The atrocities that seeded my most youngest days, A splice of soul & society - A boy maize. Bitter crimes, made even more sour by time, May they sweeten the fruit and not soften the rind. A rear-view of my yesterdays grew a darken vine A truth, darkness yields no harvest This opaqueness is all mine. I've heard no lies, As I sat in this pickled brine. that will make me mourn or cry As I stand tall before the farmers scythe! For as always, I stand alone. And justice demands A payment for the hands, That reaped what they didn't sow --

I've heard no lies, As I sat in this pickled brine. that will make me mourn or cry As I stand tall before the farmers scythe! For as always, I stand alone. And justice demands A payment for the hands, That reaped what they didn't sow --
