Nice To Meet Me - Zack Hemsey

A sky red from the blood

Rose cheeks dull from the mud

Hands worn through from the sludge

A self no longer begrudged

And murder is a potion of love

Sacrifice devotion thereof

And he without sin never was

Now a changing of the guard has begun

A kingdom that belies the internal

Is a prison of the mind that's infernal

And eternal is the lie turned plague

So I've dug this grave so my truth won't fade

I feel the war paint on my face

I feel the ground tremble and quake

I feel my heart sync to the pace

That these war drums make

I feel alive and awake

And all I see is war path ahead of me

Each and every step I welcome readily

And if my lack of fear bring the death of me

Let the spirits of my ancestors envelop me

So know this is that armageddon coming

A flood that goes beyond the refuge high upon the summit

A sun become hole black hold on consumption

Spun inside itself into a beacon that has summoned

That creature of the deep that

Leaves a pit inside your stomach

That rumbling beneath that bodes arrival from above and

That nature of the beast that feeds upon the

Will to numb it

That monster brought the seed of life

Well now I have become it

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

A self once masked by these stains

That filth washed out with the rain

When I'm done only thing that remains

Is a tombstone etched with my name

Look into a face that has changed

Recognize the corpse in that grave

Resurrect what's lost can be saved

I am now free once slave

And I am not a part of a game

I am not a moth to a flame

I am both man and brigade

I won't be denied or restrained

I am what the weak can't obtain

I am what survives if it's slain

I am rest in peace if you aim

No I am not built of the same

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

Meet me

Behold a pale horse in my gaze

High upon it death in a rage

He said he had the truth that I crave

Then my sword through his chest I gave

Ain't no one command I behave

Never put my faith in plans best laid

And I don't follow rules that you made

I think it's time I set this whole b**ch ablaze

On the precipice of slaughter is the Lord

Angels and those demons come together with a 'cause

And I don't think you really know the meaning of a storm

Let this serve a lesson on the essence of reform

Hatred without focus make the eager man fall

Violence without purpose make the mighty man small

Vengeance without mercy leave the noble man flawed

And insurrection mounts behind those battle lines drawn

But future is beholden to the present moment cast

And prudence don't repeat the futile habits of the past

And courage is to he that sheds his skeletons as last

These trains of thought now heading

Toward a devastating crash

Bloodshed to that order like a flower to a thorn

Beauty know perfection like

A child know the law

And I advise you heed these words

Enlightened and forewarned

Truth in what you are an oath of

Life to which I've sworn

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

And I feel like I've got a gun

Like I've been changed more ways than one

And this whole world has just begun

And it's so nice to meet me

Meet me
