This is evil. We're all people Toppled and equal Climbing atop each other to ascend obstinate steeples Call it lethal All in belief, all in Her name Altered all the altars so we're all ascending in shame While defending the flame I'm a monolith Obnoxious toxic crosses tossed onto an obelisk It's preposterous The topics one would posture with The consequence of common sense proving this hypothesis Soot filled skies, leaving eyes blind mind flyin A million miles behind the time, chipping away at a child's smile Hiding from the very thing that you seek Cry for justice but you think you're immune (please) Crying at the alter, falter with your little words A lot of noise for nothing but an animated pile of dirt I'm born under a curse, a paragraph or two of work Scorn, speaking kinda curt, a stifled laugh at your hurt Give me freedom, give me liberty, give me death But give it in the afterlife knowing now what's next Broken every rule so we find ourselves in chains What began in Paradise ended up in flames Give me freedom, give me liberty, give me death But give it in the afterlife knowing now what's next Broken every rule so we found ourselves in chains What began in Paradise ended up in flames A ticking bomb held up in a mother's hand An hourglass broke, eyes poked With fragments of the wood and sand A monster feeding in a foreign land A choice you wanna upend It stalks you even though you turned and ran Wings spread, but really just to soar above you The hymns dead. But really words only cut you Father raised you up and said no-one could ever son you But from first step you took you walked away from that that loved you The battle of another realm swelling in its urgency Ready when it comes the war raging for eternity Signaling our penance til our karma gets replenished Steganographic compositions, messages embedded Guardian of angels while my mortal body breathing Considering the angles when confronted with my demons Material, ethereal memoirs that fill the shelves These notes are from bottom of the bottoms in the pits of Hell Give me freedom, give me liberty, give me death But give it in the afterlife knowing now what's next Broken every rule so we find ourselves in chains What began in Paradise ended up in flames Give me freedom, give me liberty, give me death But give it in the afterlife knowing now what's next Broken every rule so we found ourselves in chains What began in Paradise ended up in flames
