Sinøbvious 01:40
When you walk away You don't know what you take Sit and sharpen the blade Lay down in the garden and play I've seen it all come and go But it seems to have The same taste The same lies A different vision The same look in their eye I look directly in the face of faith Shrouded in superstition Slinging shuriken slices skin Clouds rain down Thousand of years tradition God (less) let's be honest Promised sacrilege Magic tricks Beyond this Collective consciousness Interpret what you will Never fully understand Inhaling second-hand smoke Fortunate that we can Fortunate that we can The sequence sixteen secrets Reincarnate spirits Necromancers dance Upon a bed of blades Ancestors whisper escape

The wind drifts Pulls me gently Out my fingertips And swiftly lifts my spirit A slight change of appearance It was something I didn't realize Until I was flying at roughly 10,000 feet above the sea Aware, yet can't see - Sometimes I watch the smoke rise over the horizon Intertwine with the stars alignment To escape through narration Seeking to ink the imagery immaculate Drink the past infatuations Sink into imagination We absorb and reflect Distort to see in-depth Abhor what we reject Collected into the core of our very being Our anger is our affection Inevitable danger heads our direction If we choose not to believe in ourself It proves we can't truly believe in anything else - Easily seduced by the excuses (The truth is written on the walls) If we chose to stop the improvements (All we've built will dissolve) If only you could see eye-to-eye with your mind's entropy But time is fading, fleeting, narrow, vacant - It's what you make It cuts deep and engraves its namesake As a keepsake, as a part of heart ache Take the mistakes Awaken from the illusion we partake in, confusion Break free from temptation, in an attempt at concentration Crept through the connections Introspection to check the intentions Paint the portrayal Of a zero day old fable Based in bloody betrayal Chased the culprit but he bailed Hence what the rest of the story entails Gets morbid as hell Before most forfeit I foretell and bid farewell Did no one inform you of the storm that swarms through? If we chase it we could be there by morning Forging blades, coloring caves Numbering days, growing number with age Uncovering the suffering and wondering how We could change, adapt A momentary lapse of Eden A monument of the consequence Of the lost cause conceivement

Rise 03:20
When all is forsaken Awaiting the vacant Call of the raven Only then will we awaken Strengthen the signal, station They say the end symbolizes reincarnation Take the time to realize our life's disguised By a veil of complacence If only it were all that simple... To break the divide Combine countless sides in the middle With diligent deliverance Significance, it's in the details The instance you become one with the moment - prevail (pre-veil) Through the torment More foresight Wondering what's in store tonight Taken under the wings of the wind Underling struggling within the Contradiction, a running metaphor Don't let the wisdom hide behind the double-door Interested, forget it's a threat to previous investment With devious intention Relentless greed (Self)-Centered around ineffective Elected you'd believe if you pretend a genius said it A hypothetical heretical spectacle Technically integrated integrity Definitely taking over the territory The story format for that - special effect Protect the temple - gentle ~ Devil's perfect the art of vengeance Inside the hearts of those who let them While the sunburned children Unwilling to relieve, naive and stubborn ~ - Are you yet intrigued? Have you found the answers you seek Secrets reveal no truth - "He heard whispers in the wind that no one else could hear but him" I've seen the weight of the world caving in "{subconscious voices}" "He saw her in a dream all dressed in white, it made it seem like she was Somewhere, not there, but somewhere - saying" The current state of our dearly beloved // Blood has flooded Clearly disgusted // They just do as instructed Corrupted easily // Filled with nothing Instill the fear // Replaced hastily Blanketed by fake decency - "The rocking chair sways back in the day air" - "I do not see the things you see - I see no signs in my tea leaves" What do you see? What do you believe? ^Is it all what's meant to be?^ Bleeding, instinct, sinking Deep end, gone Madness What do you see? Is it all what's meant to be? What do you believe? Bleeding, instinct, sinking Deep end, gone Madness

