Hive Mind
Beyond Grace
Rejoice, rejoice, for you have all been called To live and die in service of a greater cause To offer up your lives like wheat before the unforgiving scythe In holy martyrdom, a willing sacrifice Keep the faith, and reap the harvest But first you must be fruitful, breed and spread the gospel And if they will not hear you, then they will learn to fear you Indoctrinating the youth Control the future, dictate the truth Swarming like locusts we spread from the hive Certain of purpose and single of mind We are the chosen, children of the lord Sworn to spread salvation… Obey, obey, and all will be forgiven In the act of your contrition you will be absolved You shall be the vessel, from which we shall bring forth A quiverfull of children born to inherit and conquer by faith or by force Inheritors of our design Messengers of mercy, arbiters of who is worthy Armoured by belief Ready and willing All of us armed to the teeth Swarming like locusts we spread from the hive Certain of purpose and single of mind We are the chosen, children of the lord Sworn to spread salvation by the sermon or the sword This is how it always happens, faith begets fanaticism A viral strain of madness bordering on masochism Conditioned to believe that... We are the chosen, the favoured children Glorious of purpose, both a blessing and a burden Commanded to convert, and spread our creed across the earth So blessed be the fruit, that the lord shall open Every seed another soldier, every womb another weapon And every honoured mother Another martyr for the cause

"If you want Death Metal that smashes your face into the pavement but in a really smart and precise way, Beyond Grace have just the beatdown for you." - Metal Sucks
