lyrics

Music: Lawrence
Lyrics: Van Lanen

There was a time
When we lived bona fide
Through wisdom passed on
From elders held inside
We listened to the land
And heeded every sign
Participated in the process of alethia

This is our place

Wild beasts of the forest
Living by voices
The civilized
Will never hear
Ritual of sustenance
A simple way the blood spills
The spirit grateful for
Sacrifice to oneness of life

A proud people show reverence
Eating raw heart
As it passes around
The circle of flames
Embrace the blood
Swallow the life

Exalt the wonder
Leaver culture
Found solace in the
Propriety of here and now
Sophists proclaim
Supremacy of their ways
You fucking liar
Show me proof
Which justifies your world

The body transcends the flesh
A congenital contract
In occupancy of place

Ancestral embodiment of limits
Life in the circle of mutual influence

This is my search for the primal
Vision quest for cosmos
In a world got awry

This is my search for the primal
I embrace the forces
Of pre-cognitive life world

Pathologic culture of domestication
Foolishly embracing myths of progress
Inexorable warrior chief stands
Magnanimous in the face of enculturation

I abandon the entropic project
Of planetary domination
And proudly celebrate the demise
Of your world

I will resist as you eradicate yourselves
In the irreversible recession of a functioning earth

And on that day
When civilization dies
We will begin anew
Immersed within the great lesson
Of relatedness
