Devoted to the end
The same since it began
Just examine my heart
Proceed straight through my soul
You know what's inside
You know what's pure
You know my mind for sure
Reside
Inside
You're glorified
Just examine my heart
Proceed straight through my soul
You know what's inside
You know what's pure
You know my mind for sure
Pure

When we first made this alliance
We swore it would never end
No matter the cost
No matter the hurt
No matter the trials
We carry on
We persevere
Carry on
Anytime
I let the world fragment my mind
You're the glue
You're the screws
That make me realign
Everytime
That you ever feel less than fine
I take your heart
Pick up the parts
And then I hold you in mine
We'll never fade away
We'll always be as one
Our passion
Burns brighter than fire
An eternal pyre
We are one
ONE
No matter what we go through
We'll always be as one to the end
To the end
We'll always be as one

How quick I forget
That all these problems
Are just merely illusions
Remind me of what this life's about
Forgiving and sharing love
I possess the strength
To be the man that you taught me to be
An apple that's proud to stay near the tree
Hard work perseverance faith
Kindness family honest integrity
You're in eternal peace
You don't want me to drown in grief
You're still with me

Self-deception
What is this reflection?
Is my disposition
Deceiving me out of truth?
Open my third eye
NOW
I refuse to live a lie
Conceived by selfish pride
We must step back and analyze
Our own bias
Are they serving us well?
Or are we stuck in a perpetual hell
That we don’t even recognize
Until it’s too late
Short-sighted vision
Seals a lackluster fate
We’re so much more
Than a shallow mindset
That focuses on vanity
A hollow concept defies reality
What is this reflection?
Is my disposition
Deceiving me out of truth?
Open my third eye
NOW
Purify
Cast me inside
The refiner’s fire
Take me ever higher
Make You my only desire

Gone, cold, and broken
Your body stays unspoken
Feels like I'm crushed
Under a thousand leagues
The darkest reality
I can't stop crying
I'll always remember
How you would make me better
You always made me a priority
The love pouring through your eyes
Melted away my defiant disguise
Preventing my suffering
Your life
For me
My dear father
Oh, how I faltered
It was your touch
That rescued me

Let go
Instant gratification
Can be the future’s eradication
People with no patience
Killing each other for fool’s gold
Over self-absorption
In the fleeting lures of this world
Become a man
Put away childish things
Sirens sing their songs
They end with death
Sirens sing their songs
They end with death
The glitz, the glam, the shine
Rust, rot, corrode with time
Self-destructive design
So cast the charms into the sea
Cause they mean nothing to me

There, ebbing among the waves
Your soul saved from the grave
There, where gold is paved
The stream of spirits flows endlessly
Within the heart of our Lord
For we are Love
The end of this world
Is not the end of life

The world's obstructions
Break through them all
Tap your potential
Unleash your gift
Harness your power
Breakthrough

A sense of helplessness
Permeates through the misused
But it’s not too late
You hold the power
To manipulate your fate
The day you stop learning
Is the day that you die
Then all you need to know
Is the love beyond the sky
Believing that you’re too far gone
Feels like you’ve been trapped
In this hell for an aeon
Reinvigorate
I know you can change your ways
I promise this is true
For I was once like you
Break free of these mental constraints
They devour hope
They make you what you ain’t
Create escape
End this aeon
Begin a new dawn

As I breathe through this stark reality
I catch myself smiling and feel so guilty
I retreat
Deep inside my head
I hear your voice
Screaming in a whisper to me
"Take solace
Accept serenity
Know that I am
With your spirit now
I'm with your spirit now
I’m with your spirit"
I never even fathomed
That I could get so sad
But you were even younger
The day you lost your dad
When I was a child
I couldn't understand
The hurt that you detained
But now I feel the pain
I feel the pain
It gets so overwhelming
All of my emotions crumbling
I can't see through all the crying
Every time
I look at pictures
Every time
That I remember
I retreat
Deep inside my head
I hear your voice
Speak in loving whispers to...
"Take solace
Accept serenity
Know that I am
With your spirit now
I'm with your spirit now
I’m with your spirit"
Nothing can change
What's already been done
You always made me feel proud
I'll always be your son
Thank you for the memories
I thank you for your love
It's because of you
That I'll always rise above
Everyday I hear your voice
There's only one real choice
I'll accept this serenity

Looking back on my life
What does it consist of?
Is it full of good deeds
Or acts that I am too ashamed of
To even acknowledge
Mistakes
That I’ve flipped into knowledge
I thank God for my life
I thank God for my sound mind
Total free will
I thank God for my life
I thank God for my time
All the time…
Our legacy
What will it be?
Dark
Light
Decide
Dark
Light
Decide
Rape and kill
Or
Help and heal
We hold the power inside
The choice is real
I’ll stand for what’s right!
We’ve only got one life on this Earth
We’ve got to make it count
From birth to the hearse
Dark
Light
Decide
Decide
Darkness won’t be my legacy
I’ll keep shining brighter
For the whole world to see
Aiming for divinity
I’ll fulfill my destiny

Take
A good look into the mirror
In this phase of life
Look into the mirror
Is this who you thought you'd be?
Is this who you want to be?
Well?
Are you?
It's not too late
To enhance yourself
To better your fate
It's never too late
It's never too late
