If you're predator Stand face to face with the victim Use your dubious strength ... and deal a lethal blow Be a true predator But do it yourself, with your bare hands Kill...feel free...take life But look in the eyes Deep in the eyes Do not be a coward Can you do that?!

If you’ve created us in your image How full of contradictions you must be, Demon Creation of the human species homosapiens This is your greatest failure ... Lord If you've created creatures so highly intelligent Ambitious, sensitive, valuable and beautiful Why at the same time are they so morally ugly? Rotten, envious, cruel and disgusting Is this a joke? An unsuccessful experiment? Revenge? Or the moment of weakness... At the last moment, everything went out of control In your likeness...Lord, you created monsters.

Człowieku... Tak dumny jesteś, tak wyniosły zarazem Nie wierzysz czasem zbytnio w swą wartość? Człowieku…tak mocno swój rozwój cenisz Czy nie za bardzo swą egzystencję wielbisz? Człowieku gnijesz, zatruwasz siebie W żółci własnej swe życie trawisz Tak wiele potrafisz, tak wiele możesz Tak mało rozumiesz, tak wiele tracisz. Na końcu tunelu nie ma już światła Czarny wschód słońca, ciemność nastała Człowieku...zaprzepaściłeś ludzkość Nastała pustka i wieczna ciemność

Father, who art in heaven Are you almighty...are you? I am trying to grasp you...as a father But although I am one myself I do not understand you To sacrifice your own child for our sins? Explain it to me please, I can not believe it What kind of a father sentences his son to suffer? I can not get it in my head I will never understand it Father, who art in heaven How thy name can be hallowed? A few thousand years already In fear and suffering, you build your kingdom You don't take prisoners, you don’t save the faithful With promise of paradise, you tempt your followers

Shame on you 03:24
Swallowing your own tail Getting deeper and deeper You're choking and dying As you wish Through your pride Because you are blind With your own silliness Because you're guilty Shame on you, human ... that you exist and destroy all You rape, hurt, exploit and kill There is no animal more cruel than you!

(John Milton's “Paradise lost”: Book 1, 106-116) (...) All is not lost; the unconquerable Will, And study of revenge, immortal hate, And courage never to submit or yield: And what is else not to be overcome? That Glory never shall his wrath or might Extort from me. To bow and sue for grace With suppliant knee, and deifie his power Who from the terrour of this Arm so late Doubted his Empire, that were low indeed, That were an ignominy and shame beneath This downfall (...);

Venom 06:04
Can a child have a poisoned heart? It learns everything from us It's like a clean state Clean, innocent, receptive and trusting Venom that flows in our veins It pushes slowly into their little minds Venom that poisoned our hearts It sprouts in them and flows on ... without end The world in which they have to live is burning Like a black hole, it absorbs everything and everyone The world we brought them to Sooner or later will fall Burying us and our relatives

Patient, understanding, harsh, powerful Goddess, mother earth, cruel and beautiful A witness of the evolution and fall of Men Sacrum, profanum, alpha & omega Abused, disgraced, used She looks angry and looks after her torturer Woe to you fools...I say woe! Conflagration and anger ... anger and abhorrence

(John Milton's “Paradise lost”: Book 1, 250-263) (...) Hail horrours, hail Infernal world, and thou profoundest Hell Receive thy new Possessor: One who brings A mind not to be chang'd by Place or Time. The mind is its own place, and in it self Can make a Heav'n of Hell, a Hell of Heav'n. What matter where, if I be still the same, And what I should be, all but less then he Whom Thunder hath made greater? Here at least We shall be free; th' Almighty hath not built Here for his envy, will not drive us hence: Here we may reign secure, and in my choyce To reign is worth ambition though in Hell: Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav'n.

Downfall 03:05
No civilization is eternal Regardless of how much it will do for humanity Every empire sooner or later falls By insatiability the road to hell is paved Man takes much more than he gives He destroys all that stands on its way I despise a man, so much I despise The human species...let it die!

Hiena 05:20
Prześladuje mnie i niepokoi Nie daje o sobie zapomnieć Zatruwa mój umysł Wciąż puka do moich drzwi Strach...zamęcza ofiarę...ta hiena...na śmierć Staram się go zrozumieć Poznać, oswoić, okiełznać Ale on zawsze wraca Chodzi za mną Jest jak cień Strach...ta hiena...jest jak cień Jestem na przegranej pozycji Bo on nigdy nie odpuści Muszę go przechytrzyć Muszę od niego być silniejszy Muszę nauczyć się z nim żyć Zdominować go i ujarzmić Strach...zamęcza ofiarę...na śmierć...ta hiena
