1. Spite 4:18
Stand opposed to common sense and reason, clinging to your fantasy
Wrapped within your manufactured fiction, lost within a fallacy
Hold onto your fanciful illusion, turn your back on common sense
Disregard the peril that surrounds you, heedless of the consequence

Beyond this fragile mind
Lies the truth you've left behind
Long before your life subsides
All your insights will revise

Blind yourself to everything around you, feed upon your ignorance
Trapped within your pitiful delusions, shrouded by your arrogance
Deny the truth that seeks to overtake you as you cling upon deceit
Hide yourself from facts that overwhelm you, see your fiction, face defeat

Now the scales have fallen from your vision, see the world through different eyes
Truth is now a refuge that surrounds you, see beyond deceit and through the lies
Freedom from your self-induced delusion, offered up a different view
Turn your thoughts to all that stands before as you see the world anew

2. Ascent 3:33
As a darkened cloud of dread surrounds you
You feel your heart rack your chest with fear
Your mind conjures unrelenting horrors
As you feel your end is drawing near

Your mind resides inside a void of sorrow
Your soul cries out in vain
Your flesh has now become like a prison
Your heart will break as this strife devours you

In time you will learn to tame the darkness
You will learn to live beyond this pain
Time will mend your broken bones and sinews
Bringing life to that which you had lost

Fear not for I've come to resurrect you
Follow me now to a new existence
Look deep inside, feel the strength within you
See the light that shines on the horizon

3. Cognitive Dysphoria 5:16
Protest, stand up to tyranny, justice for the oppressed
Crusade against all the violence, protect the innocent

Fall in line, dine on the lies they spread, blinded by an ideal
Demonize, criticize, taught to despise the ones who don't share in your views
Turmoil, hatred and violence, freedom becomes your disguise
Hypnotized, paralyzed, lead by a poisoned mind, captive through all your fears

Wrapped in delusions drowned in deceit
You're surrounded by hypocrisy
Your perceptions skewed to a fault
Will this madness grind to a halt

Destroy, tear down society, with no yearning for peace
Madness, utter insanity seeping throughout the streets
Propagate anarchy, wretched profanity spreads just like a disease
Hatred, anger and enmity, strike down your enemies

4. Dirge 4:46
I've been broken, left with scarcely more than nothing
I am damaged, a spectre of my former self
I am empty, hollow shell of who I once was
I am nothing, can I move beyond this pain

Sorrow shrouding my mind
Fear and doubt torment me
Search for meaning inside
Emptiness surrounds me
Aimless, struggle to find
Purpose and direction
Hollow shell of a man
Hopelessness consumes me

Stand up warrior, hold your ground against affliction
Stand firm rooted, in this storm that comes to test you
Stay strong, fearless, in these times of tribulation
Steadfast you will learn to rise above the darkness

Stand up and you will find
Purpose and direction
Focus, settle your mind
You will find protection
Brace for troubles to come
Darkness may assail you
You will weather the storm
Courage will avail you

I am stronger, I will weather all misfortune
I am braced for all the strife that comes my way
I'll not tremble when a storm appears to test me
I will not bend when misfortune seeks to break me

5. Contempt 5:07
As this darkness seeks to wrap itself around you
As the anger rises slowly from within
Malice clouds your mind, release your fateful nature
Fury takes control, a poison to your soul

Look far beyond these darkened times plaguing your mind
Look deep inside and you will find some other way

Resist the urge to lash out blindly in your fury
Do not succumb to the violence deep within
Deny the need to reap your petty vengeance
Refuse to be a martyr to your rage

Look far beyond these darkened times plaguing your mind
Look deep inside and you will find a better way

Now, please end this pain, release me from this torment
I cannot exist within this spite filled contempt

Rise above this need for violent retribution
Consecrate your thoughts from animosity
See beyond this earthly strife and torment
Cleanse your mind from all impurity

6. Triumph Through Adversity 4:06
Bestow upon me the wisdom to know which war to wage
Grant to me the knowledge to know when to stand my ground
Entrust me with discretion to know when to choose my battles
Bless me with the courage to stand tall against the horde

I will brace myself against this crushing tide, I will stoke this raging inner fire
I have set my sights on those who dare, to stand opposed to that which I esteem
I will prevail against adversity, I will not succumb to apathy
I am one with all I hear and see, I control my fate and destiny

Weathering the chaos that threatens to tear me down
Standing in defiance of drama that seeks to dominate
With the will to conquer I will designate my path
Stoic in this turmoil not a captive to my wrath

7. Enslaved By Fate 3:43
Fall upon your knees as you feel the master's whip
Lashing at your back, brining forth your blood
Pain consumes your flesh as you strike the ground
Agony ensues, Pharaoh's will be done

Crushed within the clutches of your pain and desolation
Slave unto the fate of a dreadful sick creation

Forcibly removed from the life that you once lived
Freedom ripped away, detained against your will
Taken for the use of other's wants and needs
Life is stripped away by other people's greed

Loss of independence, exist to bend the knee
Maligned subjugation, thrall of enmity

Captive to the forces that consume your soul
Slave unto your vices, slowly lose control
Substance and desire beguile a fragile mind
Servant to your greed unto your doom inclined

8. All Flesh Must Die 4:02
Shed this rotting skin, strip off the disease
Excise this depraved and corrupted flesh
Sever from yourself the filth in which you thrive
Amputate this blight, your vile and putrid life

Your twisted mind lives inside
A fantasy, a life defiled
Look deep inside, heed the cry
Of emptiness, of hope deprived

Cleanse your filthy soul, wash away the bile
Turn from callousness that leaves your life defiled
Sickened by a life that's twisted by a lie
There will come a time when all your flesh must die

Your twisted mind lives inside
A fantasy, a hope defiled
Look deep inside, heed the cry
Of emptiness, a life denied

Separate yourself from vile infirmities
Sterilize your mind, destroy impurity
Severed from the plague that's poisoning your soul
Washed away the blight that sought to take control
