There's no salvation - Doom!!!

No matter who is who

Doom...
The lyrics to Soulfly's song, "Doom," speak of a post-apocalyptic world where the end is near and there is no salvation or redemption for anyone. The repetition of the phrase "Welcome to planet - Doom!!!" emphasizes the hopelessness and despair of the situation. The dark side of the world is highlighted as everything crumbles and falls apart - from buildings collapsing to empires falling into ruins. The image of a death squad and the killing fields further reinforces the darkness and sense of impending doom.
Despite the bleakness, the lyrics also call to action as the guns are raised in defiance and the march of doom begins. The repeated lines of "Scream Motherfucker..." serve as a rallying cry for the listener to join in the battle against the end times. The song seems to suggest that even in the worst of circumstances, there can still be a glimmer of hope through coming together and fighting for survival.
Overall, "Doom" is a powerful anthem for those living in challenging times who refuse to give up and continue to fight against the odds.
