There is an evident principle, That you choose to ignore, Color blind yet seeing red, You've forgotten what we came here for, They are the chosen veil, of your advantages, Yet you strive to fail, so full of shit! Immaculate in their disguise, As they cover the truth with their lies, As eminent as our coming demise, The truth shall set you free! Veil of morality, Shrouding their true intent, White robes of decency, Like wolves in lanolin! Turning the lie inverse Like wolves in lanolin, A sacrificial lamb To be martyred for god! We must Impose our will, Upon the weakening kind...

Here next to you, A liar and a thief, As you lay down your soul, Come down from that cross, Take judgment for yourself, Now it is done. Divulge the ignorance, the bliss, the rapture Of this tormented existence reaching to your core And smothering your soul, Indulge the deviance of unrequited defiance And bring the knowledge of their sins To counselors of old, We are gone but not forgotten In the silence of years ago In death we are remembered In life forgotten and old We breed our inhuman nature. And i see you contemplating suicide, Suicide Why are you waiting just pull the trigger Just pull the trigger and die! Your whole life has lead you to your suicide, Suicide Why are you waiting just pull the trigger Just pull the trigger and die!

Amongst the rise in superstition Can be found an old tradition Of what you don't know Cannot sink its teeth into you. We live in the age of ignorance, A common disgrace to our kind, Where sense is drowned, Forcefully By the Baptist, Your TV. Lethe be praised For her ignorance is a model to us all! The less we all know The less can we defend, Hear for the first time, Your natural right As a killer by nature, To stand up and fight!

Inscribed in papyrus A thousand fucking years ago A message meant to warn Of our current age Where no man is free And all are enslaved To a god they create This wretched sinners curse To be educated but damned Is the vilest manifesto Enshrined in gold Encased like the holy scriptures Hidden away from your eyes... DNA We’ve come so far Yet the darkness blinds you still Let the light of the truth shine in Lest you limit your evolution Yet chances are As a stillborn rise again So would mankind Accept what really happened No god above to save you now Wretched again are your actions No creator condoning hate Only silence, still Watch now as they suffer Where is your father now Watching the world burn Only silent, still This mysterious Absence in the universe A foretelling of What is to come

Paragraph II 04:36
We hold these truths to be self evident That all man is equal And are endowed with these rights Life, liberty and the pursuit of Being fucking happy Which when a government ignores It is the right of the people To altar or abolish it We don't need you forgiveness We don't need your faith We don't need your belittling hypocrisy Say what you believe is true Preach about your faith We encourage you to remember you bleed the same! (This is our oath!) We will not allow you to oppress us. We will end your infinite war. Money is worthless against the blood in our veins. before your final breath As you cower and beg for mercy You will know our name...
