Weightless
I soar above the earth
Galaxies infinite
Beyond existence
There’s much more to it all
Revolutionary
I want to rise
Without a doubt in mind
No regrets when you go
Face to face
With the eyes of betrayal
Shake the weight that holds you
To the ground
Gravity is lost
A trip to the heavens
Up trascend
Amongst the fucking idols
You follow
Make way or my heavy hands will
Destroy you
Destroy you
They seek to bury you
Reaching out for a hand
Unbreakable grip
forcing you
to your eternal rest
Memories shattered
In reflection
Visions of the past
And the broken
I was living a lie
With no purpose
But I held the future
At my feet
Test the prophets
And predictions
All the judgment
Passed upon
The one you call
Your brother
How could you stand
On my grave
And build above me
Like I never existed
How could you stand
On my grave
Become slave
To the master of all
Lies you lived so well
In the face of the torn
Pride yourself
With the biggest deception
Outer beauty
Fueled by endless hate

The Undertow
Sweeps down
Through my head
Overwhelming love
revived me from the dead
Waves of age
That separate
Pulses of cognition
from my previous
Mental state
Align my thoughts
With my origin
Setting sun control within
Turning weakness into
Distant fear
From a former self
I'd prefer to forget
Ascend above what
Was just a dream
the end awaits you
It awaits me
Promise me you'll break The trend
Give it all you've got until The end
Life seems lost here.
Keep the fire
Inside of yourself
Burn down the walls
Of confusion.
Questions surround
My change in character
Discovering who
I really am

All Through My Veins

Reflecting back
To the moments
There was never
Enough time
They’re buried in my heart
Entombed with my being
Living with a void
Is never easy
Embrace the silver lining
You gave life to me
Erase the fights
Every hateful thing I said
Leave them at the door
To your grave
Within my soul
All through my veins
You pour out
With the blood
That keeps me awake
This wholesome feeling
Created home
Pressing onward
Never forget
I’ve made my choice
Carved in Stone
The passage
Of reckoning
Awaits
This feeling’s forever yours
(But I can’t find my way)
This feeling’s forever yours
(I can’t find my way)
This feeling’s forever yours
(Forever yours)
This feeling’s forever yours
(Forever yours)
Erase the fights
Every hateful thing I said
Leave it at the door
To your grave

Inner Sleep
04:34
|

Keep the torch
That beholds
Illuminating our beings
Echoes and inner voices
Carry us to eternity
Never a better sense
Never an awakening
Sights not clear
Roots grow withered
Into society
Connected by our actions
On track to destiny
Bound to darkness blind
Into the ground Blind
Don’t realize
That you’ve fallen so deep
You can awaken
From this inner sleep
Cover every part of thee
Energy flows
And purpose drives
Our minds to mean Everything
Lose a grip you
Never had
(We are the ones that behold)
Don’t you fall
To the ground!
(We Are)
Don’t you you fall
If you fall to the ground
Get the fuck up
(We Are the ones that behold)
Lose a grip you
Never had
(We Are)
We Are
Fighting the demons
that make you slaves
Always realizing time
Once it’s gone
Be relieved to wake up
Wake up and breathe
Wake up and breathe
(Be Ready to breathe)
Be relieved to wake up
Wake up and Breathe
(Be Ready)
Wake the fuck up
(Be Ready)
Get the fuck up

Unequivocal
Always the path
That Is numbered
Force a fate
That fuels affliction
Never look back
At the wreckage
Shed all decay away
Your exercise in integration
The elegance of silhouettes
Climb
To the top of the mountain
Breach the sky
Let it fall to broken pieces
Bury all the hate in sight
Don’t expect the unknown
Don’t expect the unknown
Say a prayer
As we face tomorrow
Today has us defeated
Don’t relapse
To repress your sorrow
Living like municipal waste
Like municipal waste
I don’t need your attention
because I’m hanging
By a thread
I just want to feel
Like I’m normal
Inside my walls
Until I'm dead
Until I'm dead
Until I'm dead
The pretext of a passenger
Swallowing the black
Don’t expect the unknown
Bury all the hate inside
It’s added pressure
Your mind has disappeared
I’m hanging by a thread
Like municipal waste
I’m hanging by a thread
You waste!

Go forth to the ends
Of the earth
Searching for the truth
That has led me through
Create a way
For the memories to stay
I made it so it
Didn’t feel like
This single purpose
That consumes my mind
Having love
That doesn’t speak
When you’re hateful
Listen to my every word
So ungrateful
Anyone who dares
To unravel
The webs that I’ve woven
You will be the breath
I take
The love that's felt
It lives beneath
Broken surface
Waiting to collapse
You fall apart
I fall apart
Apart
The love I've harnessed
Way down deep
Susceptible to a world
Of insecurity
You play the game or
You get eaten alive
A single purpose
That consumes my mind
Having love
That doesn’t speak
When you’re hateful
Listen to my every word
So ungrateful
