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 remains On the day I was born, a guitar in my hands The earth started rumbling a thunderous command To bash and to thrash, to bang my head To smash my guitar, 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 started 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 To bash and to thrash, to bang my head To smash my guitar, and let there be shred
