Apathy
03:50
|

In the jagged shallows I lie
The waters of abeyance washed over me
Paralyzed by an unfounded fear.
The fear, denial of fulfillment
The thief of hope, joy and growth.
Apathy, the killer of dreams.
The burden of consciousness
A flood upon my mind
Eroding at the frayed strands
Of rational cohesive thought
Drifted farther out in the wretched sea.
The sea of glorious valor or immeasurable loss.
An unfaltering resolve to grind away at my
foundation of hubris and ego.
No destination to reach or journey to tread.
Irresolute cartographer of abyssal despair.
Washed ashore, gnarled and bleached by cosmic indifference.
Prisoner of the elements unseen and observed.
Unearthing the tomb of hopeless slumber.
A choice to be made, and made alone.
Apathy, my killer of dreams.

Will
03:42

The desire of will begets the death of ego
Stripped bare of any sense of self.
To hold steadfast in the face of hardship
Betray not the idols of virtue
Strayed from the paths of life
A trap of many ensnared
Tested by trials of fire and fear
Failure of unknown expectations
A force of will, to move mountains
Buried within layers of fail-safes
Break free of the stranglehold
Of self imposed limitations
A hive mind of mediocrity,
Submerging the bellows below
A frail belief of superiority
Justified by every atrocity.
The way to heal begins within
The will to scale begins with a step
From womb to rot, slogging forward
Lockstep with the colony of fools.

Prevail
04:03
|

Tearing down the walls between hope and fear.
Forgetting all we could learn.
A lesson taught before the fall.
How many times must we fail
Echoes from before a dawn of lies.
Fallen on deaf ears.
Whispers of a future devoid of strife
A hope best abandoned
Against all odds, we will prevail.
Clawed back from the brink again and again
This won't be the last time we try.
Destruction assured by our genetic code.
Endless war, famine and death.
Echoes from before a dawn of lies.
Fallen on deaf ears.
Whispers of a future devoid of strife
A hope best abandoned
Against all odds, we will prevail.
Against all odds, we will prevail.
Against all odds, we will fail.
