Hypnagogia

A gift of oblique insight past the cortex gate
Or just a downward spiral straight to primal rage
No past regrets or future fears
Dissipating mainstream of consciousness
Imagination, Illumination
Somnambulant manifestation
Imagination, Illumination
Twisted faces of uncreation
Darken prowess, black to the flesh
Clandestine caverns of thoughts not caressed
Down here from nothing they grow
Embryonic roots, a mind just evolved
Deception In revelation
Destruction born of the hidden
subconscious dependency
mind and matter merge as one
Destruction born of the hidden
subconscious dependency
Reverse the pattern of your ingest
Fill the cavities of subconscious past
Beyond the core, contours of a rising state
Open mind’s eye
And through my dreams I combine the elements
Dimensions melt like ice in my hand
Strength of this might flows through my being
My time invoked interminably
First sight, then sound
The limits of thoughts transcend
Into a gorge relent
Disgust, mislead
The virus in which we breed
Malignant evil seed
Revelation of existence
will forever be arcane
Face to face with the fabric
of all that ever was

Watchmaker

I was, I will
Void between the stars
I was, I am, will, One in all
Origin of every thought
I was, I will
From chaos to logos
I was, I am, will, One in all
I am the unnamed leader
From a burning pulsar to just a single cell
Every entity consists of identical biological mind and matter
Biologically, Chemically, atomically, ontologically
Theological concepts are a mere convergence
Scientific hypotheses oversimplify
Does evolution negate design ?
Does a complex design need a creator ?
From a burning pulsar to just a single cell
Every entity consists of identical biological mind and matter

Veins of Delusion
03:47
|

Repeating the cycles of life
With an obscure origin of existence
Anthropic principle, basis of our knowledge
Can’t understand infinite complexity
Low life form- Unable to realize truth
Bound to a state- of dimensional limitations
Senseless Reasoning- Acting is prefabricated
Dictated by...
Genocide is our only means
There is no, is no revelation
Unable to comprehend truth
A Void without, without visions
Genocide is our only means
There is no, is no revelation
Unable to comprehend truth
A Void without, without visions
Human Kind is narrowed into its anthroposphere
Human mind is sycophantic to an opaque structure
Proclaiming the lies
Ignoring insight
To serve dimension’s might
Repeating the cycles of life
With an obscure origin of existence
Anthropic principle, basis of our knowledge
Can’t understand infinite complexity
Caught like in veins, which eclipse the mind
Humanity is succumbing to the cosmic might
Caught like in veins, which eclipse the mind
Humanity is succumbing to the cosmic might
Primitive mind, limited sight
Dimensional might, guidance is lost
Primitive mind, limited sight
Dimensional might, guidance is lost

As liar to self, afflicted thought and action
Restrained in chains, errors in refraction
Impulse control, to the brink of inaction
Or complete lack thereof
unleashed chain reaction
Engorgement of the caustic
Born to revel in the gnostic
Capital "T" truth, reasoning’s deflected
The gnosis in, self-immolation rise
Decepting the conscious
Denial of the essence to seek
Crawling down the lifer's path
from awareness til death
The will to ingest, what must be swallowed whole
Is found beneath the pyre, ignited in unrest
Reject the guise of abjection
misguided penance is born
Through guilt and deprecation
for sins that never were
Rejecting misguided penance
For sins that never were
The only goal is acceptance
Of a life that follows will
The intrinsic ugliness (revelation)
Of what may lay beneath it all (deprevation)
No longer can it repulse the urge (indication)
Acts of auto aggressive rage (determination)
Reject the guise of abjection, misguided penance is born
Of guilt and deprecation, for sins that never were
To burn, to turn, a lesson almost learned
As fire fuels fire, as skin peels away, lifeblood and bone turn to ash

