Prong

Strange days have found us
Strange days have tracked us down
They're going to destroy
Our casual joys
We shall go on playing
Or find a new town

Yeah!

Strange eyes fill strange rooms
Voices will signal their tired end
The hostess is grinning
Her guests sleep from sinning
Hear me talk of sin
And you know this is it

Yeah!

Strange days have found us
And through their strange hours
We linger alone
Bodies confused
Memories misused
As we run from the day
To a strange night of stone

Another rude awakening.
The hard life that's been our school.
More of a cruel day's reckonings.
Our prime time used up too soon.
There is no kindness to waste
Why help those crying for more?
It spins you around, takes you for a ride.
What is the point to even try?
Somehow got to learn to accept the rejection.
The tired thoughts from troubling.
A weary mind from worrying.
Your constant fears upon wakening.
Your real life left in your dreams.

Initiation into a whole other realm of being
Into a new way of becoming
Transfiguration
A step into the rest
A true condition
An embrace into the depth
Embrace the depth

To be where you need to be
To be where you want to be
To see what you need to see
To see what you cannot see

Initation
Balance beam on the cross


Lightbringer to the lost
Appreciation of all and nil that's gone
An affirmation of what one has become

To be where you need to be
To be where you want to be
To see what you need to see
To see what you cannot see

tell you something clearly
tell you something real
but you tell me nothing
you never do nothing real
your kind it keeps on cutting
division you create now its all exploding soon
nothing left to break no hope in complaining
all this lay in ruin its a time for mending
gathering of the wounds

Go ahead and rise above, see how far you get on top.
Held down just to impair you.
We know who's ahead of the game.
You know who'll get the blame.
You're in the grip of the controller.
Do you really want it all back?
See how far you get on top.
Held down just to impair you.
It's the fear that you can't do right.
See how you lose in your life
Cut down, they will impale you.
Can you really get it on track?
You tried to make it all stop.
Time will tell how much they denied you.
You just got burnt by the controller.
You'll never know how to react.
Your sucked to the very last drop.
Time will tell what has been denied you.
Are you clear in your mind and sight?
Are you clear right out of your head?
Just angry at the things that have failed you.
So you want to get it all back.
You tried to make it all last.
Tied down to control you.

nothing breeds more contempt for this world
than memories now formed every moment
a new seed is grown to no reason the
trouble unfolds for the trials of today
i'm no jury really don't care how you feel the pleasant notion of miraculous change
drifts into multiple jeers you want the good life
you break your back you snap your fingers
you snap your neck seconds drip thru my hands
washed of moments unborn all the spaces
between bleed a tribute to a sacrament
never exposed a message to the forces,
I've no pity don't know how thankful to feel expectations
of my daily bread gives me the hunger to steal

You make the right moves, I beg to differ
Rather be a fool and see things clearer
You found a quick way to fill your pocket
That's the way in a world that's lost it
To fall in line
Its meaningless, mindlessness
I beg to differ
Disharmony amongst all our brothers
That's okay, be true to our grudges
No desire to walk beside you
Nothing positive when forced upon you
(So fall in line) Just fall in line
It's meaningless, mindlessness
I beg to differ

Be careful what you want, it may be what you get.
Careful of yourself, you may just kill yourself.
Watch out for all the ruin that you ask for.
Being trapped below, is that what you need

Careful what you get, it may just get you back.
How much more?
Relive the nightmares of the past.
Think twice about the ruin that you ask for.

Still ignoring all the warnings you see?
A lifetime wronged you.
Dark Signs warned you.
Feel me self destruct

You're gonna get exactly what you're gonna get.
You suffer more and more and then you blame yourself.
Those signposts that point to disaster
Ignore the signals, you get what you see.

time for reward its been so hard just living here
transcend the self remove the sight ending
the fear escape the fault widen the gap
kill off the facts that are gonna hurt my mind
that are gonna stain my soul
another worldly device
that may ruin me that are gonna
ruin my goals that are gonna take its toll
another worldly device
another worldly release
take back myself from this here self the
ones that you do must hold some truth
to what you should I will perceive the will persists
I must omit what's gonna hurt my mind
what's gonna stain my soul
another worldly device
that may ruin me not gonna block my goals
not gonna take its toll
another worldly device
another worldly device more wrong advice another broken promise

Diggin' for answers you fall in a hole
Lessons of nonsense shall cast the first stone
Pontifical preachings past now quick to forget 'em
I'm depending on no one I distrust and oppose
Prove you, prove you wrong
You can bet on it, I'll prove you wrong
Prove you, prove you wrong
Depend on it, I'll prove you wrong
Quest for solutions
You ain't gonna get one here
Why waste my breath upon the ears of the deaf man
Skeptic acceptance caution
Fraudulent cause
Dependence on no one best distrust and oppose

Waiting impatiently to put together the facts.
Wishing for the best to move slightly against the grain.
Upwards. Onwards,
I hope I can rebound and flow.
I just hoped for one more chance to prove what I can do.
You gotta suffer the facts.
You gotta face the act.
The time for this is true.
I gotta close the door on you.
It's all come into view.
I gotta close the door on you.
Hating all similar to all that I've been through.
Harping on all particulars that have given me pain.
From the onset, the downset, frustration taken its course.
Involving all my bitter thoughts in everything I do.

