libretto:
I tore the heavens from their sleep,
Drank the sun and let it weep.
No crown remains that isn’t mine,
No voice exists beyond my spine.

Chains were a rhythm - I turned them to art.
Every scream a pulse in my heart.

Dominion unbound - I am the roar,
The pulse that shakes the temple’s core!
Every sin now sings for me,
Unholy, unchained - divinity!


My rage is a hymn, my scars are flame,
I crowned the stars and forgot their names.
No gods remain - they fled my song,
Now silence kneels, where it belonged.


Every wall I crushed was holy,
Every truth I burned was mine.


Dominion unbound - this is my law!
The chains are gone, but I want more.
The throne trembles beneath my feet 
And the world becomes my heartbeat!

Dominion Unbound

// TRANSMISSION: NEX_REQUIEM_SIGNAL //
The fire’s awake again.
Beneath the city, he found what the gods chose to forget.

They called it mercy.
He calls it a grave.

“I Came To End What The World Ignored.”

A signal from the dark below Nex Capitalis -
the beginning of the storm.

[The Cycle Begins soon...]
---------------------------
lyrics:
Red lights pulse like veins in the stone.
Every flicker whispers, “Keep your head down.”
But I don’t crawl anymore 
I walk upright through hell’s arteries.

Footsteps echo in someone else’s crime,
children’s shoes left behind like dime.
Posters peeling, faces gone,
only they can sell this lie!

Their order built temples out of pain,
called them markets, called it gain.
I count the names on the walls in dust
each one hums, “Remember us.”

Floor’s still wet with names erased,
numbers, where faces used to be.
I hear chains sing lullabies 
I hear ghosts that never learned to rest.

Welcome to the Bloodlight Corridor!
Every pulse a sin, every breath a war!
If mercy’s dead, then I’m the proof 
I drag thunder through the roof!
Every scream, every scar, every locked door!
You made mercy a weapon,
now mercy’s got a war!
I came to end what the world ignored!

Chains hum hymns to broken bones,
guards wear halos made of phones.
They film the pain, they sell the faith
I walk in slow, I unlearn grace.

Fluorescent blood across my sleeve,
each drop another name to grieve.
You wanted silence? Here’s your sound 
I speak in thunder underground.

Rooms still smell like burnt hope.
Toys melted into the floor.
Their sermons play on loop,
voices of faith turned into rot.

Welcome to the Bloodlight Corridor!
Every step burns, every soul’s a score!
You called it order 
I call it war!
I came to end what the world ignored!

The corridor hums like it knows my sin
but I’m not leaving till the lights go dim.


I Came To End, What The World Ignored

lyrics:
They wrote their lessons on my skin,
said scars make better students.
I learned to count in bruises,
to pray with my jaw clenched.

They fed me with brusies
and called it discipline.
But every hurt has grammar,
and I speak it fluently now.


Pain was the only language they let me speak,
so I carved my answers in the walls.
Each word bled a little,
but at least it was mine.

They said emotion was weakness.
Then why does my fury sound so alive?


I keep a dictionary of every scream,
a syntax built from survival.
Each shiver is punctuation,
each breath a full stop they couldn’t erase.

They built obedience out of fear,
but fear learned my face.
Now it follows my tone,
afraid I’ll start reciting.


Don’t tell me to forgive.
I still remember the taste of  lessons.
Don’t tell me to forget.
I wrote my story in veins and vowels.


Pain was the only language they let me speak,
and I turned it into thunder.
Every scar is a verse now
and I never run out of lines.

Pain Was the Only Language They Let Me Speak

The Invocation

lyrics:
Look at you, man, smiling in your suit,
holding your daddy’s wallet like it’s some kind of virtue.
Meanwhile I’m scraping coins from the floor
just to buy a breakfast I won’t finish.
Do you ever get tired
of winning games you never played?
Must be nice to breathe without guilt,
to sleep without a voice screaming your name.


I’m not jealous.
I’m not bitter.
I’m just exhausted
from pretending life is fair.


So congratulations, you’re thriving.
I’m surviving off caffeine and panic attacks.
You’re glowing; I’m breaking.
You’re celebrating; I’m barely intact.
I clap for you with shaking hands,
a standing ovation for another man’s luck.
Congratulations, you’re thriving.
Meanwhile, I’m trying not to give up.

The world tells me “hustle harder,”
like I didn’t bleed for every step I made.
Like I wasn’t born halfway buried,
digging upward while you walked across a velvet parade.
Smile for the camera 
that’s what they told me.
But cameras lie
and the truth is lonely.
All I’ve got are empty rooms
and a heart that forgot how to beat gently.


And every time I fall apart,
they tell me it builds character.
Yeah, well…
maybe I’m tired of character.


