I am the physical manifestation of history's deadliest virus I am a danger to the world in the absence of being violent I'm the embodiment of a killer though my symptoms lay in silence An unintended assassin actively practicing defiance Inner hope didn't fully die yet, self-hate on a steady diet While I exist, insist on a bucket list of things that I haven't tried yet On the outside deadly quiet, while my insides are plotting a riot A seemingly normal individual with the influence of a giant I strive to avoid the weaponization of my worst inadequacies That radicalize the imperfections of my health and humanity Ostracized, dehumanized, estranged from society Separated and divided from my beloved family My dignity stripped away from me unknowingly, unwittingly Subject to the judgement of public idiocy Unwell in my inner shell as hell freezes over me As my interior and exterior agree to disagree I'm already dead, at least in my head I've done what I've done, said what I've said Faced all my fears, shed all my tears Feels like it's near, the last of my years Made my bed and I lie in it Built my coffin to die in it That was my life and I tried to live it God's plan already decided it Now I'm the Great Infector, a modern-day leper Aging at an incredible rate - way more salt than pepper I'm like an invalid - don't know what I did to deserve this punishment Can't savor the days when I was in favor - they already came and went Living with the stigma that I'm just an enigma They can't fix me statistically, this isn't six sigma And now I'm treated hyper critically, ballistically different They can't wait to get away from me, the weight has drastically shifted They feel the urge to purge me from the verge of existence And I don't have the courage to circumvent their persistence They urgently surge away from me, keeping their distance And the intention of their aggression makes it feel like something's missing I'm fine - not fine, sorry - not sorry, completely contradictory Self-loathing ongoing as the world's closing in on me As people go on with their lives - I'm writhing in misery God's plan but I don't understand what He's got in store for me I'm already dead, at least in my head I've done what I've done, said what I've said Faced all my fears, shed all my tears Feels like it's near, the last of my years Made my bed and I lie in it Built my coffin to die in it That was my life and I tried to live it God's plan already decided it If everything's decided, predetermined, and planned We need to practice the virtue of patience to see where we land God - omnipotent virtuoso, created woman and man It's so far removed from what we can do to comprehend or understand That's why it feels like we're in a free fall, but we're in the palm of his hand Like a misdirected mission - a misled decision An act of indignation in a war of attrition Don't say you're a Christian, if you don't practice contrition And don't specify conditions that dictate the terms that define how the Savior is risen Just cause you know that you will be forgiven The reason's within, so let the season begin Create a state to erase the hate, the slate should be free from sin And that's my humble opinion, and it's your choice not to listen You have the right to put up a fight despite the insight you're given In light of the dream that you're living An unintended sense of entitlement can't be forgiven That's why crazy I'm driven, as the clock remains ticking Grains of sand in the hourglass devoured fast Till your future morphs into your past I'm already dead, at least in my head I've done what I've done, said what I've said Faced all my fears, shed all my tears Feels like it's near, the last of my years Made my bed and I lie in it Built my coffin to die in it That's my life and I tried to live it God's plan already decided it
