lyrics

Although the dream state fell
Ruins remain
but surely lies beneath
new hope for better terms next step
sacrifice not in vain

Although the dream state fell
New seeds to plant
Something along the way
Greatly misunderstood
A path of doom
In years to come took place

a new establishment, hail
Took on since then, hope
And promised a new day
Left hanging punishment instead
Would haunt this troubled place

While we were busy then
Seeking revenge
Among ghosts of the past
All sides showed no respect to those
Who gave their lives for us


Corruption step by step
Seemed to infest
Took all over the state
In key positions set
Commissioners
In rot they paved their way

this new establishment, set
Failed to bring hope and
And ditched its promises
failures and setbacks were made to
appear as welcome results

a common state Not common sense
reality too far from grace

time went by, 40 years behind us
not a step forward we managed to make
it seems like we missed the point on our part
the legacy handed to us, we disgraced

one massive figure spoke
he spoke of our lost way
words came out of his mouth
the masses they enraged


he spoke of immature
beings pillaging this place
he saw the fault in all
parts but missed truths to say

he never spoke of those
big sharks who should be blamed
but who more guilty than
all us who let them reign

Solo By Anastasses

March or die,
Dilemma hard, defined
Don’t bite
The hand that feeds you
March or die,
You failed to realise
You sold
Your soul in pieces

Solo By Anastasses


March or die
They're choosing wrong or right
Your vote
It Makes no difference
March or die
No way out you will find
Your fate
For ages sealed now

Promised hope
New force is taking on
The more
They change the things the same they are
Even if there
There is a chance to change
Don’t hold your breath
Don’t hope to get away

Live free or die
Ancestors said one time
Those words
they should be your guide
In ages dark
Your principles should keep
your heart
Strong not to give up

Live free or die
Don’t Bow to survive

Silence, tension
Before annihilation
