The Birth

Rebel child born to live by the blade. Never listen, No! Never listen to what they say. Knowledge out there now it's all yours to gain. It defies you and it leads you astray. This world is full of hatred you see. This world is full of many opportunities. Be weary of the daggers up their sleeve. My sword is drawn so I will never have to bleed. You'll change nothing with your abilities. You'll fall into a vain sense of security. You just wait and see. You're free. I'll change this world with my abilities. I'll practice what I preach with sensibility. The choice is mine to be. I'm free. I'm not as weak as you are little lamb. I'll do whatever I want. I can do it with my bare hands. I'll never be lost cause I won't join the fold. A child will lead them to the need to believe in. Son of none - I'll make my mistakes without you. Pay not for the deeds you've done. You're own flesh and blood - I'll take from the seed you gave me, the path in which you have shunned. You'll listen to none find faith in the stars and find it's all a waste. Idols are all but gold made to burn and melt away. The choice of your illusion son, no peace for you on earth. But it's time for you to choose now. My son, it is time for your birth!

Eyes of Fire

Fortune tellers and fools through eyes of the crystal ball; Live and die. Rock bottom's where you'll break the chains. It's where you find you. The earth beneath me crumbles to the well of no return as all eyes now gaze upon me because they'd love to watch me burn. Unfortunate by nature and so flawed by our design. Masks of such sincerity, but they'd love to see you die. Change has to come somehow. Defeat it screams so loud. It's the bullet or bone now. Stand up or lay down! I'll never forget the sound of falling to nothing. Boulders break free. Nothing's under my feet as I fall to defeat. Falling to nothing. Faith is gone and without faith you cannot brave the storm. Nevertheless you'll keep on treading on. When all you have are bitter, bitter memories. Stand for something or fall for anything. They say the footprints in the sand will stay and wash away the pain. There's talk of miracles that science can't explain without faith. From the bottom one can never see the wood for the trees. I'm singing a hopeless song and the sound's deafening. A child will lead them from the need to believe in. I will lead them. From this wasteland with reason. The sound is....

Calm Before The Storm

Run what needs to be done. I'm on the fence but I'm not alone. Give them what they need. I can't do that. I'll lose the throne. I'll make them see; Make them believe false hopes and dreams. They follow me. Cast your vote so suicidal. Stand in line you're in denial. Policy and fake compassion - I'm counting on my tongue to win the ballot. I'm funded enough. Now that's the ticket. When morales are void they'll fall for anything! Rise up in this hopelessness. The stage is set. My mask is on. Now follow the set. I see the hunger in their eyes, boy. Now the words I speak mean nothing to me but they have to be shallow at best. I'm a likable guy. That's all i have to be to take it hands down. Money makes the world go 'round. Money makes their lies so loud. Done? I'm all but done. I would feel bad; No time for that. This rat race feeds perpetually, without relief. Some might say I've lost my way. But they're just pawns in this game. It doesn't really matter if you win or lose. It doesn't really matter who you choose. You're losing ground in this town. Morality leads the poll. Was it worth it all to lose your soul? Lose your soul!

Time is up. Pass your papers to the front. Let's see if you could do what we told you to. These are facts, now hypothesized through and through. They must be true. Math won't tell us lies. It's define with no surprises. We'll overcompensate for what we cannot calculate. Generations are at stake when our theory's proof is fake. Faith be gone; No place for you in here. We've seen it all from math we bought. We see the answers so clear. Equations won't align. Put unknown place-holders in their space. It seems to me you're struggling because your science adopted faith and then called it the truth. What came first the chicken or the egg? Are the answers clear enough or does the data make you beg? When? Where? How? - The riddles of the night. Science told you how but it can never tell you why! Circulate; unknown particles we've never seen, but we believe in them anyway. Adjust the math to accommodate. Science has an ankle weight. But they won't see; researching. Pardon me, I don't believe. It's not that they don't see. It's not that they don't care. But there's a fear that sets in man when he can't calculate the end. Space cadets align! Is the moon full of answers or resources we can't find? The promises we make with human hands cannot address these things that we can't comprehend. A wise man said you cannot fight the man. Faith is accepting things that you can't understand. Do we swallow or follow the knife? We're in too deep to change our minds. We've got to prove that we don't need him. Though the facts seem to lie. We keep on circling to avoid the truth. It's not that they don't see. It's not that they don't care. But there's a fear that sets in man when he can't calculate the end.

