Realms of madness, hastened wrath
Vengeful gods construct their warpath
Who will live? Who will last?
For some, the lines between right and wrong
So lost, so blurred they might as well be gone
Crossfire, these atomic pawns
Those gods yet gamble with all our fates
Lost the hand, now it’s all too late
Realms of madness assimilate
Gambling with fate

D.E.S.T.R.O.Y.
05:27
|

|
The erasure of the gods
To heighten unity’s odds
Through the D.E.S.T.R.O.Y. method
A world to be subjected
Impetus for reality
With your thoughts die divinities
Now to pry open possibility
For this world lead astray
Systemic faith lacks integrity
Deicide mends the fray
To be clever is not to be wise
Ways of old; parasitic persistence
See through crystalline eyes
Eons regained from a hindrance
Unlearn the scriptural way
For shackles are your gods
Through the D.E.S.T.R.O.Y. formulae
Raze the path you have trod
In flames’ wake, behold reality
Thoughts beyond life’s topography
Humanity, for far too long
Looked to the myths in quests to belong
Proles accept the hands they’ve been dealt
This deicide deals the greatest wealth
“Ethereal, I will to exist”
Sound prayers not to be dismissed
By the universe, so on myths subsist
Now D.E.S.T.R.O.Y. can dissolve that mist
A synaptic override by credence
Dilution of self control
Dissonance will stifle grievance
Subtlest of strangleholds
Now may dawn’s light stock possibility
For this world lead astray
Systemic faith lacks integrity
Deicide mends the fray
The erasure of the gods
To heighten unity’s odds
Through the D.E.S.T.R.O.Y. method
A world to be subjected
Impetus for reality
With your thoughts die divinities
Blind faith is buried with the past
For nothing human forever lasts
Webs unweave manyfold as fast
Atomize dormancy
False idols will die with the past
For nothing human forever lasts
Webs unweave manyfold as fast
One with our eternity
Blood red skies: just your mind feeding your eyes
Negate misfortune, reality’s contortion
No longer can that myth remain
Falsehood infinite domains
Societal scaffolds built to some’s ideals
Others find lies are the strongest steel
Those webs unweave manyfold as fast
For nothing human forever lasts
Blood red skies: just your mind feeding your eyes
[D]eicide initiate
[E]rase millennia’s lies
[S]anitise, scour, extirpate
[T]ransfuse enlightenment; civilize
[R]eprise order void of inconsequential fear
[O]bliterate shackles on a gridlock of minds
[Y]ield, make way for… the brightest years

