I am the future I am metaphor for war I take my medicine as I'm praying on the floor We see the future whats going behind our time I'm synthesis in motion I am freedom and decline Raise me to shine I cannot define my cracks Wash me aside when my levees finally break In opposition we are never free When our thoughts become our slavery The poet and the liar The future or the way we were
Stand down rise up, we all know The secret to the life we chose So we are I am not escaping from who I am I am less than dead, reborn again We all won't get turned away All is forgiven when we pray The poet and the liar The future or the way we were Stand down rise up, we all know The secret to the life you chose Stand down rise up, we all know Stand down rise up, we all know
