I noticed the lyrics to Amelioration's album "Admin Rights" (free legal download on Bandcamp; paid download on CDBaby) weren't online anywhere and I was going to add them to a website, but I couldn't think of what website Amelioration's style would best fit. So I'll just post them here? These aren't all of them, by the way - not all of them are written in the booklet. By the way, if you like electronic music / dubstep and you also like grindcore, you should definitely check this album out. Lyrics are obviously (c) Amelioration.

- Malicious Enchroachment
Resist temptation, flee from it!

- Deceived
The devil roams the earth for who he might deceive
He is relentless like you would not believe.
Stand on the Word and take authority.
As quick as can be, the devil will flee

- Restorification
I declare healing in the name of Jesus! I declare restoration in the name of the king! Bring it down. Are you ready to be ameliorated?

- Alias
El Shaddai, El Gibbor, Elohim, Yahweh, Logos, Adonai, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Abba Father. These are the names of the most high God!

- Dance Like David
I will dance! I will dance! I will dance!  I will dance like David danced!

- Healing Spree
Boom! Be healed! Boom! Be healed! Boom! Be healed! In the mighty name of Jesus you are healed!

- That's What He Said
God has promised us many things, things inside His holy book. Your sorrow will be turned to joy. The Lord will provide. Salvation through Christ. Protection, victory in Jesus. His promises are plentiful and His blessings bountiful, your needs are met. He is faithful. That's what He said.

- Admin Rights
Upon our creation, free will was given. The right to do what we wish with our lives. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Use good judgment when exercising free will!

- Man's Lifespan
But a moment!

- Holy Ghost Noise Party
Hallelujah!

- Jumpin Jehova Stats
Why does it matter how many members your church has? Start discipling the ones you do have. This is not a popularity contest, this is about the Kingdom of God. Why concern yourself with useless statistics? Go out and preach the Gospel!

- Make a Joyful Blastbeat
Cut loose! Aah! Go wild! Alright! Shout out! Yeah! Go wild! Cut loose!

- Intolerated
Hated!

- Reverential Panegyric
I'm here to proclaim the glory of the Lord, the Lord on high who has given me life. Praise the Lord forevermore!

- Mental Defragmentation
The mind gets fragmented, disjointed and as such our thoughts focus on earthly desires. Oh great Administrator, defrag our brains! Rearrange our thoughts! Bring Yourself to the front! Optimize our minds for spiritual focus. Delete selfish desires. Firewall our minds from the things of the world!

- One Hundred Seventeen
Psalm 117

- Spiritual Virtualization
When the Administrator returns, His followers will be virtualized. Leaving behind our physical chassis into the domain of the Host of Hosts. Is your name written to the Administrator's database table of life?

- Fatal Error
Error! Error! We have all fallen short of the glory of the Administrator. FATAL ERROR!







+ UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2019 +
Here are the lyrics to "Trojan Horse", the song on the "Hymns of the Blackest Light Vol. 3" compilation
Amelioration - Trojan Horse
I come in disguise,
So you won't realize.
Harmless I appear,
Until I am here.
Activate the file,
Transformation vile.
System infected
Regret erected.

I am the devil
And I bring you sin

"Wow guys there's so much violence in the Bible : ( God punishes all these people and it hurts my feelings"

"lol guys silly Christians always getting offended by violence, am I right? So sensitive! I'm gonna go listen to some good old 'Eaten Back to Life' now! ♪♫ Carving up your eyeballs ♫♪"

More Lyrics

I wrote these earlier this year. They're not the most poetic lyrics, but I wanted to paint a picture here. It's easy to look at historical documents and feel disconnected from them. They're people we don't know, experiencing things long since past. It can be hard to imagine the course of events that led from those times, to the modern day. I wanted to try to remove that barrier.

We've recently left Egypt.
It feels like forever ago, but it hasn't been that long.
The Lord parted waters for us,
and has brought manna for us to eat.
Many wondrous things have happened.
Now Moses is giving us laws.
The Lord has promised our descendants a land with milk and honey.
We grow tired sometimes, but are excited to reach this land.

We are living in our tribes.
Many things have been happening.
At first, we did not have a king.
The people were rebellious, so the Lord appointed a king.
Prophets have been judging.
The Lord has spoken fulfilled promises through them.
Battles have been waged and kings appointed.
Our king, Solomon, is now constructing new and grand buildings.

The prophets have been speaking of somebody.
"A righteous branch of David will spring forth."
This man will save Israel.
A decree went out recently for a census.
Life has simply gone on like this for awhile.
On nights like this, I almost forgot about the prophecies.
But word has been spreading throughout the land.
Angels declared it to shepherds - He was born last night.

Many things have happened.
Such a short period of time - where to begin?
The Messiah was crucified but a few days ago.
A darkness covered the land, and the temple curtain was torn.
He worked many miracles - healing the sick, turning water to wine.
But behold - He has returned from the dead!
The tomb was empty, despite the guards who were placed there.
He has already appeared to some people once again.

I write this not in Israel, but in a nation called "the United States".
It has been a long time since the revelation to John.
Though many of us do still cling to the word today,
Many are turning again to their own hearts.
Despite medical breakthroughs, we continue to suffer.
Despite making cars and rocket ships, we continue to stagnate.
Societies, cultures, trends continue to rise and fall, just as of old.
The cold night air blows, as we look to the sky tonight, watching for the Messiah.

I just can't get over that Jeffrey Dahmer and Ted Bundy both became born-again Christians before they died. I also can't get over that people can seriously ask "why" God would allow people into Heaven who have committed such heinous crimes, when those same people, probably five minutes before, complained about the concept of "Hell" existing at all. 

What do people want, exactly? Do they want God to punish the wicked in Hell, or do they want God to just blindly forgive everyone even unrepentant murderers and just put their fingers in their ears whenever the word "Hell" comes up?

How about a nice middle-of-the-road approach, where God provides a way for people to be saved and go to Heaven, but isn't afraid to give out punishment if they don't follow that way? Oh, hey, that's exactly what the Bible teaches! Wow!

Overall the concept of people like Jeffrey Dahmer and Ted Bundy being in Heaven shouldn't be seen as a bad thing. On the contrary, it's a wonderful thing for us to keep in mind, that if those crimes can be forgiven, then certainly, we also can be forgiven. The saving power of Jesus is astounding. It's also a testament to God's love for us, that not only is God willing to blot out our sins, but wants us to be in Heaven forever with Him so much, that He will reach out to anyone, from liars to gamblers to alcoholics to occultists to porn addicts to serial killers, and say to all of them, "I love you, and I don't want to see you suffer. I know what's in your heart. I want you to be forgiven and be happy and safe in Heaven forever."

May God bless you all and guide you according to His perfect will! In Jesus' name. Amen.

Understanding of scripture comes from its Source, not from our own understanding alone. Exegesis must be the result of prayer, not a substitute for it.
