Six Sirens
Eternal Struggle: Unveiling Life's Battle Beyond
Lyrics
And now I sit in thought as the plot of my days commences,
Contemplating the unfolding of my life
And I'm left with fences
Left with barriers or obstacles
Put off the thoughts of my end so long to race
Delaying thoughts of my own mortality to pursue trends
To chase after the trend so fleeting
Pursuing transient trends
Hours pass unsettled, unresolved my passions
Time passes without resolution of my passions
I scrape to win a new day to waste
Struggling to achieve a new day with no purpose
Misaligned priorities parallel my desires
Conflicting priorities hinder my true desires
I hide my eyes to avoid embrace
Avoiding emotional connections
I smell the stench, unavoidable approach comes against
Recognizing an approaching unavoidable negativity or challenge
And yet I'm left asking the question
Questioning the impending challenge
Denied a way to defend the thoughts
Denied the ability to defend certain thoughts
That this side equates with what awaits
Equating one side of life with its consequences
I'm ripping right through the masses, sacrifice into ashes
Overcoming challenges, sacrificing the old self
Giving up what was past tense, raising up like Lazarus
Letting go of the past and experiencing rebirth
I laugh at the strongman who thought he had control
Mocking those who think they control everything
A hold on my eternity-eternal is Christ empowers me
Claiming strength from eternal faith in Christ
Like the faith that builds my strength
Strength derived from faith similar to fading dreams
Is like your dreams that fade away
Life's battles like the fading dreams
The battlefields we soldiers play
Engaging in life's struggles as soldiers on a battlefield
I dance with life beyond the grave
Embracing life beyond death
And Jah knows that I will never rest my head
Determined not to rest or be complacent
No time for us to sleep
No time for rest or idleness
We concentrate on the son until our eyes bleed
Focused on the divine until exhaustion
Salvation carries a cost, we must prevail
Acknowledging the price of salvation
Death creeps like the breeze, but have no fear, watch me inhale
Confronting death with courage
Temporary bliss, the depths await my burial as the hours seem as seconds
Transient happiness with impending deeper challenges
The end of your bliss is coming, face the path and sip the last
Anticipating the end of momentary joy, facing reality
Embrace ends-every day a new day to die
Accepting each day as a step towards inevitable death
Diestime-the former life is past
Recognizing the end of a former life
Blindside-I know what awaits my fate
Understanding what fate awaits
Hastebreath-unavoidable ceasing of days
Acknowledging the unavoidable end of days
Today is a good day to die
Embracing the present as an opportune time to face mortality
