## Entry eight: witch weigh (10/22/26, ~2225) [Intro - Pensive, spoken word poetry] Feelings, condensing, stealing peace determine the border and release identify the locus of the disease inherit the modus operandi and seize the means of true neutrality pushing through to equanimity before the path can be achieved [Hook] just how much does a witch weigh and will she float anyway? sinking to the bottom welcome to that old familiar play how many decisions do you make until you can't help but break down the distinctions amassed to evaluate the wake? [Gang Shouts] HOW MANY DECISIONS DISTINCT IN RHYTHM FORK IN THE ROAD SYSTEM INTO INTUITION [Bridge - layered chanting] a path presents the math assents a calculus to commence the scales of sense you are trapped or are you something more intuition balks, impulse stalks judgment talks, action walks is this the is this the is this the [Breakdown] IS THIS THE CHOICE I MAKE SOMETHING TO APPROPRIATE A BETTER ARRANGEMENT OF FATE CAUGHT IN REACTIVE DEBATE I JUST WANT TO KNOW UNDERTOW— RIPTIDE OF DECISIONS FLOW UNDERTOW— [Verse] moments tend to paralysis reactive response and analysis demanding immediate action without rational reflection thoughts swirl in convection were those words invective should I have maybe collected my words before I expressed them? forward facing to the past entrapped in the eternal math but footsteps amass still the future ain't waitin, no. [Gang Shouts] THE FUTURE AIN'T— THE FUTURE AIN'T— NO IT AIN'T WAITIN NO [Hook] just how much does a witch weigh and will she float anyway? sinking to the bottom welcome to that old familiar play how many decisions do you make until you can't help but break down the distinctions amassed to evaluate the wake? [Gang Shouts] HOW MANY DECISIONS DISTINCT IN RHYTHM FORK IN THE ROAD SYSTEM INTO INTUITION [Bridge] remember your thoughts will lie when they ought tell the truth, you know already the ebb and flow but can you suspend the show a bracket on what you own and expect to be shown inhibit the judgment first and see past the curse of reactivity radioactive enmity are you your own enemy? [Verse - rapid fire cadence] No mayhem, so may them that portray whims of the vain bend ascribed to humanity at lower ends be exalted for a moment in hymn [Drop] [Chanted Choir Vocals] You Transgressed Against My Value is Immense You Stand In My Way My Plan Outweighs Demand Demand, Counterplay Riposte, We Coast Away [Gang Shouts] OBSTACLES REMAIN THE HAUNTED PULLS YOU INTO THE FRAME CAN YOU RESIST CAN YOU CONFIRM CAN YOU RESIST CAN YOU DISCERN [Verse - rapid fire cadence] never had to be lost in some churned wit or engrossed in perdition to know what the burn meant just that it was painful in lesser degrees even first was enough for you to see did you need to be set on fire? please say no. but we aren't all gifted with the gift of Know so we must develop a different tool that we know as discernment it's not just about judging the situation but actively setting aside reservations previous beliefs and the preservation of personal bias in the occasion to evaluate the context as displayed when the world wants the onslaught of mayhem to take precedence over a measured way; then is when we are put most to task to set aside the need to react based on instinctive drives intact like let's take an example, hopefully it will be ample once upon a lifetime anger consumed me during an argument with someone who knew me intimately, the mother of my child and the reaction was to basically go wild and choke her within an inch of her life now, was that right? [Breakdown] ANGER AND RAGE DISTORTING THE PAGE MAINTAIN THE SAME OR EMBRACE THE CHANGE WAS IT THE— [Verse] obviously not, poor judgment set sight out of my eyes and set my rage alight and to think I could do that sorta thing got me fucked the fuck up mayne but fast forward a decade and what comes someone fucked up on k2 acting dumb starts assaulting me and just won't stop and I put up with quite a lot but eventually I felt entirely fed up and found the nerve to lift my head up stand up and bring him to the ground at which point I then had him pinned down by the neck till he would submit and relax but if we are speaking of the facts I noticed my hand remained perhaps a bit long and something compelled me to notice this strong sense of "I don't want to let go" but I did it anyway some separate part of my brain had shit to say had me quick to separate get up and take off (forgot all about the gun that I knew he got) but you wanna know really what the word meant? the force responsible must have been discernment [Outro] [Extended Breakdown - Screamed vocals] Instrumental implements condense into the sense reflective, a mirror hints of faults and flaws spent and accrued, insight arrives in a flash of light paper as photographic material, I write. [Gang Shouts] I WRITE— WRITE
