Ring 6 - LoTown
Raised routinely to believe
We've a-narrowed purpose we can't contravene
Blessed is the obligation anything unique is blasphemy
They need more mouths to feed
Some of us fall off the path
Make our decisions never looking back
Autonomy's short-lived, they don't forgive
And so, we're damned by autocrats
To feed the mouths in need
But the quotas are too much, the yield's not enough
We worked our hardest, but the basin's drying up
And they deny that simple truth
They seem determined, resolute to fail
(We're held beneath the monolith) Of their manipulation
(We exist) Entangled in creation
(Hypocrites) Too often make decisions
Raring to quote a god to get what they want
Down here, we all grow anything we want to
And every single bloom's a victory
Any joy you can find is encouraged by the Consistory
Down here, we share the weight of every burden
But every sister is your devotee
Whoever you were, when you come here, it's ancient history
(We're held beneath the monolith) Of their manipulation
(We exist) Entangled in creation
(Hypocrites) Too often make decisions
Raring to quote a God
(Beneath the monolith)
(We exist)
(Hypocrites) Too often make decisions
Raring to quote a God to get what they want
From down here, the sunlight rarely warms the ice enough to break a sweat
But nothing rivals just how cold another's judgment gets
This bit of distance sure does hush those holy epithets
From down here, the city's voices bounce around 'til nothing's clear at all
So we dissociate from anyone who's never made the fall
You'll never get us until you're with us, down here
Down here
Down here
We've a-narrowed purpose we can't contravene
Blessed is the obligation anything unique is blasphemy
They need more mouths to feed
Some of us fall off the path
Make our decisions never looking back
Autonomy's short-lived, they don't forgive
And so, we're damned by autocrats
To feed the mouths in need
But the quotas are too much, the yield's not enough
We worked our hardest, but the basin's drying up
And they deny that simple truth
They seem determined, resolute to fail
(We're held beneath the monolith) Of their manipulation
(We exist) Entangled in creation
(Hypocrites) Too often make decisions
Raring to quote a god to get what they want
Down here, we all grow anything we want to
And every single bloom's a victory
Any joy you can find is encouraged by the Consistory
Down here, we share the weight of every burden
But every sister is your devotee
Whoever you were, when you come here, it's ancient history
(We're held beneath the monolith) Of their manipulation
(We exist) Entangled in creation
(Hypocrites) Too often make decisions
Raring to quote a God
(Beneath the monolith)
(We exist)
(Hypocrites) Too often make decisions
Raring to quote a God to get what they want
From down here, the sunlight rarely warms the ice enough to break a sweat
But nothing rivals just how cold another's judgment gets
This bit of distance sure does hush those holy epithets
From down here, the city's voices bounce around 'til nothing's clear at all
So we dissociate from anyone who's never made the fall
You'll never get us until you're with us, down here
Down here
Down here
