Self Fulfilling Prophecy

I see this world so clearly behind my mask

And everyone's guilty of striving for sovereignty,

Striving for victory over the rest

I won't play adversary anymore

I won't bare witness to coercion,

But I'll bear persistent arms

I'm scouring through these lessons burned into my mind

And closure is out of reach

What was the motive behind the end of time?

The end of reason

The act of treason

You've all eroded the fibers of morality

You bear no mind

For the existential ones you left behind

I see this world so clearly behind my mask

And everyone's guilty of striving for sovereignty

Striving for victory over the rest

I won't play adversary anymore

If what you had preached

Was what you believed,

I wouldn't live amongst this mass of debris

The places I've seen, the memories I keep

Claimed by your self-fulfilling prophecy

You've awaken a side of me

That will never succumb to sleep

I've built an immunity

YOU WON'T INFECT ME!

I see this world so clearly behind my mask

And everyone's guilty of striving for sovereignty

Striving for victory over the rest

I won't play adversary anymore
