about

Every one has encountered those people who pride themselves on sabotaging the success of those around them (you may even be a victim of sabotage yourself, or perhaps a perp of the sabotage). It is prevalent in all social demographics. The perceived big fish want to stay the big fish and will do so at the cost of others.


The megaphone in the song is a an homage to the early days of metal and a direct result of creative direction from friend and former bandmate Stacy Bisping.

Guitars used for this song-
Left and Right rhythm tracks: Epiphone Les Paul Custom
Guitar solo: Epiphone Les Paul Custom
Bass: Dean Edge

lyrics

Verse 1
You lift them up
Then bring them down
To strip them of their pride

Take away
The right of birth
Legacy homicide

Rumor mills
To grind them down
Why are you afraid

Of who they
May become
Now you masquerade

Chorus:
Twisting contorting allegory
Spinning truth from a web of lies

Manipulating accusations
Victimizing those you despise

Psychological Gaslighting
You’re the Psycho of Sabotage


Verse 2
Hometown hero
Put me down
Bombastic selfish prick

Hold me down
With you name
So I won't amount to shit

Fool them all
With your lies
Master of deceit

King of kings
Rapes the girls
And gets away scot free

Chorus:

Verse 3
Military man
Wants a job
Aboard a cargo ship

Waiting for that call
To come aboard
To escape your dictatorship

But your at home
You pick up the phone
And your Jealousy overcomes

You tell them no
He can't go
Cycle of Sabotage

Chorus:

Verse 4
Looking back
I see your hands
Manipulating destiny

I will live
In your face
And reclaim my legacy

Your getting old
And alone
No one to impress

I overcame
Your masquerade
Your powerless to oppress

Killstrap Wisconsin

Killstrap was formed in the summer of 2019 when front man Drake Sass and guitarist Kris Fox of grunge band Heilzaam were kicking around some ridiculous song title ideas for spoof band, Vomitorium. The pair decided the ideas were too good to be ignored and set about writing and recording Killstrap’s debut, Ticket to Death. ... more
