The Prison Lyrics & Tabs by Children of Gaia
The Prison
guitar chords lyrics
We've been brought up in an omnipresent prison
Day after day it grows, it lures us, it seduces, it comforts us
Nevertheless we keep on going blindly
Believing that things came to be exactly as it told us (tells us)
Our mother, the same one who taught us what's right or wrong.
This prison called culture
Is the burden of our so called modern civilization
Our mother, the same one who taught us what's right or wrong
The same one who presented us its myths and rites
The very same who brings us lethargy until we awake
The culture of maximum damage that purged the unfaithful
The worthless and obtuse ones
That annihilated tribes and races that were "terribly subalterns"
The one that deprived us from happenings and facts
Genocides that were intelligently hidden by the official history
That annihilated tribes and races that were "terribly subalterns"
The one that deprived us from happenings and facts
Genocides that were intelligently hidden by the official history
It's hard to get free from its bars, its entanglements
When it whispers its truths since birth
Now is the time to awake
To go beyond our culture
To go beyond this world
To go beyond civilization
And to live by our own way
There's not only one way of thinking
There's not only one way of acting
There's not only one way of living
