Kill Thy Enemies Lyrics

[Intro]
Kill thy enemies
Forge your destiny
Love will set you free
Rise this dynasty

[Verse 1]
Bloody and belligerent, delusions made of their foment
Agonizing arrogance, white privilege, and the folly of pride
These are the battles of time
Death cult, tired and blind
There is no comprise with their kind
This nation's vast divide

[Chorus]
Kill thy enemy
Forge your destiny
Love will set you free
Rise this dynasty

[Verse 2]
Traitors and seditionists, betray our country to cultists
Hatred and maliciousness, Jim Crow, and a Bible of lies
My heart is turning to stone
Blood oath, iron, and bone
Remembering the wolves are at the gates
These fascists lie in wait
I'm asking you to heed the call

[Chorus]
Kill thy enemies
Forge your destiny
Love will set you free
Rise this dynasty
Our hearts will never bleed
Our strength will never cede
Iron and dignity
Manifest destiny

[Bridge]
Our hearts will never bleed
Our strength will never cede
Iron and dignity
Manifest destiny

[Chorus]
Kill thy enemies
Forge your destiny
Love will set you free
Rise this dynasty

[Outro]
Our hearts will never bleed
Our strength will never cede
Our hearts will never bleed
Our strength will never cede
Our hearts will never bleed
Our strength will never cede

Cover art for Kill Thy Enemies	 lyrics by Machine Head

This track directly follows the previous one, "Assinilate," and this is the beginning of his path to darkness. He's adopted their radical ideologies, joined the death cult, full of the tired and blind. Fear made them slaves to violence, making them ignorant of their white privilege, and believing wholeheartedly that a different kind has polluted the nation. They're being fed a bible of lies, led to support the Jim Crow laws. The Jim Crow laws, which existed from the late 19th to the mid-20th centuries, enforced racial segregation and denied African Americans basic rights; They mandated segregation, limited voting rights, enforced discrimination, and criminalized interracial relationships. These are all the laws the death cult that Eros has been assimilated into believes in. That last law, for interracial relationships, is the main cause of why Eros kills Amythest, but not Ares.

It's not described how she died, whether or not Ares saw her killed or came across the aftermath, but it makes sense in the story as to how he knows Eros is the murderer, and not someone else. I may be wrong in assuming he's white and not another race, and if so, I apologise.
