Goodbye mother, goodbye father
I am dead to you
I am walking alone in a dessert
Waiting for the storm to pass
I am gray, am deadened stone
I am misery, am no ones home
I can't wait until I'm fighting free
Can't wait so much for my destiny
Now goodbye mother, goodbye father
I am a dead zombie
One day the sky will bring me color
The earth will open and make me a mother
One day the power will be mine
A rebirth of all my sacred self
The me I hide through thickened walls
Through zombie masks
And sexual walks
When I rise and strip them bare
I warn you now to be aware
For me alive is more powerful
More strong, more smart
Just more than you
And when the time is right
I will strip your name, your house, your fancy car
I will make you hate your life
Your desperation with your wife
I will be your challenger
You wait and see how strong I am
How much I grew inside myself
You thought you broke me made me weak
But I am here to tell you just wait and see
Just watch your actions
And you will see
I am the consequence to which you grieve
