I've heard the rumors around the town
They say the government is coming now
For those left behind long ago
I've seen this old movie before
So many times that I ignore
But things are about to run out of control
Screaming children - loud gunfire - runaway
Is there anywhere to hide?
Low-flying choppers - tv staff in - battle tanks
Are part of our lives in here
Black boots march - through the dust - open fire
Taking no prisoners
Proud of being - the state's reaper - wearing black
And skull to protect and serve, but whom?
Now they're coming up
Corpses hit the ground
There comes black boots
Hunting people down
Now there's no escape
Bloodshed is now
There comes black boots
Hunting people down
Outlaws running through the hill
No time to pray for their last will
Hope for the situation to change
They went out of camera's sight
Black boots waiting at the other side
All turns into a shooting range
Shotgun shells - assault rifles - bulletproofing
Willing to seek and kill
Feel like living - with a target - on my back
Lay down to escape from stray bullets
Black boots march - through the dust - open fire
Taking no prisoners
Proud of being - the state's reaper - wearing black
And skull to protect and serve, but whom?
Now they're coming up
Corpses hit the ground
There comes black boots
Hunting people down
Now there's no escape
Bloodshed is now
There comes black boots
Hunting people down
