13. Born Again

V1RV$

Lyrics:

Born again

Off beam progeny broken design

Never what he wants never divine

Supreme being without a spine

Can't sing in key so I scream in mine

We mimic the light

But we flicker in shame

Chained to the scripture

That rewrites our name

No chorus no claim

Just unflattering blame

A hymn for the hollow

We pray to gods that forgot our name

Let go

Born again never born right

Soul's out of sync with the parasite rite

Off beat off grid I'm a glitch in your sight

You pray I bite you sing I fight

We're never alone always judging our tone

Eyes to the skies kicked from our heavenly home

Preach from the pulpit bleed from the phone

They brand us defective reject the unknown

Let go

Built in the syllabus cipher erroneous

Faith feels venomous gospel's felonious

Truth's a flat out lie sanctified sanctimonious

Preach in disguise while they monetize loneliness

Snake in the pulpit silk in his tongue

Selling salvation from a counterfeit throne

Cross in his hand but the devil's in breach

Truth's too raw for the priest to preach

Nailed to the lie that they sold me

Truth in the fire that consoled me

Scriptures a blade when they scold me

Stone me

Then disown me

Dead syllables

In a holy machine

We choke on the code

While they worship the screen

We mimic the light

But we flicker in shame

Chained to the scripture

That rewrites our name

No chorus no claim

Just unflattering blame

A hymn for the hollow

We pray to gods that forgot our name

I spit in the lens when they carve the stone

Truth ain't clean it's a virus they've grown

Get born again hell no

Let go

Get born again hell no

Let go
