lyrics

Kill Or Be Killed

Sitting in a bar and not knowing where you are
You try to leave this place but can’t find your car
Then a man comes up to you and starts to give you threats
You know this fight could be a fight till the death
But you’re not sure if you should fight the way you feel
You’re not sure if this man won’t make a deal
‘Cause in your life you know the fights have been too few
There’s only one thing left to do

Kill or be killed
It’s you and I
And one of us will die
Kill or be killed
And I will survive

The day in court I stand alone
I’m being tried
The judge just asks me once
did that man have to die
I said he drew his gun
intent was being made
So I took out my knife
and cut him with my blade
I never thought that I could take his life
No I just tried to save my own
I did no evil the struggle I’m in
I’d do it all again

Kill or be killed
It’s you and I
And one of us will die
Kill or be killed
And I will survive
Kill or be killed
It’s you and I
And one of us will die
Kill or be killed
And I will survive
Kill or be killed
It’s you and I
And one of us will die
Kill or be killed
And I will survive

Why Play Around?
by Wargasm

supported by 73 fans who also own “Kill or Be Killed”

Killer thrash from the 80s, remastered and re-released to remind the kids how it was done before there was a roadmap. I never heard of them until now, but these guys hold up well against the best of the popular bands of the era- Death Angel, Violence, Forbidden, early Metallica and early Slayer. Edit: After a coupla months to digest this, I have to say these guys are one of the best thrash bands ever, period. The fact that they were doing this in 1986 is testament to their fucking genius.

This is a nice little arrangement for diehard Solstice fans and also for enthusiasts of raw and gritty recordings. Talon Sullivan

Great sound. We can hear the (heavy) influence of Iron Maiden but this is a quality to me. :-) LDU

Awesome, unpolished and powerful. Really awesome to hear these takes. Good arrangement and definitely worth checking out for diehard Solstice fans. Talon Sullivan
