Aquatica |
In the future year — 2023 |
Multinational warlords — build an aquatic colony |
In the struggle for — total domination |
Corporate powers — move in to take control |
Stratagem inset |
Manipulate the opposition |
Wrath of devastation |
To reduce life status |
Martial law declared — surveilance over the colonies |
Wage and mayhem — put to an end momentarily |
Resolving confrontations — over territorial disputes |
Battles break out — when negotiations crumble |
Charred remains |
Washing to the shore |
Escaped ones flee |
To the surface |
Vessels patrol |
The ocean floor |
Maintaining border dominion |
Through eradication of organisms |
Sea and surface life |
All is sacrificed |
In quest for |
Reign of the deep |
Whosoever |
Masters the seas |
The last remaining frontier |
Gains the wealth locked in the brine |
Precious minerals sought — by the surface |
Hostile takeover of — the mining communities |
Stormtroopers of technology |
Careful to maintain nitrogen balance |
Surgically removing |
The enemy within |
New leaders create — order out of chaos |
A civilization — beneath the depths |
Arson of power |
Conquering the oceans — Forming imbalance |
Particles react |
Expire life from — the precious seas |
Thresholds mend |
Sludge chain reaction — melts them down again |
Depth charge |
Destabilizing crust — and floor |
Instructed probes |
Sear the water from — the toxic veil |
Weapons system |
Tear the living — from their glory |
Vandal masters |
Carving up — the biosystem |
Submerged deep |
Fatal dictatorship — of the seas |
(spoken verse) |
Surface dwellers tremble |
From a new superpower |
Superior intellect choosing |
Base in the seas |
Systematically eliminating |
All who do not take heed |
Stench of the aftermath |
Confirms Aquatica’s victory |
No longer shall there be |
Any separations between cultures |
Remaining survivors cast into a |
Melting pot of conglomerate slavery |
Absolute extinction of the once |
Praised heroic patriot |
Lands of solid ground turned into |
A biodegradable human wastleland |
Pay homage to the ocean |
Where the kingdom now dwells |
Aquatica, the submerged city |
