Lyrics

Can’t move an inch but for the act to
Leave fingerprints, freedom farewell !
Look in the lens, answer the questions
Are you a threat ?

Nec plus ultra (No further)
After all the grabbing, it’s time to bite the dust
Leave behind the breaches of my trust
Cleaning up the mess is up to us
Non plus ultra (No further)

Now that all hands are tied, we’re panic stricken, wealth out of sight
Demolition, the damaged pride, the price of ambition

Nec plus ultra (No further)
The current system leads to profit seeking deeds
Leave behind the traces of our blood
Now the course for change is up to us
Non plus ultra (No further)

Now that all hands are tied, we’re panic stricken, wealth out of sight
Demolition, the damaged pride, the price of ambition
Access is now denied, we’re panic stricken, wealth out of sight
Intuition, forgotten guide, the price of suppression

Terre eos vi
Augearis
Perde eos vi
Nobis imperium

Can’t move an inch but for the act to
Leave fingerprints, freedom farewell !
Look in the lens, answer the questions
Will you behave as required ?

When we think the end is here with nearly all faith gone
There is hope along the way and there are new age dawns

“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe that they are free”

Nobis victoria
Non plus ultra

Now that all hands are tied, we’re panic stricken, wealth out of sight
Demolition, the damaged pride, the price of ambition
Access is now denied, we’re panic stricken, wealth out of sight
Intuition, forgotten guide, the price of suppression

Can’t move an inch but for the act to
Leave fingerprints, freedom farewell !
Look in the lens, answer the questions
Will you behave as required ?

When we think the end is here with nearly all faith gone
There is hope along the way and there are new age dawns
When we think the end is here and our faith will disappear
When we think (when we think) the end is here (the end is near) and our faith will disappear

“Chasing our addictions, we’re stunting our growth
Once we get rid of this ballast, we’ll be able to
Restore the balance and distribute our wealth”

Lyrics and translation

Nec plus ultra
Non plus ultra

Terre eos vi
Augearis
Perde eos vi
Nobis imperium

Nobis victoria
Non plus ultra

Last word
No further

Frighten them with might
May you be exalted
Destroy them with might
Power for us

Victory for us
No further