(Open the gateway) Transcending the unimaginable Transcending the unimaginable Come into contact with the abstract truth Extract the active ingredients Discard distractions, disobedience The metaphysical sequence Spiritual evidence I've been restless ever since I've discovered the density of destiny Unseen and obscene elapse to catastrophe Thirteen when the dreams began to help me forsee Infinite affinity, harmonized angels - tranquility Karma's eyes trace movement lucid at every angle Fabled melody introduces the fatal angel Truth sings strangled, heartstrings entangled Laced idiosyncratic straight-jacket stereo static Immaculate fade to blackness Balancing half-way in the shade - inadequate Melting in the sun's rays by one (raised by one) Wondering when will I be dazed (day's) and (end) done Remember vitalities embers survived And we have only begun Transmissions, decisions, premonitions Envisioning the composition Calm, bomb the system Collisions, opinions rippling ambitions A strange change of intuition Spawned the dawn of Conviction Metacognition Achievements Conviction Metacognition Achievements Conviction - another deranged addiction Metacognition - walking the distance Achievements - through perception and persistence Conviction - another deranged addiction Metacognition - walking the distance Achievements - through perception and persistence

Spaceship 01:56
A distant form of lost origin Consuming the oxygen Fueled intoxicants Slaughter incompetence Raise monitors They're so regrettable *illegible ;)* edible They're so incredible: Humans Why must I trust they'll lead themselves to ruin It's moving Infusion as a Lucid Interlude into you Incomprehensible: light-years reverberation Transmission - interpretation Interpretation and inspiration Seeds planet - seven monster Breath panic. Watch them run Like ants - Dance to take that chance Towards advancement, unity To become what you can't foresee These enhancements tuning thee To control the way you see Detest the mess of false ecstasy Default acceptance, sliced sections Condescendence :: Humanity Can it be? Steady calamity Stand to be The study of a familiar sense Sounds, projections, silhouettes Thus captured in a moment Of twisted neuron enrollment Toke it, evoke it Awoke from silence, cursed - unspoken A reign of tyrants - stained mindless Blamed for the same reason The evening sky left you dreaming Dreaming, discerning Seizing and turning - burning Wishing it was evident as the evidence Of all evidence of the developments Observation of mass exodus Telepathic manipulation To burning the messages Disturbing the way they Lust for life Steady clutch on the mic Subconscious thrust Words push thoughts together Change weather - morph perception Earthling infesting all sections, nesting Spreading, wasting life and forgetting.. What's soon to be nothing left A concept too complex to evaluate Devastation and doom we demonstrate Regenerate the knowledge elevates Contaminates, emptier spaces, vacant t o o s p a c i o u s Exploring (the) Places (in search of) Faith (but it's) Tainted (and they're all) Faceless Taken Spaceship

The Escape 02:19
Awakening from this illusion refreshed I found I've second guessed my surroundings Thoughts traveling past light speed - dumbfounded I've seen this in a dream before I even remember the same sounds My mind is clearing Now I'm beginning to Peace - together (Location unknown) Situation inspiration Adjacent to jaded Figuring out my actual placement And the duration I was sedated Flawed, white washed The cause, blacklisted Mischief, twisted physics Conflicting within A double-helix This sudden subtle feeling Arose (a rose) Decompose Disappearing Growth The cycle Spirals out of control The title's the goal A violent yet vital role Radiant of an ancient and primal soul Crushing imagery of the idols And burning the trinity for coal Projecting black holes There's no windows to see Frozen, silent, invisible, void Like living in black holes Floating at zero gravity Alien alchemy Exposed conspiracy All of a sudden a creature appeared in front of me Unleashed the searing sun from the center of my souls ember Temperature inclining - temporarily unwinding chromosomes Reconstructing my genome The spectrum formed an emblem Spiraled and reconnect them Venomous is the smile Vile of the wretched Versatile and perilous Sterile is the reptiles reply Underlying he's just a minion Of the one who makes the decision It all equates through the symptom Mission escape the condition Circumnavigated the love-hatred interrelated Asphyxiated // execute the vanishing act Nailed to the cross // Claustrophobic Which of you are the chosen? Restraints broken Confined to freedom I am the source Metamorphosis Forced through a portal Reaching a core a door (corridor) opened Unveiling a voice which echoed throughout What seemed the entire galaxy You can spend your whole life running - for nothing (There's no escape from yourself) You could spend your whole life searching - it's worthless (There's no escape from yourself) You could spend your whole life trying - dying - forever defiant (There's no escape from your self)

