Arcane Justice

(album: Mental Knife - 2018)

To the predators at bay
I've got ways to make you pay
Lessons taught by peeling skin
And I love it when you

Beg for the time, I'm about to take
Like your rogue entitlement
Skin your sins away
Karma comes to say
Who will care anyway?

I was thinking that this time together
Might just cleanse your slate

You'll scream: Stop! Stop! Stop!
That's the irony

It's like déjà vu, right?
Are their faces resurfacing?
Do you see what they have to see?
There are remnants of ways you forced yourself
In the traces of everything you've touched

Your own weapon is
Ten more pieces to take
One at a time is a lot to accomplish but
I know that I'll get it done

You might call this Arcane Justice
I'll enforce it with my hands

Power coercion
Goes around, comes around
You can't escape it
You're gonna feel it
Own it

Beg for the limbs, I'm about to take
You have stolen innocence
Skin your sins away
Pliers help to say
This is what you deserve
You'll plead: Let this stop!
That's the irony
It's like déjà vu, right?
All the faces resurfacing
Do you see what they have to see
There are remnants of
Ways you force yourself
In the traces of everything and everyone you love
