All Shall Perish Yet All Shall Live

Walking alone on a path that has been beaten down
Broken in by the feet of millions of souls
The road always travled, that of life
Leading to the same place, a pit filled with hate
A hate for being there, for even having it made
Hate that knows no end and that will never stop
Every soul to ever take life will one day cease
Hearts will stop and the chest of fate will no longer rise
Paint on faces in coffins to make them smile
Yet under the covers hides a person in terror
Living on in a place that we cannot know
I know of the land of pitty for I used to live there
A resident of hell fire, brimestone was my only friend
Now back with a new knowledge I am ready to set you free
All you have to do is ask and I'll give you the key
Malice and rage once held my hands that now hold yours
Look in my eyes and fly away, above the corruption
Never ending wars are fought on these battlefields
Riddled in the bones of victims who still scream for help
And no one comes, all the help has gone
It came in the first life, and they threw it away
Those like me who came with the answer
The very ones that you picked up and cursed to our faces
Now you know that I was always right from the beginning
Marching now as one of the eternal dead you wish it was different
That you listened to me, and made me your loving master
Tears won't bring about mercy only a harsher beating
Devils hold the reigns to your life now as you pass away
Going deeper into the darkness that has no end
For the hole only gets deeper the longer you fall
Lucky for you I was one who hit the bottom
That stopped the chain from continuing to grow
Hailing in a new generation, one without fear
Writing poetry that was stolen from the walls of prisons
I saw the faces of angels being destroied and they loved it
Taking it all in, I see the same spirit in your eyes
Loving your end for your ignorances has made you blind
And it breaks my heart to see you laugh as you die
This is the last time and this is the last goodbye
Over and over we try to work this out
And all this time all I wanted was you
But I can't have the things in life that don't belong to me
You will perish like the rest of the world
Unless you reach out and hold to me, an anchor in the blue
Don't let this place swallow you whole
Wake up and reach for the sky to be lifted to safety
I am the living sacrifice, use my blood as the learning curve
Concieved in fire I know the face of damnation
You will die, but that won't be the end
Give way to my way, the way that can save you forever
