Anything can seem beautiful

If you say it in a way that’s beautiful

Your sickly sun tells us to run

Your mother goddess screams for carnage

Anything can seem destiny

Even if it’s just cowardly

Your faded light tells you to fight

Your mother goddess with hate’s varnish

Anything can seem transcendental

Even if it’s just ornamental

Anyone can say they fight to be free

While putting others in slavery

———

You declare yourself the champion of the gods

Draped in gold, you think you beat the odds

While all that’s truly sacred is shackled by your hatred

You declare yourself the champion of the gods

You think the earth and sky and waters are

Yours to drive all through with your large car

While all who seek the gnosis are told they have psychosis

You think the earth and sky and waters are

Yours

———

Anything can seem rational

If you keep the education from us all

Your history’s a fake story

Your mother goddess is merciless

Anything can seem set in stone

Even if there’s something deeper than our bones

Your pageantry is quite funny

Your mother goddess does not impress

Anything can seem like honesty

If you repeat it regularly

Anyone can say they fight to be free

While putting others in slavery

———

You declare yourself the champion of the gods

Draped in gold, you think you beat the odds

While all that’s truly sacred is shackled by your hatred

You declare yourself the champion of the gods

You think the earth and sky and waters are

Yours to drive all through with your large car

While all who seek the gnosis are told they have psychosis

You think the earth and sky and waters are

Yours

———

I’d rather die than place my love in chains

And my death will unearth the remains

So if you want to punish me

Think of what that punishment would be

I’d rather die than place my love in chains

I don’t want power for my curse-kind self

I don’t want your power for myself

I want all mothers to unite

With their children who they love so bright

I don’t want power for my curse-kind self

———

You declare yourself the champion of the gods

Draped in gold, you think you beat the odds

While all that’s truly sacred is shackled by your hatred

You declare yourself the champion of the gods

You think the earth and sky and waters are

Yours to drive all through with your large car

While all who seek the gnosis are told they have psychosis

You think the earth and sky and waters are

Yours

———
