[Verse 1 - Deca]
In the false light of blind progress, the future looks bright
Take a second let your eyes readjust
Years fly by like days, feel the rush
We consume the Earth while the Earth consumes us
Quick, fill the void, fill the void, build, destroy
It started with the word kill the noise
I'm tryna find a cure for the darkness I've observed
Where a spark of life emerged from an archetypal urge
And harmonising birds sang the praisе of a new day
You gotta break a few еggs to make a soufflé
The few that knew the way through the maze aimed to loosen the chains
And lay the groundwork for a future age
See the soothsayer fugazi as a toupée sippin' Kool-aid made by the prison guards
See the dreamer on a fool's crusade in a strange land tryna bend back prison bars
The vision rose when the well was full, driven to excel and grow
Freed from a cell that was self-imposed
Placed a seed in a velvet rose, waited nine months
And watched a brainchild emerge from its hellish woes
I got a palace that my Muse holds down
That's fit for a king with a fool's gold crown
Nestled in the shadow of a basilisk with seven heads
Where mass confusion's on the rise like leavened bread
From this vantage
I can see a man in need
On his hands and knees
Pleading with a tyrant that he can't appease
A serpents coiled 'round the roots of our family tree
And birds of paradise are perched on the canopy
Grant us amnesty, to seed the dry Earth
And turn a wasteland into the Eden where we thrived first
All the signs say the end days are coming
Tears flood the valley peeling back the layers of this onion
[Interlude - Sample]
Midnight (yeah)
Means the destruction (yeah)
Of the social order (yeah)
The darkest hour
Separating today from
Tomorrow
[Verse 2 - Deca]
Separating light rays from the hemlock and deadly nightshade
Find your way home before the light fades
Through life's maze, like caged mice
With men that fell from grace and great heights
That ate the faithful apple at a ripe age
A sight to behold, a construct to follow blind
While vultures circle us with eyes like Dollar signs
Seek solace, find hearts that pump liquid collagen primed to scrawl away their souls on the dotted line
I need release from the chaos, the payoffs, the back-room deals, the global chessboard, the stray shots
That tear through flesh when empires face-off
And despots reduce men to biometric stage props
A smile that could heal the sickness of the world
Lights the living room like forgotten visions of a girl
Dancing in the rain, telling me the story of creation
Alpha to Omega, Genesis to Revelation
[Outro - Sample]
Something
Just opens
Something just opens
There is a kind of flash
The air around you is liquid
And you can feel the liquid
And you can feel the liquid
Being pulled into your lungs
Being pulled into your lungs
And everyone in the world heard their name
And everyone in the world heard their name
Heard their name
