High pitched shrieks, my body lie dead in the streets Yeahhh, my body lie dead in the streets (repeat 4X)
The darkened clouds reflect my inner confusion Frustrating feelings of dying too soon and I'm sitting in plain view of Master and all of his glory in purgatory, I'm not your everyday sinner It's often viewed as stepping into a great light with shadows of time, some people are forgotten in life Move in past situations, stolen moments frozen proving you ain't had a thing but evil in your human heart It's startling, but I keep on following The pain is mind-boggling, I hear angry souls hollering High pitched shrieks, my body lie dead in the streets Crackheads searching through my pockets too I see this all from side view Now as I stand in the judgment of my forefathers They agree I was murdered without my goal accomplished Inside my heart is where the curse lay scared in the worst way like a savior on the third day, I rise
Chorus:
"feel my aura, just around death's corner" (Rise!) Rise! (repeat 4X)
The actual transition between death and life reveals darks passageways, painted like stained glass Soaking wet from the rain and my brain tired and I'm barefooted freezing cold as I walk through fires A child born with no soul signifies my return from pure thought to put my killer's ashes in a urn Outside the realm of light, demons dance in preparation Weightless, only to be seen during incantation Feel my aura, just around death's corner Hands of liquid candlelit by a mourner (water) Surrounding me it startles me, cry to me Visions pushing me towards revenge and anger nothing's stopping me What about this Crow it follows wherever I go From a rooftop I see one of my killers in the window Tears dwell up in my eyes, turn to highs, blood's raining from the skies, as one of my murderers dies... rise
Chorus:
"The flesh is weak..." (Rise!) Rise! (repeat 4X)
I believe... I believe Yeah...
Yeah, I inhale the cold mist feeling lost Like I'm in a dark forest that's illuminated by my soul Like a Phoenix from the Earth watch me take flight The world's in color when I walk it's all in black and white I try to scream but no sound escapes, migraines I shapeshift, I exist, she doesn't remain Her name's etched in the walls of my nightmares And levitates and elevates like flights of stairs Second thoughts about karma but I can't cease Without revenge, I think I'll never rest in peace Blemishing, shaken like I'm off of heroin I'm burrowing deep to reverse death, remembering Now I rise like a zombie from the dirt I kill again Feeling no better than what I am here to avenge As we stand face to face you see death in my eyes I won't destroy another man, the flesh is weak... rise
Chorus: (variations)
Sometimes death ain't even strong enough to stop living spirit With our mind we call life into existence Worlds are thoughts that are burning in me Sometimes we come back
