Nemesis
Earth Crisis Lyrics

Force-fed delusions from the overseer's hands
Being subject to lies and false beliefs forced on us by those in power.

Won't swallow a doctrine that denies the truth
Refusing to accept a system of beliefs that goes against proven facts.

Most absorb the sickness, saturated in the vile, immersed
Many people internalize and accept harmful ideas, becoming engulfed in them.

The weak fall quickly to blind conformity in line
Those who lack strength and individuality easily conform to the majority without questioning it.

I turned myself into a monster
I transformed myself into something fierce and powerful.

To fight against the monsters of the world
To stand up against evil and injustice in the world.

I spared myself the pain they'll suffer
I preempted the suffering I knew I would endure when fighting these battles.

When it all finally comes to haunt
When the consequences of our actions return to us in full force.

The source of the collapse is what taught to pity
Those responsible for the destruction of society try to portray themselves as victims.

Portray themselves as victims, they're the antagonists
Those who commit wrongs act as though they're the ones being wronged.

Dilute to breakdown the ones who resisted with force
Attempt to weaken and destroy those who resist through violence.

Paint their self-defense as acts of aggression to all
Attempt to falsely portray their violence as justified self-defense.

Surrounded by demons that brand me a devil
Encircled by people who label me as evil and malicious.

Each single one thirsts for my blood
Each of them desires to harm me in some way.

Encircled by demons that rush from the shadows
Surrounded by opponents who move swiftly and strike unexpectedly.

I hold strong, repel their attack
I remain steadfast and defend myself against their aggression.

No I, I won't submit
I refuse to surrender or give in to the demands of others.

No I, I won't relent
I refuse to back down or give up in the face of adversity.

Madness is now what is seen as normal
Society has normalized and accepted behavior that is actually insane.

Impulsiveness has been set unchained
People are acting without thinking, and there are no consequences for their actions.

So few question what is encouraged
Very few individuals are brave enough to question the status quo.

Locked inside of an alien's cage
Trapped in a world that is foreign and uncomfortable to me.
