 | Lust
Your voice is that of an angel
soothing and powerfullike the birds of morning rise
leaving me fearful
your eyes are dazzling
trance like, deep, and intoxicating
poisoning my mind
the hook you're baiting
your presence is that of a goddess
powerful, wise and respectful
like the beauty of mother nature herself
I become more suspectful
but I'm so in love with you
if my love is a sin
damnation is always worth
you and our future kin
you have me in your hands to crush
you have me begging by your knees
and you abuse my desperate lust
and don't hear my loving pleas
please don't make me die for you
I've already sufferred enough
but love is love, however blind
and that is my life, tough
the lust tears me apart
kills me inside
and this is my destiny
to lie on no one's side.
Pride
Oh of course, you're higher then me
Oh God, Mesire, superior
hear me out for once
the minority isn't inferior
you have been blinded
in your arrogance
and oh so foolishly
indulged in ignorance
I have earned my respect
you were born into power
and it is I who will die
and live in hearts, the martyr
you think you're so great
because you beat me at a game
you think your little miss perfect
because you have money and fame
well today the minority speaks
as we come to power
and you will emerge from the rubble
of your once egotistical tower
and with this tower crashing
your ego dies and kills you
and we walk all over you for once
as your soul rips in two
you don't know what to believe in anymore
now you know how we once felt
but unwilling to accept you back
the changed man is still dealt.
Envy
I look at what you have
and what you do
I idolise the way you do it
live your life and help others too
you become a role model, my mentor
and I learn to be like you, in every way
and it's like it's natural for me
however awkward, the others say
but I do not have what you have
and I have no respect for being you
I lust to be you, for just one day
but my soulful wish, never comes true
and so I stalk
I watch and learn
become more like you
and inside it burns
but still no respect
filth on the sidewalk
after all my effort
and hard work
so now I must kill you
replace and take the respect
and with your blood on my hands
I'm more you than you, I'm perfect
I'm incarcerated, locked up
counselled and shown the way for free
I'm you, without the respect
and that's the way it's always going to be...
Gluttony
I hunger for it all
this is my greed
I hunger for more
more then I need
I feed the hunger
feed the urge
satisfy the appetite
and watch me merge
I become what I eat
I am plentiful
but I see myself
just pitiful
and in my desperation
I eat more and more
consuming to feel worth something
my health becomes poor
over-weight
over riddiculed
over persecuted
and over ruled
I get worse and worse
and can't stop now
I feel sick in my sloth
like a machine-cow
and so I get the surgery
to cut the fat out of me
but my appetites still there
I'm drenched in sin, my gluttony.
Sloth
You starve yourself
and wish to find your place
you ain't gonna find it
if you continue at this pace
it's now ain't worth living
because you're unhealthy
you become sick
mentally and physically
starving and dying
you seek a way out
with death itself
circling about
you slit your wrists
with the knife
brings you closer to death
throwing away your life
you starve, you deteriate
the hunger grows strong
you cut yourself to bleed a little
both of which are wrong
you deteriate, you rot
and the blade creates infection
you now are dying slowly
painfully in one direction
but there's no light at the end
just the dark abyss
and you spiral down and down
with death's cruel kiss...
Greed
I watch in wonder
as it all poors in
raking it all up
for the organisin'
I'm pretty damn lucky
to have gambled my way through
and now I want more
and to steal it off you
as I reach the peak
I think I'm going well
put it all on the line
feeling pretty swell
but the tide turns
and I lose it all
you find I have cheated
on the last call
I'm left poor and lonely
out on the streets
with a lust for the prize
I sink to new feets
I steal from the innocent
steal from the poor
make a con job
just for some more
I'm a blood sucking parasite
for what I need
and I'll leave you broke
in my lustful greed.
Wrath
An eye for an eye
leaves the whole world blind
but revenge is so sweet
when justice comes to mind
a tooth for a tooth
leaves the whole world speechless
but I hunger for the pain
that I put onto you, regardless
the faciast eye is fair
take control and allienate
and to all those who oppose
DISCRIMINATE
to be the butterfly
you have to get ugly
charge and attack
behind their back
surprise is the key
to overpowering the lock
take the upperhand
from the steeple to the dock
persecure the scapegoats
crucify those martyrs
kill and torture them all
show them who are the masters
and so comes another's justice
as you wish to avenge
and my wrath lives on
in a chain of revenge.
