Rapacity in Nature by Ending Tyranny Lyrics
Gluttony in the animal kingdom
Is another example of selfish creatures
Storing food for the winter
Ensure hibernation is survivable
Gather as much food as possible so that the bloodline can
Continue forging on like years before and more to follow
We think of greed as desire for anything related to money
Possessions and power
This is true but only when observing living things
And their behaviors within their respective tribes
Naturally wanting to further their kin in the kingdom
Establishing a family known for strength and supremacy
One who will reign until
A new leader rises through the ranks
Kings shall chose with whom they mate
Selecting as many as inclined
Chances are then increased of furthering
Future familial lines
Bring forth the kill so that he may delegate
Who feeds this day and who is left with the carcass
This is the type of greed that lies within animal instinct
Forever shaping their days of tomorrow
Without ever knowing the ideals of money
Animals’ attitudes are instilled with this desire
This need to battle and overcome anything and everything
Rapacity in nature
Long before mankind
Gluttony trumps over generosity and demonstrates dominance
Perhaps this is how man concocted rule to govern
And alter the outcome for the masses
Humanity is hopeless, doomed!
If we let a small few lead us to the edge of the cliff
Only a matter of time until we’re forced over the cusp
By then it will surely be too late to ever make amends
Is another example of selfish creatures

Gather as much food as possible so that the bloodline can
Continue forging on like years before and more to follow

This is true but only when observing living things
And their behaviors within their respective tribes
Naturally wanting to further their kin in the kingdom
