Living With A God Complex

by Harvest

Denounce 02:18
Collision with the notion that things could change I feel so fucking worthless This struggle is in vein I need a way out from the eternal senseless Defiance that I find in you Not an ounce of trust courses through your veins I'm holding on with what is left as my life's blood spills into hatred All these eyes are staring me down Stripped of morals, I'll stand my ground Bring it on, for no one will take what I am away again Look beyond, I see the end of despair Those thoughts are dead I remain a survivor in the war against this rival

Maroon 03:52
Indulge in hatred towards your mental opposition Protest your anguish A defiant innocent victim Comply with the standard that defines oppression By the hand of what god do we bury our sorrows in? Born of violence Victimized by the sovereign nation Deliverance Supported by the creed Thus adorned Discernment leads to glory for those who will condemn Absolve Affliction for those who can't defend Flourish in our madness. Choke what Breath is left Unprovoked malicious acts need to be suppressed Worn by the Silence of this blind revolt Time offers conscience, torn by this decree Conviction It crushed my eyes Deliver me from my sanity, from this shell Of abhorrence You won't restrain me The illness torments Confined by my lack of resolution Guilty of one crime which is existing Burn the liar Repent desire Detest emotion, sets the fire I will find some form of Justice to end malevolence and this I vow You won't forget and I won't Forgive. You won't decide my fate You won't rape my freedom For I will have my rights Burn you for your treason You won't forget and I won't Forgive you and you will burn

Lament 03:22
Now I know why some things never change. Just another foot in the door. Just another life of sorrow. Now I could lie and say he meant nothing Persistence broke the silence. I've lost a friend. You had to die and leave The broken hearts that followed behind. I can't erase this face that brings Me pain. I am in denial for in you was the vision of discipline, truth Revealed. I won't let you fall away from my memories. The heart endures Unyielding, the times with you won't fade. Burned by the sting of loss for someone so close. Afraid. Receive forgiveness. There's no one to blame. May you live on. No one believed that you held it inside. Blind is the fury that concealed your cries. May you live on I try to erase this face that brings me pain and leaves me behind this wall But I won't forget that part of you That would catch me when I'd fall. You will survive in my heart. Engraved in my mind. Doubt will persevere from the spirit that I may never find

Covenant 03:55
Forced my will, sanctify, sacrifice myself I forged a chance for a look into my soul Tear out my eyes for everlasting life I won't fall to the ritual As the soul changed, it's healed and released That which you give, that which you seek, ask it and it shall Seek and ye shall learn Release the chokehold The senses yearn, so you will be my savior So you will set me free This moral indoctrination The water deceives You left me broken, hard hearted And yet you still made me suffer for what you deserved No need for attainment The consequence of your actions has left me afraid Fall through the cracks Let me down Let me go free
5.
Hourglass 01:36
The waves that we create never stand still Never break to see what it does until The hurting eyes tell us that we've gone too far And the torment we touch leads us all To say the truth, avoid malaise, honesty arise, embrace the day When we can trust, when we can feel When we decide what's right or wrong No it's not easy, saved by ourselves again Living with not for, promise to try to savor everything The wind quickens, energy adored This vital flame, vitality Consumes the grade Endures the pain No thoughts remain That will strip away what it really means to live for We must go on and try
6.
Flood 04:03
Flowers wilt when they lose the rain And the sun will leave them dead again For how long can we live like this? Is it eternal? Face to face, defy disgrace The fevered death of a nation Consent to bleed, the tyrant leads us to our decimation Here it comes, the final word Can I open my eyes and watch it burn? One day we will be sickened by life as we realize Up against the wall Our bitter freedom A fight for survival A means to an end, forever How long will it take to destroy our lives under the sun? And enforce the limits that will confine us? Beyond broken eyes I thirst for a life without hurt Devoid of fault, without deception Hollow eyes There's no god to save you, save me Onward we march as the day grows dim This pestilence leads to revulsion Cannot taste the blood of the martyr until you face this revolution One day we will forge a path of survival
7.
Ahimsa 03:03
Persecution is not a value I wish to instill Your freedom means nothing when the heart kills Confront this father figure Repent the suffering With indignant eyes hollowed out to see the dead survive Our cries for sympathy bleed in our darkest hour Let the vengeance rain down on me Let this wrath satiate my being Conform to the Christ figure I defy With an act of mercy I cry If I am saved, if I am healed, then why am I not free? Hardened heart brings a cold fist This god complex will never miss Bend to break the structure Bleed to make me believe Subject yourself to violent action, we are what we see Don't turn away and run, you will never see it coming If I am saved, if I am healed, then why am I not free? I have learned to deny what has been forced onto me A course tongue favors ascension Speak the evil truth with which we crave The demon lies with incantation Buried instincts sends us to our grave Raise the dead Lift the veil Complete the cycle of redemption
8.
Virtue 03:41
Dedication to discipline Endurance of self separation Sustain the sense to remain Give of the feeling, control your life Empower Slave, suffer Never will I ignore No more ingestion of submission to this world Dedicate some time to that which brings you to life Empty without substance You're just a slave to the hand that pulls the strings Ignite the will Self acceptance the first discipline Obligation to fulfill your endeavors You control your actions You may free yourself Suffer, slave
9.
Tribunal 03:37
Imaged, etched, defined Calloused words reflect the mind Devotion to a sordid prophet A slave to the age old laws Can't sustain the life Caught up in the web of my pride Turn the other way, you don't want to face this That which buries me alive I won't succumb, I won't neglect For those who fought to protect, I feel mourning I won't succumb, I won't neglect For those who fought to protect, I feel sadness Nullify the vision Behold the aversion The divine repentance before the dawn I have found in this reflection Those that believed that time altering life was a symbol of pride Awaken and arise Imaged, etched, defined Disbelieve tradition Adherence to this honor A faith based execution You are not alone, I am not on my own You remain afraid, you must face this pain Fall from glory into darkness Damned are we Fall from glory
10.
101 04:17
Face the war and honor tradition The sacrificial lamb Murder for the crucified Adherence to his faith Self indulgent bleeding For beauty becomes the slave as the prophets take it all away Deny the game Lose again The soulless figures repent the dead. Revere the faceless Extend the motion Support the absence of The war tears through the fabric that unites the nation with independence Force in our nature The deity's ancient laws give us the right to kill Touch the intent Kiss the ground Overthrown as you taste tomorrow You've taken away the right to justice Annihilation of civilized man Religious sect, procured And doctored to allow for a total holocaust The warrior remains in idol history revered for uncommon valor As the war rages on, upon this land where I grew So sacred and untouched Now scarred by this revelation You die in the name of hopeless abandon You lie forsaking your brother's love You die at the hands of this holy war You die in vain for another's blood
