Born of a lie.
Wicked. Advanced. Unjustified.

Apocalyptic bliss,
Just put an end to all of this,
Fake news & information bias,
It’s like sentience backfired.
We are the mindless vagabonds,
We’re drifting on & on,
Through this infested shit storm left to us,
An entire generation fucked.

Open up the sky, open up the sky.
Open up the sky, open up the sky.
I won’t walk into that light, there is no afterlife.
I’ll pray to the true holy trinity of nature, humans & the mind.

I bought into a lie,
Spoon fed, cradled, happy child.
“Everything will be alright.”
Blanketed and supervised.

It never ends, This existential dread.
A lonely, sinking feeling running through my head again.
& It feels so helpless,
Scared & selfish, I’m just trying to feel safe.
But nobody’s ever listening to me when I pray.

Born of a lie.
Wicked. Advanced. Unjustified.

I was born into the middle of a lie
An inconsistent, contradicting germicide,

With millions lost to it, a blood sucking parasite.
God fearing & petrified,
Trapped until the day they die.
We will overcome our enemies.
& We, we don’t need faith or healing.

Upload me directly into,
The perfect eternal tomb.
Even better than the original,
Our heaven will be digital.

The walls are made of glass.
They won’t always remain intact.
A safe haven for the disowned,
Will be broken, By hell fire & brimstone.

Born of a lie.
Wicked. Advanced. Unjustified.
Paradise capitalized.Perfectly weaponized. Burn it all.
For the worst is yet to come.
Be gone foul fiend, be gone.

It never ends, This existential dread.
A lonely, sinking feeling running through my head again.
& It feels so helpless, Scared & selfish,
I’m just trying to feel safe.
But nobody’s ever listening to me when I pray.

Apocalyptic bliss,
Just put an end to all of this. It’s an apocryphal hit,
& Every single part of it is, Born of a lie.
Wicked. Advanced. Unjustified. Mutated.
Perfectly weaponized.
