Parasitic
04:42

Symbiotic in nature, parasitic by choice. The involuntary submission of our earth. Destruction brought on by human needs. Forests of gold turned to desserts of greed. Leeching on the celestial rock for life, continuing substance, a plethora of greed and blind actions. Brutal machines, guided by paper gluttony. Advance beyond the phase, symptomatic foreshadowing. Marking the beginning of a new condition, the human condition. Absorbing the essence of our land, abusing the planets gifts. Osmosis into the core of her being. Eruption of greed moves forward in nature's weakness. Bring in your troops, settle in, this planet is doomed. Extinction resumes to forget the uniqueness. Mother nature cringes as her limbs are forested, her chest is mined, body polluted. Parasitic to this host, draining life from it slowly. Leeching onto the rock, the celestial rock for life. Advanced beyond the phase, symptomatic foreshadowing. Marking the new, the new condition.

DFL

These tongues spoken erupt a mass Armageddon. Schizophrenia blurs outside vision. Delusional tunnels remain in vision. A spinning head case entangled in a vortex. This is my decision, place the body upon the table. Limbs locked in, eyes cut open. Watch as I dissect you, the smell of blood to abolish any feeling of remorse. Senses tingle as the inner demon emerges from me. The pain you are about to receive is cursed with forever torment. Once I'm finished with you this torture will continue. I'll be, I'll be, very blunt about this. You're going to drown. Smile for me one last time the sound of blood becomes your final lullaby. Injecting you with serum to make this torture last, I enjoy the fact your heart still beats. You said you wanted to find yourself, so start picking up your pieces.

Shepherd

I've laid dead inside after the knowledge you spoke to me at a young age. Immune to the stories of my fellow man. You told me to put their stories to rest. I tare from the skin you molded for me. I have forsaken them for too long now. My mind aches for I cannot piece together the mysteries that I've betrayed. I do not blame you for your words of wisdom, I blame myself for my own ignorance. For it was I who fell before you with your words repeating in my head. You were my guide for I was the follower. This shell of a man will break from you. This hate is not for you but for I. Mending myself with these words, I scream forgiveness. My inner thoughts will be my own. I bite my own teeth, not because of you my shepherd, because of my own ignorance. I will listen, I will speak. Follow if you must but I must warn you, for these words come with great consequences. For this is what my shepherd warned me of, I speak my heart, I speak my heart to you.

The Hate Subsides

Hearing the disheartened cries of a helpless man, igniting the fire within me I ache for control. Our distance is too far as I reach for your soul. For you have punished yourself while I stood back watching, eagerly waiting for your next foul. I bow my head in shame for it was I who could have lead you to your field of dreams. This darkness picks me, surrounding myself with the hate, I bury my pain deep within. Trapped in a place surrounded by hate. In this room stands a being that is before me whose world crumbles at the slightest touch. I didn't ever want this to become of you. May the days be numbered that I sit back watching you destroy yourself. The hate subsides this feeling of enlightenment. I didn't ever want this to become of you. Believe me when I say. Don't reflect these words of who I am but for who I was. This darkness picks me, surrounding myself with hate. I bury my pain deep within.

Death metal/deathcore hybridization done correct! All the atmospheric passages and samples feel right in place, with great sound. Instrumentation doesn't lack as well, but the vocals could've been a little less upfront. 8.5/10
