"The meaning of of that werey la fin wo werey simply means, aural for aural. You have to face your enemy with madness in the spirit because if you are too cold for your enemy they just kill you. It’s not just a lyrics it has meaning depending how you interpret it. Even your own lyrics Jesu la fin wo werey still interpreting the same thing. If you are not strong in the spirit you can’t face your problems."
