Mind Control

Follow me down this path & observe my words
along the way
They're breadcrumbs leading the way connecting
dots like neural pathways
I seen the light & it was good until the darkness
had come around
The sun raised me up in all its ways so the dark
sought to bring me down
My thoughts were that of a crystal ball until clouds
formed in stormy pose
It started to rain but this cleansed my soul as angels
flocked in hidden droves
You see, eventually the roles will switch as pressure 
builds for the oppressed
It's said the pressure will burst the pipe but diamonds
form under natures stress
The test is that of faith as to see if you're committed
to the guiding light
I had to embrace the darkness to know that I was
blind & it was this that gave me sight
It was a fight that I thought a game until I seen it
wouldn't end
This made me stronger than ever before & forged a
will that's built to win
Baptism by fire will mold your sins into the tools 
you'll need to use
Harden your mind but keep it as water to help escape
this liquid cube
You'll run circles around this box when you master 
dimensions designed to enclose
Master your mind & study its angles for it's the obtuse
that we oppose
These profuse lines may be profane to some that are
lacking the inner gnosis
Know that it's only mind that stands in your way &
all that it opposes
