Lurking beyond the perceptional world A spectrum of light designed to enslave the foolish mind Since the beginning, the moment of birth Commenced the light's assimilation Negation Binding souls to the prison of Earth To accommodate a slave deprivation Prismatic delusion With so many paths to follow and none to save your soul Divisions of darkness swarming the blood Calcified minds go blind Lechery and wealth sway the flow Dictating from the shadows to stay afloat By their God's design Mind dispersion Chains embrace your appendages And you sip from a brackish sea of lies The wicked have come forth Before your eyes The message is clear We are the acolytes, too weak to overthrow Nefarious kings from their thrones Mere puppets cannot change the flow We are the acolytes Let them bleed our bodies of its soul Plagued are the thoughts of those who think Reality is what is seen Dissimulation conceals the fog of suffering We are the acolytes Too weak to overthrow Bleed the body of its soul We sleep in wasted dreams and lucid memories Slumber apprentice Reabsorbing back into the machine False light refracts Through sightless eyes
