Born to Kill Lyrics

I was born to kill
I was made to slay, unafraid to spill
Blood on the land
When you command I will

I am locked, to fate
Locked to the lives I take
I will never be done
I'll always be hungry

And each final breath i breathe
Burns a bright fire inside of me
And it keeps me alive it keeps me alive, yeah

I was born to kill
I was made to slay, unafraid to feel
Blood on my hands
When you command I will

I am locked, to joy
Locked to the lives I destroy
I will never be dry
I'll never be satisfied

And and each final breath I breathe
Burns a bright fire inside of me
And it keeps me alive, it keeps me alive, yeah

Til the day in the dirt I lie
Til my ashes scatter in the sea
I will not be denied, my destiny, oh

I was born to kill
I was made to slay unafraid to spill
Blood on the land
When you command I will

Born to kill
When you command I will

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
