Indulging ourselves
To heartless strands
Sculpting perspectives
Through soiled hands
Inherited patterns
It’s all we’re shown
Filtered portraits
Through painted tones
Release the tradition
That has buried you
Save yourself and start anew

A mere notion long past it’s due
A coiled stance against what you thought you knew
In all but yourself casting for merit
Your rigid views I wont inherit
Keeper of peace
Bringer of hope
Blinded by a holy ghost
Every word, a lesson to bear
Shade still lies within your prayers
I think it’s time you see this through
You dealt your life in absolutes
A product of misguided truths
Rotting away in a man made hell
Judging the world before you gaze yourself
Your vile canvas cloaked by a sacred mold
Save your reason your heart runs cold
Keeper of peace
Bringer of hope
Blinded by a holy ghost
Every word, a lesson to bear
Shade still lies within your prayers
These confined measures will not last
Your take on this world is losing its grasp
Bolded advocates shape your perception
Dragging others down to reach your ascension
Held captive by a mask of deceit
Open your eyes withdraw this conceit
Keeper of peace
Bringer of hope
Blinded by a holy ghost
Every word, a lesson to bear
Shade still lies within your prayers

Dragging me further and further
From the oath I swore
Just a shadow of a face and nothing more
Bitter truths to the cards you dealt
Tainted steps just to save yourself
Starving hearts so easily corrupted
Another cut from the one I trusted
Reaching out and you stabbed me again
Bleeding out for a means to an end
All these years yet you’re still the same
Can’t you see that I lost my faith
Makeshift endeavors to feel alive
Destructive patterns to leave behind
Why did I ever sink myself into you
Countless days left ignoring the truth
Exploited my loyalty for far too long
I’m still breathing but my heart is gone
A sleepless malice, preys off your deepest dream
Entwined myself into the most selfish of schemes
You gave me your word and I took the bait
The bond we shared now scaled with grey
All these years yet you’re still the same
Can’t you see that I lost my faith
Makeshift endeavors to feel alive
Destructive patterns to leave behind

Fallen captive to a wool spun hollow
They’ll bend the truth
Until we follow
Shaping arms and forging crowns
Liberty forever drowned
Suits and daggers silencing tragedy with lies
Self infliction the reason why
Every promise, spoken in tongues
No remorse for the crimes they’ve done
Another headline to shift our focus
Fooled the masses to raise their torches
Morals beyond lost like children in the dark
Thoughts and prayers we should have gave from the start
Our source consumed by scripts and twisted tales
Humanity left rotting on a massive scale
Where’s the truth in organized disasters
They’re leading us blind until our hereafter
Igniting their flames across the earth
Ceasing lives through volumes at birth
Decades of false flags have lined their notes
If it’s truly for freedom
They’d forsake their choke
Purity a pretty price
Sustained their landmarks before the element that brings life
Another headline to shift our focus
Fooled the masses to raise their torches
Morals beyond lost like children in the dark
Thoughts and prayers we should have gave from the start
Every shred of balance held in their contempt
The everlasting statement to their one percent
Blessed with a life, it’s theirs to keep
One step forward, six feet deep

In elegance, we’re all alone
Chaining ourselves to hearts of stone
Pleading thoughts long chambered within
Isolated for the bless of our kin
This life of yours, it’s yours to choose
No excuses, just your will to prove
This is your body
These are your days
All that’s left
A path we all must take
You don’t have to pretend
Follow your heart
It’s yours to pledge
Holding on won’t let you grow
Accepting half a life
You deserve one that’s whole
Pulling you back from underneath
Is this who you’re truly meant to be
You only owe this to yourself
So why not take the leap
I just want you to see
You narrowed your hope for the sake of another
Save your soul before it’s lost forever
Shallow hands have held you close
Falling short to what you seek the most
You’ve held your breathe for far too long
The coldest of dusks now begging for dawn
Holding on won’t let you grow
Accepting half a life
You deserve one that’s whole
Pulling you back from underneath
Is this who you’re truly meant to be
You don’t have to pretend
Follow your heart
It’s yours to pledge
Holding on won’t let you grow
Accepting half a life
You deserve one that’s whole
Pulling you back from underneath
Is this who you’re truly meant to be
