Repentance

The truth prevails

Pushing its way through the tales conjured up by the years

My ears burn with falsehoods that have penetrated my mind

Blinding me and simultaneously destroying my life

Binding me spiritually

Literally creating a dependency on the night

Believing it will keep me

However it kept me from pursuing my own light

Living in the nightfall and sleeping during sunrise

Avoiding its warmth and seeking shade from its influence

Brainwashed by its ugliness

Leaving a stench trailed by the wicked

Or rather the ignorant, but it’s not their fault

They too were fooled by generational fabrication

Ultimately, death becomes the end result

Annihilation at its best

Conform to the norm and you will be blessed

Ignore the footprints tracked in the sand

Blaze your own trail and seek foreign land

Forced by life’s circumstances to put that theory to test

The Truth prevails, conformity fails, and darkness sells

So I sought the Sun for myself

Hoping to replenish the damage suffered by the night’s cold air

Seeking restoration for my generation and my roots

Please nourish the land and bring forth fruit

Submitting to the All Knowing; the more we learn the closer we are

If darkness remains the further apart

We become

Mummified, crawling to survive but just getting by

Not realizing the wrath we’ve subjected ourselves to

Time is of the essence, inching closer to our final gloom

If we would only change our minds and decide to live in the day

Allow the truth to prevail because heaven is at stake

Don’t permit indulgence to overshadow legitimacy

With certainty I proclaim

The seemingly good will come to an end

History will repeat itself, the prophecy begins

The night falls and the Sun rises

Lasting and standing tall will be the righteous.
