This is an appeal to the struggling and striving
|
||
|
stakeholders of this planet, this floating rock we call Earth.
|
||
|
Alas, that means you.
|
||
|
That means everyone of your acquaintance,
|
||
|
every figure your eyes skim past in the street,
|
||
|
every charlatan still to defeat,
|
||
|
every tender face you find solace in -
|
||
|
now mimic the mindset William Wallace was in.
|
||
|
Dismount, disembark, descend from your existence,
|
||
|
slacken your angst and decant your hate
|
||
|
'cause in the long run they're about as useful
|
||
|
as pouring acid onto your dinner plate.
|
||
|
To muzzled masses that lead lives of deafening desperation:
|
||
|
With Excalibur aloft King Arthur earned the throne
|
||
|
but it's our minds we gotta wrench out of stone.
|
||
|
Don't be fooled by its simplicity, there was never a broadcast made of such urgency
|
||
|
'cause at no time before us did we grasp the scope of this emergency.
|
||
|
Ladle out love and logic by the boatload,
|
||
|
equipped with that cargo you can take any road.
|
||
|
Now grab life, seize time. this fight is for human kind.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I am a mindsweeper, focus on me.
|
||
|
I am a mindsweeper, focus on me.
|
||
|
I will read your mind.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I dart through rapids, through the streams of thought,
|
||
|
then suddenly I started losing my mind.
|
||
|
Catapulting through the uncharted
|
||
|
I could no longer tell if these were your thoughts or mine.
|
||
|
|
||
|
And it was as if I held a mirror up to my soul, held a mirror up to my soul.
|
||
|
It was as if I held a mirror up to my soul.
|
||
|
Who was the author and who was the observer?
|
||
|
Who was the author and who was the observer?
|
||
|
For at the last analysis our thoughts coalesced.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You are not alone. You are not alone.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You have entered volatile territory,
|
||
|
you have started a journey, you're part of this story.
|
||
|
And this, this was just a glimpse, just a glimpse.
|
||
|
You've no idea what you've got yourself into.
|
||
|
You've no idea what you've got yourself into.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I am a mindsweeper, focus on me.
|
||
|
I am a mindsweeper, focus on me, on me.