Intimidate, obscene splendour validate
Force fed hirarchy, instigate the powers that be
Temples to commerce, parliaments and courts of law
Palaces, cathedrals, suppression, shock and awe
World order imposition, force the bended knee
Subserviant divison, of pride and misery
Orders, to force at will the status - aneristic
Disorder arising from within - illusion
React, reject, regurgitate - aneristic
Dissolve in entropy to reform - illusion
Found in fervent apocalyptic lies
Disillusionment, the final fall
From a different sphere, from another time
Seems they’re losing there and their fears remain
Unspoken dreams caught in stupor
reawake with phoenix eyes
To redeem the lost and fallen
and rearrange the age-old lies
Dialectic struggle, upheaval, severed heads of state
Isomorphic Dys/Utopia
in the mind and the mob at the gates
Come the day they all shall fall
Monuments to an illusion
Insurgency, swarm energy
A monument to disillusion
Enter dissonance, equated time
World in upheaval, or stand in line
Gears of the god machine grind to fleeting halt
Past equilibrium swings the pendulum
As history unfolds
Enter dissonance, equated time
World in upheaval, or stand in line
Gears of the god machine grind to fleeting halt
Past equilibrium swings the pendulum

Here we wait for the messiah to come
From the womb of the zodiac
Intoxicated transcending
Walking up the steps towards the apex
Of this divine terminal
Ethnopharmacology drugs the disease
Trespass into ecliptic´s focal point
Implication of entheogenecy
Leads to conscious unification of
Our god, our one, our all, the fall
Hierophant of our Congregation
Guide us the way to our divine salvation
Objects of perfection hidden from our minds
What was once just beyond our reach
We all shall crawl out of the womb
What was once horizon of our minds
We’ll initiate the birth of gods
What was once just beyond our reach
We all shall crawl out of the womb
What was once horizon of our minds
We’ll initiate the birth of god, of man, of one
of all and none
Culminate delivery
peel back the chrysalis and irrupt
From the pupal stage, our shell of epiphany
Culminate delivery, peel back the chrysalis and irrupt
From the pupal stage, our shell of epiphany
Hierophant of our Congregation
Guide us the way to our divine salvation
Objects of perfection hidden from our minds

Black Floods

The gears are greased with the blood of millions
We are the engine of this omnicide machine
Start to dig your teeth into the gaping wound
and paint the shores in tombstone black
We push the nails of anthropocentrism into our eyes-
into our eyes. We starting to push the nails of ignorance
into our eyes as the march towards sheol's throat goes on
Concrete caskets- Concrete caskets grow like tumours
blinding our ideology; Grow like Tumours
Concrete caskets- Concrete caskets obscure the stars
blinding our ideology- Obscure the stars
This Planet is a breathing, a breathing grave, for us all
The apparatus stops at nothing
It will lead us straight onward to nothing
Cosmos is a self correcting algorithm
Our arrogance can only be outmatched by insignificance
Like a grain of sand we are lost in this demiurgically machinery
We will perish shrouded in foul waters
Choking and smeared with oil around us
Bones merge with plastic beneath filth and debris
Can you still carry the crown of creation ?
Cosmos is a self correcting algorithm

Anthropocene Purgation

Sink deep down, a grave of putrid earth
This shroud is sculpted to inhale all flesh
An unnatural exposure of the atmosphere´s deprivation of obedience.
The toothed wheels of our vanished world rattle in hollowness
Lay down to rest…
Start to behold the miscarriage
Which held the liquid of all origin
Complete obliteration of all organic life
A germ deep in the mire, the oceans rotten waste
Pull your heads back to let the oceans shroud flood through your veins and tear you apart
Intertwined in the waste of this cathartic stream filled with what’s left of our flash of existence
Lay down to rest…
Start to behold the miscarriage
Which held the liquid of all origin
All life forms erased by Gaia´s wrath
What once became life in the Paleolithic,
Will now starve to their death
Naturally we will be extinguished
An unnatural exposure of the atmosphere´s deprivation of obedience
The toothed wheels of our vanished world rattle in hollowness
