deus ex materia (flower merchant)

i been living here all my life
always knew that the world was cold
getting tired of waiting on God, but
only way i ever known

love on hiatus
gave it all to be the greatest
they say even the problems was fated
its only hard to see the gate
when youre locked in the waiting room

prayed to be my ladys groom
theyre grooming avatars on the dark side of the moon
theyre doing the will of the anti-human
but i cant stop feeling
im shooting my own crew
like a sergeant lost his whole platoon

i charted the stars
from the seat of a parked car
there was life on mars
all it needed was beats and bars

trials increasingly bizarre
when even angels turned arch
in the winter it thawed
and it was freezing in march

spiritual lessons
dressed in material possessions
clearly ill be getting what i want
and it aint just a Benz

erased all my friends
nothing left but an endless vacation destination
but i aint complaining
never lost my senses to sensations

now im the dictator
delivering orations from the bottom of a crater
wont engage in conversations that dont matter
waste my time youre labeled as a traitor

throw you to the gators like Mola Ram
im the scales of the gods homeworld, call me equator
youre in your training wheels in the lake of fire
need a deus ex materia to save ya

i wont sell for blood money like akeldama
already covered in it from head to toe
im dressed in fresh robes
theyre drenched in sweat cuz they know

they go to eternal death
crying 96 tears like revelation
but they aint even seen pain yet
i hate to be the one who said it
they kill the messenger
then later take credit for the message

and thats the way its always been, shit

not saying lifes been fair like Zack and Aerith
but im prepared to turn it back to the perfect Planet
activate my purpose
never late for service at the church i fabricated
save my girl cuz shes my flower merchant
