A fallen mastermind Decides to free his kind And under the spell Of oppression... he will We have all done hard time A visceral assembly Can remind those Who have gone cold It's a place they once called home My station in life was too easy I had to end that all I adverted to more jagged incisions... They leave you callused A stones throw from the grave Rehabilitates and paves A strong foundation Worthy of mentioning Let all your hate subside To trivial follies before the cataclysm Barricades itself within these walls The end of the line will start here My station in life was too easy I had to end that all I adverted to more jagged incisions... They leave you callused How do we allure to what is right Instead of conjuring up a hellion Who believes there really is a choice? Well... that says it all

Careful not to let down your guard Or you will turn this conversation Into a cry for help Before you make an attempt You sacrifice another day to this dead-end race This façade reopens old wounds To think of letting go... How could you When I sacrificed it all? Now lend your faith Towards somewhere else This path will lead to avarice so I'll secure my place in Hell There is no crawling out While you're still alive Stand tall to watch a shelf life Wear itself out My purpose here feels antiquated And like a double-edged sword It brought out the worst in me No better than the words I speak A contoured reaction sheds An inkling of truth That dissolved upon its debut
3.
Parallels 04:27
Imbedded lies the script My hands keep the pace I'm casting lines out knowing The hooks have no bait All they wanna hear Are repetitious songs To resonate the frequency That humans crave Meanwhile we all eat the cost How could they amend me From illusive madness? When did we raise That question and why? Straight ahead and full speed This fallacy approaches A clear image of a suicide By slow decline The secrets out and now Their talons grip tight Another hymn divulges Lost human rights and still We know talk is cheap But we forgot how to fight When you wash your hands Of this how can you Stomach your appetite?
4.
Same Page 03:33
We'll be fixing flaws within this program Your abandoned host will rise to speak Of things so benign you'll want to listen The dirt on a sole can get cleaned Pull apart this machinery to uncover It's inoculating force All around us... Spread thin The ground beneath your feet will shake "IN COMING" kneel down To rest your shields The fate of our demise Will one day tell the tale Plagued by this ethereal being That will enter in through the night Shortness of air intake Can commence the shell to vibrate Bed down, you can learn to operate These played out wavelengths Which we've bestowed To give in may be your only way A form of communication "IN COMING" kneel down To rest your shields The fate of our demise Will one day tell the tale So stand beside yourself To resuscitate The price of Kingdom Come Now watch me levitate

I try to keep a safe distance While I watch the rise and fall of an empire Too soon to tell from the faint reflexive pulse Though we proclaim that this algorithm will work To supply us with an infinite Collage of empirical evidence But it takes a lot of patience to deliver that While holding human life in high regard How long have you been a grey Roaming these streets, laying low undetected? Is it true you've been stealing energy From the sun to only feed others like you? To supply them with an infinite Collage of empirical evidence But it takes a lot of patience to deliver that While holding human life in high regard I'm sure you will fall Victim of the people And when we escape We will never crawl back To the source and You will be forced to Rethink your insidious Operation Wake up are you ready to live To rise above yeah to rise against? I said wake up are you ready to live To rise above this fiscal cliff? We've been broken but we will mend The time is now for a cosmic realignment A conscientious shift!
