Children of Cain
xRepentancex Lyrics

This is your life;
The following lyrics reflect something you are invested in and responsible for.

So far in the margins led
You are struggling to define your identity or to fit in with the mainstream.

Grasping for identity
You are searching for an authentic sense of self.

From the womb of the dead
You come from a lineage or history of oppression or unfulfilled lives.

a pious oath of hatred
You have sworn a promise to a higher power to feel or act in a hateful manner.

A soul possessed by snakes
You are metaphorically, out of control and manipulated by negative influences.

the vocals chords of a masters lungs
You willingly give voice to or are controlled through systematic conditioning.

A eugenic mistake
You are a result or a supporter of practices that are aimed at producing a perfect or superior races.

A nationalistic pride so strong it compels you to hate
Your intense love for your country makes you feel compelled to act or feel a certain way towards those who are different from you.

so in awe of the black and white you're a slave to the state
You have become hypnotized by the idea of clear divide or distinguish between what is right or wrong and hence are held captive by the government.

You can't see the richness
You are unable to appreciate or recognize the value of something.

in a cross cultural bond
You are bound by the mixing of different cultures.

implying a sickness
The very implication of the above idea makes you feel disgusted or unwell.

from the eden beyond
At your core, you believe this is not how things were meant to be.

your a whole existence, a disease
You feel like you are a problem, contaminating and polluting the environment.

I pray to humanity,
The artist is wishing or hoping for support and empathy from the human race.

for the force of the sun
They are hopeful for a different kind of powerful change to come.

to drown your wretched entity
This change should be severe enough to put an end to your influence.

in a sea of flames
The hope is that this change is so devastating that it is represented by an all-consuming fire.

So afraid of change it shakes you
You are so shaken up by the idea of change that it terrifies you.

To your rotting core
This fear is entrenched deep within you at the most basic level.

Clinging on to an abstract notion that you never even knew.
You are holding on firmly to an idea that is easily provable as false or made up.

the bleeding hearts of hatred crusaders for a master race
People who excessively and foolishly support the idea of a superior race are the very thing that they fight against, they lack any form of genuine empathy to human beings.

A plague of shining savior's clad in the robes of disgrace
People who think they are saving the world with their ideas have actually been disgraced through their inappropriate use of power or influence.
