EYES ON THE CROWN Here we go, into the flood again Same resolve, always and ever been Tide of will, river become a sea Bed of rage, now positivity and its getting fucking stronger We’ve come around, circle of full degree Staring now, into eternity Look around, piled up, our enemies Victims all, of mediocrity And the number is getting higher Follow me down, see where the light goes Open your mind, here comes the proof Follow me down, see where the night goes Eyes on the crown. Don’t ever write us off again I am the man who will find a solution, if it takes me a whole life I am the man who destroys provocation, cause I lead with the right I am the fool who believes absolutely, in a cause far beyond I’ll never buy any lies that you sell me, my mind is too strong.

Devolution 03:02
DEVOLUTION The dust has settled now A red sun become clear With blurry eyes we view the waste Of another mistake Pull the lessons from the fire Overwhelm desire Seen it all in time dividing sands In the blackened mire A new sun rises over everything Shows its light then takes it back again Its devolution Your self-pollution We’re all too blame So now a scorched Earth Has birthed an ugly truth With no guilt we whip the saint While we punish the youth Pull the lessons from the fire Overwhelm desire Seen it all in time dividing sands In the blackened mire A new sun rises over everything Shows its light then takes it back again Its devolution Your self-pollution We’re all to blame (Where the fuck do we go from here?)

PITY FOR THE HAUNTED Have you seen my dignity? Did you see where I left hope? Trapped here in this cage of flesh Down corridors I float Brother, sister, mother, son Luck decides the victim Time is just a bomb for some Cannot stop the ticking All consuming paranoia Falling under the weight of the world Break of day a silent torture Back under a rock you curl Wandering around in circles Seconds, hours one the same Everyone around you sleeping Oblivious to silent pain Slow decay in perfect order Pills to sleep and more to wake Scene is set for tragic ending Reaching out does not a weakling make Just say the word, and I will try to help you I cant save the world, but I can wait here with you Now the shell has grown a smile Take the hope and share it out Walls dissolve and let the day in Higher learning ends the doubt Open eyes to understanding Home, compassion, love and light Make a fist and think of nothing But the end of hopeless night

THE BALLAD OF BUBBA J. WHITE A fine time for drinking like a demon Blind-eyed and a crooked smile No rest for the wretched or the wicked Buckle in and enjoy the ride Loose lipped and getting kind rowdy Stump dumb from the bubblin’ brown Same stink as an old abandoned pony No master to pull the reins down. I still got the mind of a child And the soul of a dirty clown (He’s an animal) You can’t think why you keep me around Twelve noon and high time for violence Saddled up in a rockin’ chair Eyes blazin’ like a fire in the distance Sheet white and tar black hair Day dreamin’ of bloodlust and vengeance Shuffle over to my Daddy’s grave Gun cocked and pointed at my temple Looking up to the sky to wash me I still got the mind of a child And the soul of a dirty clown (He’s an animal) You can’t think why you keep me around My eyes are taking forever Just to roll back in my head Can’t wait to hear that bullet sound. Last time I’ll be visiting the cabin Beg a lesson from the preacher man Heart pounding like a hillbilly disco Last rites for the ani-man. He’s an animal

Reckless 03:02
RECKLESS Right now, I cannot see enough to pick up the last one Make my way to the new vessel, no thought of tomorrow Think you know the best of me? You’ve never seen the rest of me I got an evil monster side Pick me off the floor Lets go, pick up the gun and we’ll swing it around some We, the few, who’ll do things you won’t even dream of I got a heart that never dies I got a thirst that doesn’t quit I got a mind set on obliteration and a glass that needs to be filled Hands off, out of my way, I’ve got to take all I can take Don’t care what happens from here, feel like I cannot break Think you know the best of me? You’ve never seen the rest of me I got a Dionysus side Pull me out the door Lets go, pick up the gun and we’ll swing it around some We, the few, who’ll do things you won’t even dream of I got a heart that never dies I got a thirst that doesn’t quit I got a mind set on obliteration and a glass that needs to be filled Fire it up Sink it down Light it up Next in line

SOUTH OF THE BORDER Swollen eyes of opiate see another lost soul on the road Reflections of his own face painted on the thick skin of the toad Months spent sleeping In dirt and shingle Sores wont stop bleeding And the mind often lies Love is all I took from you Hate is all I leave Blood is quick to wash away And time is all I need to kill Let the river take the lost and the sun reclaim the damned Sink alone back into the Earth where the trail of man began I alone now Avenging angel Family, a memory And the only thought that drives me on Love is all I took from you Hate is all I leave Blood is quick to wash away And time is all I need to kill Wrath become my only end Pain will set me free Loneliness my tired friend And death become my bride to be It’s close to over His tired eyes, have seen The closing border Red horizon, cross of grey Greets the hunted man Turn to see, revenge is me Bullets have a better plan

Shiver 02:32
SHIVER Shiver and shake Pray for the futures sake Slither like snakes You make the senses ache Paralyzed, out of hope Holding on to a time gone by It used to be, quality The sterile now is celebrated I and I, purity Scream aloud in the face of liars Shiver and shake Pray for the futures sake Slither like snakes You make the senses ache Fuck the trend, all will end Cannot fake honest intention Idolize, from the heart Trust your soul as well as your mind Take a side, make a choice Give it more than 15 minutes Stand alone, shine a light And do it all for the right reasons I wanna see all the scars and mistakes I wanna breathe in the tainted air Where are the hero’s, the junkies, the leaders? Where are the ones who would die for the art? Why are we chasing a lie to be famous? How can you smile when you play a part? Go back where we came Lets sink down the drain

about

Machete Justice New Zealand

Machete Justice is a band that wants to take their brand of metal to the world. Coming from the small but underestimated country of New Zealand, it can be a hard road for metal bands but Machete Justice love a challenge. Their music takes inspiration from the heavy metal and hard rock bands of the 90's and blends those influences with a fresh approach to songwriting.
