A Predator

Am I an apex predator or a criminal one?
I'm not arguing like a liar
I feel like I am being hunted
So dire
Domination
Control
Body pyres
Don't align?
It's like trying to self-possess with a broken mind
Some things aren't fitting in their grounded place
Perfection falling short doesn't need to mean falling from grace

Like a child of the wild
Living without a care
Just in the moment
So tuned in
Attentive yet unaware
Some lessons have to be learned hard
but not to the point where you're always on guard
Kills done right are quick and clean
Now which side am I on?
Do you know what I mean?

Stay in the sweet spot there
Do you also feel something stare?
Are we after the same kill
'cause this stalemate can't stand still
I know there's a way to agree
'cause this predator is one we don't see

It's all about emotions and elimination
Self-preservation over creation
Reproduction over evolution?
Is playing stupid a real solution?
When mind games fail and you know you're the lesser
my fangs of death show I'm an apex predator

Natural instincts versus anything is a futile fight
Just look how we have developed as species and know that I'm right
Provoking lust for another snap of this release that flows from my fangs
into your mortal anatomy and straight into your veins

A trail of impacts on my tail
connect where they're barely perceived
and emerge from the depths
in a nice natural fashion
launching in a way that feeds
Just right for evolution and what I desire
from this hunger and those unfulfilled prior
A nearly sixth sense pull connecting like wonder
Flee before my trailing rebounds thunder

Stay in the sweet spot there
Do you also feel something stare?
Are we after the same kill
'cause this stalemate can't stand still
I know there's a way to agree
'cause this predator is one we don't see

It's all about emotions and elimination
Self-preservation over creation
Reproduction over evolution?
Is playing stupid a real solution?
When mind games fail and you know you're the lesser
my fangs of death show I'm an apex predator

Fall into oceanic depths
So many wild variables of life
Under the pressure of evolution adaptation is nearly the key
In the waves of pelagic mortal sway they reveal nichely distorted reflections
I can't believe I still have to chew on the lies that tide toward me
Until I'm done with this body I won I will refuse to concede
Under my possession
Maybe without knowing
Regardless you belong to me
Strung along to the tide of my song
Lowest Ocean to the Astral Plane
