broke the bonds and now I’m free

Cause I came to you for the truth and all you said was
Don’t you make a sound
Sounding like poison in my ear
I know the antidote

Can’t restrain me

Your venom still courses through my veins
I’m broken and bleeding from your disdain
I’ll crawl through the fires of your hate
Just to reclaim the strength of my name

Cause I came to you for the truth and all you said was
Don’t you make a fucking sound
Sounding like poison in my ear
I hear it clearly now

I know what’s best for you
I know what you need
Just trust me
I know in time you’ll see

I know the way
I know your destiny
Just surrender
Give yourself to me
