Beast of Aotearoa Lyrics


Swimming through a depth-less sea of shattered control

While searching for a balance, time it takes it's toll

Caught between the consequences of my actions, the choices that I make

and the reality of a world thrust upon me. What path shall I take?

I am, I am, I am, a

As the offspring of the intrepid who set out in a search for more

The ones who gazed at horizons and dared to leave their shores

In our new lands those who could do thrived

and we made sure those who did not, that they survived

Jack used to be as good as his master, now there’s a gaping fucking rift

We all must unite if we want ourselves to lift

I am, I am, I am, a

I am, I am, I am, a

To the avarice lords who feed us scraps you should heed our call

The Arab Spring can happen here and we will come for you all.

I am a man armed with more than claws and teeth

Yet when you look in these eyes know that I am beast

I am, I am a, I am a beast
