VLAD LYRICS

1. The Man And The Machine

Commanding sacred structures that aren't their own
Devolving adapting organisms
This is spiraling out of control
The system run by enslaved human souls

Destroying all that's right, procreating what's wrong
Attempting to fix what was fine all along
Instead of peace the government chooses to fight
They feed upon the losses of innocent lives

They who feed upon more than bread
They who feed upon controlling your head
They with enough money to provide a guise
That they will lead you, then why do they hide?

Oil companies sacrificing civilian lives
Raping and pillaging every single kind
Of living, breathing, radiant light
This consciousness is dark, it's behind your eyes
You cannot separate I from I mind
Nor from the cosmic divinity we all share inside

Outside the norm, you just might die
Outsiders are not welcome under society's sky

Everything changes except humans in cages
Ancient mysteries demystified from before you had died
You sell your holy trinity, Soul, Body, and Mind
I don't give a fuck what you tell me, you wasted your time

2. The Ghost Possessed

Demanding sacred rights
Is not a pagan act
They who feed upon the light
Have our souls under attack
You must defend your heart
You must transcend your mind
Nature gave you laws to follow
Your body is only borrowed

The possessions of the man
Possess the man to be possessed
Cyclical and trifle
You have to do your best
To never be scared
To always be calm
To be content with what you have
Realize you were fine all along
Hold a ceremonious thought
Believe your faith to be your strength
Discover what was lost
In the abyss of what you were taught

"Thy soul shall find it's self alone
Mid dark thoughts of the grey tombstone
Not one or all the crowd to pry
Into thine hour of secrecy
Be silent in that solitude,
Which is not loneliness
For then the spirits of the dead
Who stood in life before thee
Are again in death around thee"
[- Edgar Allan Poe]

3. The Wasteland And The Garden

Awaken to the other world
Seemingly subtle, yet far more profound
The mundane reality gives your free will purpose
Mortality is simply illusion

The pinnacle of selfishness is upon us
Those who devote themselves to higher planes
Shall be rewarded by the silent gods

Embracing the cataclysm that isn't being
Will elevate your consciousness,
If you have the strength

Molded as a beast into the world of the living
I am a soul burning bright in absolute darkness

4. The Lord And The Sword

In the cemetery of your self
You will find that you were lost
Never once had you meditated
On the concept of your demise
You focus solely on your uprising
Never upon your personal downfall

To be a true leader you must understand
The Sword of Damocles is not just for one man
It circles above your head
Hanging on by a thread

You're held to the highest standard,
Eyes are watching everywhere
Your headstone mocks your head
Your mind went nowhere, now you're dead

Never underestimate the truth
It's marked in stone now above you [2x]

Seek into the Lord and ye shall find
That you are he, and you hath failed

Humanity casts it's eyes away
From it's shepherd led astray [2x]

5. The Philistine And The Deity

Trust no one, do not even trust yourself
You have been lied to, and have lied as well
The ruling king of our modern societies
Is betrayal of the soul, total dishonesty

You hide behind your veil of pain
Of which you can not see through
To lift it is to be blinded
By the radiant light of truth

Your comfort is only a delusion
Your life is only an illusion
Human communication in it's entirety
Leads you further away from divinity

To try to explain the truth
Is only to make us all confused
No matter how simply one can word it
It will never be understood

Mortality gives you false hope
That you can do and say all that you want
If you knew you were immortal
You would have chosen purity

Remain in the silence of your mind
It's the truest form of God
Communicating to you from the cosmos

The quiet is louder than you have believed

Do not justify your sins
Under the guise of innocence
Death is but a transformation
You choose your evolution

All is judged on even scales
Your sins are compared to mine [2x]

6. The Immortal And The Universe

Tread lightly in the material world
Your actions are always accounted for
All things you do will come back to you
In the end of your life

Should you choose to be reborn,
Awakening will be a trial
Time doesn't heal every wound
Past lives will always haunt you

In the deepest reaches of your mind
You will feel your ancient power
You have been here since before human kind
You have forgotten this with time

To remember who you were
Will take you many years to know
To remember your forgotten names
Is to be reborn anew

There are those who have been wicked eternal
As well as those who are angels forever

Until the end of all things,
Until the void of space devours,
The vastness of your reality
Is infinitely living [2x]

Immortal is our nature

7. I Am That I Am

How many times must I spin around the sun
Searching for the answer to the reason I'm alive?
Endlessly in cycles, spiraling through life
Revolving around God, the closest star

Humanity so close to He
Oblivious and sacrilegious [2x]

The sky is an open Bible
The holiest of all
Written by the truest god,
Unadulterated knowledge

Come to understanding through your acceptance
Embrace this chaotic force that gives you life

Compelling resolution
Defining absolute perfection
Descending spectrums of light
Illuminates my soul and my Third Eye

This natural birthright to claim divinity as my own
I shall not deny

I decide my fate, this I have dictated
My whole life
I am the purest essence of my self
I can only ascertain my rightful
Glory
Triumph
Victory
Success
Domination
Transcendence
Absolution
Kingdom
Heaven

Endlessly in cycles, spiraling through life
Revolving around God, the closest star

Humanity so close to He
Oblivious and sacrilegious [2x]

The sky is an open Bible
The holiest of all
Written by the truest god,
Unadulterated knowledge

Come to understanding through your acceptance
Embrace this chaotic force that gives you life

God is everything
Everything is God
You are everything
You are God
This has been true since before you have known it
This has been true since before you understood it [2x]

This has been true since before you have known it
This has been true since before you understood it
You have been infinite, even as nothingness
You will be infinite, even as nothingness [2x]

8. The Testament And The Tested

A microscopic pulse on a planet in space
Is a beacon of hope for the conscious sentient
The smallest fibers of material
The largest stars of any galaxy
All melt together in the vertex
Neutralized, equalized
All complexities unravel
All simplicities unite

In this negating meditation
Many things will come to light
Do you appreciate your life?
Would you care if you had died?

Do you serve a greater purpose?
Do you embrace the Earth, or do you avoid it?
Alien intelligence in the people's ignorance
Lack of self accomplishments
Your ancestors, you dismissed
You view the truth as lies
Confused from evil all your life

If you find no comfort in the sky
Consider yourself dead inside
This world used to be beautiful
Humanity has made it ugly
This world used to be Heaven
Humanity damned it to Hell
Devout devoured,
Sacrificial sacred suicide

Offer up your ego for nothing
Let nothing fill you, let it rid you of your lies
You sit upon a throne of bones
Cloaked in the flesh of human kind

At the top of the spine,
Your kingdom inside of the mind
Imagination, communication
Ascend the spirals of conscious perception
Create for yourself a divine dedication
Refuse the evils of human deception
Forgiveness, transcendence
No lust for decadence
Reaffirm your truest intent
May your soul be vigilant

God eat God
Until all gods are one
God eat God
Until all gods are one

9. Hypernova