[I. OVERTURE]
Conjure tragic severance
A phantom crossed or malevolent?
Lone bequest: vindictive devotion
Enter the spectrum of human emotion
A genesis
Unraveling of schizorealities
Launching retributive motives into
Rationale’s oblivion redux
Antithetical meridian in flux
“To be or not to be?”
An ultimate of relativity
My pursuit of certainty
May feast upon my sanity
Ouroboros feast
In nihilistic mutuality
What shall I unleash
Upon this dance?
I fear reality
The rapt author’s pen, an essence reflective
Mirrors the human condition through narrative
This hand of god’s dreams and nightmares akin
As their vacancy yet gnaws from within
All lexical paths mould destiny
Timelessness in wild emotion
Immortalized through their reverie
With every shedding memory
Enduring lurid our devotion
[II. FRATRICIDE]
Shall lunacy eclipse destiny?
To kill the new decree amidst enmity?
Shall this remedy bring out ecstasy?
Shall a phantom king damnation bring?
Waylaid, crass, and clandestine
I know what vile deeds have befallen
Abhorrent ascension, a parabola
By sin you rise or by virtue fall
But if you can, then fall you will
Cain and Abel, but royalty
I am that hex delivering fate
To taint the meaning of loyalty
Through funerary wedlock disgrace
Foul sin, I am vessel and deliverance
Due fate
Volition to sate
Honor thy father’s memory
As if he never left us
For here he stands before me
Lone specter: night’s conjuring shrewd
Upholding grim conjecture
By his own blood
Slain
Shroud not veracity
To shed a brother’s blood so willingly
Crowned through one tragedy
Covetous fratricide auricularly
Have you no dignity?
Slander commitment incestuously
Thy name is frailty
Thy morals lost, twofold matrimony
A pariah born anew
I know what punishment is due
Waylaid, crass, and clandestine
I know what vile deeds have befallen
[III. RODENTICIDE]
So good to see you once again
Manic facade, a means to an end
One soul to hell saves one heaven
A method to this game of madness
And coupled with a griever’s blackness
May this cloak buy time for me
Mask the scent of a killer to be
Sanguinary plot set in motion
Mastery of human emotion
Two things wicked this way come
Bastille, one ornate yet stark
Thralls to monarchs, knavish fools
Loyal in appearance
Royal adherence rankly abused
Mousetrap solution, medicine potent
Glimpse of conscience to pierce the rodent
Mousetrap solution, medicine potent
Sin and glory of a blood yield’s moment
And thinking makes it so
[IV. CONSCIENCE DOES MAKE COWARDS]
The thousand natural shocks
Must we suffer?
Such is the path we walk
Life grows tougher
Will toil be outweighed?
Best to persist?
Or is the cooler shade
To not exist?
Is to be to suffer?
Time casts strife asunder in
Human emotion’s game
Let the emotions play
In hopes that we may
See what conscience brings
The guilt of a king
Just watch how he cowers
Praying sin be scoured
Faithless worshiping
Won’t negate thy undoing
Let the emotions play
In hopes that we may
See what conscience brings
The guilt of a king
Just watch how he cowers
Praying sin be scoured
Faithless worshiping
Spare your breath
Hark! The raven sings
And churns organs to rupture
Ventricular clutch
Malice aforethought
Martyrs have been basking in the sin
A blade ambivalent
Yet speaking daggers
Apprehensive negligence
With purpose shattered
Crossfire unto Cain
Bloodied mirror
Is loss to be in vain?
Is ultion nearer?
Can faithful be our mother?
Strife casts lives asunder in
Human emotions
Human emotion’s game
[V. ECSTASY]
Death has come spry in me
Coaxed by one’s eulogy
Parabolically descend
Remembrance
Faithlessness
Bitterness
Innocence
Death’s bouquet, one frivolous
Make this bouquet so
My thoughts be bloody
Or be nothing worth
Parabolically descend
Death is due, blind eye sees
Coaxed by two eulogies
[VI. DUELLO]
Poison was the cure
As the goblet fills with gore
Wine of Gods this blood obscures
Let these fluid vices pour
To drown the voices
Of dying, breathing treacheries
Flesh bereft of choices
Through bloodstained lechery
Retribution realized
A melancholic emptiness
Entertaining nothingness
What I am is spawning from
Relics of a time to come
Ciphering philosophy
Swallowing my misery
As it swallows me
In nihilistic mutuality
Curiosity is lost
Never was it worth the cost
Suffering unknowingness
Where either path is meaningless
Dense ephemerality
Wasting my vitality
Feast upon Absurdity
That feasts upon my sanity
How many questions remain unanswered?
Such is the nature of every mortal coil lent
Life as uncertain as death is standard
Parabolic descent to enigmatic end
One and the same, so ends our devotion
To this spectrum of human emotion
[VII. REQUIEM]
Now we die…
My curse is sentience
The tragic severance
The crossed phantom
Was never what it seemed, now we die

