Bilingual
The reflection in the mirror's never been clearer
(Pretend I care, act so aware)
Contradiction and fiction the empire I live in
(Built by oppressed, proclaimed as blessed)
You see the price of our dream was killing, raping, and screaming
But I came to terms because I don't have to see it
And still there are fools who just refuse to believe that
There's blood on your hands, on my hands, are we damned?
I am part of sickness, unmistaken given Paradise
Wanted more for the taking
Am I guilty as the ones I blame?
Are we all the fucking same?
ย
Introspection and fear of my faults still adhered to
(Yet play the saint, virtue unstained)
How I care for deliver my brothers and sisters
Altars remain in Mammon's name
I am part of sickness, unmistaken given Paradise
Wanted more for the taking
Am I guilty as the ones I blame?
Are we all the fucking same?
A wish, a dream, we'd do anything
Slaughter the innocent
Tune out their screams to achieve the means
To spread our disease
Surrounded by suffering, living like kings
ย
Pick through the bones of the dead
Craft the gold teeth to a crown on our head
And spit out the bile
Pick through the bones
Kings of a fucking ant pile
I am part of sickness, unmistaken given paradise
Wanted more for the taking
Am I guilty as the ones I blame?
Are we all the fucking same?
Wanna give instead of taking
Wanna sacrifice for a better world waiting
Absolution, hand in hand with change
We are not the fucking same
