Beast
Slaughter To Prevail Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Living hundreds of lives exactly like one
The look is directed to the heavens but it is silent
Killing hope in you
You are damned!
I am here for what would destroy your stereotype riddled with
Lies to the bone! The whole world wants to do so would have
Killed you, in this world there are no people!
Father take away my ashes to the earth!
After going through the fire
I will not kill!
Mother come up and give us the light to see the light and see
Death, to see sin! Alien wants to ascend to the throne!
Decorate your temple pain, and become us
There is a war!
Every sixth person on the side of evil! There is a war for you!
6 6 6!
The time has come, and each will be judged on their business,
And everyone will be on someone else's lie the graves
And each will be cast as Eve and Adam.
The chaos and false your God!
Now there is no salvation but only the bold will leave No
Salvation for those who fear moving
Come pain!
As your god will come to you?
Satan take away! How is your God will come to you?
Your face
Satan!
The lyrics to Slaughter To Prevail's song Beast are complex and thought-provoking, but at the core, they speak about a person's inner turmoil and the war between good and evil that rages within. The opening lines "Bleed the soul of the earth, your conscience screaming/Living hundreds of lives exactly like one" suggest that the singer is experiencing an existential crisis, feeling disconnected from the world around them, and questioning the value of their existence. The next lines, "The look is directed to the heavens but it is silent/Killing hope in you/You are damned!" suggest that the person feels isolated and abandoned by the divine or by society, leading to a sense of despair and condemnation.
The chorus of the song contains some of the most powerful and memorable lines, with the singer declaring that they are "here for what would destroy your stereotype riddled with/Lies to the bone!" They go on to question the validity of social norms and structures, stating that "there are no people!" and "there is no them!" The lyrics suggest that the person feels like an outsider or even an outcast, with their perspective and experiences falling outside of what is considered normal or acceptable. They call for change, for a new way of seeing and being that breaks free from the constraints of the past.
The final lines of the song suggest a yearning for release and transcendence, with the person calling out for their parents ("Father take away my ashes to the earth!/Mother come up and give us the light to see the light and see/Death, to see sin!") and invoking Satan as a figure of liberation and salvation. The song ends on a note of defiance and acceptance, with the person acknowledging that salvation may not be possible and that they must embrace pain and the unknown to move forward.
Line by Line Meaning
Bleed the soul of the earth, your conscience screaming
Drain the essence of the planet, your inner voice shrieks in agony
Living hundreds of lives exactly like one
Existing through numerous lifetimes that all blend together
The look is directed to the heavens but it is silent
Eyes gaze upwards but with no vocal expression
Killing hope in you
Crushing the optimism within
You are damned!
You're condemned to suffer
I am here for what would destroy your stereotype riddled with
Present to abolish the predetermined perceptions you have
Lies to the bone! The whole world wants to do so would have
Fabrications ingrained to the core! Entire planet wishes to fulfill
Killed you, in this world there are no people!
Murdering your existence in a world without humanity!
There is no them!
No distinction between us and them
Father take away my ashes to the earth!
Dad, scatter my remains across the land
After going through the fire
After surviving the inferno
I will not kill!
I refuse to commit murder
Mother come up and give us the light to see the light and see
Mom, provide the illumination to perceive the truth
Death, to see sin! Alien wants to ascend to the throne!
Perception of mortality, realization of wrongdoing! Extraterrestrial seeks power
Decorate your temple pain, and become us
Adorn your physical vessel with anguish and become like us
There is a war!
A conflict is raging
Every sixth person on the side of evil! There is a war for you!
One in six individuals aligned with malevolence! This battle concerns you!
6 6 6!
Six hundred sixty-six!
The time has come, and each will be judged on their business,
The moment has arrived, and everyone will be assessed based on their undertakings,
And everyone will be on someone else's lie the graves
All will be buried in someone else's deceit
And each will be cast as Eve and Adam.
Each individual will personify Eve and Adam
The chaos and false your God!
The confusion and deception of your deity
Now there is no salvation but only the bold will leave No
Currently, no redemption, only the brave will escape
Salvation for those who fear moving
Deliverance for those apprehensive of change
Come pain!
Pain, arrive!
As your god will come to you?
How will your god approach you?
Satan take away! How is your God will come to you?
Satan, remove it! In what manner will your god appear to you?
Your face
Your countenance

Thats how it is with alot of deathcore bands. Everyone seens them as evil but really they're the nicest people you'll meet.
