SHADOW OF INTENT - Flying the Black Flag (Official Music Video)

Footage filmed and edited by Salopiandan Produced by Chris Wiseman, Blake Mullens, and Dave Otero Lyrics: A subterfuge emerges from the confusion Corrupting patterns, piercing the timeline A trail left emblazoned with no regard They fly the black flag high Ubiquitous backstab Maddened insurrectional acts Rampant misinformation Slaughter of defectors These great tides of change usher the new Those who can withstand the pressure offer resistance, quickly slipping between the cracks The path towards ascendancy lays at the extent of their reach Infinite interstellar genocide at their feet Annihilation necessary Destiny complete Every last soul, by their hands, deceased Throats slit before devout and jeering swaths The separation further persists A force of paralyzed minds Prejudice and murder through fear Remaining deaf and blind An ideology to evolve, alas Harsh betrayal Abandoned to the past Explosive Dismantled and devastated Forcing new subjects, they carry out deeds of carnage Slicing and dicing Disintegrate, obliterate An ancient subterfuge spawned out of pure ignorance Civilized erosion highlighting their human nature Ideological forsakers are stripped down and cast into the light Throats slit before devout and jeering swaths With or against, it matters not Entrapped betwixt tandem forces clashing are the abandoned, unfortunate Void of regard They fly the black flag high Spewing of hatred through messages written in blood Effectively defecating into the mouths of their brethren
