Too strong to bend, too strong to care, oh-oh, oh

Black star, white light
Eating the cancer cells from the death machine

Black star, white light

Eating the cancer cells from the death machine

Child monster with insect hair, yeah, heh-heh
You destroy this moral prison
You free the slaves, you free the slaves
You free the slaves, you free the
