Bismillah 02:45
The word of His what shall be made Let the world hear to learn his name My voice to spread, drive his message My blade to rule all his actions Bismillah In the name of God Bismillah In the name of God Alter their state, alter their homes Alter their slaves to the holy tome Law of the land, law of the Lord Law under which I am adored Bismillah In the name of God Bismillah In the name of God Mass extinction of your falsified creed All you dreadfully do is watch them bleed Final judgement is down the crimson tide Where the sacred tome has said you shall die
2.
This world of sin, we live in fear The ice is thin, never been so clear Systemization, we'll be no more World domination, paint the world with gore We scream we shout, for what we want They hear the pleas, but they only flaunt Justice is no more, truly it is blind To turn an eye, to destroy mankind No more to fear No more to cry No more of death Strip the power Strip the power
3.
No future No path Nobody has any say Time has seized As anarchy ensues Society crumbled Dead Faith is abandoned Thought is false The master's tongue Persecutes all The falling of heads Has no resolve There is No cure You see them cry, but you lack empathy You see them beg, but you lack mercy You see them die, but you lack humanity There's no hope, we're doomed under law
4.
Horror after horror, hours and days pass by Seeping to our minds, the things that we have seen More will be killed, less will be done Cry to the sky, your thoughts and prayers Run, hide away from your Death, his arm reaching to your Chest, pull away your chance of Life
5.
Harvester of masses Round them up by classes Eviscerate Biased views Twisted thoughts from the left and right Regurgitate their putrid thoughts Choking on the feeble minds Count the heads of all who roam Spit their knowledge from spiked tongues They watch You burn Diffuse Ashes The sky Turns gray World of Ashes You will not Feed me false thoughts You will not Mangle my words You will not Spit on my face You will not Escape bloodshed
6.
Was sentenced to death For what I spoke out. A slither of breath Became my last bout. My freedom of speech Made me be unique. Was able to preach Stood high at my peak. Stand up Rise up Stand up Rise up Shackles on my wrist Rusted blood drips down. My arms theirs to twist My voice theirs to drown. Broken on the ground My eyes black as night. Bones crack as they pound But I stand with might. Stand up Rise up Stand up Rise up

about

Engraved Power is Agon's latest EP release that takes on a completely different tone, sound, and style for Agon's repetoire. Compared to the debut album Hollowed Lake, this project is a more intense listening experience that puts the music right up to your face with pure aggression and power containing chugging riffs, ear grabbing hooks, and chants to rile up crowds. This complete tone shift has been in part due to Agon's musical reflection towards today's political climate. The Trump administration has brought up multiple issues imbedded in the American governmental system that must be dealt with. There is no glorious American Dream and lifestyle that people strive for because the system will not let them achieve it. The system has placed a grand power that affects everyone living, dead, and unborn. It has been an engraved power deeply rooted in the history of the country that has shown a lot more light with these recent years. These songs of religious persecution, systemic oppression, police brutality, mass hysteria, and fear mongering add to the ever-expanding catalogue of protest music that brings more light to the tyrannical systems that control the lives they reign.

Songs were written sporadically between 2018-2020
