FACING THE GALLOWS
FACING THE GALLOWS - BEYOND THE FIRE
updated 1 year ago
A massive thank you to everyone that made this weekend happen. To the boys that were celebrated, Sunken State, thank you for letting us be apart of this. The show was one for the books, having old pals together and making new ones. Only love for everyone on the bill and to our friends and family who came to celebrate alongside us
Nerves were strong on Saturday... It's been a minute since we stepped on a stage. Not knowing what to expect, how it would all go...
But the fire that was ignited when we hit that first note... 🔥🔥 The energy from the crowd coursing through us... My days does it feel good to be sharing moments with you all again 👏
Every minute felt like a second 💥 Every single person who moshed, surfed, headbanged, sang and screamed with us - you truly make everything about being in a band worth it. ❤️
That was nuts. You lot are crazy. We absolutely love sharing our music with you. 🔥🔥 We cannot wait for the next, bring that A game because honestly it was perfect. 🙌
To our new and old friends:
Sunken State
No Closure
Grift
Ozias

Lyrics:
I wake up paralyzed
Feeling sick to my stomach
I’m feeling fucked
Can’t face the world
Don't want to get up
It's all consuming
Disconnected from my reality
I’m slowly losing
My fucking grip on everything
I’m six feet under water
I’m drowning
I’m buried inside my head
I’m suffocating
I walk with haunted shadows
I’m manic
I’m living with
I'm living with the
I gotta find my way to break the static
All I hear is noise
Can’t shut it off
I cant stand it
My heart is racing
Always on the edge of panicking
It’s overwhelming
I just need an out instead of giving in
I’m six feet under water
I’m drowning
I’m buried inside my head
I’m suffocating
I walk with haunted shadows
I’m manic
I’m living with
I'm living with the dead
Don’t want to face it all
Can’t fight no more
I’m done with this
I've had it
Need a peace of mind
Need to stay in line
Before I’m dead and buried
Fuck
Dead and Buried!
I can’t stop the noise
I’m paranoid
It’s all consuming
Can’t shut out
It never stops
I know I’m giving in
I’m giving in
I’m six feet under water
I’m drowning
I’m buried inside my head
I’m suffocating
I walk with haunted shadows
I’m manic
I’m living with
I'm living with the dead
I’m six feet under water
I’m drowning
I’m buried inside my head
I’m suffocating
I walk with haunted shadows
I’m manic
I’m living with
I'm living with the dead
It's great to have more bands doing these collaborations and especially coming out with something this sick. Remember to keep those eyes peeled because this one is coming in HOT!!!

Tons of love :)
The song has a powerful message that as South African artist, we felt would be more than necessary to put out there. With a ton of work to still be done and having all the bothers and sisters of our scene come together this is going to be a BANGER to say the least. With contrasts across the board giving some tasters of what we have got going on down here in SA, this is an exciting project and one of the first of its kind to take place as a scene in SA. We try our best to push each other as much as we can to help elevate each other to what is out there on the international circuit. Keep your eyes peeled and those ears thirsty because its coming your way and don't be shy to spread the word, SA needs your help to get some of the talents we have closer to your festival grounds
Tonsa love

We did a mini documentary for Metal4Africa Summerfest 2021 talking about our year, what we've been going through and the work on the new album. With a live performance of one of our singles off the new record, giving you a lil taste of what's to come.
We're keeping busy and working harder than ever to keep the FTG Train chugging on it's tracks. Stay connected and check all our updates on...

LYRICS:
Death waits for no-one, he is in control
He takes what belongs to him, takes what he is owed
Death’s eyes are hollow
Your life is at its end
Your skin will start to fold, soon your body will disintegrate
The way you see your own reflection is something you will soon forget
Why can’t we all live forever?
No
Not even time can save you
We are getting older and it’s only getting harder
It’s the passing of an era that inflicts fear upon the mind
Don’t let the thought of non-existence plague your life
Death is waiting, he’s calling out our name
This blood-soaked payment, we’ve owed for the life we’ve lived
Death is waiting, he’s calling out our name
This life’s been jaded, we have no time to give
Go, because everything’s at stake
Make sure your remaining days don't go to waste
There must be something you achieved, something you won’t regret
If you were given one more shot, would you make the best of it?
We are getting older and it’s only getting harder
The time keeper will take what he is owed - a life
The Reaper looms over a walking corpse
Worm food since the day you were born
Death is knocking at my door
When your time is up, and death comes for you, with his cold dead hands
Could you even try to run and hide, could you beg for your life?
If he offered you more grains of sand, would you pay the price in blood?
Would you slit somebody’s fucking throat?
Would you betray the ones you love?

LYRICS:
I'm out on the town and about to get wrecked, with zero fucks and no regrets. I always said, we got nothing to lose, so just get on your feet and fucking move. I’m on top of the world not giving a fuck not living a lie. It doesn’t matter what people think cause I’m living for me now. No consequence, no compromise, got my drink in hand. Let’s smash this party like the dollar fucks the rand. It’s moments like these, that make the best memories. We own the night, we own the night. With friends like these, we’ll burn this place to the ground. We own the night, we own the night. Sometimes you got to lose yourself, so make some noise.

LYRICS:
Scared of this world
Scared of this home
Scared to death of what we all will become
Losing my sight
Losing my hope
Losing my grip on how I will cope
Like oceans approaching the shore
Another thought I can't control
Wild seas and restless weather
These tides of terror are drawing nearer
Sleepless nights from countless worry
Always terrified
I can't go on feeling this way
Got to keep my head above the water
I can't go on living this way
Got to cut loose before I go under
We bare scars on our hearts
The past won't leave us broken
We have the strength to carry on
See how far we’ve come
Look at that new horizon
We have the strength to carry on
Feeling of pain
Crushing of fear
Trembling of thoughts that I will disappear
When will this end?
How will I go?
Give me a reason to remain afloat
Like oceans approaching the shore
They're crashing in
We have come so far in this life
But there's always something waiting
To turn against us in the best of times
When will the tides change
When we can feel safe in our lives
Safe in our homes
Safe in this world
Let's build a better place that we don't fear
A place where we can survive
There's a need to remind ourselves
That there's still hope out there
Our lives can change for a better tomorrow
But we must change ourselves today
There’s hope beyond these tides of terror
We can find our way

Lyrics:
I'm seeking for answers to understand why such a common wealth won't subside,
Is it the power of money that makes you somebody?
My hands are empty, they are clean from the front.
It's all I have to show,
And it's all I have to give.
I'll reside with my family who brought me up to be the perfect prodigy,
Could you prove to me that I would need this to be happy,
I wont dismiss these false assumptions anymore,
I've fucking had it!
Not even all the gold will make my sorrow whole,
Not even riches could light up these eyes.
Your perfect picture of your world will crumble.
Your perfect picture of your world will crumble at my feet!
I will reveal the misconception that creates this monster,
But by no means let it retain me.
It is the common whore, I don't need your gold.
It is my final wish, it is my only demand,
Let impossibilities be soldered together by it.
Man will thus pay the price, this cost of existence.
Money is the imminent possession of man.
Buy your bravery and be brave,
Expect nothing in return from me.
You coward distorting the eyes of the ability of mankind.
