Jihad Lyrics by Contention

Laying Waste To The Kingdom of Oblivion

2021

Hammers of tempered steel
Swinging in the foundries
Sacred implements of my war
Amassing

Mines glowing deep within
Burning bright through night and day
With the molten distillate
Of my vast and unbound rage

Hollow traitors
Unworthy of mercy
Enemies leveled by
The wheels of the war machine

Setting fire to the temples of ignorance
Laying waste to the kingdom of oblivion

Gnashing swords
Straight and unyielding
Enemies leveled by
The wheels of the war machine

I will not be bound and dragged
By your laws or lawman's grasp
I еvade the dogs and chains
And scorch all earth in my path
I rulе a kingdom of myself
Outside the reach of man
And cast down every traitor
From the highest mountain

Straight edge holy war
I remain unbound
