The Execution

Cognitive dissonance Of myself in another This blood is not just mine I am your brother That is my fault I demand my blame As judge, jury, prosecutor Please shower me in shame I must reconcile for all I have done For I must be better In times to come I shall amend for all I have done Accept and better myself By the blood in my veins By the blood in yours This bond of blood Has betrayed you These years of agony Such tragedy By the blood in my veins You do not need to forgive me I have stripped my biases My choices were wrong Emotionally, mentally I was not who I need to be Nothing can take back Two decades of tragedy But I couldn't fathom I was stuck in my own dichotomy How can I destroy the ones I love? I can love Execution Such love, such hate It reached out of me, to my family He's guilty That does not make it alright That will never make it alright This apology requires no acceptance You do not need to forgive me By the blood in my veins By the blood in yours This bond of blood Has betrayed you These years of agony Such tragedy By the blood in my veins You do not need to forgive me. And I accept my flaws As a human, as a brother, as blood I am bound to be better