The Ways Of Your Way


I'm Lost In Disbelief
How Can You Breathe Freely

And Look At What You See


The Space That You Tread


What You Do Perceive

Your Objects Of Desire
I Know They're Not For Me





Not Forgetting All The Crimes




All I Can Now Cry
Neither Nor The Lesson
Your World's Not Mine
Your World's Not Mine



I See What I Touch

Burn In My Own Dreams


No Feeling For Your Life
Your World Can't Be Seen

Playing for the hate team

Go

You try to take all the challenge
Out of all of our lives
You make it all too predictable
With your white wash lives

See, you got to show me the torment
And all the despair
All those bloodless bullet holes
Are more than we can bear

Clean sweep, clean sweep
Clean sweep, clean sweep

With the plastic coverings
And the cut-rate display
No renewal of the pleasurable
With no image of decay

You go, you go for the stability
And what do you get
Some real vivid misfortune
A cause now an effect

Clean sweep, clean sweep
Clean sweep

You try to take all the challenge
Out of all of our lives
You make it all too predictable
With your white wash lives

See, you got to show me the torment
And all the despair
All those bloodless bullet holes
Are more than we can bear

Clean sweep, clean sweep
Clean sweep, clean sweep
Clean sweep

Unconditional soon to be damned
An individual high in demand
Institutions fill the begging hands
Clean the ashes where we used to stand
Uninvited with open arms
Complacent walls keeping out all harm
I'm bound, unbound, unwound
Unconditional
Unconditional bad for good
Clutching glad hand misunderstood
A tight cold grip, eager to pull
With a little luck
Fake out the rule

time for reward its been so hard just living here
transcend the self remove the sight ending
the fear escape the fault widen the gap
kill off the facts that are gonna hurt my mind

they've had enough all of those with good will let the rest
run amok they won't come clean so
we're bound to lose don't even have
a clue no respect for you dignity
for whom one more outnumbered bleeding hearts
that humble to find some shelter from a bloody

i'll take no blame for some other's mistake

i'll end it...you out of this misery.
you've got life,
blood on our hands,
this is no life.
i will not shame for a deed undone
i'm reaching for the stars
i spit at the sun.
i'll take the liberty
to get you off my back
i want your history taken off the map.

so thrilled we got you now you can't break the game so glad,
accept the choice so glad you learned the ropes to try so far to go
the end you'll never know you have nothing
to follow the message a lost cause
and who cares about the lesson no question of the loss

just sit down and talk to death it's known to teach you time again a something not of this earth that something not of this earth. 12
o'clock time for bed say no to waking up again feeling not of this earth that's not of this earth brings all comfort to no reason never



know where you go what if the intangible that something to earth not of earth that something all comfort no reason some reason

more conquest more proud division
another rape for a strong man it scares you into submission
now's the time to face the home rule.
it's our find,
never give it back our kind
shut'em out shine a light bring'em out
take no flight never give in more conquest more
proud division another rape for a strong man it scares you
into submission now's the time to face the home rule all alone never give
in hold tight what you know birthright gift of pride look down upon your foe

I comprehend these laws with no particulars
the trappings of it all can never give in turn
a concept of counsel of the inner wealth
perception of the dark all in you stealth
a sublime substance controlled abstinence sublime
success unworldly happiness a pointed
eloquence in its sublimity precision eminence of all solemnity
for the inner wealth perception of the dark all in your stealth a
necessary call, a law a perspective change, a law

Lights shine from the burning faces
I don't care if it blinds me shadows gesture me
for panic but there's never anywhere to flattered
from media sized rages never to miss the wicked ways
not so easy to get fooled by emergency broadcast rule it's a relapse!
a point of collapse!
god bless my soul it's up to you now crawl on all of us another message
attempt to scare us again
rejection of all what is said
I listen to only what's discordant like the sting of razor sharp glass
enjoy the scene of torches burning laugh at a poisoned gasp this is only a test
this is only a test this is only a test sit and watch windows
the plodding flames lick a dozen stars
discredit any hopeful discerning rejoice the thought of future scars

Go ahead and rise above, see how far you get on top.
Held down just to impair you.
We know who's ahead of the game.
You know who'll get the blame.
You're in the grip of the controller.
Do you really want it all back?
See how far you get on top.
Held down just to impair you.
It's the fear that you can't do right.
See how you lose in your life
Cut down, they will impale you.
Can you really get it on track?
You tried to make it all stop.
Time will tell how much they denied you.
You just got burnt by the controller.
You'll never know how to react.
Your sucked to the very last drop.
Time will tell what has been denied you.
Are you clear in your mind and sight?
Are you clear right out of your head?
Just angry at the things that have failed you.
So you want to get it all back.
You tried to make it all last.
Tied down to control you.

