Since the dawn of creation
Mankind has been hexed
Constantly torn by forces

Beyond comprehension
The endless struggle
Of pestilence and rapture


They will be heaven sent
Or hellbound

Each with equal intention

Bribing the subconscious

Waging war for control
Manipulation their ambition


From the womb we are mere targets
For earthly free radicals
Shifting shape as they see fit

To compensate for no escape

Steadfast with your convictions

Seek out that which brings obliteration
Utilize each with positive force
A taoist approach will mean harmony


Now among the enlightened
Rising above

Regardless of the challenge
Transitions with ease
What once destroyed the spirit

Is of no consequence

Falling back to the point

Of no return
Deceivingly simple
Focus, restrain the weakness

You have found a higher power

Pestilence and rapture

Battles within us
Seeking to destroy
The choice must be made now
