A battle is raging, deep within my mind A look at my reflection, nothing there, its blank Amid the smoke and fire, incense burning bright I commence this ritual, for Tezcatlipoca to arrive Bring me fire, to burn copal and light this night Pierce my flesh, cut deep enough to bleed and pour, I bleed in his name I feel a burn around my chest through my neck I cannot breathe You have chosen me amongst beast another man, This smoke invokes your flame Shouting, screaming, warriors witness true rituals at hand Praising, gazing, Ome Acatl you have them at your command I feel an essence watching, finally possessed my soul The voice inside my head that tells me, do as your told "Kill Ce Acatl and conquer the lands of old Quetzalcoatl reign will end as its foretold" Bring me fire, copal to burn and light this path Pierce my flesh, cut deep enough to bleed and pour, Leaving trails of blood behind Marching, pounding the war drum, shells shaking that lead the way Fear, and wonder he leads through the ruins left in smoke Remnants that call your name Singing, leading, war chants echo through a forbidden land A vision, illusion, is this reality a delusion in my mind? Corrupting, possessing, imprisoning my mind Distorting, Reflecting, this new way of life Blinding, contrasting what's inside my eyes Leaving me to wonder is this a lucid demise I begin to feel those marching looking at me Whispering through the lines questioning my sanity Feeling the suns rays engulfing my soul This is reality or deceit by the gods? Bring me fire, to burn copal and light this night Pierce my flesh, cut deep enough to bleed and pour, I bleed in his name Marching, pounding the war drum, shells shaking that lead the way Fear, and wonder he leads through the ruins left in smoke Remnants that call your name Shouting, screaming, warriors witness true rituals at hand A vision, illusion, is this reality a delusion in my mind? Who is controlling my soul and my mind? A ancient god, or a spirit cloaked in black A distorted reflection of my future, present and past Leaving me to wonder is this a lucid demise I begin to feel those marching looking at me Whispering through the lines questioning my sanity Feeling the suns rays engulfing my soul This is reality or deceit by the gods?