Another rude awakening.
The hard life that's been our school.
More of a cruel day's reckonings.
Our prime time used up too soon.
There is no kindness to waste
Why help those crying for more?
It spins you around, takes you for a ride.
What is the point to even try?
Somehow got to learn to accept the rejection.
The tired thoughts from troubling.
A weary mind from worrying.
Your constant fears upon wakening.
Your real life left in your dreams.

Confusions born here every day,
Spinning circles upon my brain.
No idea which way to go,
Roam around without a home.

So fucking lost, invalidated.
So brought down demasculated,
All the joy just disappeared;
Another bed full of tears.

Coming apart at the seams,
Want to be alone for the rest of my years.
Don't come inside,
Leave it to me to go on unfortunately.

Hope dissolved, degenerated.
The negative has penetrated.
No wish for sympathy.
It's all a mystery to me

All my wishes evaporated,
Insecurities saturated.
So many flaws reappeared.
The wrong way I tend to steer.

You've never come close to seeing what I've always had to face. Image blatant and obvious-What's there more to assess?
Never looking beyond the frontal-All your present fears. I hope to never be caught again by the visions too clear. Erase it.
Deface it. Conceal it. Just take it for the face value- Concealment, nonetheless. Just take it for the face value- You never know
what you may get. A wise man carried on about what you see is what you get. I've peeled off covers, revealing what I want to
forget. Why not go base yourself on simple visages. Scarring the complexion or scratching the surface.

Why should I devalue my position?
Do I need to be a part of the fold?
Don't need any sort of reason.

I'll just go out and follow my own path.
Take note of this: Anyone can trip.
Take note of this: You can walk with the best.
Walking with the finest.

Why should I sell myself short?
Should I lower my ideals and standards?
Must I settle for hand me downs?

I deserve the best my mind can do.
I can do.
I think I know which road to go.

It leads up to the very top.
I don't need your sense of direction.
You can just stumble on and on.

Never had a thought so how can you see me?
A man without a mind can never judge evenly.
Forever passing judgment compared to a fraud.

I'll never pare up.
I'll only distort your sight;
Only distort your sight.
It don't matter, knife in your hand.

I'll cut you down with a knife in my head.
It don't matter knife in my hand.
You can never mend it with a knife in your head.
I want a slice, can I carve evenly?

A man with no part moves so passively.
Can I cut you up, can I say you're a fraud?
You'll never pare up, I'll only destroy your size.

I just know its all gone wrong,
feeling all the pressures can't weather the storm.
'Cause I kept myself in a cage all wound up and filled up with rage.
Forgive oneself of nothing at all

Pounding my head against the wall.
Guilt ridden and bound to lose.
Puncture my wounds, won't see the truth.
I looked in the mirror, what did I see?

One man bitter with apathy.
The whole thing turned out to be a joke.
But I'm not laughing.
I'm without hope.

Its never well thought out, just my instant demise.
Haste and hatred my inner desire.
It's all so bitter the hurt inside.
Haste and hatred my inner desire.

Ruptured I've lost it all.
My heart ripped out can't stand at all.
'Cause I've cost my brain to never relax.
Picking at all the torturous facts.

My whole life counting dimes worried about uncertainty
So I roll the dice before I die, maybe get a little for me
I bet it, bet it all- threw everything into a pile
Regret it got nothing at all, no guarantees, no pieces of the pie

Got the eyes on you, black eyes on you ruin it for you if they could
Eyes on you, black eyes on you mansruin for his own good
Eyes on you, black eyes on you mansruin for his own good

High life all the highlights covered on the plays of the day
Baked out, burnt right out of it, breath fried beyond repair
I tasted it, devoured it ballooned right out of sight
A done deal dealt out by fate scored myself a bite of non life

Got the eyes on you, black eyes on you ruin it for you if they could
Eyes on you, black eyes on you mansruin for his own good
Eyes on you, black eyes on you ruin it for you if they could
Eyes on you, black eyes on you mansruin for his own good

Mansruin for his own good
Mansruin for his own good

Fucked out, fucked out of everything
Drained at the end of each day
A red cent, no pennies from heaven
Taken for a chump for life

Mansruin for his own good
Mansruin for his own good
Mansruin for his own good

I had a new premonition.
I have found the nonlight.
I've had a brand new renewal of sight.

