There's an itch in my mind
It will not leave
Titus's mosquito
The seeds of an idea
Now bearing savage fruits
A god inside me, locked away
Shunned away
I will free it from the withering touch of normality
Mediocrity
To hatch the egg
Fear not, morning will come
Mother sun will melt our chains
Eden, within our reach
Terra, our motherland
Those who crave, follow forth
And embrace my acidic call
Have no fear, Take control
Grow your teeth
Bite off the hand that blinds
I am no mere puppet, For I am man
A solitary thinking unit
Fed with my own shackles
Cuffing myself to the wall
I dropped my pants and bent
Ready to be assimilated
Re-educated, sent me from this gulag
Were they filled my soul with hate
where I was taught to be a pawn
To take my fall to kill a king
Never taught to question
Never breathe free air
Always keep rolling your rock
The system's needs are ethereal, mine are measurable
I cast away my barriers
Re-ignite my inner flame
I bestow it upon all listeners
Even you can hear my call
And you know it, but you’re not listening
Even though I scream it into your ear
I’m telling you to wake up
And burn away
This freakish dream
WAKE THE FUCK UP
