A self-fulfilling prophecy bled upon the sands
Foretold by a presumption grounded in deceit
Modified behaviors are but the catalyst
Causing constant feedback most arduous to withstand
When cries that kill the savages are met with no remorse
But the grandest fools can expect civil discourse
So ogres come to battle the fiends that shout them down
This violent loop is an awful lot of fun
Cause and effect are coupled,
With knowledge preordained, defectively
The prophet cites circumstance to subdue his crimes
The backlash, with every corpse that rots
Drives his rancor home
Knowledge preordained defectively
