Lyrics
Slum River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Kids grow up in the ghetto
A playground battlefield of their own
No cries for reform, know what's in store
Building a death camp from within
(chorus)
But slum river is a purification
For the ghetto masses
Where the dead don't rise til the police find them
Minds are a place with decedent
Species
Unity in blood, murder and disease
Prompt in a cage of war baked vengeance
Chaos and judgement 'til today
(chorus)
Guns and knives become your lives
It's not survival they're on the attack
With dollar signs in their eyes
If they target you, you're gonna die
(chorus)
Dogs of war now roam the streets
Stand behind this eternal defeat
The fall of rome was never so close
It's apocalypse, starting slow
(chorus)
