Aura of the Inevitable
My name...
My reputation...
it's all the same...
what a shame....
how you try to blacken it....
Spitting venom bit by bit...
To every person you spit in secrecy
They absorb your venomous poison...
Eyes stare and fingers point as I walk...
Through a tunnel of judgement and misconception..
Misunderstood....
They're led in the wrong direction...
They're blinded by it...
Yet looking in my eyes...
Failing to realize....
My mine is strong...
Impossible...
To keep me down for long...
Where all else fails...
I prevail...
Looking ahead...
Never behind...
Never able to corrupt my mind...
Only a matter of time...
Before the ones you once poisoned...
discover the truth...
My name...
My reputation...
It's all the same...
Only in time will the blame...
be maimed to proof....
as Karma's visit is due...
Where as...
the true blackening...
Rested solely upon you...
