The right is not mine
But I cannot help but find
That we are drowning
Around all of these selfish, empty, and ignorant minds
Quick to start judging
Speaking only to condemn
With the proposter that stands in the wake of history's pen
They write what they see, only to be in the hearts of them
But my open eyes see nothing
Not as they do
And I am glad not to be one of them
I am arrogant
But only towards the ignorant
Those who claim falsely, to be Heaven-sent
Are blinded demons, all Hell-bent
With black rocks, instead of eyes
Blinding them in their demise
With hollow holes, instead of ears
Which whisper the false truths of their deepest fears
Don't get my anger wrong
For my fuse is long
This did not come up all at once
My anger boils before spewing, building up for months
But for too long it has brewing
And soon it will be consuming
Those who speak the lies and wish them true
Hide your thoughts now, if I describe you...
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT THE LIAR'S TIME
HAS LONG RUN OUT, AND JUDGMENT IS NIGH?
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT'S HUMANITY THAT YOU DEFY
YOUR LUCKY STREAK HAS FOUND A DEAD END, HERE TONIGHT
SO PRAY NOW, AND DO SO TO ANY GOD YOU LIKE
AND IF HE TAKES YOUR SIDE, THEN HE'LL FALL TOO IN THIS FIGHT
Don't you know, oh don't you see?
You and I have no quarrel
Your lifeline isn't borrowed
If you side with humanity
You are free to disagree
With the whole world, or just with me
But be gracious in your personal plea
Lest you swim with fishes in the sea
May I grant one word of advice?
Something to hold dear
On this most auspicious, of nights...
...The man who whispers holds the real power
And the man who shouts wishes that it was his
The child who questions grows stronger by the hour
And the one who believes all barely exists
Only the wicked may dance, to arrogance
And only the good clench a fist, at ignorance
FACTS can be toyed with
FICTIONS can be true
REALITY is betraying
It is only a PERSPECTIVE in me and you
But I cannot help but find
That we are drowning
Around all of these selfish, empty, and ignorant minds
Quick to start judging
Speaking only to condemn
With the proposter that stands in the wake of history's pen
They write what they see, only to be in the hearts of them
But my open eyes see nothing
Not as they do
And I am glad not to be one of them

But only towards the ignorant
