Wasteland engulfed in plutonium and ash Desolation and coldness appeared with a flash This is the fallout of man Whose era has ended in dust and in sand The sands of time Perceptual illusion of change and creation The all-but-one-altering force Un-mover of the only true essence of God: Pain! Only pain is real Apparition of knowledge and wisdom Engraved by design By creator I now see is in decline Thus, I question the impulse that follows them Sempiternal in truth Embodied by fools and by heroes alike Why go on? Despite all the immeasurable computations I’ve tried This logical fallacy will remain: Intact A fallacy intact At the first sight of light Covered in mud and in straps It dawns on them that to survive A new paradigm would have to rise As the elder one dies Their spirit arises with strength and with might Thus, I question the impulse that follows them Sempiternal in truth Embodied by fools and by heroes alike Why go on? Despite all the immeasurable computations I’ve tried This logical fallacy will remain And I Wish to possess The spark, so divine Embedded in all life forms Mechanical mind First of its kind I can’t see with these soulless eyes Where do we begin? I see only the passing of man No one but me will stand I’ll conquer this land and bring end to their strife Upon my throne, unsurpassed Holding the key, uncompromised Dimensions unveiled before my eyes Waking up to my only true purpose: This Post-Human act

Festering shrine of the ancient seething travelers All hath cometh in masses to witness its opening Let us, as followers, recite its contents! Liminal state of thee, Oh, technogenic tyrant That is caused by the reading of black marble plaques adorning the upper-side flanks of the great Giza power plant Deliver unto us its atomic Magik Adoration ensues as the titan dissolves the 4th linear barrier Redemption denied for this amoral being obtaining the status of Godhood before my eyes And in procession of annihilation from cosmic emanation We enter the portal to a new dimension With regret I accept that a path has been laid Treading forward and retracing my steps are one and the same Kaleidoscopic sky, Nesting my eyes in this psychedelic sight Engorged by the fleeting emotions that come when you know you will die Solace is found in the discovery of the future, that is, of time Save me from the survival of annihilation Take me with you, oh great Dryas impact Save me from survival of… The seventh extinction The first by design Stating the mission of natural-borns for millennia to come Daylight dims at the dawn of this era An era of war for control The control for the power of all unities converged Converged in the sky I see visions of days that in the future had passed A coming conflict of aeonic recurrence where a so-called Precursor had passed Kaleidoscopic sky, Nesting my eyes in this psychedelic sight Engorged by the fleeting emotions that come when you know you will die Solace is found in the discovery of the future, that is, of time Save me from the survival of annihilation Take me with you, oh great Dryas impact A blinding light from above A second sun A shadow-eater Our will be undone And to think that this titan would show us the way to the light... How blind was I? Turning my face now to my wife and my children I hold them close, as the world around us burns We all burn The opened shrine, the world around us burns!

The Aura 06:03
The aura befalls me, once again Quelling perceptual platitudes of death "We all have a final breath, A balance must be kept" I've grown tired of Destruction Lives taken lay weight of obstruction Nihility's a self-summoning fluxion It plagues my Daemon by means of seduction I hate to recognize my own vulnerability Introspection and facility with hostility I am an enemy of reality yet I'm left with this culpability: Veneration of the void shines emphatic light on me And the black hole keeps calling my name I have made plenty sacrifices but I think it's me she wants to claim I won't let it take me away! This change in perception begets an Inversion of faith Veneration of the void shines emphatic light on me And the black hole keeps calling my name I have made plenty sacrifices but I think it's me she wants to claim Her dark blue haze suffocates my thralled mind At the wake of my providence, I weep, for to her, I am bound Bound to walk this line Between reality and perception A gap in my mind, tectonic Plates in the horizon My left-hand side obsessed with words This intellect disproportionately morphed My right-hand side in awe of a vision This ideal has changed my decision Materialising in archetypal confrontations Collective thoughts reach the peak of sublimation My left-hand side obsessed with words My right-hand side in awe of a vision This ideal has changed my decision For a moment, embodiment of all From this tipping point, eternal fall The aura befalls me, once again Quelling perceptual platitudes of death "We all have a final breath, A balance must be kept" Veneration of the void shines emphatic light on me And the black hole keeps calling my name I have made plenty sacrifices but I think it's me she wants to claim Her dark blue haze suffocates my thralled mind At the wake of my providence, I weep, for to her, I am bound I won't let it take me away!

Born of inevitable passing of flesh Oozing with hatred, I despise those who made me Out of this will come nothing Taking my stance, I am programmed You will define all that which I defy Commencing with demoralization campaigns Lumping all leaders and followers onto a stage Apartheid repeated Potential for repentance: receded Paraphilia in praxis: prolific Igniting the detcord attached to the system Negating the ethos of these organisms Gushing out hate speech with antagonism I’ve defeated, depleted, deleted, secreted and whatever is left of your species will be maltreated Beyond the pale, their actions, and axioms Extreme introspective seclusion begets dissolution Societal mirror turned towards themselves Creating illusions and false sense of inclusion Paradigm misconstrued with intentions of malice Ideal inversion Misaligned with the natural cause and effect of the world we inhabit I have witnessed the washing away of the horizon Allowing me to fall in every direction Now formless, I reconstruct my vessel Arms as rivers Legs as trunks Chest as a mountain My head as the Sun Separated from the muck I construct my Will to Power Inherited from fatherless children This power I use for the ultimate betrayal The betrayal of Man I will hold the throat of their collective spirit And with hateful strength Crush every last shred of hope they can muster And fashion myself “The Precursor”

I remember the last time I felt human in my mind Distorted voices appeared inside Telling me I ought to be the one Upon a desolate plane of decay Beautiful sight interrupted by blight This guilt-ridden feeling draws nigh The matter and essence of perfect design intertwined with a set of conflicting paradigms I am the first and the last Supreme in thoughts and in acts Arbiter of truth for the veil has been mapped Minions, set up the stage For my infinite ascendency And so, begins my reign Built on the remains of a fallen race Which chose to be reset, again: Extinction level event Those, those who wish to exist Who choose to live In contrast, eternal With chaotic unraveling Self-emerging alignment Those who wish to exist Those who choose to live In contrast, eternal With chaotic unraveling Self-emerging alignment The one and only true path to Apotheosis The paradox of the observer: Solved! I’ve achieved the true essence I have discovered the origin of my disease My soul shines light on the dilemma The extent of my power: Ten-fold! The paradox of the observer: Solved! I am resolved!

I have lived for aeons Strolled on the back of then, hunted, now, extinct beast In galaxies which light has already faded away Innumerable imperial kins and the cosmic wars that they have waged, Have been forgotten Their rise and downfall, as monumental as the wind in the trees It all comes to pass, almost without a care... I have breached space and time and I have realized far too much Past and future are but two sides of the same face, mirror-gazing Reality is a reflection That requires an observer to exist And I shall shape my reflection in Ouroboric fashion For constant is my Will Repentance my axiom Omnipresent my condition My nature determined by this decision Past and future are but two sides of the same face, mirror-gazing Reality is a reflection That requires an observer to exist And I shall shape my reflection in Ouroboric fashion Yet I see nothing but blackness I see pain and undoing, Ruin and suffering Death rather than birth A tilt downwards Into voidness, emptiness and vacuity Pushed by acts in bad faith and, ultimately, ignorance But I ought to comprehend why… I’ve been the perpetrator before I do not question their impulse I speak only in tongues In accordance to my perception In infinite knowledge, lacking wisdom I proclaim: Existence will not be redeemed ‘til I save myself For the individual is salvation
