3, 2, 1, GO!
Deep inside a house of mirrors
Falsehoods drawing near
Through the blur and haze of all our days
It's only seeming so unclear
Forgive my disposition
Just a "you" in true fruition
I remember dimming the streetlight
I know every night
Oh, each foe that we've bested
God, each useless fight
All for naught
All such pointless manifesting
Quite the iconography
You've garnered on your journey
Know such iconography
Was never yours exclusively
I...
Know your venture's mine
Bore in your fear and in our minds
Or in the trеnches of our kind
I lurked in eigеngrau and pined
For when I taste your praise divine
Out pouring like wine!
Your praise
Remains
The blood inside my veins
So take
That stake
Stab it through
And show me your way!
If I'm the me
I truly ought to be
Then undeniably, it's clearly
Plain to see
I was never free
From thoughts of jealousy
Diminished vanity
And all the other thoughts that I couldn't concede
Forever free...
God, hear me
Who reflects who?
Why can't I stack up to you?
And why are the skies not the shade of blue
I've grown acquainted to?
You are something greater
For when it all turns to dust
Just as everything must
We can cut through the crowds, hereby saying:
Sup, bro
Can't you get enough, yo?
Hey, check out my dope flow
Can't live up to yours, though
That's apparent
You blow
Not even a tough foe
I don't mean to hit low (I won't hit low)
Echoing an ego
So transparent!
So, is this the way you fought them?
Tell me, is this how you brought them
To their knees with melodies?
Oh, such a feeble way you taught them
How strange
Spite of this form change
No matter what I say
I can't see your way
Doesn't matter! (OHHH)
Shatter my false perspective
SHATTERED SPECTIVES
It won't change my true objective
MY OBJECTIVE
View our form, how you reject it
OOOOH
No point trying to correct it
OOOOOOOH
Can't accept your complexion
YOUR COMPLEXION
Best I take a new direction
NEXT DIRECTION
Unlike those who try to hurt you
OOOOH
I'm a beast of my own virtue!
OOOOOOOH
Some would say that we were weaker
Some see more!
Just a little, feeble glimpse of what's in store
At its core, you're
No longer the you
That you're accustomed to
Now I can see that it's true
By all the actions you do
That disheartening smile
It's strewn apart and defiled
It's vile, ISN'T IT?
OOH, YEAH, HAHA!
Feel how that ego's drifting
Out to sea, where tides are shifting
Piercing through the heavens' prism
Shimmering a form now risen
Spreading out our torn wings
Sounding for the fool's king
