Immortality Complex (feat. Max Mobarry) Lyrics

Why can't you see?
This is not for me
How are you so blind?

The purpose is but a means to an end
Below the surface you cannot just pretend

The crime:
Violence in the form of prosperity
It leaves you blind, the diamonds in your eyes
But nothing will change their mind

You look above, reach into the sky
While we struggle to survive, you've got diamonds in your eyes
With fire above and hell below, we both know where you'll go
The confines of mortality never cross your mind

We're dying in the streets
We can barely meet our needs
There's nothing left to readdress
This system is built to oppress

You're given one chance
You can't start over
Taking it for granted
It's such a shame

It's not too late, but our time is running short
A little bit of thought and consideration could go a long way

Why can't you see?
This is not for me
But all of humankind

So please tell me what it's gonna take
To make the diamonds leave your eyes
Before we run out of time

Nothing will change their...

Pitiful, is what I'd say
A waste of every passing day
Cyclical annihilation
Starving for a glance our way

"Reform, reform"
We shout from the streets
Blinded by the hatred and scorn

So please look past the diamonds in your eyes
See the error of your very design

A system can't be mended if it's functioning as intended
Revel in the flame you cast upon yourself, your negligence
It can't be reversed, but it can surely be stopped
In due time, we'll be fine, but only if you change your mind

Come with me and see the new day
Not a worry in mind, we have so much time
Forget the pain, it all goes away
If you know the price to pay

Come with me and start a new life
It's a beautiful sight, if you pay the price
"Better luck next time", that's what they say
Well I'm sorry you can't afford to be alive

You'd rather leave than stay
In this hell that you know
But when the tide comes your way
You'll reap what you sow

With fire from above
And hell from below
How can we keep our hope
With progress so slow?
