Lovers of the Earth (feat. Maria Joy)

ACT III: Integration

After a journey through the underworld,
We emerge with renewed reverence
For the simplicity of what is,
What was,
And what always will be.

We are the lovers of the Earth,
Guided by the cryptic synchronicities
Of the incalculable cosmic mystery.

Each of us occupies a unique place within the web of
Creation and its seamless Integration

I can finally see the truth
Of what it is we're here to do
We're the lovers of the Earth
And those silly humans too
It's true
It's you

You were right all along
But I don't learn from words
I had to feel it in the sounds
We're the lovers of the Earth
And the universe too

Such a simple concept
That we misconstrue and convolute
I guess this is the curse we're blessed to pursue
With our self-reflexive consciousness
And opposable thumbs too

We're on a intergalactic journey through our own evolution
Everything you see is a supernova explosion
Frozen in motion, in cycles of rebirth and erosion

The miracle of life tells me there a reason you were chosen
I wonder what kind of love's in your potion
You wonder what kind of drugs I've been smoking

These are the depths of my emotions
Returned to the ocean, where all life began
It appears we've been lost in an illusion of our own design

Adolescent desires conspired to trap our thoughts in our minds
Blind to the presence every moment provides

Thank God it's all ending
Excuse you if that's offensive
The justice I seek
Transcends anthropocentric incentives
You can call me sadistic if that makes you happy
But you can't stop my shine

I can finally see the truth
Of what it is we're here to do
We're the lovers of the Earth
And those silly humans too
It's true
It's you

You were right all along
Just the way you always were
Beneath the jobs, the drugs, and the divorce
And all the hateful remarks

If no one's ever told you this, then listen clear
Your heart is pure
Sacred love lives in your mirror
These aren't my ideas
Homie, this is the new frontier

This is what's always been here
We're the lovers of the Earth
And those silly humans too
Such a simple concept that we misconstrue and convolute

The last 10,000 years we've grown increasingly rotten
Spoiled little children through what technology brought them

Human supremacy casting shadows on all of creation
Globalization of an alien-nation further estranging divine relations
Social constructs proclaiming reason
For millenniums of domination and disgrace

Soulless nonsense pointing fingers
For our collective mistakes
Delusions give way as the world breaks
Sandcastles wash away as the Earthquakes

And humanity finally learns their place
Was there ever another way?

I can finally see the truth
Of what it is we're here to do
We're the lovers of the Earth
And those silly humans too
It's true
It's you
