lyrics

Will I ever be something more than who I am?
Full of disdain, a shell of a man. Abandoned.
Will I ever matter more than matter in motion?
More than matter in motion, I know it. I know it.
You tell me we are given the burden of being so imperfect
Created for a single purpose, nothing more than servants
No. I have given myself a purpose and meaning.
I can't accept the fact that you won't admit that we're not insignificant
We can affect our surroundings
Blood, sweat, tears. I've given everything and still feel empty.
Another year goes by and I want more from life
More than to suffer. Asking will I-

Will I find my way?
Am I a victim of a fate determined? I wanted so much more and I'm still uncertain.
Can I create change?
We can change this. Blind, but omniscient. This is just one experience.

This is just one experience.

I want to give up (I want to give up).
I can't stop giving a fuck,
I just have not given enough.
Suffer, suffer, it makes you stronger.

Suffer.
It will make you stronger.
Shine the sun.
I shine the sun, we all do.

The truth is I'm scared. What if I never make it or make something of myself?
What does it mean to be? To be happy?
Is this all that there is for me?
Transcend, transcend objective reality. There's more than you and me.
Transcend, transcend objective reality. We're more than you and me.

I want more. To change my future and be more than my past.
I've seen the value in this. I fucking get it.
I want to be what I know that I should be.

Will I find my way?
Am I a victim of a fate determined? I wanted so much more and I'm still uncertain.
Can I create change?
We can change this. Blind, but omniscient. This is just one experience.

When my consciousness leaves and my body rots,
Omniscient, I still see.
I am god.
We all are.

We all are.
