Embers of Tradition

Posted: June 9, 2011 in Lyrics from Notebook

My tribe’s traditions in a heap of ash
Human connections severed
Links to yesterday become trash
Our days are numbered

Dualistic meanings
Predetermined directions
Cleanse the old by fire
Re-write the system

Bridge
Culture is created from the top
Social structures are tools
Levers pulled in dubious plots
Make slaves of the fools

Subjugation to a plan
Iron fist never relents
Ancient false religious clan
Adherents so fervent

Serfdom of the mind
Spirit broken and crushed
Lands stolen, a heinous crime
Death by a thousand cuts

Bridge
Culture is created from the top
Social structures are tools
Levers pulled in dubious plots
Make slaves of the fools

Chorus
Ritual slaughter to Mammon
Brainwashed chevrons
Make embers of our traditions

An agenda contra God
Secrets in the inner portico
Outer rungs just a facade
Astrological manifesto

Bridge
Culture is created from the top
Social structures are tools
Levers pulled in dubious plots
Make slaves of the fools

Chorus
Ritual slaughter to Mammon
Brainwashed chevrons
Make embers of our traditions
