Lusus Naturae

[Intro]
Gnarled and mangled, warped, deformed
They see nightmares, a mutant swarm
I see beauty underneath
I see promise in nature's freak

[Verse 1]
A mystery of blood and bone
Soulless, origin unknown
Twisted devil, villain lost in time
Mindless, born of bubbling ooze
Intelligence I will infuse
A curse upon the world, but now you're mine
I will raise you up, design the perfect beast
Elevate the savage, use you to bring peace

[Pre-Chorus]
They don't know, they don't understand
There's a goal, it's my master plan
These simple minded fools just see my plans abstruse
I'll give the monster's life a use

[Chorus]
Awaken, my brood
Today you will rise
I've given you life, my lusus naturae
Open your eyes

[Verse 2]
Created in a netherworld
Into this realm, you were hurled
Scientifically misunderstood
I will decode and knowledge gain
Your mysteries, I will explain
I'll lucubrate and change you for the good
The fools they've placed in power try to halt my dreams
They will fail to stop me, Grimm, I will redeem

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm your god, I will make you grow
You're my own twisted embryo
They call me sick, obsessed, a madman with no proof
In triumph, I will show the truth

[Chorus]
Awaken, my brood
Today you will rise
I've given you life, my lusus naturae
Open your eyes

[Bridge]
When evolution fails
Science will prevail
What nature warped, I will restore
I will love what all abhor

[Pre-Chorus]
They call me sick, obsessed, a madman with no proof
I'll give the monster's life a use

[Chorus]
Awaken, my brood
Today you will rise
I've given you life, my lusus naturae
Open your eyes (Open your eyes)

[Chorus]
Awaken, my brood
Today you will rise
I've given you life, my lusus naturae
Open your eyes
