Worship me Follow me Portal to the unknown I lost a bet I owe a soul I’m losing my mind I’ve lost control Sentenced to burn Engulfed in the flames Paint the walls with all my sins And read them for your comfort Temptation leading me closer to death My inner self pushing me straight to the edge Poisoned by my selfish needs My desire has overcome me Help me understand this Chemicals indulge Seep into these bones Heaven’s gates have closed Hell has claimed my soul Temptation leading me closer to death My inner self pushing me straight to the edge Poisoned by my selfish needs My desire has overcome me Fortify your mind As the demons begin to reign, Capturing the souls Of a thousand hateful sins
2.
Forever trapped inside my mind The sight of you, sending chills down my spine I can hear you in the dead of the night Heart beating and my eyes went blind Screaming in my ears but there’s nothing in sight I’m a slave to your memory These thoughts feel like shackles weighing me down Paralyzing me The depths of souls suffering in pain Wandering and thinking of what could be Am I going insane Or does their shadow follow me? It's like a never ending nightmare Caged in this mental disease Ripping flesh and pulling teeth The voices torment me
3.
Laying in the trenches Bullets cover the sky Watching every man fight for his life Who will make it out alive When we’re all sentenced to die Thick smoke, loud cries This burning desire inside Load the clip, I’m ready to die Killing everything in sight Time is up Strike, Reign, Dominate Time is now I’m here to take what’s mine Infiltrating enemy lines Bodies stacking high Battlefield soaking in blood No remorse for what I have done Time is up Strike, Reign, Dominate Time is now I’m here to take what’s mine This world is mine SANCTIONED TERRITORY

End Of Days 01:53
5.
Breathe the words that I say For what I speak is truth You honor those who indulge So I’m refusing you Death from above, there’s nowhere to run Driven by fear, I’m soaked in blood Die by the sword, face down in the dirt Death from above, six feet in the earth Am I the only one? Who is here with me? I am a result Of failure Everyday I take my last breath Pressure is weighing me down I search for help Oh God I can not find a thing Death from above, there’s nowhere to run Driven by fear, I’m soaked in blood Die by the sword, face down in the dirt Death from above, six feet in the earth I did not come this far to be pushed back to the dirt Sweat fills my hands and blood fills my eyes This is war Death from above
6.
Your tongue splits with every word that you speak Darkness surrounding you, manifesting misery Perpetual lies Deceptive cries On your hands and knees One who speaks portions of the truth, in order to deceive the weak Constant betrayal, the world will fall beneath your feet Deceive Me Betray me Slither back in the ground Closer to Hell where you came from Save your breath, from the lies that you speak Forfeit the game you play As you’re filled with agony Take a step but don’t cross the line Look down the barrel DIE Serpent’s Kiss

about

Blazing crossover behemoths LIFE CYCLES are pleased to announce their union with 1126 Records for the release of their fourth EP, Portal To The Unknown, on February 22nd, 2024.

LIFE CYCLES hails from the heart of Texas, a state known for churning out sonic titans. Like fellow Lone Star State heavyweights Power Trip, LIFE CYCLES have set their sights on reshaping the realms of thrash and hardcore with an unyielding intensity through their potent cocktail of thrash metal ferocity and hardcore tenacity. Drawing inspiration from the likes of metal icons Slayer, Pantera, Municipal Waste, Exodus, Testament, and Judas Priest, the band effortlessly bridges the gap between two tumultuous genres. Their music possesses the raw aggression of a hardcore show, punctuated with bone-rattling breakdowns, while simultaneously carrying the blistering speed and precision of a thrash metal performance.

After igniting stages alongside Upon A Burning Body, LIFE CYCLES stands at the precipice of a groundbreaking chapter in their career. With Portal To The Unknown the band delves deep into the trials and tribulations of life, exploring betrayals, confronting toxic memories, and the eternal battle between nostalgia and bitter recollections. It's "us against the world," as drummer Xavier Rios aptly puts it.
