Its sound, consequence of an old school approach mixed with original and atmospheric bits, as well as a dreadful anti-humanitarian concept expressed by lyrics and aesthetics, are addressed towards the possession of the miserable spirit of their listeners.
Formed in 2013, the band released its debut demo “Anti-Human” in 2015 sharing its mankind-aversion propaganda among the black metal masses, and attracted increasing attention on NahemiA’s manifesto of hate and misery.
9Mm
Nahemia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ten years at hand
No where to live
No where to go
There is only one bullet left
Do yourself a favour
And blow your brains out
This is misanthropic war
Where there is only yes or no
You either fight with us
Or execute yourself
One step closer
To Failure
Just pull the trigger
And execute yourself
This 9mm is the last thing you will ever feel
This isn't the end, it is the ultimate beginning
One step closer
To Failure
Just pull the Trigger
And execute yourself
Have your final moment
Then execute yourself
There is only one bullet left
Do yourself a favour
And blow your brains out
This 9mm is the last thing you will ever feel
This isn't the end, it is the ultimate beginning
The lyrics in "9Mm" by Nahemia are very powerful and intense. The theme of the song seems to revolve around the idea of feeling trapped and helpless, with no escape from the pain and suffering of life. The symbolism of the 9mm bullet is used throughout the song to represent the final solution to this struggle.
The opening lines of the song, "Lies in death, Ten years at hand, No where to live, No where to go," set the tone for the rest of the lyrics. The singer of the song is clearly feeling a sense of hopelessness and despair, with no clear path forward. The repetition of the phrase "execute yourself" gives the song a very intense and violent edge.
As the song progresses, the singer becomes more and more desperate. The lyrics "One step closer To Failure Just pull the trigger And execute yourself" highlight the feeling of being at the edge of the abyss, with no way to move forward or turn back. The theme of the ultimate end runs through the song, with the singer encouraging the listener to take control of their own fate and end their suffering.
