[Lyric] Arrogance Incarnate (Terrible Claw)

Sneering, egoism, blind to the damage done
Attrition drove by insults
Renege, feigning ignorance

Inflated sense of self-worth
Fuels delusions of grandeur
Faux projection of the image
That you the world to see

A pitiful disguise

Belittle to boost self-esteem
A clear and obvious lack of respect
Ire from the ivory tower
Recipient of pointless glower

Determined to a fault, ignorance defined
Shaping perceptions, of those you leave behind
Beyond reproach, vehement denial
Held in high regard, at least in your own mind
Faux self-assurance
Sustained by invectives
Blind to the attrition
Absolved of accusations

Arrogance incarnate