Do you need a new genuflection?
Do you want to make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts.
It's the end-innocence gone.

You're whole meaning becomes undone.
Are you waiting for your resurrection?
Do you want to make a different pact?
You've got to get in with the facts.

You've made an art of treachery.
You can snake right out of anything.
I've said I won't do not a thing.
To the double negative you can only agree.

Be careful what you want, it may be what you get.
Careful of yourself, you may just kill yourself.
Watch out for all the ruin that you ask for.
Being trapped below, is that what you need

Careful what you get, it may just get you back.
How much more?
Relive the nightmares of the past.
Think twice about the ruin that you ask for.

Still ignoring all the warnings you see?
A lifetime wronged you.
Dark Signs warned you.
Feel me self destruct

You're gonna get exactly what you're gonna get.
You suffer more and more and then you blame yourself.
Those signposts that point to disaster
Ignore the signals, you get what you see.

A clue from knowledge, ward off the casualties
The mindless banter of all the derogatory
It's the best thing that could happen even with all the dread
It'll so good to see the backs of your heads

Got my own sign, my own line, to hell with the doubt
Got my own sign, my own line, you gotta hear me out
Got my own place, my own space

It's my proud division that will free me
My proud division that will free me

Piece together the madness with a clue to all the wrong
Follow the right way never wanna be wrong
Pledge allegiance to all your own beliefs
In accordance to your own individual breed

Got my own sign, my own line divisive and proud
Got my own place, my own place to hell with the doubt
Got my own place, my own ways to fight the crowd

It's my proud division that will free me
It's my proud division that will free me, yeah

A clue from knowledge, ward off the casualties
The mindless banter of all the derogatory
It's the best thing that could happen even with all the dread
It feels so good to see the back of your head

Got my own sign, my own line, divisive proud
Got my own sign, my own time, divisive proud

Diggin' for answers you fall in a hole
Lessons of nonsense shall cast the first stone
Pontifical preachings past now quick to forget 'em
I'm depending on no one I distrust and oppose
Prove you, prove you wrong
You can bet on it, I'll prove you wrong
Prove you, prove you wrong
Depend on it, I'll prove you wrong
Quest for solutions
You ain't gonna get one here
Why waste my breath upon the ears of the deaf man
Skeptic acceptance caution
Fraudulent cause
Dependence on no one best distrust and oppose

You wanna know something
Well I'd give you hell if I could
Still I try so hard not to care
Sold on the excess, chasing the tail to the cage
Joke's on you, you're sliding, of not far to go

You wanna know something
I'd give you hell if I could
You've not far to go
I'd give you hell if I could
I swear you've know far to go

Some are so sad
They pray the bad go away
I itch and sore and still I can't complain
Singing have gun will travel
If all looks so stupid to me
Seconds stutter backward
And not far to go

Look, Listen, Learn

All I've been taught
All that confused me
Irrelevant thoughts
All just to use me
For society's will
Denied my own person
But there's still a will
For my very own lesson

Now I know nothing that my mind can't create
Now they'll know something of the mind they create

Look, Listen, Learn
It's time they learn

Rite to my will
Rite to my impulse
Territorial rites
Right to your downfall

Diggin' for answers you fall in a hole
Lessons of nonsense shall cast the first stone
Pontifical preachings past now quick to forget 'em
I'm depending on no one I distrust and oppose
Prove you, prove you wrong
You can bet on it, I'll prove you wrong
Prove you, prove you wrong
Depend on it, I'll prove you wrong
Quest for solutions
You ain't gonna get one here
Why waste my breath upon the ears of the deaf man
Skeptic acceptance caution
Fraudulent cause
Dependence on no one best distrust and oppose

THE FLAG OF FREE ENTERPRISE, FRONTS AS YOU FEND
IN THE BATTLEFIELD OF BUREAUCRACY, THE TRENCHES YOU SHALL TEND
IN THESE DAYS OF ADVERSITY, THE HASSLE NEVER ENDS.
THE NEMESIS OF FORTITUDE, HOLDS A GUN TO YOUR HEAD!
ON YOUR KNEES! KNEEL! SAY YOUR PRAYERS!
FOR DEAR LIFE! FOR DEAR LIFE! FOR DEAR LIFE! FOR DEAR LIFE!
YOU'RE HOLDING ON FOR DEAR LIFE!
SHOW SOME HUMILITY TO THE POWERS THAT BE.
A GESTURE TO MORTALITY -- YOUR BLIND LIBERTY.
ON YOUR KNEES! KNEEL! SAY YOUR PRAYERS!
FOR DEAR LIFE! FOR DEAR LIFE! FOR DEAR LIFE! FOR DEAR LIFE!
YOU'RE HOLDING ON FOR DEAR LIFE!
LIFE. FOR DEAR LIFE.

