Some are chosen, some impressed
Some are lonely, some are blessed
Sometimes we disappear
Some build with sticks, some throw stones
Some live outside, some without homes
Some have tried to fly away

Slowly stalking by design
Feeding off our own blood line
Clip the wings that fall from grace
Starve beyond without a taste

We're birds of prey
Birds of prey
The weak are lead astray
To feed the birds of prey

This is peace, this is war
We found greed and we want more
This life's an open door
That stays wide open
This is hate, this is right now
We're the love we won't allow
Sometimes we gotta change, change

Slowly stalking by design
Feeding off our own blood line
Clip the wings that fall from grace
Starve beyond without a taste

We're birds of prey
Birds of prey
The weak are lead astray
To feed the birds of prey

Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa

Slowly stalking by design
Feeding off our own blood line
Clip the wings that fall from grace
Starve beyond without a taste

We are, we are
Birds of prey
The weak are lead astray
To feed the birds of prey

    My Interpretation

    I think this is about how it's a kill or be killed society as a whole at this point. How everyone has to keep looking over their own shoulder because it's tough to predict what's coming next or who the real enemy is. Unfortunately it's the climate nowadays, it's how the tide has turned and it's dark.
