about

By the end of the nineteenth century, indigenous nations within the United States had gone from having the rights due any other foreign country to having almost no right to exist. This process had been underway before 1871, but the Indian Appropriations Act of that year incorporated it into official government policy, opening the door for its rapid acceleration.

While no new treaties have been written since 1871, Congress did eventually restore some measure of Indigenous sovereignty in 1934 with the Indian Reorganization Act (IRA). However, because it forced tribes to hold votes and write their own Constitutions, many tribes correctly viewed the IRA as another government mandate.

Even though most federally recognized tribes today have some form of self-government, the fight for Indigenous sovereignty denied in the 1871 Act continues. In New Mexico, for example, Indigenous people are resisting government-sponsored energy drilling near sacred sites on public land; in North Dakota, they have protested government-imposed oil pipelines across treaty-protected land. Meanwhile, in Alaska and Colorado, tribes are lobbying for the power and resources to combat disproportionately high rates of sexual assault and other violent crimes on federal reservations.

The song is inspired by an Aggressive people taking the land of the Native American people without a warrant. The song is about the aggressive nature of mankind which drives the push for conquest.

lyrics

V1
Is there a scope of reference you would understand, From minor inconvenience To World altering collapse Homicide, genocide, murder of the innocent Savagery, brutality Then deny the violence Chorus There is a virus of conquest Inside, consuming that which can give me rest (Give me rest)

V2
Is there an ample reason To covet No matter the cost, To break the peaceful treason
With vile intent, Armada Homicide, genocide, murder of the innocent Savagery, brutality Then deny the violence And portray repentance And display pestilence And breed malevolence

Chorus
There is, a virus of conquest Inside consuming, that which can give me rest

V3
(partial) Homicide, genocide, murder of the innocent Savagery, brutality Then deny the violence

Chorus
A bleeding wound comes to fester The peace will fall to the Aggressor Within, a pain now corrupts the soul And so an emptiness takes control There is, a virus of conquest Inside consuming, that which can give me rest
