In the Beginning

My brother once told me that he held no regrets. That every mistake he made, made him a better man yet. But how much greater could we be if the apples from the trees weren't lining the gums between our rotting teeth.
Just as sure as the sun failure must come.
No regards to the weight of the chains we run.
Out of breath, out of reasons to keep moving on.
If you choose to take me today at least I'll finally be gone. I'll finally be done.

20 years still no fear struck in the heart of man.
30 years full of mochary due to dry land with no rain to bear fruit with every word that he spoke.
Now floating bodies are the proof.
That we aren't always right.
We don't understand life.
That we're all gonna die.
So don't get left behind.
50 years spent diggin, father time's not willin.
warnin after warnin passive aggressively killin everything that we were meant to be. Well you say who needs a god when I've got me?
So what if I'm wrong? heaven and hell never existed all along.
Would I be any worse off than you? the person who believes in no one but himself.
Many are called but few are chosen.

Waste of Life

If I die today would you mourn for my loss or rejoice over my grave?
If I die today would I be buried with the same things that buried me in this place.
At first I thought it was a guilty pleasure but now I'm guilty of redefining your treasure as nothing but filth and just a bag of dirt, but what did I ever do to deserve your worth?
Pleasure isn't worth losing your soul. Pleasure isn't worth never being made whole.
Just another pretty face, just another pair of legs. Justification for thoughts in my head.
I'm assuming that you've never a kid or else you wouldn't be staring at her with the intent to rape every single gift that her father had to give. It was never yours to take.
You're the reason she's afraid of commitment. Why her life spells pain and resentment. Why she'll never be able to accept the ring because it's harder to act than it is to preach. She's undressing while everyone is starting. She's become a ghost by comparing herself to everyone else.
To every single girl in every magazine, to every single daughter on the T.V. screen, to every single beautiful thing, but it's all a lie.
What a waste of life, what a waste of time.

Shut myself off from every single one that I know.
Lay my ears to rest in the gallows.
Die away, on the floor now is a piece of my mind.
If I'm not looking at you then won't you gaulge me blind.
Shut myself off from everyone I know.
I don't need money, I don't need fame. I'll die happy forgetting my name.
Screw your love, screw your pain. It's nothing compared to the giver of grace.
I am so tired of listening to a voice that is defeaning.
It's defeaning. Shut myself off from everyone I know, lay my ears to rest in the gallows. The world speaks to me, I'm not listening to a voice that is defeaning.

Deathwish

Take it I don't want it, just take it I don't need it. I don't wanna be the one to blame. Buried head first in all my shame. Buried in the weight cause I'll be all right. waste away to the other side and I'll be just fine losing control of my life.
I'm already dead.
I've got this deathwish on my head, I've got this deathwish in my heart.
Lord won't you come and kill me before I tear myself apart.
We're Fighting violence with more violence.

Death Sentence
02:56
|

|
My mother laid in a hospital bed gave birth despite what everyone else said
Just kill him! just kill him! just leave him to die
Think about your future, you're too young to throw away your life
No moral compass to find
No difference between right and wrong in your mind
Who cares if it's another's life
As long as you can keep on living in your own selfish paradise
To you I'm just another seed buried far too deep
Underneath the weight of your regret
Mother please help me why is it I can't breath?
I was supposed to grow in your footsteps not buried beneath
Did you not feel my heart beating with your hand on your chest
I screamed for life they banged the gavel and they gave me death
Suffocate under the weight of every word they'll never say
And every truth they'll never speak cause you let the lies creep under your feet
Your body, your choice you used it to take his voice
Your body, your right you used it to take a life
You'll never forget
