🕑 Added 2022-09-15 20:59:31 +0000 UTCI have updated the audio- this is the FINAL PRODUCT! WOOOO!!!
「I'm lower than the dirt...」
Music/Arrangement/Composition: Tikaal
MV: Venz Music/Lyrics/Vocals/
Mix: Trickle
Homunculus is a song about endlessly rebuilding oneself until they are "good enough"- never satisfied with the result.
This song is inspired by the Gospel of the Bible- that you can not be good enough to earn salvation, for at our human core we are sinners against God.
What Homunculus leaves out, though, is that forgiveness of our sins is a free gift from the Lord for those who call upon the Lord in repentance.
Particularly these two verses:
..."for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus." (Romans 3:23-26)
&
"For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.(Ephesians 2:8-9)
These passages teach that we are all sinners, but that God loves us enough to die for us through Christ so that we may have eternal life, freely as a gift ("For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23) ).
I thought it was beautiful inspiration for a song so ugly.
I hope that you enjoy.

Lyrics:
I realized in my last life
That I hate the light
So I keep running
And running
I'm trying to hide
From everything that's inside
This heart that I've tried
To erase and wash away all the shame
Scared to death of what's within
There's a bleeding kind of beating, deep beneath the skin
Feel it rattle, ravage- all my sin
Hear it scream behind my chest again
No alchemy can give me
What I wish I could be
So I'll try a different body
Just a dash of this and that,
A touch of blood, and add some mud
My wishes, fears, and painful tears
I wonder when I'll have enough
No form of love can give me what I wish I could be
I pray just change me
I'm broken, torn, and tattered
I'll never be full again
I'll close my eyes and shatter
My heart, rebuild from the start
Disgusting
Even if I somehow
Find a way to feel alive, I....
Realized in my last life
That I hate the light
So I keep running
And running
I'm trying to hide
From everything that's inside
This heart that I've tried
To erase and wash away all the shame
To erase and wash away all the shame
Stuck in the mud in my mind,
If I clean up, I swear that I'd shine
I am confined
To what is inside
Eating away at the thoughts that I'm trying to hide
And I'm sick of all this wondering if I even deserve to live
I think it's best I rip
These feelings out with the rest of it
The breath of life was my demise,
I'm cursed until the day I die
Perhaps a better set of eyes
Will blind me from this sin of mine
I've been forsaken, I'm breakin', can't take it again
So take from me my mind and let me be
I'm lower than the dirt,
A worthless Homunculus
Sick of this!
Even if I somehow
Find a way to feel alive, I....
Realized in my last life
That I hate the light
So I keep running
And running
I'm trying to hide
From everything that's inside
This heart that I've tried
To erase and wash away all the shame
To erase and wash away all the shame
Toil all day, till this rotten clay,
Water and blood just aren't enough
To fill my heart up
Over and over, I try to reshape
Crying in shame as I take the pain out
Maybe
That can change me
That can save me
I'm broken, torn, and tattered
I'll never be full again
I'll close my eyes and shatter
My heart, rebuild from the start
Disgusting!
Even if I somehow
Find a way to feel alive, I....
Realized in my last life
That I hate the light
So I keep running
And running
I'm trying to hide
So maybe in my next life,
I'll finally find
Find a way to wash away all the shame
To erase and wash away all the shame

I'm so glad you think so, I wanted to make it a song that can encourage believers and makes others outside the faith feel heard so that they can see that Christians are just as human as anyone else- so that all know that they have a friend in the Lord who is the ultimate source of comfort ^^
Trickle

I love this so much, and I love the inspiration behind it! Man, I am SO glad that we have Jesus' righteousness to cover us! Even though we did nothing to deserve it, He redeemed us and gives us value that no one can ever snatch away :) Beautiful song and a wonderful reminder of God's goodness, love, and mercy :) Thank you, Trickle.
