REIGN
Reign of Desolation: A Symphony of Broken Kingdoms
Lyrics
Ok, once upon a Time in 2006
Reflecting on the year 2006 as a starting point in life
My mom brought me in the world in a house full of tricks
Entering a world filled with deceit or deception
And growing up I really thought that I was living in bliss
Believed life was happy until it drastically changed
Until it flipped beamed on me and then hit a full split
Experiencing a sudden and complete change in circumstances
My brother really was the one who really got me in this
Brother introduced him to influential figures or influences
He showed me on my favorite rappers told me copy of this
Encouraged to emulate favorite rappers
He showed me all my favorite shows only when I was six
Introduced to preferred entertainment at a young age
Then, later told me on my friends in action, follow a script
Later influenced by friends to follow a predetermined path
And I was taught the thicker, the skin the hollower tip
Advised that resilience is essential but emptiness follows
So aim it right cock the poll and let it off of the strip
Metaphorically instructed on using words as weapons
I'd rather stick just to myself and let the followers miss
Prefer solitude to superficial connections
Then let the followers fall up up in the bottomless pit
Choosing to avoid the consequences of blind conformity
And I don't really talk about this
Keeping silent about a particular experience
But when I give thought about this
Contemplating a significant event or circumstance
It just cannot be tamed
Feeling untamed or beyond control
No, I cannot put a frame over my
Resisting confinement or restriction of identity
Over my picture
Refusing to change or adapt for others' expectations
No, I cannot switch up
Desiring to express thoughts in order to free the mind
I need to release all these thoughts that in my mental
Seeking someone to share feelings and thoughts with
I need someone to talk to
Yearning for a responsive listener
Need someone to respond to
Experiencing emotionally harmful thoughts
All of these feelings going through my mind it's harmful
Feeling haunted by persistent emotions
It's haunting me all day and night, all in despite
Suffering despite persistent emotional struggles
And I hate it when I feel all of these chills go to my spine
Disliking physical sensations triggered by emotions
And it only makes me feel alive when I want to die
Finding a sense of vitality in adverse situations
All alone no one's on my side but it's no surprise
Perceiving isolation despite adversity being expected
Cold as ice left me out to dry
Feeling abandoned and betrayed
What will you decide?
Questioning others' decisions or actions
Only then will it come to time when you start to lie saying
Expecting lies or deceit from others
I only want it all for him
Desiring success or accomplishment for someone else
I wish that I could talk to him
Wishing for communication with a specific person
And ask him what he did this
Questioning someone's actions or choices
I wish that I can call to him
Longing for contact with a specific individual
And ask him who has god to him
Questioning someone's beliefs or influences
I wish that I could follow him and tell him he's my favorite
Admiration for an influential figure despite others' perceptions
But really all these dumbass dick riding niggas just want to fantasize
Disdain for those who blindly idolize without understanding
Then, when I have my resurrection, they want me crucified
Being adored but ultimately betrayed or abandoned
The only three words I can give them before I die
Offering wisdom or truth before potential downfall
Is real eyes realize real lies (yeah)
Emphasizing the importance of seeing through deception
One, Two, Three to the Four of the Five
Counting individuals, questioning their survival
How many of my people are still alive?
Comparing situations between different groups
The grass is greener on the other side I hope
Hoping for a better situation despite uncertainty
Still Rains, but either way, it shines I know
Acknowledging challenges but affirming resilience
One, Two, Three to the Four of the Five
Repeating the inquiry about survival
How many of my people are still alive?
Continuing comparison between different groups
The grass is greener on the other side I hope
Reiterating hope despite uncertainty
Still Rains, but either way, it shines I know
Acknowledging challenges while affirming resilience
(I Know)
Reaffirming certainty despite challenges
(I Know)
Reiterating certainty despite challenges</
