Let There Be Shred

The stage has been lit, get up on your feet

Hearts start to pound; everyone get off your seat

My fingers spontaneously

combust into flames

Destroying pretenders, only ashes remain

On the day I was born, a guitar in my hands

[00.55.00] The earth started rumbling a thunderous command

To bash and to thrash, to bang my head

To smash my guitar and Let There Be Shred

The amps start to roar, a tsunami of sound

Controlling the air

shaking the ground

Guitars are all screaming, they squeal with delight

Clawing fretboards away

at the speed of light

On the day I was born, a guitar in my hands

The earth startеd rumbling a thunderous command

To bash and to thrash, to bang my head

To smash my guitar and Let there be shred

At the end of it all, they are left in my wake

One-by-one they’d fall, one-by-one they’d break

Faster than lightning, a machine gun on meth

Dead on arrival, a guitar beat to death

On the day I was born, a guitar in my hands

The earth started rumbling a thunderous command

[03:41:00] To bash and to thrash, to bang my head

To smash my guitar and Let There Be Shred
