I mean. They put out an almost 17 minute long song, this song being more akin to what Spencer would release on endur, and then blood eagle reminding us that periphery can still hit the berserker button. This album is definitely a whole different entity from every other release

Chorus] We are the earth We are the sky Immortalized We are the body and the mind The ancient tribe If we could only stop the beating Keeping our pulses from retreating We are the heart One vicious heart Don't let it die [Verse 1] A piece of us has shifted sideways and all dignity slips away A priest, a god live in your beliefs An escape from what still remains You can't arrest in the peace when violence is no use We take the measures, so fuck the poison that's slowly killing you When living life is a feat and nothing's right with the youth You drink the poison or pour it out because it's slowly killing you [Chorus] We are the earth We are the sky Immortalized We are the body and the mind The ancient tribe (We are the ancient tribe) If we could only stop the beating Keep our pulses from retreating We are the heart One vicious heart Don't let it die [Post-Chorus] Don't let it die Die, die Don't let it die Die, die We are the heart One vicious heart Don't let it die We are the earth We are the sky Immortalized [Bridge] Further we move, the less we are Further we pull, the spool of shit we find Further we move, the less we are Further we pull, the thread of shit unwinds Forever falling forward Relapse elastic on the timeline Regress, rewind We push, we pull Cast a vote for a glass half full Build it up for the afterlife [Chorus] We are the earth We are the sky Immortalized We are the body and the mind The ancient tribe (We are the ancient tribe) If we could only stop the beating Keep our pulses from retreating We are the heart One vicious heart Don't let it die
