1. I

[Instrumental]

2. Nascent

An entire world at hand
A lost mind in the fight
No sense of direction
Nowhere to hide
Red in tooth and claw
Perpetual violence
Unrelenting assault
With only instinct guiding me
Red in tooth and claw
Unrelenting assault
Is this the only way to
Survive
I open my eyes I realize
Space between the body and mind
In spite of revelation
I'm compelled to persist
The pursuit of wisdom forsaken
I fight to exist
I find myself in a world
Propelled by the force of my own will
Scratching out a life with my own two hands
No time for seeking clarity
In this never ending scarcity
Survive
I open my eyes I realize
Space between the body and mind
Survival
I open my eyes I realize
Space between the body and mind
Unsafe and unspoken
This is all that I know
A buried identity
I stand alone
Survive
I open my eyes I realize
What else can be made of this life

3. Noumina

This is give and take
We’ve all wasted away in vain
Lost in a life of false endeavor
Lost in a life of self-seeking gain
We bind shoulder to shoulder
Let this dry spell end
We're weary from thin air that fills our lungs
If iron sharpens iron, we’re longing to be used
To fix our gaze collective
Colorless I grow
I can’t flourish on my own
And now with helpless hands may we come alive?
Our numbers down, thinned out,
Expire or thrive
Beg the favor of our earth below and sky above
We bind shoulder to shoulder
Let this dry spell end
We're weary from thin air that fills our lungs
If iron sharpens iron, we’re longing to be used
Send the rain, or we’ll cut out the roots
Colorless I grow
I can’t flourish on my own
And now with helpless hands may we come alive?
Our numbers down, thinned out,
Expire or thrive
From the dust we’ve come, to the dust we’ll go
Mother earth, father sky, let us reap what we've sown
Colorless I grow
This is give and take
We’ve all wasted away in vain
Send the rain
Saturate
This is give and take, and now we see clearly
Everything breathes
From the dust we’ve come, and now we see clearly
Everything breathes
Colorless I grow
I can’t flourish on my own
And now with helpless hands may we come alive?
Expire or thrive

4. Overlord

I'll grab the world by the throat
Conquer, destroy, divide
My only master is time
Disguised from beginning to end
Confidence in consequence
Rationale ascends and from the depths of dust I've watched us spring
And I pursue the power calling me
Rationale ascends and power calls me
Rid my way of the feeble at heart
What a great disdain I've learned for you
Losing grip of a mystical mind
I feel my iron fist clinching our fate
Here, I will define our course
Hear me, declare me king
Now, I see, the beauty of dominion surrounding me
Then, you sought, for validation from the stars
And now I decide the Earth won't tell my future
I'll write my own
I'll grab the world by the throat
I'll grab the world by the throat,
Conquer, destroy, divide
My only master is time
I confess
Your expense is my gain
I confess
Your entire life fed my flame
And to tell the truth, I wouldn't change a thing
When all of the ones who I loved, I traded for nothing

5. Order

The Order finds me
Havoc flees
I find myself, my reason
I am only a fragment of her physique
We say unto you, dispose of all you possess
Embrace us
Law scribed on our hearts
The Order states
My purpose and my place:
To be a part of the body
Enslaved to truth, yet freed of my primal ways
Fed up with seeking glory
Unsatisfied
Won’t you submit to her law?
Give up yourself
Join the righteous fight
We say unto you, dispose of all you possess
Obey us
Law scribed on our hearts
The Order states
My purpose and my place:
To be a part of the body
Enslaved to truth, yet she frees us of our destined bane
Pledge to us
She'll see to it that you're delivered truth
Pledge to us
Eternity is her guarantee
We say unto you, dispose of all you possess
Obey us
The Order finds me
Havoc flees
You find yourself, your reason
We are only a fragment of her physique
We say unto you, dispose of all you possess
Obey us
Law scribed on our hearts
The Order states
My purpose and my place:
To be a part of the body
Enslaved to truth, yet freed of my primal ways

