Pariah, exiled, exiled, reviled, banished, suppressed, pariah,
detested, hated, chastised, berated, pariah. Derelict under
heavy hand, spurned within beguilement. Drenched in your
misinformation, misguide impressionate minds. Stepping
stoned towards minor success, witness vanity annihilate you.
Confront the beast within. Naked without weapons, we stand
up to you.
Take and take filled with hate. Fight and fight to fix mistake.
Reach and claw to tear away. Gather the truth for self
preservation. Threats of violence will no longer detour us. We
welcomed the thought of giving up, but the will to quit will end
up in damnation. To find the truth you have to lose, to grow
from loss we have to choose. Excepting you as damaged youth,
forgiving you is path to truth. Gathered the truth for self
preservation. The threat of violence will no longer detour us.
We welcome the thought of giving up, but the will to quit will
end up in damnation. Forgive but not forget.
Truth, it comes to those who seek, you choose to hide behind
the weak, a mind that is destined to be blind. A misstep that’s
likely to repeat, with eyes that really see. A gift that the spirits
handed me. I see the self hatred seed, the same seed I saw in
me. Now we see, the actions that you made, we out of the fear
of rejection. A cycle of abuse that you went through. Forgive
you, but not for you, for us so we can heal from you. The
damage that you have caused, will be the burden that you live with.

Triumph
22:19
|

Black god, golden maw. Unleash your power, so
we overcome. Hatred in their hearts, violence
in their walk. Black god, rise with furious love.
Give us power, fill our cups. War has come to
our houses, guided by white greed bodies. Rise
up to bring their rule down, rise up to crush
their will down. Rise up to take our freedom.
Rise up their reign ends now. Triumph, deny
them. A failing system, a starving people.
Immigrants, trapped in camps now, a virus
destroying lives now. Rise up to abolish this
system. Rise up to bring those demons down.
Rise out with strength in hearts now. Rise up
revolution in our souls. Triumph, destroy them.
Smash white supremacy, use hate for strength.
Don’t give in again, time has come fight.
You have what it takes, don’t give in, fight. You
don’t think you can win, don’t give up fight. Lift
yourself up from within, don’t give in fight.
Remove your neck from their boot, stand up
fight. Rise up.

(Boon) my spirits(guide) my spirits(move) my spirits protect from
oblivion. (Truth) my parents(tried) my parents(proved) my parents
tried the best they could. (Tomb) inside i(froze) inside i(died) inside
I hated the shape I’ve become. (Cocoon) now I must(heal) now I
must(grown) now I must forgive for damage done. (Move) no
more(hate) no more(lies) no more excuses for giving up. (Abuse)
my body(failed) my body(broke) my body was no strong enough.
(Drugs) wrapped up in(pain) wrapped up in(guilt) wrapped up a
needle inside my arm. (Death) all that i(loved) all that I(tried) all
the lives I left behind. (Choice) now I have(grown) now I have(soul)
now I can see the change I have made. (Form) wisdom it(blooms)
wisdom it(holds) wisdom is what I gained from death. (Love) now I
can(see) now I can(give) now I can heal from giving back.
(Freedom) freedom from(you) freedom from(me) freedom from
the pain and the guilt.
My heart was cold, from the pain that I hold. My soul was black
from demons inside. Fear behind walls, self contained hate. Not
worthy of love, not worthy of fate.
Remove it from me, all the lies that I see. I am no man, I am no he.
It’s the way that I feel, it is so real. Gender is lies, the spirits divides.
Am I a man or am I a soul? Bound to a lie, bound to control. Chest
full of walls, from the damage it caused. I want to love, but the
feeling is dulled. Free me, of this shell that I hold. I want to be
warm, but inside I’m cold. The sun speaks within, through its four
eyes I see. Four dimensions of glee resonates with me. A crown of
flame, sits above the mind. A channeled streamed I am meant to
express.
The seeker in me, would not let me rest. A will to change, to be my
best. The healer in me, allowed me to see. The walls in my chest
was put there by me. No more hiding in fear, salvation is near.
Open my chest, shed a tear. Birth and rebirth, I am rid of this curse.
A fire within, with golden skin. Spirits they nod, my body applauds.
The hate subsides, my seas are calm. A fragile being, tossed to a
hell, beaten and hazed into a callused shell. I had to let go, I was
destroying myself. When the drugs are gone, I still failed myself.
My soul burns bright, a beacon in night. Choose not my scorn, sator
my form. Boundless within malkuth.
The truth lies within balance. One that destroys must plant a seed.
Within me is instinct, guided by the spirits genius. Withholding
nothing. The seer watches. Reality is what we deem so. Energy is
abundant. I haven’t lost anything, that I cannot gain back. I haven’t
forgotten the path that I was destined to walk. I haven’t lost the
respect that I had gained from the pain. The honest truth is the
fact, I would of died long ago. Without the help of the souls behind
each lesson of life. Is a soul guiding light flowing from within.
Flawless feeling from chest, vibration from my gut. Endless love
from abound, granting me freedom to live. Sobriety of the mind,
granting secrets to life. When my mortality fades, I will be greeted
in kind. Fearlessness in my heart, toward the path of death. I will
be greeted by those who hold the jewels in their eyes.
They come for me inside my dream. Demon born with me, so I can
see. They call, they’re calling me. The pain I see is apart of me. The
rest of me is incomplete. Until I learn to see my enemy. The flaws
that were apart of me melt away with the sea.
My soul burns bright, a beacon in night, choose not my scorn, sator
my form.

Love
33:24
|

I call to the power of the thunder being.
I call to the power of the earth.
I call to the power to the north and south.
I call to the power to the east and west.
Love.
Lands of gold, fill our hearts with ease and rest.
Your eyes glow, as they stare into my soul.
Love.
Come, the time has come.
I saw you and me in the circle.
Our tears fall, as we’re surrounded by our people.
I know within my heart this day will come.
Love.
Encircle thee earth with our love.
Woke into a false reality filled with lies.
Crippled by the pain, two weeks I suffered alone.
I knew I had to leave once I saw you again.
My chest ripped open, when I saw you with him.
A dream lost in the fog, again a hate replaced love within.
Separate from this loss, cut the chords of our bonds.
Clarity through solitude the spirits guide me to truth.
I could leave them all behind, but I couldn’t let go of you.
I knew I had to leave once I saw you again.
My chest ripped open once I saw you with him.
A dream lost in the fog again, a hate replaced love within.
Will you miss me when I’m gone?
