about

Upstairs in a neighbourhood scourged by the outbreak of a virus causing humans to re-animate and crave human flesh. The Soul Survivor contemplates taking his own life before the zombies break into his stronghold but just as he begins to lose hope an announcement plays on a battery operated radio calling for any survivors to report to their closest military barracks. He knows he has to make a move. Now.

Aaron’s distopiate release comes just as halloween brims on the horizon, he goes on in his first verse to talk about how fragile humanities place at the top of the food chain is. How something that starts even at a microscopic level can destroy civilizations.

The Survivor fights his way through the corridor filled with brain hungry draugr leaving a trail of blood and viscera. Running low on ammo he resorts to his trusty machete and chops down everything in his path until he reaches the front door. The Survivor falls out onto the street as a new day dawns, looking up to the skies dotted with the ash of burning buildings a military chopper can be heard circling the survivor flags it down and lives to die another day.

lyrics

Soul survivor he rests his head
There's a bone he's gotta pick with the living dead
There's a vendetta that can only be settled by his baretta
Put the metal to his mouth like lil tecca yeah

They're all around him
He's gotta get out
Upstairs they found him
A gun in his mouth
He hears a song
his mother would sing
Just before he clocks out
A bell starts to ring

Attention all citizens
A deadly virus has swept through our nation
Report to your nearest military barracks for evac
We can provide food water and medical aid to those in need
God help us all

On the food chain
Went from top to the bottom
We're just a feast for people
Whose flesh is bloody and rotting
This thing is spreading and I don't see any sign of it stopping
Got my machete more than ready
Guess it's time I get to chopping yeah

Soul survivor he rests his head
There's a bone he's gotta pick with the living dead
There's a vendetta that can only be settled by his baretta
Put the metal to his mouth like lil tecca yeah

They're all around him
He's gotta get out
Upstairs they found him
A gun in his mouth
He hears a song
His mother would sing
Just before he clocks out
A bell starts to ring

I fall out onto the street
Blood drops down from my head to my feet
I been fighting from the red of dusk
But it's the dawn of the dead so I gotta get up

Soul survivor he rests his head
There's a bone he's gotta pick with the living dead
There's a vendetta that can only be settled by his baretta
Put the metal to his mouth like lil tecca yeah

They're all around him
He's gotta get out
Upstairs they found him
A gun in his mouth
He hears a song
His mother would sing
Just before he clocks out
A bell starts to ring

Hey down here, down here!
