“AETERNUM EYES” — Xpollo X

Lyrics

[Intro — piano, distant strings] Look. Everybody wants power until power starts asking questions back. Everybody wants the throne until the throne gets quiet. Purple in one eye. Gold in the other. Yeah. [Verse 1 — controlled, building] I spent years thinking strength meant destruction, Walk in the room and everybody stop discussion. Sentinel vision, I could see through corruption, But seeing every lie only made me trust nothing. Funny. You ever know too much and wish you didn’t? Ever look inside somebody and see exactly what they’re hiding? Ever have the power to remove ’em from existence But realize self-control is probably the bigger difference? That was me. God of Destruction with a chip on my shoulder, Every battle made the heart inside my chest a little colder. People saw the power, never asked about the holder, Like carrying infinity somehow makes the weight feel lighter. Nah. [Beat begins building] Then Ashen disappeared. Everything shifted. Divinity hit me and something awakened, Gold in my vision, entire perspective changing. I already knew how to destroy what was breaking, Now I had to learn the responsibility of saving. That’s different. [Hook — huge cinematic drums] AETERNUM EYES! Purple see the truth, Gold decide the fate. One remembers everything, One carries all the weight. AETERNUM EYES! I got heaven in my sight, Got the void behind my name. Went from destroying worlds to understanding why they’re made. You see a man when I walk by— That’s fine. You don’t gotta know what’s living behind these Aeternum Eyes. [Verse 2 — faster cadence] Wait. God of Gods, what’s that supposed to mean? Everybody hear the title, they imagine being king. They imagine having everything, commanding anything, Nobody talks about the isolation power brings. I can walk into the studio like anybody else, Make a record, crack a joke, put the title on the shelf. Run Platinum Empire, handle business by myself, Then go home knowing there are things my power still can’t help. That’s real. Can’t command somebody to love you. Can’t resurrect trust when somebody cuts through you. Can’t snap your fingers, make somebody understand you. Funny how being divine still don’t make you less human. [Flow accelerates] I can read energy, motives, intentions, See through illusions, dimensions, deception. Feel every shift, every spiritual tension, Still can’t calculate why people ruin connections. So what’s the lesson? Maybe power ain’t knowing everything. Maybe power is knowing you could end everything and choosing not to. [Beat cuts] Think about that. [Verse 3 — darker, aggressive] Purple eye remembers every battlefield. Every loss. Every scar. Every time somebody switched when they thought I fell apart. Gold eye looking forward like, “Enough of who you are.” You got worlds depending on you, You don’t get to stay in dark. I know. Don’t think I don’t. That old version still knocking on the door. Still hear destruction telling me it could make everything simple if I let it take control. But I’m more than that now. I gotta be. Because when your hands can erase reality, anger becomes something you cannot afford casually. Everybody screaming, “Show ’em what you are!” Why? The strongest person in the room shouldn’t need applause. [Hook — bigger] AETERNUM EYES! Purple see the truth, Gold decide the fate. One remembers everything, One carries all the weight. AETERNUM EYES! Destruction and creation living underneath one name. I inherited the heavens but I never lost the pain. You see Xpollo when I walk by— That’s fine. You don’t gotta know what’s living behind these Aeternum Eyes. [Bridge — piano only / spoken rap] Sometimes I walk with humans because they remind me of something gods forget. Time matters. A conversation matters. One night matters. One person matters. When you think you have forever, you stop understanding why people hold onto today so hard. Maybe that’s why I’m still here. Not above them. With them. [Final Verse — explosive rapid flow] Look— Former God of Destruction, now Gods answer upward, Sentinel foundation with Celestial structure. Violet was survival, gold became the future, Put ’em both together, now the vision getting clearer. Aeternum. That ain’t just eyes, that’s evolution. Proof you can carry your past without letting it rule you. Power ain’t violence, a crown ain’t a solution, Sometimes the greatest flex is having strength and never using it. I know what I was. I know what I became. I know people see the title before seeing the pain. But when that purple and that gold sit inside the same frame, You’re looking at destruction and creation with one name. Xpollo X. Still making music. Still walking Earth. Still learning people. Still figuring out what all this power’s worth. And maybe I’ll never know. Maybe that’s the point. Because even the God of Gods still got somewhere left to grow. [Outro — whispered] Purple remembers. Gold underst
