Shadow State Lyrics - Singles - Down Royale

Invade, colonize, infect and destroy identity 

Deny repent and unify the minority 

In this possession, abandon and existence smothered by ignorance 

Stripped of all autonomy, invalid reasoning 

Extract all life and restructure 

Destroying sacred ties 

A nation built on lies and genocide 

Fueled by corporate greed 

An inhumane authority 

Erase, replicate and deny 

Defy your own intelligence 

Masterful negligence 

Diplomatic saviour? 

Exiled and forced to the shadows 

Eradicate and wipe the slate 

No tolerance of difference 

Annihilation 

Assimilate and put your faith into a system that takes 

That breaks everything you are 

Dispossession - a process of catastrophic regress 

An entity of concentrated self-indulgent dominance 

Decolonize 

Self-determinate 

Abort this social contortion and re-invent 

Skeptics conceptualize a shadow state 

Invade 

Mislead the blind to infect 

No room for good will 

In this shadow state 

Assimilate and put your faith into a system that takes 

That breaks everything you are 

Eradicate, connectedness, white nothingness 

Forget who you are 

Abandon reason, Unify
