VELKIRA – THE HUNGER YOU MADE | female fronted metal

THE HUNGER YOU MADE is an aggressive female-fronted nu metal and groove metal anthem about corruption, manipulation, manufactured division and the collective rage created by systems that profit from human suffering. Set inside a maximum-security prison during an uprising, the official music video follows a prisoner who uses the chaos of the rebellion to execute her escape plan. Every locked door, surveillance camera and steel corridor becomes part of her path to freedom. Crushing down-tuned guitars, dissonant riffs, tribal drums, industrial percussion, explosive double-kick patterns, gang chants, melodic hooks and furious female screams drive this dark and confrontational song of resistance.

Feed the fear. Sell the poison. Keep us here. You made us hungry! Now watch us feed! I carved my name in a concrete vein, Beneath the towers that were built from pain. You sold us freedom with a loaded hand, Then drew the borders where you made us stand. Every promise came dressed in gold, But the heart inside it was dead and cold. You pulled the strings while the cameras rolled, Turned living bodies into things you sold. I swallowed every word you gave, Until the truth crawled out of its grave. Now every scar has learned to speak, And your foundation’s underneath my feet. You can hide the knife, But the wound remembers. You can drown the spark, But we carry the embers. We are the hunger you made, The living debt you never paid. Lock every door—we’ll tear through the frame, You built a kingdom, now choke on its name. No surrender, no release, You fed the war—now face the beast. Hear the whole damned city say: We are the hunger you made! The hunger you made! The hunger you made! Now face the hunger you made! Your boardroom prophets count bones like coins, While another generation gets destroyed. You bless the trigger, condemn the hand, Then wash the blood with a new command. Manufactured enemies, televised rage, Another distraction, another cage. You keep us divided, addicted to blame, While every side is burning the same. How many lives can your silence buy? How many graves make a profitable lie? You call it order—I call it control. A polished machine with a human toll. You can change the words, But the lie stays with you. You can break our backs, But we’ll rise against you. We are the hunger you made, The living debt you never paid. Lock every door—we’ll tear through the frame, You built a kingdom, now choke on its name. No surrender, no release, You fed the war—now face the beast. Hear the whole damned city say: We are the hunger you made! I watched the innocent become the accused. I watched the faithful become the abused. I watched the truth get buried alive, But something underneath it survived. You thought we’d disappear without a sound. You thought the weight would keep us down. But pressure doesn’t make us obey— It makes the ground beneath you break. Cut the feed! Break the seal! Let them see what you conceal! No more masters! No more chains! No more profit from our pain! You wanted silence— We became a siren! You wanted weakness— We became defiant! You made the monster! You fed the flame! Now look into its eyes And remember your name! We are the hunger you made, The living debt you never paid. Bring down the walls, tear open the frame, There’ll be nothing left to protect your name. No forgiveness, no retreat, Feel the uprising under your feet. Hear the whole damned world proclaim: We are the hunger you made! We won’t kneel! We won’t break! We won’t die for your mistakes! We won’t kneel! We won’t break! We are the hunger— The hunger you made!
