Godlike - Greed

music video for our demo`s opening track called "greed". hope you enjoy!

LYRICS:

Band: Godlike
Song: Greed

We`re nothing but pawns on a chessboard
White always makes the first move
You got to eat or become fucking eaten alive
Let`s propose a toast for us all who die

Keep raising the taxes, we fight with the axes
we form tag teams against your black deals
Iraq seems to be the main source
what you need for the gas you take by the force
It`s a vicious green machine without a collar
release the beast to get another dollar
Money counts, body counts, large amounts
Uncle Sam want`s war to get more funds

We`re nothing but pawns on a chessboard
White always makes the first move
You got to eat or become fucking eaten alive
Let`s propose a toast for us all who die

Push the soldiers into the meatgrinder, the people
get blinder, I wouldn`t wanna be a reminder
But the era of terror is made by politics
to sustain the strenght of economy
If you got bullets but you got no clip
you ain`t got shit, that`s what I`m talking about
Money brings power, power brings money
try to maintain the peace but everybody`s running

"Greed! Oh would you die with me?
Would you enjoy the greed?"

Tic tac Tic tac clock is ticking
and everybody`s flipping, the world is tripping
I`m just sitting here quiet and still
waiting for a special news bullet-in
The Russia, The States or North Korea
if you push red button you better hurry up
Mankind`s death is an act of heroism
an excuse to prevent the terrorism

"Greed! Oh would you die with me?
Would you enjoy the greed?"

Would you give your life for a mineral?
And arrange your own pretty funeral?

why you are so stiff? move a little bit. Video is not everything

[GodlikeProfile]

@sokol358

yep. we know. that was the actual footage from the studio when recording "greed", that`s why we were so focused and tried to play/sing as sharp as we could. live performance is a whole new deal: that`s when we mosh and put the energy into our playing. also when making this video we didn`t have any other material of the band playing. sorry and thank you :)

Yeah....the only footage that we had of our band was just us making the demo at the D-Studio. We`ll try to get some nice live footage here at some point :) Cuz we DO love what we do ;)

[R4m3Nz]

The guys need more attitude for a great song like this ! :P

[hgsgidshihogs]

Fucking outstanding, great job! More people to notice you! It makes me sad that this doesn't have atleast 100,000's views. Or something! Because you guys are awesome.

[Flowiner]

I love the voice ! :3

[geeghoul]

Amazing song. Amazing lyrics.

[Schmoley2]

I don't normally read videos sent to me in PMs, but I decided to click on this one. Pretty damn good song there :D felt the english could have been a bit clearer during the verses, but that's just a minor concern (I assume you're Finnish given the website url)

Overall a good song, with a good balance of instruments/vocals/lyrics. Hope to see more =)

[FalseKingPseudo]

a metal band that talks about the problems in this country *AMAZING* i can totally see this being in a movie in the future, good luck with your band and keep rockin'

[HundredsOfAdjuchas]
