Absolute Power

Ah yes, it does appear to be so

I've finally met my match

For the ideals of my soul

Have verily been surpassed

For what I pray upon the hearts of men

You would take by force

Instead of accepting our flaws

Or allowing nature to take its course

You empower your emotions

To whom there can be no appeal

But is it the spirit of brotherhood

Or revenge from which you steal?