Welcome to the fray
Today is the day
Grasp on reality ebbing away
It ebbs into nothing as senses vacate
Lifelong influx of information abates
Upturning the stone, into the unknown
For having existed, you now must atone
Closing of curtains
Brace for the fall
But unbeknown to you, there awaits a curtain call…
Amalgamate with the cortex drive
Digital graveyard, imitation of life
Technology picks up where evolution fell
With the promise you might drink from eternity’s well
Sentience at the mercy of a computer
It’s the price paid to secure any future
“Afterlife” drops the ‘after’
And “life support” becomes just ‘life’
You envy the living, soon you’ll envy the dead
Adrift from nature’s course, you’ve been lead
The conversion is complete, anatomy is superficial
Natural intelligence has been made artificial
Reluctance to embrace the rising tide
Cyber immortals turn to regicide
Traded all meaning and pleasure to sustain their prime
At least you’ve bought yourself some time
“Better than nothing” is what they might say
But you won’t know until you get there, and there you must stay
Deprivation of a vessel, all is shorn but thought
So dwell on how this strife is all for naught
Once envied the living, now you envy the dead
The take of nonexistence outweighed by what’s ahead
The conversion is complete, anatomy is superficial
Natural intelligence has been made artificial
Consciousness upload
Sanity is all that’s left, grey matter to implode
Never is perversion without consequence
Physical cognizance: your life’s expense
Beyond the event horizon lies purgatory
False rebirth, the simulation is mandatory
All perceptions vicarious
To revel in existence was always meant to be precarious
Paralyzing destiny, one guaranteed
What is it that lies beyond the time men can bleed?
We’re contesting order, breaking continuity
To feed the shroud of ambiguity
Farewell to the flesh, for code is this realm
Hands of the living have taken the helm
Once temple for soul, but time took its toll
Now database being
Bereft of control
Judgment oblique
Amorphous and meek
Technology swallows you, tinting the bleak
Brevity spurned, though it shall return
To find that existing is cause for concern
Once envied the living, now you envy the dead
The take of nonexistence outweighed by what’s ahead
The singularity’s alloy of flesh and automation
Natural intelligence bygone through our creation
Death is a return that we mistake for a resolve
Adrift from our negation, time’s dissolve
A conversion to complete, anatomy is superficial
Natural intelligence, one with the artificial

Throes of rejection down Russia’s river
Notion linger, echo that I would not deliver
Ammunition for a quenchless quiver

The Greatest Curse
07:17
|
|||
|
I cast aside all but logic once more
And hope to make sense of this reality
Set one foot in the mind of the mind-whore
Ego death: truth skeleton key
Fathomless depths of lucidity
Inheriting new dimensions
As thought is the mould of perceptivity
In the cosmic sea, tides void of prehension
How can we hope to discern truth with our eyes
When we’re in a visionless universe?
Strain your mind, theorize a “how”
Comprehend our place, now you fathom the greatest curse
The severing of oneself from conceptualized time
Impossible perhaps, just ‘til the knell does chime
Won’t everything be recycled in infinite paradigm?
Or is to know hopeless, infinite wall to climb?
Inconsequential; I’ve long since accepted
Despair passed then came vexation
At uncertainty itself being certain
One of few guarantees like cessation
Yeah, we’ve all heard “life is but a dream”
But one so immersive, it might as well be
For all that exists: merely ideation’s glean
And this consciousness is the anomaly
How can we hope to discern truth with our eyes
When we’re in a visionless universe?
Strain your mind, theorize a “how”
Comprehend our place, now you fathom the greatest curse
Life rusts away with each moment
Temporary cog in our temporal machine
A cruel place for sentience
For the skeleton queen hasn’t bones to pick clean
In our race to comprehend their marrow
Blind to the fact that the bones were always hollow
For there’s a “how” but there’s never been a “why”
Our universe knows not, and so we follow
Our sciences: products of will to bare our eyes
To that which simply is
The statement’s brevity reflects that of our lives’
Verbosity useless
The most lamentable design
Too cognizant of our pitiless master
Who lent me her ear for my deepest questions
But deaf all along, she’s the cruelest of bastards
So immense, our capacity for knowledge
Boundless potential inevitably wasted
To die with curiosity unsatisfied is our pledge
Concludes the dream, we’ve already faced it
Death always has been hard to grasp
For how can we grasp what does not exist?
These psyches have outgrown their singular task
Yet every cosmos of thought shall soon be dismissed
So complex, it can’t comprehend itself
Where this is all emphatically anomalous
Purpose, like pain, always was our illusion
Futility in lungs of a breathing necropolis
Now aligned with reality
Our thoughts dwell in it, but absolutely nothing can they change
And while to us, it’s a damn shame
To our master a beginning is an ending prearranged
Indifferent through a lack of consciousness
And yet, here we are, the sentient and perceptive
Natural intelligence has proved itself unfair
As the greatest curse is the gift of perspective
