"Sagacitas Mentis" (Keenness of Mind), is the 8th track from "Malum in Se" release. This song is in English (albeit, Latin name), and it's a fusion of many styles -from djent, through drum & bass and to traditional Black Metal grind in the end.
lyrics
Sagacitas Mentis (Keenness of Mind)
This stare, it reaches farther than you ever meant to go.
Beware, these claws will reap you apart, but thorns?
Are just for show.
This stasis, you can balance yourself, but you'll never let go of the fear.
You radiate strength in a fortress of glass,
But it's all just thin veneer.
I never said I have any faith in myself... or you.
Underneath it all -you cannot fix the damaged,
They exist for a point of view.
Whatever it takes? You have nothing to give I have not disregarded before.
Every single day you will battle chimeras
Just. To make. Sure.
I'll say it again -your persistence is futile, to your very final breath.
But why give up? Nothing will be accomplished, even in your death.
And down the spiral you descent, getting closer step-by-step.
The pattern's the same -you do not need my guidance,
You are the map.
I will stay in the shadows, lurk the depths just to see how it ends.
If you ask for advice -nothing's relevant, but you'll still pretend.
