balance..

Post by mnaz »

if you plant a seed and never water
you get slave ships and sly stone
out of his mind into another one
on a long slave ocean

a seed can't pick its spot
it lands according to physics
long ago argued to oblivion
the elemental dilemma

how many times
can you stab the devil and call it a win?
what is a force of trillions, this way or that?
no no, keep it together, the final greed
this is our fight, raise your shield

it means nothing and everything
you zen slackers, red and blue
we will liberate us

yea, if we wait around much longer for the 2 predominate parties to suddenly take to heart and interest, our well-being, we will simply wither away or go more violently into the next world.......the sly stone image was great....the last time I saw him on stage, his eyes were glazed like a manic preacher and he was mumbling lyrics like gibberish sporting his new platinum hair......yikes...so that reference was huge for me.....

Interesting. A number of interesting ideas like

a seed can't pick its spot
it lands according to physics
long ago argued to oblivion
the elemental dilemma
