Decolonizer

(album: Chaosmos - 2022)

A cold decision made with derision
Collectively, appropriation of demise
Of rats and of ruin, depleted
Collapse unfolds before our eyes
We have exploited every contingency
The rape of a salted earth
Given enough time, this was inevitable

Corruption clandestine
A furtive intent
A vision in decline

Scraped and scoured, there's nothing left but bone
Gnawed to dust and ground with the marrow
Exploited every possibility
Tilled the soil to find only death below
Cleaved by a primordial dissonance
A greater good undone by the covetous

Corruption clandestine
A furtive intent
A vision in decline

Gazing upon all of our works in despair
For our past tethered to us like a leech
As the onset of time marches on
Despite all our greatest futile efforts

Unchecked reproduction at an exponential, exponential rate
Self imposed conspiracy against the human, against the human race
Finally a chance to see the writing on the, writing on the wall
Do we choose to save ourselves or decolonize

Do we choose to save ourselves or decolonize, once and for all

The stars breathe a sigh of relief as our collective
Consciousness decides the path of our continued
Existence naught, we've reached a consensus
The apotheosis of nullity led to the
Divinization of unbeing, cult of demise
Lessen ourselves from the burden, so gratefully
A joyous return to the void

The only recompense
For the damage we have wrought
The penitential whip

The stars breathe a sigh of relief as our collective
Consciousness decides the path of our continued
Existence naught, we've reached a consensus
The apotheosis of nullity led to the
Divinization of unbeing, cult of demise
Lessen ourselves from the burden, so gratefully
A joyous return to the void

The only recompense
For the damage we have wrought
The penitential whip

Burn out the scars collected through centuries
Constant admission of guilt through brutality
We'll do it again, compulsively conquer
A pox on this earth, a stain never to be erased

At the highest pitch of an infinite longing in rapturous form
Burgeoning forth a bleak interminable viscosity of prebiotic pullulation
Evacuate all traces of humate cognate in favor the chthonic
Cut short the perpetual timeline, decolonize
