I stand alone in the midst of madness
Withered by my old masters
Made whole by my own actions
Close my eyes & envision blackness
Hold the key to forbidden latches
You hold your tongue as they lower caskets
Solely focused on your hopeless passions
With the rope to match 'em
Sell your soul just to cash in
I got mine & I'm coming for yours
Knock twice, then I kick in the door
What's the hollering for?
You made your bed while I slept on the floor
Sick to my core, crippled with sores
Left for dead, but consider the source
Divine will's a formidable force
In my dreams I've seen villages torched
Cities of ash
These things too shall pass
Are you ready to remove the mask?
It's a wild ride
Let's skip the diatribe, few will survive
The news will lie, know this when you step outside
I'm the product of an open mind
No instructions for these broken times
Remain aligned & try to soak the signs
Watch for the cobra eyes
Sole goal is to polarize
They're a symptom of the whole design
Cold as iron under open skies
Don't get roped into your own demise
Keep your head up
When hate's expected, needs neglected
We keep our eyes on the exit
We dwell up in the septic
A life spitting in the face of reality takes it's toll
Levees break, strong men fold
But we are not alone
Golden souls hold scrolls to truths untold
Only known when the temple is whole
I used to dwell secluded & stoic
Delusions heroic
Blackouts my only motive
Notice shit, could not control it
That's life you gotta roll with
Weight you gotta hold it
Acknowledge your opponents
In moments of atonement, open up and own it
But watch out who you zone with
Trust
