Dead in my eyes,
Find out why
Lust for answers,
Bleed me dry
Lack of color,
You gave me hue.
Felt it in my heart,
something new

DOG NO LONGER

I am dog no longer
Succumb to no leash
Stifle me no further
For I am holy beast
Lay waste to your pasture
Feed on your despair
A short chain
Severed
Released
Transcend any binding grip
…Crush all that resist
I am dog no longer
Succumb to no leash
No god will cause me pain
For I harbor no beliefs
Lay waste to your pasture
feed off your despair
Lit the fire burning
Destruction feeds on air
Savior of myself
Journey on into hell
Burning embers
Cries for help
Nothing left
Only self
Journey on into hell
Nothing left
Only self

NEUROPRISON

Serving a life sentence
for my crime of being alive
Rot forever, live the cycle
It’s a place that I’ll never escape
Break my hands just to pacify
The rapid pain settles me.
Boiled over, sweet release
Down to the second I am trapped in this prison
A racing mind offers no peace
Locked down with chains of anxiety
Racing thoughts are all that haunt me
Stood still in a neuroprison
The world still turns around me
Time flies as I do my time
While the days blend together
I fear that I’m losing my grip
A disconnect that cannot be fixed
Cycle through
the same subjects
the same thought processes
Though closure
is unattainable
I still dwell
Stood still in a neuroprison
My world still burns around me
SENTENCED TO LIFE IN MY MIND
TEAR DOWN THE WALLS OF THE
NEUROPRISON

ADAMANT

Work with what you’re given
Do it for yourself
Reject the opposition
Carved into my skull
No more bending backwards
No more sacrifice
No more losing sleep
Believe no more lies
ADAMANT

LUCID

Someone wake me up
From this crooked dream
As I know it now
Life ain’t what it seems
Lost in this stream
Life or dream
Of consciousness
Release me
Denial
Is venomous
Poisons them
Mindless mob
Played like fools
Deceives thee
Can’t distinguish from reality
How the blatant has slipped
Through effortlessly
With a mindless clown
at the helm of it all
This will be our downfall
Lucid
I’m dreaming
This nightmare has no ending
And while the world turns their back on us
Still nothing changes
Am I dreaming? Is it truly how it seems?
On deaf ears
fall our screams. Fall our screams
A boastful swine.
Narcissistic.
Ego inflation is your only mission.
Rapid regression at the hands of bigots
A lucid nightmare
The life that I’m living
Am I dreaming?
Is this really how it seems?
On deaf ears
fall our screams, fall our screams

“When a cause comes along
and you know in your bones that it is just,
yet refuse to defend it–
at that moment you begin to die.
And I have never seen so many corpses
walking around talking about justice.”
– Mumia Abu-Jamal
