Power is claimed by the coward passed to him by his false god no will inside the loose shell of a man no mind to be fought with the mind of a child set to power a hollowman built to be puppeted a shaky cyst on this world claiming to be the whole race shadow can’t hide what fuels him inside his third eye is shrouded by his lack of shame malevolent manipulator he bears the mark of the beast from the seas they won’t come from the skies they won’t come you poor misguided blind little rats look to the true god the god of your own will anointed by flames from wars on founders of all seeking to destroy your will seeking to destroy your soul.

Bring down the system let's burn it to the ground its goals are unachievable only meant to hold us down the profit from the bloodshed only aims to fuel more war a perpetual state of chaos rages from shore to shore numerous boundaries crossed for the sake of the bottom line blood is on their hands still they lie right to our face this system is designed to fail and we must stand against it the people are not up for sale you cannot win this system is designed to fail and then we shall be free hidden behind a thin veil why can’t they see an intervention this is an overdose from hell addicted to power and money fuels the need modern day slavery work for the bank not for yourself barely a life I'd rather pull the trigger and kill myself kill my fucking self this system is designed to fail the horrid victims of this abject failure buried in unmarked graves never to be seen again

In the streets of the capitol of the enslavement of man a killer hunts his prey that preys upon this land meticulous incision ripping through flesh scream deafen the assailant until the victim gurgles to the floor in the capitol city of enslavement a murderer a righteous killer extinguishes not so innocent life cleansing the streets of its stench the crimson sidewalk paints pictures of pain and progress stripped of its political whores the metropolis can thrive unhalted unoppressed and most of all sane the horror in the victim's eyes reflects the horror of his lies millions have suffered needlessly due to the whores insanity sociopathic madness is the reason for the absence of empathetic feelings which fuels the brutal killing spree occurring in these streets meticulous incisions ripping through flesh screams deafen the assailant until the victim gurgles to the floor

I’ll never forgive you for this pain you’ve caused me a scapegoat sacrificed for the good of man it's time I take back what you have taken from me my pride and dignity it's time I stand my ground now stand your fucking ground bitch it's time for my revenge now stand your fucking ground bitch it's time for my revenge so don’t hold me close this if far from over I’m just getting started with you the pain I felt when you betrayed me is nothing compared to what I’ll do to you the spark ignites the fire burning everything of worth to you what can I say you took away my life left me to die alone and for this I must say fuck you a shot gun blast to the face gets the message across will you live to understand its meaning I think not now stand your fucking ground bitch it's time for my revenge now you can’t stand your ground bitch because you're dead so don’t hold me close this is far from over I’m just getting started with you the pain I felt when you betrayed me is nothing compared to what I'll do to you

I saw goats sick starving goats screaming in agony screaming I saw goats sick starving goats screaming in agony screaming calling to hordes of sick and starving sheep millions led by fat shepherds to cliffs shepherds eating of their own some consuming their own bodies a fat sheep sits on a throne of other sheep's bones dining on shepherds a circular stair ascends to the gods guarded by thorns of emotion the fat sheep howls in laughter raising his cup to the sky he rests atop a pyramid of shepherds who rest atop a pyramid of dead so will they take my ass away for knowing the truth or will they haul us all away for never knowing and the sky was ablaze the earth an eternity of sand the few of us still surviving were bowed at the feet of the sheep they sit and wait for one of us to stray from the herd and giving in they listen to the words of the liar a wolf in sheep’s clothing a tragedy as old as time the wisdom that could have fucking saved you was lost in the black hole of your betrayal the code of honor broken the void of silence filled with lies misdirection and betrayal my ears feel full of all your words with no meaning but still snitches sleep in ditches

Echoes resonating whispers suspended in time sensory deprivation emotional exclusion I want to leave this body behind this world isn’t worth my time crowds of blank faces pass me by I can’t feel them I won’t let myself breathing in the stench around me it makes me sick to my core walking tall knee deep in shit I am so disconnected from the rest crowds of blank faces pass me by I can’t feel them I won’t let myself echoes resonating whispers suspended in time sensory deprivation.

I walk to the beat of the beat-less my drum is broken beyond repair my soul sees the sight of the sightless sees the world of the dead as my own I walk to the rhythm of sorrow see no tomorrow time waits for no man or I'd best be getting on to a new horizon burning bridges leading home say goodbye say goodbye to the life you've come to know say goodbye say goodbye to this life as life passes us by burning ever faster we wait for second tries instead of catching up at all but I won’t wait for another soul my direction is my own fuck you don’t try to bring me back fuck you I don’t need society my soul sees the sight of the sightless right through to the fifth dimension these physical walls and metaphysical bridges were built to be burned to the ground say goodbye say goodbye to the life you’ve come to know say goodbye say goodbye to everything

Beating in my chest I feel my life revolving in and around me my spirit seems tainted by my time in this trance I see the world around me falling apart falling apart falling in on itself how will we ever be saved and for my atonement and for life holding on to the echoes from my past I hope and pray that this will last I’ve seen a million ways that all this could go to shit but we try to hold it together breathe in breathe out entropy increases with every moment that passes we grow ever weaker and more susceptible to the virus infecting our minds I see the world around me falling apart falling in on itself

This is my time to explain all of the things that you haven’t thought of there’s so much more out there then you could ever see with your eyes how are you so blind could you not see what's right before you it's so obvious I cannot take it it leaves me dumbfounded take a look at me and what do you see I see a shell waiting to crack open spilling my light out into the world to be gazed upon by you how does it feel to be spectator knowing that life is yours to live why choose to follow in others footsteps when you could die at any instant what are you waiting for and with every waking breath and with every conscious thought and with every step I take I move forward in time and I wont regret it and with every waking breath and with every conscious thought and with every step I take I move forward in time and I wont regret it and I will let these beams of light fill my veins and out my eyes take me high so high and let me touch eternity and I will let these beams of light fill my veins and out my eyes take my high so high and let me touch eternity breathing in a new life there is really nothing like it you can relive almost anything now that you have found the poison still I know the end is coming soon still I know the end if coming soon still I know the end is coming soon still I know the end is coming soon and I will let these beams of light fill my veins and out my eyes take me high so high and let me touch eternity and I will let these beams of light fill my veins and out my eyes take me high so high and let me touch eternity