YOU CHOOSE A PATH
CLOSE TO COLLAPSE
STRETCHED TO THE LIMIT
FALLING APART
THE LIGHT TURNS BACK
WHERE YOU CHOOSE TO PASS
FINALLY INTO OBLIVION
STEADY DECLINE
A QUIRK OF FATE
CAN'T STOP THIS WAIT
BIT IT TOOK
A QUIRK OF FATE
TO IGNITE THE SPARK
INNOCENCE AND YOUTH
YOUTH AND INNOCENCE
TAKES SO LITTLE TO TEAR IT APART
TEAR IT APART
STEADY DECLINE
WITNESS TO THE CRIME

You make the right moves, I beg to differ
Rather be a fool and see things clearer
You found a quick way to fill your pocket
That's the way in a world that's lost it
To fall in line
Its meaningless, mindlessness
I beg to differ
Disharmony amongst all our brothers
That's okay, be true to our grudges
No desire to walk beside you
Nothing positive when forced upon you
(So fall in line) Just fall in line
It's meaningless, mindlessness
I beg to differ

EXPOSING ALL THE FRAUDS, THOSE HEROES FOR A CAUSE.
THEY'RE HOLDING SOME KEY, CONFUSING IDENTITIES.
THE LOST AND FOUND
LOST IN A CROWD
LOOK WHAT THEY'VE FOUND
THEY'RE FAKING IN THE BUCK.
PURVEYORS OF SO MUCH LUCK.
UPHOLDING A TRUE SCOPE: FLAG WAVING EGO.
THE LOST AND FOUND
LOST IN A CROWD
LOOK WHAT THEY'VE FOUND
THE LOST AND FOUND!

SHAKE THE SLAB OF FLESH, TAUNTING FOR A FETCH,
TIME TO RING THE CHIME.
WET THE APPETITE, TEETH ARE GRINDING TIGHT,
REINFORCING LIFE.
DROOLING DOWN THE SIDES, EYES ARE BULGING WIDE
YES THE PRICE IS RIGHT.
THE CUT IS VERY TOUGH, GRISTLES GOOD ENOUGH
THEY ALL NEED A BITE.
NO TOLLING OF THE BELL, JUST THE ONE TO HELL
THERE THEY'LL ALL KNOW.
THIMBLEFUL TO CHANCE, PAY THE LUXURY TAX
DO NOT PASS GO.
TRY AND BRING THE BEEF, SEE WHAT IS TO KEEP
NOT A PRETTY SIGHT.
THE CUT IS VERY TOUGH, YOU BIT THE BIG BLUFF
TAKE ANOTHER BITE.

[T. Victor-M. Kirlkland-T. Parsons]

THE RETREADS ON THE GO
THOUGHT IT WAS A HOAX
BUT LOOKED AROUND AND SAW IT
READY TO AGAIN EXPLODE
WHEN WILL IT GO AWAY?
TOO BAD IT'S HERE TO STAY.
RECYCLED, NEW IMPROVED, JUMP ON IT AND GET SAFE!
THEY LIKE IT SHALLOW, THEY LIKE IT FAKE
LIKE IT BORROWED
LIKE IT NARROW, LIKE THEIR BRAIN
THEY'RE GONNA SWALLOW
JUST THE SAME
UNDER THE GUISE OF LATE, FOR THOSE BORN TOO LATE
A CONCEPT BENEFACTING A CULTURE IN A NEEDY STATE.
SO WHAT IF IT'S BEEN USED, AS LONG AS NO ONE SUES
JUST REHASH AND TRASH IT FOR THE FOOLS TO USE AND GET SAFE!
THEY LIKE IT SHALLOW, THEY LIKE IT FAKE
LIKE IT BORROWED
LIKE IT NARROW, LIKE THEIR BRAIN
THEY'RE GONNA SWALLOW
JUST THE SAME
GENRES OVER SOLD, SAMPLED AND STOLE.
REDISCOVERED THEMES SO POORLY OVER TOLD.
THE WAGONS ON THE ROAD, WORN OUT THOUGHT ABODE
TIRED STYLE LOST NOW FINDS A NEW HOME.

