Lyrics The List - Ingested

The List

There’s still blood to be shed
We’ve cast aside the meat and sinew
No longer bounded by the shackles of our minds
Of course our legacy continues
And when you speak of us you better pick a side
Dismiss?
Negate?
Contempt?
Acclaim that warrants envy
Respect, support and bond
Dedication unrivalled
The ones who did us best, ascend with us to infamy
The rest are left to rot, victims of their blasphemy
Crawl to the back of the line, you’ve made the list, now grow a spine
There is a place, there is a time, we will be one with the divine
This could end tomorrow, try and take it I’ll show no mercy
And still you’d cry but with sorrow, as you drown in mediocrity
This place was made for God, now tell me what you see
Ignore these rival corpses, only truth will set you free
Admit that you were wrong, rejoice in Man’s swansong
You’ll never be our equal, but it’s here where you belong
Deep euphoria, accept, defect
The legends are all true
Intense, both love and fear
Forgiveness is a privilege, atonement’s why we let you in
Oh what a gift we’ve given, born again without your sin
Dismiss?
Negate?
Contempt?
Acclaim that warrants envy
Respect, support and bond
Dedication unrivalled
The ones who did us best, ascend with us to infamy
The rest are left to rot, victims of their blasphemy
Crawl to the back of the line, you’ve made the list, now grow a spine
There is a place, there is a time, we will be one with the divine
This could end tomorrow, try and take it I’ll show no mercy
And still you’d cry but with sorrow, as you drown in mediocrity
This is holy ground, now walk where only gods may tread
Leap now if you’re faithless, obey the words that were not said
This place was made for God, now tell me what you see
Ignore these rival corpses, only truth will set you free
This place was made for God, but Hell is all you see
Self-Impaled before false idols, and blinded by your jealousy
