An Ancient Deception Songtext
von Linear Disorder

Life is just a fight
Of our will to power

Guided by instincts
We struggle to reach the top
It′s written into our blood
To compete and surpass
Blindly following
This law of nature
Neglecting others' freedom
To fuel our greed

We mindlessly follow
This ancient deception
That was inherited
In our own perception

Selfish thoughts that are fueled by
Our will to power
Feeding the greed of our kind
Like there′s no tomorrow


Who is in fact
That the true power holds
The ideal warrior
He has nothing to lose
For him the power
Means no richness in gold
Just honour and faith
In his way of compassion

Some find an excuse
To defend their distorted views
But he will prove to them
They're the ones that lose

Selfish thoughts that are fueled by
Our will to power
Feeding the greed of our kind
Like there's no tomorrow

We mindlessly follow
This ancient deception
That was inherited
In our own perception

Selfish thoughts that are fueled by
Our will to power
Feeding the greed of our kind
Like there′s no tomorrow