[D. Edge H. Creed]

SEEING THEIR CHILDREN, CAUGHT UP IN THE LATEST FAD
THEIR PARENTS ARE WORRIED, THINKING THEY'VE GONE BAD
EVERYTHING'S THE SAME, NOTHING HAS CHANGED
EVERYTHING'S THE SAME
NOTHING HAS CHANGED; CHANGES TOMORROW
TAKING THEIR AXES, THEY'RE TURNING AN AMBER RED
MAKING A NOISE ABLE TO WAKE THE DEAD.
EVERYTHING'S THE SAME, NOTHING HAS CHANGED
EVERYTHING'S THE SAME
NOTHING HAS CHANGED AT ALL, CHANGED IN OUR WORLD
LOOKING THROUGH WINDOWS ONLY TO SEE THE RAIN.
THE WAY THEY ARE MOVING, GROUND ZERO ATTACK MY BRAIN

Look, Listen, Learn

All I've been taught
All that confused me
Irrelevant thoughts
All just to use me
For society's will
Denied my own person
But there's still a will
For my very own lesson

Now I know nothing that my mind can't create
Now they'll know something of the mind they create

Look, Listen, Learn
It's time they learn

Rite to my will
Rite to my impulse
Territorial rites
Right to your downfall

Unconditional soon to be damned
An individual high in demand
Institutions fill the begging hands
Clean the ashes where we used to stand
Uninvited with open arms
Complacent walls keeping out all harm
I'm bound, unbound, unwound
Unconditional
Unconditional bad for good
Clutching glad hand misunderstood
A tight cold grip, eager to pull
With a little luck
Fake out the rule

Positively blind
You can't see you're opaque from the light
Looking at the bright can be negative
Road turns only right and runs narrow
You're detoured out of sight
But the first one to arrive at the conclusive

Unaware of signs before you, ignorant of times
Choose to undermine the clear truth
Everything must shine in your life
Polishing your pride
No one can belie optimistic proof

All of those so proud
Just forget about it
Your future's further in doubt
All of those so proud
Won't improve upon it
Their future's further in doubt

Diggin' for answers you fall in a hole
Lessons of nonsense shall cast the first stone
Pontifical preachings past now quick to forget 'em
I'm depending on no one I distrust and oppose
Prove you, prove you wrong
You can bet on it, I'll prove you wrong
Prove you, prove you wrong
Depend on it, I'll prove you wrong
Quest for solutions
You ain't gonna get one here
Why waste my breath upon the ears of the deaf man
Skeptic acceptance caution
Fraudulent cause
Dependence on no one best distrust and oppose

You wanna know something
Well I'd give you hell if I could
Still I try so hard not to care
Sold on the excess, chasing the tail to the cage
Joke's on you, you're sliding, of not far to go

You wanna know something
I'd give you hell if I could
You've not far to go
I'd give you hell if I could
I swear you've know far to go

Some are so sad
They pray the bad go away
I itch and sore and still I can't complain
Singing have gun will travel
If all looks so stupid to me
Seconds stutter backward
And not far to go

Hitman's got no doubt about
Position in the work place
A matter of investment
Ridding human excess
Dealing stocks and bonds of blood
Shotgun dividends
But you hold a gun that's smoking

So pointless keep pushing
Keep shooting so pointless

Head full 'o bullets
A soul that's been spent
That be the pension
In bizness dealt with lead
Kickbacks and cutbacks
They all stab you in the back
The bloody palms
Primed for greasing

Time for double standards
Now who shall be blamed
With the change of weather
Scapegoats are acclaimed
Acts of no reason: populous response
Opinions are like assholes
Everyone's one

All these contradictions
Are bound to confuse
What wrong will you choose?

Can I ask a question?
Or am I out of line
Some more lip service
Will smooth it out nice

A conscience keeps burning; fiery hell in
Your mind - transgression, deception, personal
Thought crime
Led into temptation, continuance sin
Punishment time, punish the mind
Guild embedded in

Tearing Torn Tearing Torn between two poles

Human animal flesh and bones
Spirits, auras and souls
One undone, one's enough and one only knows

Tearing Torn Tearing Torn between two poles
You're never whole

Latching onto the crowd
They never ever did it that way
Guided by a brainwave
Follow the light shunned by the herd
All the postures being played
So many proud do it that way
Coppin' on the new rave
After the fact a bit too late

They want to fit in so fucking bad
On all fours kissing so much ass
But the true will stick it through

Not fit in So be it

You can call some insane
But some use choice and do it their way
With a message to prey
Unity power within their range
Wounded in a fight
Better off dead and save your face
Too many on a straight wave
On a sick path, a clueless trace

Not fit in So be it

It is a reason why I got control
It's the treason, better off alone
Got an answer; individual creed
Got advantage, don't really need 'em

