lyrics

Behold my power
The pen is rendered mightier than the sword
My words will become soldiers
To battle the laws of convention and end all misconception
For I refuse to conform to a world that has always hated me,
I refuse to be unheard and I refuse to remain asleep

Can't you see,
The world is pure in simplicity,
But we have created complications,
That only multiply through each generation,
Mindlessly stirring the pot,
In creating order we have created chaos,
Masterful in ignorance,
We deserve to plummet into the abyss

Foolish men
Forging their own master plan,
Conceiving the end of our species for momentary gain in the absence of reason,

Bound by chains we have created,
Lost inside our own minds,
We will come to discover,
A fate so unforgiving we will plummet into the black abyss

We will plummet,
Into the black abyss

Oh, these pitiful creatures,
The grain shant be broken as long as the ignorant word is spoken,
The pen is rendered mightier than the sword

And as it was foretold,
Oh these pitiful creatures,
As long as ego enslaves the population lies you'll be sold

Oh these pitiful creatures,
So bathed in bewilderment of the wonders at their disposal,
Fail to hear of my proposal,
That we tear down the constructs that act as bars keeping us imprisoned in perpetual wars
For isn't freedom worth fighting for

Caught in the midst of perpetual war
A society so broken and torn

Disguising the wrath of power hungry warlords
As patriotic endevours
Kneel before the self proclaimed prophets
Kneel before the sword

The rambling Messiah
Paints truth as the pariah
The messenger the liar
They lead you to the fire

Mesmerized by fear,
The masses to blind to see,
The fool too deaf to hear,
What is so plain and clear,
This lie of a life,
Passed down through generations it has become a knife,
The endless strife,

Ghostly apparitions haunt your vision forcing you into submission,
Your merciless derision lacks precision and stems from your disposition,
The coalition falsifies and denies your inquisition,
Shamelessly and namelessly you blamelessly accept defeat
Cower at your dictators feet
Cower
At your dictators feet
Behold my power
Your world's grown sour
Asleep you remain as you abhor
All progress and consequence you ignore
The deaf shall hear my every word,
The pen is rendered mightier than the sword

The rambling Messiah
Paints truth as the pariah
The messenger the liar
They lead you to the fire

Mesmerized by fear,
The masses to blind to see,
The fool too deaf to hear,
What is so plain and clear,
This lie of a life,
Passed down through generations it has become a knife,
The endless strife,

And so as the prophets have written
These mindless slaves so comfortable
In this hell so unbearable

Caught in the midst of perpetual war,
A society so broken and torn

Is this the life you desire
Or has our collective unintelligence lead us into fire
