Poet Introduction
Raw unfiltered vomit from the mind and spirit. Sometimes divine, sometimes disgusting, but always real.

Fractions of a Whole
I learned the ancient language of rhyme in my sleep. I yearned, my patience vanquished, but this time I'm going deep.
Rhymes surface in fractions, travel through external distractions, passing through metaphysical passages, entwined with the passion, to manifest into action. But expressing gets me stressed out and depressed 'cause nothing happens, so I set out on a quest to find my higher self and asked him...
Take a look at all these fractions, will they ever make a whole? If I took all these distractions, sucked them up into a hole, and let go of my reactions, could I...

Angels and Demons
Angels and demons are really the same
To them, our lives are but a game
You can stay here, or you can run there
Life is great, because you're going nowhere
There's nowhere to go, and there's nowhere to hide
No angels are coming along for the ride
They left you bleeding, they stopped believing
Now inside your mind, your demons are breeding
Angels don't believe in you
Friends, they keep on leaving you
Lovers, there's no breathing room
Spirit, is it even true?
What does that make you?
An angel? A demon? A human? A spirit?
A channel, keep...

Now inside your mind, your demons are breeding

Scattered Pieces of the Puzzle
All these demons in my head keep me nailed down to the bed, it's like they won't stop til I'm dead, what do they want from me? All the signs I see outside, taking nothing said in stride, cuts and bruises on my pride, it all comes naturally. Spilling vomit from my mind, sitting idly biding time, self expression's such a crime, they scream it's blasphemy. Your religion is a lie, but you won't ask yourself why, where do we go when we die? Someone answer me.
Your logic is so precious, you will make a perfect sentence, but can you read what it says? Could you if you thought less? Maybe...

Hole
I'll crawl back into my hole
Where it's safe and dark and cold
So please don't send your rope
Or a hand for me to hold
I've already seen the light
So beautiful and bright
Oh, it was quite a sight
I even tried to climb
The walls to reach its height
And the further that I climbed
The more that I would find
It's always out of reach
Dangled before me just to tease
And so I'm left with my disease
Alone here, left to freeze
Because the light, it is just fire
And as much as I desire
To reach out and touch the flames
All my...

And the further that I climbed

And so I'm left with my disease
Alone here, left to freeze

And as much as I desire

Angel in my Void
I was living like a corpse, buried underground
Hiding in a hole, nowhere to be found
Barely breathing air, resenting all the trees
Everything I saw was ridden with disease
I thought old wounds would never heal
So conditioned myself not to feel
I gave up searching for the light
Just sinking into endless night
Wandering around a constant nightmare
When I glimpsed something that shouldn't be there
Coated in pain, but I saw inside
A beauty so bright, she couldn't hide
We traded scars, and shared our fears
Then said, what are we doing here?...
Hiding in a hole, nowhere to be found
Barely breathing air, resenting all the trees
Everything I saw was ridden with disease
I thought old wounds would never heal
So conditioned myself not to feel
I gave up searching for the light
Just sinking into endless night
Wandering around a constant nightmare
When I glimpsed something that shouldn't be there
Coated in pain, but I saw inside
A beauty so bright, she couldn't hide
We traded scars, and shared our fears
Then said, what are we doing here?...

Fixation
I must have a fixation with feeling frustration, it's like I'm drawn to it like a fly to defecation. I have these expectations that no one ever meets, and so I lose my patience and my mind begins to leak, causing devastation with the havoc that I wreak. I lose sight of my destination, and feel I'm becoming weak. I might need a vacation, before the pain reaches its peak. I try to disconnect, but everything is intertwined. I'm feeling the effects from the horrors of my mind. I just want to eject the past, and leave it all behind. But all I do is whine, I let it take up all my time, giving into...

Vessel and a Voice
Born without a choice, I'm just a vessel and a voice, plunged into a hole with all these chocolate covered souls. Zombies in a void, living dead out to destroy, and we're all playing roles, whether a hero or a troll. The ego's like a toy, so fragile when employed, and all the damage takes its toll, you're just fractions of a whole. Trying to pick up all the pieces, and smooth out all the creases, looking to be enlightened when you're in the dark and frightened, and all the demons in disguise give you offerings of lies, on the surface it looks nice, but it always has its price. Want an easy...

End
What signal is the media sending? Sex and violence, it's all so tempting. Preachers, teachers, so condescending. You're born for silence, keep that hole empty. Fractured guidance, keep those hoes trendy. Just keep them spending, it's never-ending. Fuck transcending, we're all descending. There's no solution, there's just pretending. There's truth dilution and knowledge bending, world pollution and doom impending, nothing that's even worth defending, no revolution to be attending, this world is better off just ending.

Boundless
Stumbling through the void, wondering who to be. The answer's simple, yet you strain to see. Society's your last restraint, so fuck the picture of you they paint. They're not even using a colored palette, plus they have no artistic talent. With eyes sewn shut, their vision's limit could never see your boundless spirit. They'll steal your dreams and rip your seams, but only if you don't break free. The cage you're placed can be erased, don't let your self worth be defaced. Realize your eyes can open wider, see through lies and get much higher. That's where you deserve to be, controlling your...

Shackles
Heart of a lion, demeanor like jackal, he struggles like hell to break free from the shackles. A spirit so raw, not afraid of the law, you look at him wrong and he'll break your jaw. Don't try to fight back he's already broken, and he wouldn't filter the words that he's spoken. Don't let them soak in, he's a contradiction, creating friction with no conviction, but if you listen beyond the words, you'll find nonfiction, it's not rehearsed. Every thought from the back of his head, spewed forth like vomit, nothing left unsaid. He didn't care if he believed it or not, he wouldn't leave it in his...

Divine Disgust
Into material I was thrust, from divinity to disgust, I'm told to live through it's a must, the fear the loathing and the lust, never knowing who to trust, sometimes I want to bleed the rust, and disintegrate myself to dust. But god forbid I spill the real, because we're told it's weak to feel, just lock it all inside and seal, can't penetrate a wall of steel. What's left of us is empty shells, we're perpetrating our own hell, in this place we're forced to dwell. Now real's mistaken for a trend, enemies are confused with friends, this mass distortion never ends. I don't claim I'm free from...