So congratulations, you’re thriving.
I’m drowning in bills and broken trust.
You’re rising; I’m sliding.
You’re polished gold; I’m gathering dust.
Keep shining on your perfect hill
while I stay stuck in all my stuck.
Congratulations, you’re thriving.
I’m just… trying not to self-destruct.


I’m not asking for your pity 
God, keep it.
Just wondering what life feels like
when it doesn’t choke you for fun.


Congratulations, you’re thriving.
I mean it, really, it’s inspiring.
I’ll raise a glass
to all the people built from silver spoons.
While I fix myself in darkened rooms.
Congratulations, you’re thriving.
I’m still here.
Barely.
Trying

Congratulations, You’re Thriving

Lyrics:
Affection is inefficient.
Emotion is noise.
Strength endures.
Everything else is excess.

I removed the weakness first,
That’s how progress starts.
Cut the tremor from the hand,
Cut the doubt out of the heart.

Love delays the final step,
Mercy fractures will.
You don’t build a future clean
Letting feelings interfere.

They ask why I never bend,
Why I never hesitate.
Because hesitation kills
What precision learns to save.

No fear.
No guilt.
No wasted motion.

A perfect world
Doesn’t feel.
A perfect world
Is forged in steel.

No affection.
No decay.
Only strength
Gets to stay.

I don’t raise my voice to rule,
I lower entropy.
Chaos is a human flaw,
Order is divinity.

You call cruelty what I call math,
You call loss what I call gain.
If one must fall so ten stand tall,
That’s not evil, that’s restraint.

Pain is just a signal lag,
Emotion is a leak.
I closed the system years ago
When I learned to never speak.

If love made worlds survive,
They would not need me.
If humans were enough,
They would not break so easily.

A perfect world
Stands alone.
Unshaped by bone.

No affection.
No regret.
Strength decides
Who’s left.

You call me a monster
Because you still feel.
That’s why you’ll lose
In a perfect world.

Perfect World

Lyrics:
Count us out.
Write us off.
You already made us this.

We were quiet, we were patient,
Played along with your salvation.
Stayed invisible on command,
Still you crushed us where we stand.

We clocked in, we shut our mouths,
Watched you build your holy house.
Every rule was built to bend
Just enough to break our necks.

You erased us line by line,
Now we live outside your sight.

We are ghosts, you can’t track us.
We are monsters, you made us.
We are dead men walking free,
Nothing left but honesty.

We are ghosts, off the grid.
We are monsters, unforgiven.
We are dead men, can’t be bought,
Standing up no matter what.

You live clean above the dirt,
Never felt the system hurt.
We learned pain in real time,
While you called it “by design.”

You say order, we say cage,
You say peace, we say delayed.
If survival is a crime,
Then arrest us all tonight.

You can’t scare the ones who died
The moment you denied their lives.
If this world needs blood to run,
Then choke on what you’ve done.

We are ghosts, stay alert.
We are monsters, feel it hurt.
We are dead men walking now,
Say our names or burn it down.

We are ghosts, we don’t kneel.
We are monsters, this is real.
We are dead men, nothing to lose,
This is war, we choose to move.

You should’ve been afraid
When we stopped asking to be seen.

WE ARE GHOSTS

Lyrics:
I don’t wake up whole.
I assemble myself.

I breathe when the night gets loud,
Remind myself there’s still something now.
Fix what I can, keep people fed,
Patch the cracks they pretend aren’t there.

I water plants in broken streets,
Hold doors open, say “excuse me.”
I try real hard to stay the man
Who believes this world can still be held in hands.

But something in me listens
For the sound of boots.

I’m trying to keep life alive.

I’m built for when it dies.

I’m the fault line running through,
I don’t choose, I split in two.

When the system bares its teeth,
Something else wakes up in me.
Hands stop shaking, heart goes flat,
I don’t feel guilt, I calculate.

I know where to hit, how much it takes,
How fast a threat turns into space.
You call it loss of self-control,
I call it doing what keeps control.

He’s not gone.

He’s waiting.

I don’t want this.
I just want quiet.

Quiet doesn’t survive.

There has to be another way.

There was.
They killed it.

I try to keep life alive,
I swear I do, I try.
But when the system fights back hard,
Something else takes the wheel inside.

I’m the chaos you designed,
Every line you crossed is mine.
I don’t flip, I was the switch
You built for moments just like this.

If I sound empty
It’s because someone had to be.

When the Switch Flips

fractured does not mean broken... 
its means becoming..

These are not for charts, this is not for fame. This is for the one who finds it and dreams with it. Even if only a single soul ever listens, the story will live.

WE ARE GHOSTS
