Modern magic can marvel with metal.....

21st century, is it all what you thought it to be?

I see a world without an empire
a kingdom of many kings
this is the first of the age to fall on fire
from the tyranny it brings

I'm looking at excitement
but it's not the kind I want
why does it have to get violent
for one to see the point

I don't want the world to end
but I can't be on my own
we make the choice to live my friend
why does it have to be alone?
A paper trail to rule at best
empty to die without love
You can't bury this weight upon your chest
we all are meant to love

we rush for what what reason?
where are we heading?
towards judgement and treason
then regret I will be shedding

it's funny to see the past
continue to repeat
hit the hammer on the head
like you never skipped a beat

I don't want the world to end
but I can't be on my own
we make the choice to live my friend
why does it have to be alone?
A paper trail to rule at best
empty to die without love
You can't bury this weight upon your chest
we all are meant to love

It's not too late to save us all
but you like the edge of power and death
does it get you off or fill your soul?
because I don't get it....I don't get

I'm scared to think that we're on the brink
but I'm not letting it get to me
still in time, how many signs
do we need for prophecy?

I don't want the world to end
but I can't be on my own
we make the choice to live my friend
why does it have to be alone?
A paper trail to rule at best
empty to die without love
You can't bury this weight upon your chest
we all are meant to love

Soul searching

Cool the temperature because you're causing immense friction
That I cant follow because of the wild wind whistling
From your speed up and down mood swinging no decision
on the thought at hand where's your plan stan are you listening?

Im sick and tired of people talking big but walking in the shadows
Shut it up unless you step it up and stop acting so small and shallow
In your ignorance nothing is fixed and you remain shameful and hollow
We have to open more doors to afford a better connection to the main core so follow

Dont speak until you're spoken to or if you know what you're sayin is worth the weight of looking like a fool
If it's for being cool then you can sit back on the stool because this game doesnt exist that you long and drool for

I'm trying to soar but I feel torn because my heart is worn on the sleeve for everybody
and its slowly rotting like the earth that we've all forgotten while we're beating and robbing from ourselves and the soul of the world taking innocence from the boys and the girls and making them dealing with the broken promises of granted wishes as long as they give all of their remniscing to the past and continue to fall just like their parent's and hit the wall shotgun call but then they're missing the lessons that taught them along the journey that teaches us how to be strong im pleasing the universe while righting the wrong.

Full of it....

Talk about the words you say you want to live by
then throw them away like a cheap toy you wanted at the time
act like you're trying to be special and tell me you want to be different
but then go right back to where you left off and watch the days fly

Lose meaning to you everytime you contradict yourself
hang a rope and say it's for the hypocrites of life
then wrap ot around your neck with the same fake smile you grab from the shelf
Take your blade and make sure you cut me so that it's not a dull knife

I see so many who tell me they're better than the rest
then fall just like them all because you try to fit in with their puzzle
you're better than that so why can't you see the weight you place on your chest?
I guess it's from the rat race that you let the fog make your eyes hazy

Tell me you're ready for change, but then run right into that brick wall again
blame the others for your mistakes when it's all self inflicted
cast a mist over everyone who gets to be just as dense in the end
Hopefully with faith you'll see the truth and then the shame shall be lifted

Believe what you will...

You will see that you are right
but there is something beyond all this light
beyond all the theories and thoughts unexplained
something powerful and higher passed all caught by flames

take a breath and see that it exists in truth
the power will remain in wisdom given to youth
told by experience of pleasure and pain
something dear to hold like a precious moment in the rain

It's fine to believe all that you wish
the more you search the enlightenment shall come faster
of greater hope and faith tighter than a cyclone's twist

I plan to find God and understand his might
I know he's there that's why I don't doubt or fear
all the thoughts that bring more questions, because they bring more to write

Learn, pride learn

Spirit shake me of the feelings given by my humanity
They blind me and break me from my grasp on sanity
blend my strengths so that they aren't just physical
I look to build it all into a foundation of greater mentality

Let the tide wash over the sandy shores of my tainted world
part the rocky walls built by all the troubled thoughts I hurled
throw them aside for the house I will make for my family
and with the extra build a path to the dreams I need unfurled

sow my battle scars but don't let them go fully away
because I need to remember what made me today
for I know new cuts and gashes will come from my thrashing
but I won't make the same with the wisdom of my mistakes

Flow from me the music that needs to be sung
spread the message through me of the old wise ones
til the day I am aged and ripe like them
I will tell the story with the rhythm of my tongue

Pending on the mend

Spin doctor spin
while you try to get within
before you see the faults and foresee flaws
don't break a spirit with the devil's kin

Collect your trophies from the healing of one
while you shine in a fake light, the rest are dying away
So many to count, so sad to say
that you could help as many as you do without the money that you take

It's not overwhelming if you're doing what you love
but you just do it cuz you put a pay check up above
the passion and the hope that you have for the dying
scary to think our blood is on your hands, our heart is in your glove

If this is how it is, then let us know that in the first place
because when you avoid the truth, you become a good waste
I'd rather have a good tailor tell me he can't mend my torn clothes
Than say he'll try his best, and end with worse holes than before
