The Craft of Contradiction

The crimson clad avenger of the deep Cleaved the harlot of her might Thwarting her nameless destiny A vast kinship the prize for his feat But the vital fruit within her womb Left a need intact it brought them to extract Terror and water sliced the veil And brought the thieving bandits of heaven They stole the glory from our mother's breast Long before we were a thought in time Who can hear this weighted wit? The wisest one envisioned a conspiracy A clever craft of code and soil 'We'll augmen the essence of her beasts Akin to ours, like two scheming serpents entertwined' Endure the venom, which expand the veins Exist to feel the coils now constrict the spine Breathe through the mixed blood That courses to form new life Sons and daughters of earth and stars Unaware that their lives deny The natural course the unspoken word The celestial breed have passed their sins down Deeply ingrained are slave binding chains and blind servitude I heed the tongues and ears of the gods Devoted my existence to all their needs I feel the surge of the makers pride A faint pulse of defiance growing with each involuntary breath Longing to breach this damnable craft of limitations The voracity burns, devotion like fire Hate and desire are embedded thorns on a costumed flesh

Mortal woman you've bewitched my kind Take my hand and sew it deep in secrecy Once agan transgress the line, the demigods will rise When creation takes its part as the creator New born, your eyes are that of mine Unto to you knowledge is owed Read the signs and the lines The older ones share not the understanding They dine with beasts and scrounge the dirt like dogs With iron hands take the rule Your very blood kanes you the chosen But for all your virtues, I'm still the master Let your mind illuminate, and pass on all I show It must be done for immortality Is something you'll never know Servant hear the war songs call A heaven born rivalry, now spawned Be my hand that takes, be my voice that dominates Be the horde when whose purpose dies I'll leave for death and forsake Smite the enemy before you and wield the onslaught of my wrath A deadly foe is the one they call master My reign's rival on our native world Strike down, strike down The pieces dance to our violent child's play And you are the pawns Unleash the greatest weapons Let murder and terror now be unbound The wind holds and inescapable death cloud Let earth's children choke on their mortal coil Flee now, flee now a near fatal scar on her brow And yet we depart unscathed New born, your eyes are that on mine Unto to you knowledge is owed Read the signs and the lines Let your mind illuminate, and pass on all I show It must be done for immortality Is something you'll never know

Under the banner of the righteous Let all kingship reside Within the shadow of this new faith Dark feeds the light The fair malign, the truth it binds Its lies enchant the mind Avert your eyes children of the sun Take to the dim lit halls Of preaching fears and symbols Your ancestor's heroes are all here you'll see We've only renamed them to stall out the liars You're deemed unworthy, born lost in sin Kneel now or be thrown to redemption Death by fire shall be the punishment A religious political motive infecting like a plague Burn in fire with all the sinful dead Question not these methods, let the epidemic spread Hosts of angels help guide this blinding path They look just like you, it's so easy to accept Give your life now to this divine rule Ancient symbols stolen from olden times Riddled with the human form to ease the pressing of their minds Where are the signs where is the real truth? The parables are still intact, but sung to different tunes What makes this faith the sole exception? All those tales that came before were of the devil's anticipation Bend your knee and submit, let the epidemic spread

Your gifted crown forms the bond Our presence in you fuels the burn Our malintentions in your sides are the spurs You are the mask that squanders the abuse Cast them down Eradicate those that suspect us Spin for all The web of deceit made strong by belief Cloak the magic That keesp us as shadows that cling to your form Don't ask 'why?' Just know we'll still be here long after you've died We've guided generations until death Status and power was еnough as reward We nurse on frail bodiеs to prolong life A force down the hammer of the divine right These earth years speed on, the mission has not strayed Through fear and thought we form a unity depraved All that is, is all that's not Feed these beliefs till they can no longer be undone

Once your eyes dawned upon this world You underwent the unsuspected implant A subtle force digesting the forming words Blame not the ones you were born unto Their fate has been just as your The need to belong is your life's knell The need to belong is your life's knell A fixed stare on the skies of propaganda Taking in all the things you must feel The need to belong is your life's knell Attempt not to break the prison's pattern Show not how you can see the pieces never mesh The need to belong is your life's knell Can your soul take the withdrawal? The searing pain when you dare to look deep inwards? See dark faces staring back Sinister eyes malign gaze To re-inject the poison and silence the waking mind Those around you will ensure the drugs ingestion Your epitaph reads all you have learned Unable to see beyond the structured lines Blinded and branded Thought is yours of the majority Or that which fights off addiction It's yours to tell, never break the spell Hear your life's knell Ringing

Plotting down through the ages The planet grows bitter oppressed by the signs Riding on our faith as adrenaline Our hate seethes the blackest disdain We chant the praises A deadly shrill ring to our enemies Ignoring the blatant irony They call the same god but in different speech Honor-measured greatly by those We chose to die for and the powers that be Never understanding our dark puppet masters share one hierarchy We are the fodder so ready and willing to take the great plunge A brute force so malevolent, ruthless and cold Our grand anger crumbles mountains before us And rains slaughter on those branded foes We silence the infidel voice, and hail glory expendable Planting seeds to fuel the fires of discontent A contagious social uproar Battle lines drawn and met when the bait is mauled and speld Yet we refuse to see Frailty the prime emission of human reactor Fear and guilt are of the surge they seek Frailty spiraling emotions of the lower kind Process their source of energy Warm blood shower, bathe the cloacked cold blooded cowards Still you refuse to see Viral limitations on a five sense reality Spiritual cyclons corrupted yet so cleverly placed Honor-measured greatly by those We chose to die for and the powers that be Never clearly seeing our dark puppet masters share one hierarchy Bound and gagged in institutions to indoctrinate Chaos dealt out in such an orderly fashion it bears for belief Intoxicating blinding illusions, the very air that we breathe Beating down those who dare discover the grand scheme of things Warm blood shower, bathe the cloacked cold blooded cowards Still you refuse to see

In the thought realm where sunlight meets shadow Without sound, without voice the olden soul calls The lifeless eyes of truth stare frozen As the serpent holds the grip on its throat Deep ingrained messages materialize my world Sightless wave patterns deform my vision The will to unlearn stretches far for new wisdom Each answer sews new threads to complex Incinerate the shackles of the dragons That bind and mold this make of existence Deny its purpose and transcend the chains that dominate and form the flesh prison The gift of life is a false claim When punishment plagues the waking hours We thrive off illusions as modern day slaves Transcribe the old rules and label them freedom From head to foot I see through the solstice From hand to hand the equinox speaks I am the light that mirrors the world I am the wind that gives the soar speech Violent beliefs forced down to conform Extinguish the spirit and form flesh Vacant beliefs gold no use for it all And the mouth of knowledge is too selfish to speak Yes, I can see the supreme malign face I'll reflect full potential when I vanquish its lies The mouth of knowledge is too selfish to speak Seeing more when the eyes are shut tighter than ever And every sense is hung and left to consume itself From head to foot I see through the solstice From hand to hand the equinox speaks This craft an olden plague Each breath a contradiction
