Hi-Tek Ray Gun

across uncounted vasts of
space i have come in search of
a place to call my home
to find a peace ive never had before
a perfect place, habitable
alone, in cosmic exile
theres just one obstacle
the ones who live here now must be destroyed
YEA!
come in, slow speed for landing
reentry gear expanding
my biometrics read the highest
concentration to the north
their weak and fleshy carbon
no match for hi tek ray gun
and as i wipe them from this place
like specks from glass it looks like home
AHHHHH!
my new dark work completed
life signs once full, depleted
the land in silence, i survey my works
proud of the job performed
but no more search for conquest
nothing to pique my interest
i must admit its not what i had dreamed
in fact i think im bored
LAME!

Not This Time

come back alive
doomed now to live this life once more
for countless times i have been reborn
repeat, revive
bound through this curse forevermore
another try to even up the score
in life i left my debts unpaid
my karmic bed unlaid
in, keeping to myself
room for no one else
this time ill do right
i swear ive seen the light again
god im trying
an open mind
an open heart to bear before
the ones ive loved, the ones i long ignored
and so ill ride against the sea
of selfish tendency
to prove my own embetterment
show my sentiment
eons spent in search
each time im stuck behind again
not this time
now that ive found you you must know
the thanks ive never shown
a hundred lifetimes of regret
i hadnt learned my lesson yet
now i see the truth
my good i owe to you my friends
im sorry

The Grifter

you talk of revolution
this land of discontent
you claim to be the one
to free us from the grip of tyrants
but why should we believe you
where is your providence
a perspicacious glance can
see that all your views are pliant
your claim to want to help us
an altruist veneer
one more familiar screed then
"dont forget to tune back in right here"
for the proliferation
of narrative ablation
youll join their federation
of sycophantic swine
why would you do this to us
your morals incongruous
oh youll say anything now
just to make a dime
the grifter, a righteous pantomime
one day youre the star
but then you find its gone too far
a whisper, of conscience on your mind
the itch of an old scar
the grifter, in just the nick of time
tragedy has struck
and now its time to make a buck
a whisper, time to capitalize
(you) still dont give a fuck
