Identify inhale respect the onyx fumes
Black smoke composed dreams of doom
Fertile and beautiful, we must extinguish evil
Acquire and activate the burden generational
Broadstrokes of justice informed by faith
Cutting through the air of deceit by the snake
But remember blind love will dull your senses
Filling you with chaos, so just remember this
Conquer with compassion, sharpen with joy
Blades of honor are no working man's toy
Respect must be given, if we shall receive
Rest the deceive, and finally learn to believe
Bear witness without judgement, you shall find the truth
It's harder as an adult, better to start as a youth
Find words to describe and define your condition
Instead of aimlessly comparing your situation
Take in the darkness for those who cannot
Disciples find their place, to close, intimate
True warrior immortal, distrust everything
You must learn to build the connection within
Flanked and alone, situational stark reminder
Recollections of the past, different but similar
Don't hold to close on to the familiar
The more that you love, it'll blind you quicker
Mortal human form, fragile shaken shell
We're all only two steps away from hell
If you see your fellow men as friends and brothers
You'll be held back by the safety of others
Casting of the fates, the throwing of the die
Intimacy can be weakness, for to love is to cry
Those you love can perish far too easily
The path of righteousness can't be taken lightly
I won't take none of that shit my friend
I'll defend myself to the very end
Some people say I'm a bit too blunt
But I'd rather tell the truth, then act like a cunt
Do not succumb, we're made of darkness and light
Intermingling forces inbetween that fight
Override your instincts, don't try in vain
You're letting it control you, emotions and pain
Meditation, the battle between wit and will
Find yourself within nothing, endless primeval
Within the assembly of israel is thirteen petals
Deep within courses forces elemental
Freed from your constraints of mortality
Soar like a god you were meant to be
Greater than flesh, stronger than bone
Born to walk this earth vigilant and alone
What did you think our purpose was here
Just to come and then disappear?
No, there's more than that, so much more than that
You just gotta know where you gotta look at
