Immortals

Screaming at night in the depths of frustration

Our current state lets us live to barely survive

For the pointless existence of proliferation

Devoid of essence and meaning to life

The road mapped out, is it all providence?

If born to fail, then effort is futile

You must abandon such bullshit convictions

Defy the rules and deep held beliefs

At the brink of defeat, don't aim at your face

Thoughts turn to actions, don't poison your mind

Lower the barrel or shoot at the sky

Don't choose the grave or be remembered by grief

We are at the point where our heroes are dying

Time runs out, so choose your own path

A life of honor or murder or wealth

So change this world or burn it to hell

Destiny is on your hands and your shoulders

To shape and mold how life unfolds

The path is laid with sharp stones and nails

For you to try and yet still fail

Pick up the pieces and carry your soul

A legacy beyond certain death

Embrace failure but not defeat to become

Immortals!

Undying and deathless, eternal our goal.

We write this rhyme but we know it'll be forgotten

This art is worthless, in the presence of titans

We'll die like martyrs, but our craft will endure

Don't heed these words, for we thrive in defeat

A self-reminder not to choose an early grave

We have no wealth, we don't mean to deceive

So rise in flames undeterred by defeat
