I create such brilliant universes right out of my brain
Even though some might say I am quite insane
Those wonderous neural pathways won't keep me in my lane
My thoughts bend reality, not to sound too vain
Because even though I'm a brain in a vat
I can alter existence just like that
Because I am smarter than a cranium rat
And my illithid colony is getting fat
The thing that's over matter surely is my mind
When I manifest intentions I don't get left behind
And all I want is to create a world that is kind
When it comes to my sixth sense my third eye isn't blind
Because even though I'm a brain in a vat
I can alter existence just like that
Because I am smarter than a cranium rat
And my illithid colony is getting fat
It's hard to be so friendly when I don't have a heart
But my telekinesis will tear you right apart
But I have been spreading joy and love right from my start
And I also turn brain blasting into a kind of art
So if you see an octopus-headed man
It's probably best if you turned and ran
Because even though I'm a brain in a vat
I can alter existence just like that
Because I am smarter than a cranium rat
And my illithid colony is getting fat

You have some wonderful turns of phrase. Like, The thing that's over matter surely is my mind. In fact, that whole verse!
And the others!! This is some really fine writing!!

I didn’t know illithid was another name for mind flayer! Great insights into your strange brain in these lyrics.

Welcome to FAWM! You have created a very clear and cohesive story of this "brain in a vat". I like the extremes of manifesting a kinder world vs "my telekinesis will tear you right apart."
