about

Victory is not won by saints, and don't delude yourself that it will be kid. You gotta get your hands dirty, if you wanna succeed. Don't let those who sit on thrones of gold determine your infallibility due to your entrenchment in nature. We are all prodigies of disaster, and masters of paradox. We have the potential to succeed, if we just stop being branded by our failures.

A remastered single from my album Death Of An Angel, which is released through my independent music collective The Infidel Netwerk. Featuring music recorded between 2010-2011, this album is the third and final album in the Shadowalker trilogy, a series of albums I wrote between 2007-2011.

Released through The Infidel Netwerk musician, artist, and philosopher collective:

lyrics

Sages and saviors
They're all charlton's behaviors
Name's given
To the deceptions
The grand spell
Cast over us all
A final inception
Your shattered reflection
The shadow has been
Spun right into your soul
Like a spider creeping
Out of control
Our hopes are sleeping
Not like they were ever real

We all look for compassion in this broken world
But we only see obsession
There is nothing left to find

We have it in ourselves
To call upon a world
outside of our own
But we have been lied to

A material machine made existence
A tragedy,
Greed reflecting our fallen state,
For inside of us all,
Is the potential to create,
WITHOUT GOLD! WITHOUT HATE!

We could be whole, we could be divine,
We could cherish and make whatevers in our mind
There is potential there is so much more
Then what’s in front of our gilded eyes.

Attempt to brand us by our failures
But then liberate us by our desires
That's the way of our machine
Can we ever be forgiven?
Is to always purchase our soul's apathy away
What do you really think you know about
Our designated direction of consumption

Will we let ourselves be consumed by these mind games
That we half play on ourselves in a state of apathy and disdain
If we continue at this place we'll never find a solution
Unless we attempt to best ourselves there'll be no resolution
And I'm not pointing no fingers, I don't got no answers
But I know that there is a solution if we just open our eyes
