The Threat Is Real Lyrics

Justified obliteration, no one cares anymore
The messiah or mass murderer
no controlling who comes through the door

A culture made of cover ups
while leprosy touch their flesh
For backroom meetings and rendezvous
The vultures have come home to nest

The clock runs out
The weakest link
A deadly strike
The threat is real

See the burnished images of a crestfallen agency
Violent conditioning caused the nature of the enemy
Your terminal lack of vision, blinded eyes see no light
A chronic lack of perspective their cancer now eats us alive

A fatal shot
A lust for blood
The final act
The threat is real

Justified obliteration, no one cares anymore
The messiah or mass murderer
no controlling who comes through the door

A culture made of cover ups
while leprosy touch their flesh
For backroom meetings and rendezvous
The vultures have come home to nest

The clock runs out
The weakest link
A deadly strike
The threat is real

A fatal shot
A lust for blood
The final act
The threat is real
