The Apex Doctrine - System Divide

Brainwashed and programmed

Begging for approval, what approval?

We crave things out of reach

A vicious circle of social needs

My own enemy is me

Fate twisted by metal

My mind has been torn

A scorching reality, a twisted hate resides in me

Through gears and bone it grinds its way

The releasing of a plague, reality

Through compulsive urges

Another man is born

Life has come crashing before my eyes

As the person deep within me dies

Transcending all

Fate twisted by metal

My mind has been torn

My own enemy is revealed

My own enemy is me

Debilitating reality, is there a point

Am I even awake?

I am nonmipotent

Am I poisoned beyond the point?

Now don’t disappoint them and do what you’re told

Like cattle to the slaughter, no will to oppose

Independence denied

Inside me, victim of a raging war

Inside me, the person I was before

Inside me, I am lost in this maze

Inside me, caught in a tragic phase

Within me, release myself from denial

I’m no longer begging for approval

Inside me, I am lost in this maze

Inside me, caught in a tragic phase

How do I release the rage?

Now don’t disappoint them and do what you’re told

Like cattle to the slaughter, no will to oppose

Into an emptier void

We crave things out of reach

A empty void of social needs
