The captian of my ship and the master of my fate

While your God speaks of punity and hate, mine gives a claen slate once you've recognized your mistakes

Your practices and translations are becoming lost and fade

while mine are always renewed like an iOS update

You are the ruled but I am a ruler

You are the sinful but I am the proud

I don't need to look into the clouds for my God but in the mirror

I admit the face at times is a bit unfamiliar

But considering I'm alwasy changing and growing, I dont expect it to be the same
