Pride

I've stared God in the face and denied him.

Child
Don't speak to me that way
I am disgusted by your
Misplaced condescension
Now witness my ascension
Turn your
Eyes to see my glory eclipse
Your delusion:

Your ignorant sense of pride.

Deny any semblance of honor
You're unworthy of the claim
For Hubris is my name.

I am enlightened beyond your comprehension
I am the Baptist of Fire
I've shown you mercy, but your
Insolence tests my apprehension
Be still and
Know my name.

You filthy arrogant scum
My mercy frees you of your prison under my thumb.

Test me
I dare you
It's my name you swear to
My patience is wearing thin.

I am enlightened beyond your comprehension
I am the Baptist of Fire
I've shown you mercy, but your
Insolence tests my apprehension
Be still and
Know my name.

Insignificant
I find you guilty of my sin
Behold my grandeur
You cannot win.

Deny any semblance of honor
You're unworthy of the claim
For Hubris is my name.

I am enlightened beyond your comprehension
I am the Baptist of Fire
I've shown you mercy, but your
Insolence tests my apprehension
Be still and
Know my name.
