Yiiiiaaaoowww!

So -
In the beginning there was hum from a poet whose pulse fell,
"Drum drum drum!"
He would perform prayers and all till one day he heard a voice call,
"Come come come!"
Suspicious he moved with vicious caution
Dismisses, he thinks it's a little off.
People get held back by the voice inside 'em

Yo -
The voice said I'm poised to speak inside you,
Rejoice and please let me invite you,
To evil, greed and lies too.

Yeah -
Confusing days he moved in ways he soon became a koon,
Boom boom boom.
And knock on his door his heart is no more.
And knock on his door his soul is no more.

Yeah... that was in the beginning...as the story goes on...

So so so -
The poet's got a proposal, he would always hope but never know,
What it feels to be free.
It would be the frozen, imposed, as the chosen: all laws opposing,
But it would be greed.
That's got him there, he's power hungry and proud too
People don't care, people just scared
People don't care, people just prayer

Yeah... that was in the beginning...there was a hum... and things change...

Yeah, yeah, yeah -
Say -
It's better to light a candle than to curse the dark.
In the eyes of the youth there are question marks,
Like freedom.
Freedom for the mind and soul,
We don't see them.
See them for their worth at all,
That's why we lead them.
Lead them to these wars and what is it we feed them,
Feed them our impurities and who it is we treat them.
Treat them like the enemy humanity will need them,
Need them like the blood we spill and where freedom.
Freedom for the hearts we fill, mislead 'em.
They hunger for the love we give, but we cheat 'em.
The cops beat them when all he wants is his freedom,
So they defeat them, whatever spirit he's got, beat 'em,
And they teach them that the rest of the world don't need him,
And he believes it's a disease that he's heathen.
Put up your fists if all you want is freedom.
Put up your fists if all you want is -

That was in the beginning... and things change

Yeah, yeah, yeah -
And we keep holding on
And we keep being strong
And we keep going on
And on and on and on

And we keep holding on
And we keep being strong
And we keep going on
And on and on and on...

Mirror lyrics:

And on and on and on...
And we keep going on
And we keep being strong
And we keep holding on

And on and on and on
And we keep going on
And we keep being strong
And we keep holding on
Yeah, yeah, yeah -

That was in the beginning... and things change

Put up your fists if all you want is -
Put up your fists if all you want is freedom.
And he believes it's a disease that he's heathen.
And they teach them that the rest of the world don't need him,
So they defeat them, whatever spirit he's got, beat 'em,
The cops beat them when all he wants is his freedom,
They hunger for the love we give, but we cheat 'em.
Freedom for the hearts we fill, mislead 'em.
Need them like the blood we spill and where freedom.
Treat them like the enemy humanity will need them,
Feed them our impurities and who it is we treat them.
Lead them to these wars and what is it we feed them,
That's why we lead them.
See them for their worth at all,
We don't see them.
Freedom for the mind and soul,
Like freedom.
In the eyes of the youth there are question marks,
It's better to light a candle than to curse the dark.
