Peacekeeper


Dark Anubian princess

Daughter of the Nile

You ran from the process

Before you could be led down the isle


You was chosen for this role

To be the peacekeeper of the universe

To take the title as a whole

Chosen to endure this curse


Why do you hide from destiny

Why do you run from yourself

On the point of insanity

You run from your own wealth


You throw down your own crown

And turn away from your own alter

You run from your own town

Each step is steady you never falter


With the quickness of a serpents tongue

You would throw all of it away

Just to breathe with your own lung

Inside of a hole you would rather stay


Instead of becoming this fate

You would rather run

Before the clock strikes too late

And your holding a shaking gun


If you stay you could do great things

You could become stronger inside

So flap your obsidian wings

And let all the anger subside


Embrace the cleansing rain

Become one with who you are

To trust outside of the pain

And rise up like a shining star


You dont have to hold onto the pain

You can let all of that go

Wash it all off in this rain

And like a butterfly you can grow
