Hellbearer - Absolution

Prowling the streets in broad daylight
Looking for poverty, searching for a fight
Forcing their will upon the poor
Blue lights cascade as they smash down your doors
Driving a wedge between the people and state
Nothing can repair the rift that they create
Targeting those who cannot defend themselves
Time and time again, they abuse our trust
So sound the sirens and lock all the doors
This is not a show of protective force
Riot shields reflect the fires of revolution
Don't settle for anything but absolution
A crooked smile and a fucking knife in your back
This law enforcement is on the attack
Obeying commands of your tainted king
Stomping on the embers intent on smothering
They wanna silence us all
They wanna silence us all
A protest provoked is an attack on hope
These bastards search for an excuse
To apply brute force their favourite way to enforce
Their toxic oppressive regime
So sound the sirens and lock all the doors
This is not a show of protective force
Riot shields reflect the fires of revolution
Don't settle for anything but absolution
A crooked smile and a fucking knife in your back
This law enforcement is on the attack
Obeying commands of your tainted king
Stomping on the embers intent on smothering
They wanna silence us all
They wanna silence us all
Never stop, never rest
Put the bastards to the test
Never stop, never rest
We will not act at their behest
Never stop, never rest
Put the bastards to the test
Never stop, never rest
We will not act at their behest
