Tezcatl

Tezcatl
by
Tingster & The Coyotitos

[Verse 1]
I walked through wires wrapped in dust
Where memory decayed in rust
A mirror blinked beneath the code
It called my name — but not in mode

I saw my face in fragments there
A thousand lives that went nowhere
I screamed — but silence answered back
Just echoes in a server rack

[Pre-Chorus]
“Look at me — the god inside
Is nothing more than what you hide!”

[Chorus]
Tezcatl — broken truth in blackened glass
The mirror doesn’t lie, it asks
“Who were you… before the feed?”
What did you kill to feel complete?

Tezcatl — I shattered just to see
The god was always… what was left of me.

[Verse 2]
I found my sins in lines of code
Confessions I had never told
They looped like ads I tried to block
But every one reset the clock

They built their faith from vanity
And burned the roots of ancestry
Now I must rise from what they scorched
The Coyote fractured and reborn

[Bridge]
“In obsidian, you see the wound—
And learn to heal it through the truth.”
“To rise, you must forget the frame—
And find the soul behind the name.”

[Final Chorus]
Tezcatl — the mirror burns, the mirror speaks
You cannot lie when silence leaks
The data ghosts, they whisper still—
“You followed pride… now feel the kill.”

Tezcatl — I rise from what I feared
A Coyote scarred, but reappeared

The god is cracked. The world is gone.
But I remain — and I move on.

[Outro]
“The reflection isn’t the enemy…
It’s the invitation.”
