Inquisition, no admission, you hate the world and what I have become of it
Never noticed such a motive, sitting at the top just like a hypocrite
In your vision, television, look straight at me and God is standing in my place
You're all infidels, I sold the rebels, what's left to sell anyway, anyway?
Make you a martyr as I grow harder
I'm feeding off your pain every time you lose
We're all machines now, we got here somehow
Like me, you'll give in to all the abuse
I'm deciding, I'm not hiding, cause corporate medallions will keep me high
The decision, the division, I'm your god and I ain't gonna fucking die
I'm all encompassed, I make my justice, and you're my little bitch, there's no more pretend
You feel it's over, there is no closure, this violent world just has one big violent end
It's hardly breathing, there's no more dreaming
The things that I say will come to me in time
What's your long term plan, you're shaking my hand
The victims of this hate are always on my mind
Are you demolished, I want your promise, cause I'm your Mephistopheles of the betrayed
I'm the igniter, the false provider, when I'm inside your head I want you so afraid
I won't grow older, I'm the controller
Make it to the top and fuck the consequence
All I devour, I am power, you know this face, you feel my hate, Malevolent
Never liked the things that I've become or what I've made of you
Cause I've become the hypocrite, I hate myself, I always lose
I became the machine and the user and the fucking tool
It's done, I'm gonna smash myself, I know that I'm just broken too