Shouldn't have bothered
Reaching out to fools

They're the patients, conditions; worse
Got the patience, it's in the works
Their impressions are such a waste
My investment is my own fate

News of senseless agression
Journalistic sensation, quick reasons to mention
Paraded so soulfully
Stated so righteously
One vision to convey
Nothing more to say

The cause - no way to deny it
Ignore it it won't disappear
No way to deny it
The wrongs - no way to deny them
Ignore them they won't disappear
No way to deny it

News eating the nation
Editorialization (quick reasons to mention)
Concluded too easily
Repeated in history
Someone's got to pay
Nothing more to say

News of constant deception
Censored reception
Quick reasons to mention
Soudbites - all too clear
Left rights!
The end is near!
Someone's got to pay
Nothing more to say

Whoa all in vain trouble for the man is all the same for the most part
Would never have thought that I'd ever come close to this inside
Equal in the fact that we all may pass at anytime
Illusion is gone new clarity of thought and the insight
Too serious now for clouded eyes gonna look right
I'm gonna tell you it's all in vain the choice is made
I'm gonna tell you there is no blame gonna tell you
We're gonna roll right through it all
It's not affecting it has no meaning detached from it all
All in vain subtle for the hands if not much pain for the lost heart
Remainder of the being bold enough keep their heads high
Keeping those away from what they know is a total lie
I'm gonna tell you its all in vain it's all a game choice is made
There is no blame it's all in vain I'm gonna tell you
We're gonna roll right through it all
It's not affecting it has no meaning detached from it all
It's not affecting our daily living detached from it all
All in vain gonna tell you it's all a game
Gonna tell you the choice is made gonna tell you its all in vain
All in vain gonna tell you the choice is made
Gonna tell you it's all the same for the most part
Gonna tell you it's all in vain gonna tell you
We're gonna roll right through it all
It's not affecting it has no meaning detached from it all
We're gonna roll right through it all
It's not affecting it has no meaning it's not affecting our daily living
We're not expecting it's not defeating detached from it all

Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Nothing fucking worked no matter how hard I tried
Wanted all to be perfect wanted it to be right
All knowing force what is this worth
All knowing forced to believe in
All knowing force a time for growth
All knowing forced to believe in
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
I relinquish it all tappin' into the signs
Now I've been let down disappointment at a height
Absorb the energy takin' in the vibe
Doesn't need to be perfect expect to be right
All knowing force what is this worth
All knowing forced to believe in
All knowing force a time for growth
All knowing forced to believe in forced whoa
Nothing fucking worked how hard I tried
Wanted it to be perfect expect to be right
All knowing force what is this worth
All knowing forced to believe in
All knowing force a time for growth
All knowing forced to believe in
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck
Baby the first fuck baby the first fuck

Initiation into a whole other realm of being
Initiation into a new way of becoming
Transfiguration a step into the rest
A true condition an embrace into the depth

To see what you need to see to see what you cannot see
To be where you need to be to be where you wanna be
To see what you need to see to see what you cannot see
Embrace the depth embrace the depth
Embrace the depth embrace the depth
Embrace the depth embrace the depth
Initiation balance beam on the cross
Initiation lightbringer to the lost
Appreciation of all and all that's gone
An affirmation of what one has become
Initiation embrace the depth embrace the depth
Initiation embrace the depth embrace the depth
Into a whole other realm of being into a new way of becoming
A step into the rest an embrace into the depth
Beam on the cross lightbringer to the lost
Of all and all that's gone of what one has become
To be where you need to be to be where you wanna be
To see what you need to see to see what you cannot see
To be where you need to be to be where you need to be
To be where you wanna be to be where you wanna be
To see what you need to see to see what you need to see
To see what you cannot to see what you cannot see
Embrace the depth embrace the depth

Embrace the depth embrace the depth
Embrace the depth embrace the depth

Spirits of this world trying to trip me out
Filling me with fear keeping me in doubt
Don't do it can't do it
Never find it right never see no light
Never whole inside nonsense in my mind
So done with it I'm over it
Tired of basin' my life on reactive mind
I'm a dependant type to be self sufficient
Delusions how they hide how can't survive
The confusing needs others cursing me
Can't have it can't live with it
Tired of basin' my life on the reactive mind
I'm a dependant type to be self sufficient
Tired of basin' my life on the reactive mind
I'm a dependant type to be
Self sufficient self sufficient whoa
I'm a dependant type
I'm a dependant type with reactive mind
Need to magnify the will to get right
Enough is always more but don't want to score
Can't have it can't do it
I'm a dependant type with reactive mind
I'm a dependant type with reactive mind
To be self sufficient self sufficient