Wither Wicked World

There's no greater pain, no greater tragedy than when this wicked, wicked world swallows our young; When idol hands meet a devil's mind hungry for more. Enough of the plague innocent people see when thoughts of vengeance spark in you and me. May our weary hearts find that solace now. May we find peace. Hopelessly free, free of morality. We took God from schools and homes and we still won't see. Some roots dig to deep when we've made all that's pure the enemy. Judgement's not something we should convey. But God it's hard when we've lost so much love to hate. I crumble at the thought of looking you in the eye with that price to pay. You've got it somewhere deep inside. May you finally find the strength to carry on. When your broken heart falls to it's knees and finds no relief in anything, hold on. When it seems hope has lost it's way, may words of love speak when you're alone. I'll see you there. Please wait for me. I'll see you there when I get home. Silver screens of children in graves, we watch the world as it withers away. Everyday, Everyday. Havoc in countries and lines drawn in war, We need a savior, the same as before. As before....Judgement's not something we should convey but God it's hard when we've lost so much love to hate. Hopelessly free of morality. I pray to the heavens much different than before. I pray for the broken lost in this war. And I'll see you again when I get.... Home.

Now we bleed, we bleed for the sake of courage and covet power positions. The hands of battle dig beneath love and verify the lies. Take the land, take the hope, pervert the soul, please believe. Man's conquest for blood is not what love would have you perceive in the name of God. Why do we have to sell out our souls from within? My silence is scorn are we fighting a losing battle? When men win their wars they gain no peace of which they sing. The greatest deceit that the devil has more than mastered is convincing man there's no such thing. Darkened souls take what's pure and put hate where love once stood. Sprinkle human nature in the mixture of this recipe for innocent fools. Stone cold killers from the garden use people as your tools. GODLESS! May we not perceive what they told us to see. May we never put faith on a dime. Let there be a voice for those who cannot speak at all. May we never use God's name to climb. Burn that bridge. Choose your fate. Fight no war in God's name. Hopeless souls, OH, GODLESS!

It's so very hard to accept our endings when death is the door of time. So small in it all we cannot see the light for the fire. Life will never give a window of reason as questions of why arise. Angels clothed in skin and bone must return home to the skies. This vessel with all of it's flaws comes the promise it will fail you. But death is never the end love lives on in us all with a promise to see you agin. Children this world is but a stage, you have roles you must play for them. But when the scene is complete, I'll take those who are mine in my arms of sweet relief. You must trust something my friend that this flesh can't explain to you. Love lasts forever in love's sweet surrender. Every plea has an answer to its call. We may not see but there are answers to them all. Even roses in their beauty all have petals that must fall; So must angels fly when means have been resolved. Oh, in the twinkling of an eye, when a promise tells you everything's alright. Thought this world with its demons never few keeps the past so close to you. Takes the love so deep and stabs that burden into you. Remember me cause I'm watching over you. And, I'm proud of you, so proud of you. Fly, fly, I'll see you all again. Wings of love will guide you in.

Full speed with your head down running towards the goal, come feast or famine. Hell or high water whoa be unto you. I'm climbing up that mountain though I can't see, snow-blind from the poison ambition within me. I'll never see a soul again if I don't to choose to change my course. Making provisions though the goal is still the same. A path you must align. Do what it takes to make them find with ever-changing ways. Answers call on patient men. Stand Strong in the flame. Change only the game. We began with no desire to join the game. That much is written by our struggles. Fame and fortune at the heart of what's to blame. To face defeat is a hard pill to swallow. Wear it like a crown. Intentions gold but chained. Convention screams so loud, though no one hears a thing. While you're waiting for the world, the world is engulfed in flames. When courses meet demise; You've been sailing here for days. As water floods the hull, it's time to change our ways. Quit waiting for the world. Someone has to lead them home!

I've chased this fate too long; chased that rabbit down the hole. I've danced with evil too long and now it's time to come home. I've begged you son please listen close. I've told you from day one. These promises written in blood; Time will be no more. The dirt your burden feeds within; Dabble you're so bold. Sick demons as they beckon you as the piper leads the pawn. I've seen so many things that this world claims that it controls. Please see pardon in your eyes. Father take control. I just could not see past their make believe. I've seen things that I chose to see. Believe or you choose to die. A world obsessed with the mark of the beast so close to the end of time. How sad the story a world of sin and bliss and the sad thing about it is God's always there to forgive. Armageddon's as close as we are to the end. We'll live by the sword and die by the sin. Depart from me yea workers of your iniquity. I never knew you, no, I never knew you. The angel proclaims time be no more. Swim while you still have breath. Will they all lay down their weapons? Will they follow you home? No. All the pain, all the agony; Now it's over. Now you see. Depart from me, ye workers of iniquity, for I never knew you; I never knew you!
