Spiritual Genocide
Journey Through Spiritual Genocide: A Musical Reflection
Lyrics
Let's drop our axes and let's go for a ride
Proposing to set aside conflicts and embark on a journey.
Take Houston Levee deep into the east side
Suggesting a specific route, mentioning Houston Levee and the east side.
Open the T-tops, turn the music up high
Encouraging openness and enjoyment with convertible T-tops and loud music.
I'll take the wheel when you feel like it's too far to drive
Offering to take control when the other person feels incapable of driving.
We can run but we know we can never hide
Acknowledging the inability to escape certain realities despite attempts to evade.
From the truth and the lies of our spiritual genocide
Highlighting the struggle between truth and deception in a spiritual context.
I hear you crying at the foot of the bed
Observing someone's emotional distress without a clear explanation.
I ask what's wrong and you just shake your head
Inquiring about the cause of distress with no verbal response.
Did you not hear a word that my father said?
Referencing the speaker's father's prophecy about the world's grim fate.
He prophesied that the world would be better off dead
Expressing the father's belief that the world would be better off not existing.
He said we can run but we know we can never hide
Reiterating the impossibility of escaping harsh realities despite attempts to flee.
He said we can lie but the truth always comes to the light
Emphasizing the inevitability of truth surfacing despite attempts to conceal it.
Yeah I know we can run but I know we can never hide
A repetition of the idea that one cannot escape from certain truths.
From the truth and the lies of our spiritual genocide
Reiterating the internal struggle between truth and deception in a spiritual context.
My sister called and said you're not well
Informing about a sister's call regarding someone's deteriorating health.
You're in the ICU, your kidneys have failed
Explaining the critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) with kidney failure.
I take a breathe and let out a sigh
Reacting to the news with a deep breath and preparing to cope by driving.
Grab my keys to the car and go for a drive
Using a drive as a coping mechanism in the face of distressing circumstances.
I can run but I know I can never hide
Acknowledging personal inability to escape certain harsh truths.
From the truth and the lies of our spiritual genocide
Reiterating the internal struggle between truth and deception in a spiritual context.
