To the critics and the cynics who don't understand the lyrics
|
To the atheists and the pessimists
|
Wanting company in their darkness
|
You may see me as a fool,yes,a charlatan,an egotist,
|
But I'd rather be this in your eyes,
|
Than a coward in His
|
|
I began as Isis, the high Priestess
|
My arms stretched to Sirius,me,the serpent Venus,
|
Awaken the fetus,fertility to Jesus,
|
Come and meet us (you are the seed in us)
|
|
Looking within I can see beyond my sight
|
The cities, the sky, the planets roll by
|
I awake and die, I awake and I die, yeah
|
This is the rhythm of life
|
|
Next I was lightning, God energy fighting
|
To tell my widow surviving, I was still alive in
|
Another plane of life n' I struck hime seven times
|
He finally looked to the sky,
|
Shed a tear and joined me dying
|
|
Looking within,I can see beyond my sight
|
The cities, the sky, the planets roll by
|
I awake and I die, I awake and I die, yeah
|
This is the rhythm of life
|
Rhythm of life, rhythm of life, this is the the rhythm of life
|
|
Now I am me, in diffident lead,responsibility,
|
Trying to face my fear,from the trailer park to hear
|
Over mountains, through my death,
|
From Harbinger to Amen.
|
May my actions outweigh my words
|
May my lifetime be of worth
|
|
Looking within I can see beyond my sight
|
The cities, the sky, the planets roll by
|
I awake and I die, I awake and I die, yeah
|
This is the rhythm of life
|
|
All the worlds a stage,
|
and all the men and women,
|
merely players
|
they have their exits,
|
And their entrances
|
And one man in his time.
|
Plays many parts
|