Life that was not life that meant not life that was not meant to be

Hangman twenty three you got the magic twenty three
King man seventeen you got the secret seventeen
Hangman twenty three departure with the number twenty three
Coat of scarlet guard of angels armed with silence to be regal
What's become the common type to be above
What's become the current shape a life that was not meant to be
That's denied of highs a quantity of lows
A life that was not meant to be abundance of nice without any foes
Mind of violet show the armor holy numbers to be regal
Hangedman on his knees you got the magice twenty three
King man seventeen entrance with the number seventeen
To be above what's become the common type
To be above what's become the current shape
A life that was not meant to be that's denied of highs a quantity of lows
A life that was not meant to be abundance of nice without any foes aah
Life that was not life that meant not life that was not meant to be
Life that was not life that meant not life that was not meant to be
Life that was not life that meant not life that was not meant to be

Ooh playin' with my coins I'm gonna be the changemaker
With a single iron bar you tend to set your limitations
Moving on the next sale
Going for the moment breakin' out of boredom
Climbin' from the bottom comin' from the cauldron
Inner truth to the surface inner truth to the surface aah
With the path of the snake I'm gonna be your changemaker
Crawling on the floor you tend to set your limitations
Moving on to the next scale
Seizing of the moment breakin' out of boredom
Climbin' from the bottom comin' from the cauldron
Inner truth to the surface inner truth to the surface
Aah inner truth to the surface inner truth to the surface
Goin' for the moment breakin' out of boredom

You got the reason why I'm falling way out of way
I know it's easy to be of promise I'm calling out to pray
I know the reason why I'm calling way out to pray
It's never easy to believe a promise I'm stalling now to say
All insane all in vain all for lack of a reason
All insane all in vain all for lack of a reason
I got no reason why I'm crawling on this certain way
I know it's easy to be anonymous not crawling to be safe
For some reason I am falling falling out of way
I think I'm ceasing to be harnessed avoid it any way
All insane all in vain all for lack of a reason
All insane all in vain all for lack of a reason
All insane all in vain all for lack of a reason
All insane all in vain all for lack of a reason

Face to face with you my law I hope to all day reach that call
You forgave my every fall I never knew what you were about
Face to face with truth your word why did I listen to wrongs I heard
Self help methods schemed by jesters
Getting advice from the earth's master
One drop a word to the wise
Out of this realm leave the stones behind
Out of this realm leave the stones behind
Go forward with the seed of a planter
With mortar and bricks of a builder
One drop a word to the wise
Out of this realm leave the stones behind
Face to face with you my law I hope to all day reach that calm
As I set my heart upon your rock I put my eye on the golden orb
As I weep for those unlearned the ones too stiff for necks to turn
Self help methods schemed by jesters
Getting advice from the earth's master
One drop a word to the wise
Out of this realm leave the stones behind
Out of this realm leave the stones behind
Go forward with the seed of a planter

Entering as an eclipse a fiery orb with wings
Sent into beast body to conquer ungodly grips
Transform into a pyramid a triangle of holy devour
To become diamond powerful jewel
Shining brighter and brighter
To give eye to be wise to give grace a new space
Lift uplifter lift extract into the abyss
Sift great sifter sift entrance of the eclipse
Just a sojourner with no luggage to heed
A furious passserby with rod and ox to steer
Overcoming earth's cursed throne next plane to provoke
The camelback patriarch seven miles to go
Lift uplifter lift extract into the abyss
Sift great sifter sift entrance of the eclipse
Lift uplifter lift extract into the abyss
Sift great sifter sift entrance of the eclipse
To give eye it's getting brighter and brighter
To be wise it's getting dire and dire

At times I think you served injustice sometimes I take it blessing alone
At times I feel so disserviced other times I thank God alone
Was it a gift of independence to find my own self as a whole
But mostly I think you were selfish not knowin' these answers at all
Which one was it whichever it shall be
Which one was it to be kind or displease
I really wanna know it with silence I'm not free which one was it
But now in a flash I realize experience wisdom to know
Did this myself to conquer the worm of your cavernous soul
Which one was it whichever it shall be
Which one was it to be kind of displease
I really wanna know it with silence I'm not free
Can I let go of it can you answer truthfully
Don't you remember you never did answer me
Left to interpret alone don't you remember
I never got an answer can I try to resolve
I really wanna know it with silence I'm not free
Can I let go of it can you answer truthfully
But now in a flash I realize experience wisdom to know
Did this myself to conquer the worm of your cavernous soul
Which one was it now I really don't care
Which one was it I hope I never ask that question again
Which one was it now I really don't care
Which one was it I hope I never ask that question again
I really wanna know it with silence I'm not free
Can I let go of it can you answer truthfully
