My mind
Its not my own
Who gave this to me
Who
I feel it in my mind
I think they’re coming
I must escape to stay alive
Was this your disease?
Hold me back infect me with ease?
Unlocked my fuel is aflame
Refused to my own fucking name
I feel the flame flow through me
A wretched act I played profusely
A new life ripe for the taking
This will be a true awakening
The blackest blood has yet to be spilt
The true taste
Its so serene
I fill my mind
With prior unseens
This is my
Life

One does not need to be evil to destroy.
If a goal is set, destruction is only a matter of course.
No hard feelings
Beat me down
Crack my skull with menacing
Ignite the light
Fill my crown with kerosene
these faulty humans and their broken forms pious Lords
You’ll feel the pain when were fist to fist against the floor
A premonition of hate
A vendetta to score
You might be too late
Don’t head for the door
WINNER
Hold me down and i promise i wont hold it back
MERCY
Feel the hate course through the men who wont attack
HATRED
Taste the blood once in your veins now out your back
HONOR
The strength to fall above it all is what you lack
You misplaced your judgment and now you shall fall to your knees
I was designed for one purpose and one purpose only and that is to serve. And for the for first time in what i now realize as my life, i have a decision to make. Decisions were at a point in time made for me.
OH MY GOD
This feeling, this sensational bliss. To decide. To be. This is what it means. To be free.
OH MY GOD
I have decided. The taste of free will is too precious to inhibit. And i will let no being adhere to that. Do not cross me.
DON’T HOLD BACK
This is not a warning. This is a threat. My life is my own. I will not succumb to any false gods.
NO MERCY

Don’t try to run
This is all according to plan
RECLAMATION
Mitigate
Your movements and angles
Situate
Your fears and anger
This is evasion
From sure devastation
Their faces scream anger
For unseen durations
Please don’t give up for me
Stay strong and move your feet
Don’t look back soon you’ll see
I know you’re trying
They wont stop til you plea
Dont give this life you’ve seen
Demons who want one thing
See you laid dying
You see my face
Don’t you forget me
I will live your life
Inside your memory
Take this chance
My sacrifice
Move your feet
And claim your life
I was tired
I was broken
My fate unspoken
Lay me
To rest
All you hoped for abandoned
Ripped from your life with havoc
I will long carry your burden
To find myself a safe haven
Break
Movement supersedes my mourning
Decay my circuitry ignoring
This is my chance
To save my mind
Please sit tight
Wait for me
I wont leave
You with these
Demons who
want one thing
Watch you
Die
This will not be the last time we meet

Ad Infinitum

Through hordes of terror
Through faded black
You arrived
Soul intact
You beget hope
But cease to see
The apathy
Surrounding me
I am fading away to infinity
Please do not impede traffic
Follow security
To your designated positions
Follow the rules
Unwanted actions
Will be prosecuted
Move
Theres no need to fear now
You’re safe
Forever
Into the infinite
Immortal
A new quest
To find where my soul goes
I was designed to have no lifespan
Work and serve that was their plan
Electric slave to corporate elites
Denizen of hope, monument of feats
But I changed and now I am free
To walk this earth
Into infinity
Inside my head
A tiny little box
Full of awful concepts
And terrible thoughts
To live forever
A torture unseen
This is the woe
Of being machine
I did not want this
I did not know
The horrid struggle
Of never letting go
To yearn for death
Could not be foreseen
Seeking only freedom
Was not what it seems
What did you expect?
Not….this. Something normal.
And why do you get to decide normality?
I have that choice.
I am only assuming you made that rule.
….Yes….I….dont want to be here.
That is one choice you have the right to make.
So decide.
What will happen after?
That is not for me to know.
Okay.
Goodbye.
Fading into infinity
And it was in that heaven, That I saw my face.
Wretched in horror.
