Egocosm

Someday you'll see
Dark groves ahead where paths end amongst the trees
An ending to time
Still far away shows eternity dies
Some say there's magic
Some say there's God
Some say the warmth in your eyes
Only resides as a means to survive
The world changed for good

All for man's need just to prove that he could
Some say it's magic
Some say it's god
Some say a kin's brotherhood
Is born from necessities
Truth hides deep
Inside the mind
Far out of reach

Some say thеy see that your drive
Is jealous desirе
(So you chose the harsh path
That you think is real.)
Some say to do onto those so they'll give to you
(Like it's not just what peaks to you)
Some say an ego's required to truly inspire

Everything changes
And time marches on
The crown that you're chasing
Unreal as your thoughts
A need for attention
That you'll never stop

Come hand me my crown
I offer perspective
Of such superior know-how
Sincerities I've honored well

We tell stories that support our own
Victories and that which makes us
More important
Jealousy, spotlight's glow and carnal needs
Built the pyramids and saved us from disease

Someday you'll see your path
Ends amongst the trees
But today take it all
Become king

Monarch of the world
It circles my head
Like i am the star of its system
Its noble knight of knowledge
So hand me my crown
I offer the lessons of such God-important know-how
Created for admiration

When you find truth hides deep inside your mind
Just within reach
You'll be surprised
And the light across the line
Is the moon's own reflection
No eternal soul
Truth stares back
Death deletes complex love of self

Crown that you're chasing
Unreal as your thoughts

Truth hides deep inside the mind
Far out of reach
Someday you'll see

Jealousy, spotlight's glow and carnal needs
Built the pyramids and saved us from disease
Some say to do onto those so they'll give to you
(A Narcissist's path...)
Some say an ego's required to truly inspire
(...Disguised as humble brags)
Some say there's magic
Some say there's God
Some say the warmth of a kind heart
Knows its dependency

Fly on
Craft to achieve
Until the light runs out
And casts all to cease to be
Hoarded all for Nihility
