lyrics

All this time
We basked in freedom
Bound by the chains of choice or god
Look into the eyes of the enslaved
Whose smiles do not deceive

Those who strive for change are afraid of the present
Unable to conform
Their lives, miserable

Those who wish for a static dystopia
With hands that cannot shape paradise
Their minds, perished

Those who strive for change are afraid of the present
Unable to conform

God is an excuse for scientific ignorance

I've conquered continents and sundered ocean depths
My mind's obsidian and you're it's greatest threat

God is an excuse for scientific ignorance
A source of solace for the unwavering
You believe in a greater power

Those who strive for change are afraid of the present
Unable to conform, unable to conform

An authority for the adamant
You celebrate your answers because you are terrified
Terrified that your answers make you god

Supreme Truth

I was quickly overwhelmed the moment I listened to "Interlude." Oriental atmosphere reminiscent of Egypt is very intertwined through all. Supreme Truth has something in common with Linkin Park's Meteora. Catsfist

Ontogenesis reminds me of the old days before Entities had vocals. I love the vocals though. Christopher Chambers
