Vision in faith...


The blackest internal vogue with A beater as inviting as the darkest of holes Love hides in the shadows killing you to feel your warmth Hate is strutting in the diurnal course of fluorescence A congregation bathing in deception My dear what's the need for the calumniation? I'll take up cross the with conviction I'll take the lashes with no intermission I'll bleed in agony They'll bleed hypocrisy I'll die eternally But love will remember me! The faithful own your pneuma But they do not hold your amour Oh my love Burn them down and raise the stakes Let the flames devour them as they'd have the flames Devour us in the days of old Oh my dear with cherished gods and prophets They say their messiah was crucified As they nail into your hands I guess I am the personification of blackness (Am I so damned) In the name of love In the name of heart I will be villainized for the pursuit of art Let the art take away the false notion of discriminatory benevolence today Oh my dear we don't go up or down So if I die there is no reason to frown I loved you in our lives (even though you've made me cry) I have not been sacrificed For my flesh has killed their lies Jesus Christ was remarkably similar to I Just a man with vision in his eyes There'll be no resurrection here tonight There is no cause to fight Take up this "mark of the beast" Kill their insincerity Make them read their own book I was just fortunate enough to read the book
