#219: An Abstract Struggle - Earth From Above

Earth From Above

Genre: Deathcore



Is this what you call perfection?
How can you take something so beautiful, and turn it into darkness?
We were given the world, but we destroyed it.
We were given immortality, but we threw it away.
We were given life, but we killed ourselves.

Everything that our fathers fought for is now distinct and forgotten.
Everything that our fathers died for, is now buried in our ignorance.

Blood was shed on this ground. Blood was shed on this ground.
Blood was shed on this ground. Blood was shed on this ground.
There is an abstract struggle within men, within men.
There is an abstract struggle within men.
There is a war that has been ongoing for ages.
When will we learn that our fight is against a different kind of enemy?
(An abstract struggle. We’ll understand. When we see Christ. When our day comes).

"All wars are civil wars. For all men are brothers."
"All wars are civil wars. For all men are brothers."
The faithful overcome adversity, while others stumble in their own, their own path.
The faithful overcome adversity, while others stumble in their own, their own path.
Evil prevails when good men choose to do nothing.
Evil prevails when good men choose to do nothing.
Evil prevails when good men choose to do nothing.
Evil prevails when good men choose to do nothing.

#217: The Antidote - Earth From Above

Earth From Above

Genre: Deathcore



We were raised by a belief system that fails to pour out the truth.
Do not be misled. Your faith in Christ will save you.
Your antics don’t impress me, you really don’t impress me.
Do not be misled. Your faith in Christ will save you.

So slowly yet surely, this disease begins to demean us.
All along, the antidote was there.
So many of our hearts have been broken.
Far too many lies have been spoken.
The Gospel has power to change these lives.

There are no words left for all of mankind to utterly describe
how merciful and noble the Father is.
Yet your filthy testimony has
suppressed the love that has been so gracefully given... given.

The times that we have wasted and the lives that we have taken away.
In the end we’re all dying, dying for purity.
The times that we have wasted and the lives that we have taken away.
In the end we all are dying, dying for purity.

We were raised by the belief system that fails to pour out the truth.
Do not be misled. Your faith in Christ will save you.
We are walking bombs. Who will save us from our demise?
We are walking bombs. Who will save us from our demise?
I’ve got news for you. I’ve got news for you.
I’ve got news for you. I’ve got news for you.
The burden has been lifted. The burden has been lifted.
The burden has been lifted. The burden has been lifted.

I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.

But the blood of Christ has washed away my shame.
But the blood of Christ has washed away my shame.
So why stand here so filthy?
But the blood of Christ has washed away my shame.
So why stand here so filthy?

But the blood of Christ has washed away my shame.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
I deserve hell for what I’ve done.
