No freedom for the man
With the button in his hand
He will end up
Standing aloneAnd on the day after
All hell breaks loose
The battle will be fought
With stick and stoneThe beast has our backs
Against the wall
And the power to devour
One and allMan must reach a higher plain
For his world to remainFrom this day forward
We must only look ahead
Tomorrow's dreams
May become peace at lastReality is hard to face
'Til everything is lost
There can be no more
Living in the pastThe beast has our backs
Against the wall
And the power to devour
One and allWe create our own destinyTechnology has come at last
Will it bring destruction from the past?
Now will all this wealth
And knowledge ever shield us from the flame?History tells in grim detail
Of mans inhumanity to man
In search of worldly treasure
And to ruleSavage wars raged on and on
As though there was a plan
But battle is the religion of the foolThe beast has our backs
Against the wall
And the power to devour
One and allMan must reach that higher plain
For his world to remain
