Let’s pick a word
Let’s pick a word
Let’s pick the word stupid.
If one blindly follows the herd
One’s fear is deeply rooted.
Who fills your trough?
Are the contents diluted?
How will you know
If you are too frightened to dispute it?
That strange, fixed smile on your face
Is a thin veneer hiding inner turmoil.
It’s not peace, it’s not grace
It’s the last remnant of your sanity
Slowly blistering on broil.
If mankind continues to pretend
The nightmare will never end.
If we allow humanity to be hacked and recoded
The intellect will be corrupted and eroded.
The Establishment think they’re the bomb
And think we are their slaves…their programmed
bio-automatons.
Why are so many so clueless, so compliant?
Why do they suffer abuse from tyrants
Instead of being self-aware, mindful, and defiant?
Mankind…creations of Cosmic Source, Divine mysticism
Potential so marvelous, it is beyond description
Walking like zombies, filling their prescriptions
All the wonders of the universe at our disposal
Yet…we took the magic and created something tragic.