6. Enterprise

I've explored a thousand doors and seen a thousand shut
An empire at stake, I know what must be done
Made my way to the top without ever looking down
A glorified slave no more,
This is the pursuit
I play the game to win,
Get to the bottom of this
Turn a blind eye to your blind faith
I will not bow down
I control my fate
From the top of the pinnacle I’ll build my throne
A free world
Free will
Set apart from confinement that bound me
My eyes are open, yet this is a dream
I wont wait to receive the truth
I'll fight to find it
I won't be mislead down the mountain
I'll reach its peak
I'll climb it on my own
From atop the pinnacle, I’ve built my throne
Free world
Free will
Set apart from servitude
My eyes are open, yet this is a dream
I play the game to win,
Get to the bottom of this
The world now held in my palm
Discovery alone, brought me to where I belong
I know I'm safe here
A slave no more
This is the pursuit
I play the game to win,
Get to the bottom of this
Turn a blind eye to your blind faith
I will not bow down
I control my fate
Show me something more than the words in your script
Prove it to me

7. Empath

Truth is a matter of context
Every idea, every value
Can you prove it better than the rest?
We're all the same
You're no better than the rest of us
You forged a tomb
Disguised as a shelter
You lit the fuse
Now face your deadline
The innocent sentenced to a hell
Pursing capital, turn your head away as they plead for your help
Well they all had a story to tell
Now, try not to look away as they burn
So much damage done,
How long until you realize
This is our last shot?
Truth is a matter of context
Every value
Can you prove it better than the rest?
We're all the same
You forged a tomb
Disguised as a shelter
You lit the fuse
Now face your deadline

8. Ikigai

[Instrumental]

9. Prism

I see the world in every shade
I know exactly who you are and who you need me to be
But is it all for one, or one against all?
Always forsaking the past and fearing what lies ahead
And this pursuit of certainty has only ended in rivalry
Lives engulfed by the friction, united only by division
"Now we have the light"
Your collective battle cries,
"Our notion will prevail, all others will surely die"
"Now we have the light"
Forever chasing a new harmony
Can't you see your light is a fabrication from a false source?
Ever-changing, transformation hasn't run its course
You and I will never see the same
Set apart by the differences on this page
It's okay, I'll embrace my solitary state
I see the world in every shade
I know, exactly who you are and who you need me to be
It's one against all

10. Pandemica

A new light that guides my way
A new path beneath my feet
Breaking through the stone where roots are showing, a tree is growing
There is no "one way"
No need to follow suit.
Every stage has its purpose
Every branch will bear its fruit
Can you see earth's on its deathbed?
Fading light, on borrowed time
Can we let go of our pride?
We must relinquish this fight
And now I see we've found a new way
We have discarded the desire to follow suit
Every stage serves its purpose
Every branch will bear its fruit
Can you see earth's on its deathbed?
Fading light, on borrowed time
Can we let go of our pride?
We must relinquish this fight
Cast regard to the sky as the tides rise
Virtue shallows –
The masses' demise:
A world at war
Can you see earth's on its deathbed?
Fading light, on borrowed time
Can we let go of our pride?
We must relinquish this fight

11. Integral

Countless values left in the dust
Forever seeking harmony
A lifetime of asking questions
Has led me to only one thing
The journey never ends
Unless you stop seeking
Never stop searching
Opened my eyes and realized
The space between body and mind
It was give and take, everything breathed
Countless values left in the dust
Forever seeking harmony
Surrendered dominion, retired my crown
Gave up myself, my reason, voided my vows
The journey never ends
Unless you stop seeking
Never stop searching
The very moment you stop asking "What else could be made of this life?"
You're already dead
I've climbed down the mountain
Given up, abandoned the pursuit
I established a haven
All condemnation left behind
Forward, I fix my eyes
The journey never ends
Unless you stop seeking
Never stop searching
I've climbed down the mountain
Given up, abandoned the pursuit
I established a haven
All condemnation left behind
Forward, I fix my eyes
A lifetime of asking questions
Forever seeking truth has led me to only one thing
The journey never ends
Unless you stop seeking