The World's collective conscience caves in At a single moment - separate components Emotions vary in potency Until we experience all frequencies Experimenting with entropy Expanding energy No, understanding ain't everything - unsettling Security breach the faculties of your being Seeking reason throughout the evening Sinking further from believing Blur the allure for if you prefer to be cured I concur And conquer - ponder the purity Wander the worth of free Animosity animated duality Of animals and the intangible Fantasy, curiosity Only shifts in gravity could disturb the velocity Of the reoccurring prophecy Predict the conflict Situation confrontational Crushing the Earth to 8 bits Eclipsed in the shadows of the Spaceship Transfixed by a hollow tomorrow Which doesn't exist Zero sorrow Finding myself slipping into The sound of silence A feeling that's timeless Realizing myself wishing I knew The way around my mind It's healing that blindness - Hell bent on reinventing the present We can prevent the events never cemented Pressure collected, released The oppressors content with the measure And the spread of the disease Settling for lesser will be the end of me Bending dreams Follow the stream Swallowing screams Apollo in Thebes Fatigued yet I proceed To rock a halo in Hell bent on reinventing the present We can prevent the events never cemented Pressure collected, released - Forever Eternity - perfectly absurdity Searching for harmony - internally Learning the artistreconsctructing philsopohy With hopes to fill the empty-nest(led) the smoke within the chest A vessel for various angels and devils Our whole existence is special The soul mysterious Focus, you'll soon take notice The black holes pull and consume Resume the drum rhythm In tune with the blooming transmissions Ammunition striking the media with meteors They're needy whores Unforgiven the sunlight Igniting graffiti wars The same love at a different cause It's not your name It's the changes you've made And what you've lost Through many phases I've witnessed the gain Put no restraints on my patience No complaints - sustain the natural beauty Sometimes it's actually spooky Therein lies the collateral Circumstances seem irrational? Remain practical, adaptable - Hell bent on reinventing the present We can prevent the events never cemented Pressure collected, released The oppressors content with the measure And the spread of the disease Settling for lesser will be the end of me Bending dreams Follow the stream Swallowing screams Apollo in Thebes Fatigued yet I proceed To rock a halo in Hell bent on reinventing the present We can prevent the events never cemented Pressure collected, released Forever

Innocence In a sense It's the ignorance We're limitless With too much potential To live like this Don't give them an inch You can have my seat I wasn't that comfortable anyway Refused, eclipsed by the light of truth A prototype of the movement Meant more to me than... Dancing devious throughout the night We'll warp the path of destiny And in this fight now to break free Flashback how we became Creatures of light Creatures of light Creature of light Creatures of light - Stitched up Pretty puppet Pull those strings up Don't get it mixed up What you want you've got to give up Stitched up Pretty puppet Pull those strings up Don't get it mixed up What you want you've got to give Stitched

The effects are random Unknown phantoms Plant the probability Resurrected relativity Define your own destiny Directed me toward you Entered the current Covered in colors Aura leaking As I breath in Pandora Subtly speaking Without a word Yet your sure It was heard Blurred by the obscurity A moment melting away Eternity The effects are random Unknown phantoms Plant the probability Resurrected relativity Make up your own meaning Wake up a drone Dreams are fleeting Foreseen is a glimpse Rinsed soon after consciousness hits Before the end of the bottomless pit I could have swore I watched the wonder soar Roaring thunder poured restored a number Null and void out by that hunter The effects are random Unknown phantoms Plant the probability Resurrected relativity Evolve your own equation Then zone and solve with patience The tones stationed in the bones shape-shift Lifted from landscape - drifting Headphone spaceship Cyclone - psyche stoned Psychedelic sights of velvet Vicious, lick the blade Superstitious The effects are random Unknown phantoms Plant the probability Resurrected relativity Address your own death Caressed by the blessed balance Slow, remove the blindfold The proof was valid Look back to youth Shook - spellbound Hellhounds circling the mortal realm in the cerebellum Walking skeleton, dwelling in the catacombs Here to welcome you home Smudge the paintings Curmudgeons of Mayhem We possess the means to progress the sanctum Therefore all odds are irrelevant The effects are random Unknown phantoms Plant the probability Resurrected relativity Pursue your own...
