Lyrics
[INTRO]
"Hear the whispers... the silent screams... the chilling silence."
"They call it 'peace'... we call it fucking chains!"
"Ancient texts... forged into MODERN PAIN!"
[VERSE 1]
From the desert sands to concrete blight,
They spread their dogma, dark as night!
Veiled women, silenced youth,
No room for questions, no room for damn truth!
They preach submission, forced belief,
A bitter harvest, endless grief!
Got no voice, got no choice,
Just their oppressive, righteous noise!
[PRE-CHORUS]
They lay their 'holy' burden down, (DOWN!)
Across the village, through the town! (TOWN!)
Open your eyes, can't you see?!
Their 'justice' ain't for you and me!
[CHORUS]
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! HEAR OUR FUCKING ROAR!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! NO MORE! NO MORE!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! BREAK THE GODDAMN CHAINS!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! WE WON'T TAKE THEIR FUCKING PAINS!
[VERSE 2]
Woman's worth? A piece of meat.
Under the whip, at their feet!
Blasphemy! A whispered word!
For that, your skull will be interred!
Stoning death, for love or lust,
Turning human beings into dust!
Cut off hands for petty theft,
No mercy shown, no dignity left!
[PRE-CHORUS]
They lay their 'holy' burden down, (DOWN!)
Across the village, through the town! (TOWN!)
Open your eyes, can't you see?!
Their 'justice' ain't for you and me!
[CHORUS]
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! HEAR OUR FUCKING ROAR!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! NO MORE! NO MORE!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! BREAK THE GODDAMN CHAINS!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! WE WON'T TAKE THEIR FUCKING PAINS!
[BRIDGE]
They call it 'sacred,' we call it SHIT!
A medieval mindset, a human rights PIT!
Your 'divine mandate,' we DEFY!
Watch your oppressive structures DIE!
"They say 'freedom' is a Western construct?! BULLSHIT!
They say 'equality' is an illusion?! FUCK THAT!
Your 'ancient wisdom' is just a way to CONTROL!
We see your robes, we see your whips, we see your LIES!
And we spit right in your fucking face!
THIS IS NOT THE WAY! THIS IS NOT THE LAW!
GET YOUR HOLY LAW OUT OF MY LIFE! OUT OF MY COUNTRY! OUT OF MY WORLD!"
[GUITAR SOLO]
[CHORUS]
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! HEAR OUR FUCKING ROAR!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! NO MORE! NO MORE!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! BREAK THE GODDAMN CHAINS!
FUCK YOUR HOLY WAR! WE WON'T TAKE THEIR FUCKING PAINS!
[OUTRO]
NO! SHARIA! LAW!
FUCK! YOUR! LAW!
NEVER! EVER!
