War Without, War Within B C C R S S Ascension

(Verse 1)
Perseus, born of gods but trapped in Cain’s sin,
Torn between light and the darkness within.
Hating the divinity sewn in his veins,
He wields ego’s blade, bound in Cain’s chains.
The Kraken stirs deep in his tortured soul,
Hades whispers lies, taking control.
But Io, the pure, the guardian of light,
Shines her love through the chaos of night.

(Chorus)
B C C R S S, the spell of the dead,
B C C R S S, where the blind are led.
B C C R S S, chains of the NAME,
B C C R S S, burning in shame.
Ascend from the ashes, break free of this game,
Or fall into the fire of guilt and blame.

(Verse 2)
Io gave her life to shield his heart,
Torn apart by the forces that never depart.
A gift from the gods, her death undone,
Upon his ascension, the war nearly won.
But Perseus refuses the crown of kings,
Rejecting the poison authority brings.
For to lead is to serve, not to rule or take,
Rare are those who do not break.

(Chorus)
B C C R S S, the bond of the birth,
B C C R S S, they enslave from first breath.
B C C R S S, the surety of debt,
B C C R S S, their trap is set.
Ascend from the ashes, rise or regret,
Or fall into the pit where the soul forgets.

(Bridge)
The carnal left—Hades calls,
Kraken rises as the mighty fall.
But Io’s light still burns so bright,
Guiding him through endless night.
The Perseid tears rip through the sky,
Swift-Tuttle whispers: it's time to fly.

(Chorus)
B C C R S S, the code of the dead,
B C C R S S, where the NAME is fed.
B C C R S S, the papers you sign,
B C C R S S, they claim you’re mine.
Ascend from the ashes, reclaim your mind,
Or fall to the fraud, forever confined.

(Outro)
When one "sees" the truth in every breath,
When the veil lifts from life and death,
The fogs of war can blur no more,
Perseus stands at the final door.
Lead, not rule, with heart of gold,
The ascension complete, his soul unfolds.
