Turbulence follows

Indulgence

So everywhere one goes

The other follows suit

I just do it for repentance

His treasured halls

His golden walls

His darkened shades of decadence

~~

There'll never be another life

Holding all the strife and pain that my people

And I

Have undergone

Beneath the surface lies

And trials

Damp and shaded, I'll repay him

For kingdoms defiled

~~

So watch me

Third eye staring

Warily you'll circle me

And my tool of mass manipulations

Puppeteering populations

Grasping harder on the handle

This is all for free

My back blackened

With searing animosity

~~

And for freedom I'll break

Your precious allies

Your loosened loyalties

With a single commanding voice

It's your choice

Relinquish your position is all I ask

Tasks made more difficult by your fragilities

~~

Pharaoh, I know

You've been around for show

Let me lay down a different history

My unrevealed mystery

With a golden needle poised in hate

Your alliances serve as nothing to me

Excepy my vengeful bait

~~

I'll call down the gods themselves in their glory

With all my righteous fury

Breaking and making the path of destruction

Resurrection is no excuse

All the masters with their puzzling shadows

How can they refuse

My glowing offer, my promise

Of never-ending playtime

~~

So tell me differently

Your cold darkness enveloping lives

While I seek to rob the tombs of time during the long hours

Turning back the clock to take back what's ours

Destroying a past made in fear

Pharaoh, fight me no more

It's too hard

Your end is growing near

With every solitary draw

Of the card...
