JT Music - Become the Knight

Just woke up, not knowin' whose skin I'm in
Like my mirror might be
Keepin' something hidden within
Expect to see my reflection -
Yet this isn't him
Tryna remember what happened
Don't know where to begin
Feel like I'm locked up in a coffin
But I'm rockin' the sarcophagus
Knock it off the hinges
Then I'm risin' like a monolith
Skyward, I'm divine
Unto death and back I've traveled
They can wrap me tight in linen
But I'm bound to come unraveled
Cause I'm fragile - every part fractured
The heart of Marc Spector
Belongs to a god, avatar of a dark protector
Anyone else with us is in for a ride
We're walkin' in the same skin
And yet we never unite
So we'd better align when
We're setting our sights
Remember when the sun sets
Something better will rise
We gotta keep the day safe
By defending the night
Wherever shadows of evil tread
We are shedding out light

Too long inside this sarcophagus
Time to come alive
I got enough mommy problems
I won't be mummified
Wait for the sun to go down
I'm about to run the night
Under the watch of the Moon
I'm gonna become the Knight

You'll be walkin' on walkin' on broken glass
If you cast judgement
I'm the one it won't get past
Wouldn't wanna be in Ammit's sandals
It's a bloody trail
She got skin in the game
So I came to tip her scales
I'm sorry if you follow her
You're clearly deceived
Cause what you call worship is
More of a pyramid scheme
But if a tyrannical deity's really
Your cup of tea
I think the psych ward might be
Right where you oughta be
Who's got all the knowledge of
The gods on lock
Give a hand to Steven Grant - man
I run this shop
But I'm about to shut it down
No one allowed after hours
I may not be the manager, but dammit
I have powers with my suit and tie
Who am I? Mister-lookin'-super-fly
You'll be seeing stars soon as you
Can see the Moon tonight i'm such a catch
Even the gods wanna tie me down
But tomorrow morning can't be sure
Where I'll be found

Too long inside this sarcophagus
Time to come alive
I got enough mommy problems
I won't be mummified
Wait for the sun to go down
I'm about to run the night
Under the watch of the Moon
I'm gonna become the Knight

I've conjured Khonshu to walk in my
Shoes - but don't ask how
I was broken when he found me
I don't want the cast now
What kinda god has all his
Fellows tell him back down
Actin' holier than thou after
You've been cast out?
You're minimizing violence
Which isn't minimal don't need a Hippo to
Tell me it's hypocritical
But if you wanna stop Ammit
I can grant your wish, dude
Long as we don't forget to
Pick up more fish food

Too long inside this sarcophagus
Time to come alive
I got enough mommy problems
I won't be mummified
Wait for the sun to go down
I'm about to run the night
Under the watch of the Moon
I'm gonna become the Knight
