The Pawn
Unveiling the Chessboard of Life: The Prisma Flower Band's 'The Pawn' Meaning
Lyrics
Just a pawn of luck
Feeling controlled by chance or fate
Marching down a wooden war
Participating in a conflict manipulated by external forces
Orchestrated by powers unknown
Guided by unknown influential powers
To kill the king
To overthrow the established authority
Transparent peace to bring
Attempting to establish a superficial tranquility
Never once cared what's behind the throne
Ignoring what lies beyond power structures
Always takes the chance
Embracing opportunities without concern for consequences
An addict to ignorance
Hooked on unawareness
But it comes with a price
Blindness has a cost
To roll the dice
Taking risks
To roll the dice
Repeatedly gambling with fate
The devil's device
Metaphor for temptation or a dangerous tool
Oh little pawn
Addressing the powerless position
Beware
Be cautious
The time will come you'll have
There will be a moment requiring boldness
To dare
Be brave enough to look closely
To see
To comprehend
What it is
Unpleasant truths
You don't want to know
Hidden realities
What it is that's behind this wooden throne
Discover what supports authority
Now raise your mighty blade
Rise and confront
And fight against the shade
Combat the shadows, make choices
Cut your strings and choose which way to go
Break free from manipulation and decide your path
Steps of black and white
Contrasting elements influencing life
Luck and fate collide
Chance and destiny collide and intertwine
As unraveling beings they fight
Conflicting identities engage in struggle
Oh blessed be the ignorants
Praising those who remain unaware
They find and stare the cause
They discover and confront the root causes
Of golden shades of bronze
Valuing superficial beauty
Remember this game my pawn
Remember the rules of the game you're in
Remember this game my pawn
Repeated emphasis on understanding the game's rules
Is not played with dice
Highlighting the absence of random chance
Is not played with dice
Emphasizing the absence of random chance
the devil's device
Metaphor for the seduction of risky choices
Oh and it struck
Struck by the consequences of foolishness
Foolishness
Reiterating the foolishness of actions
The time is always now
Present moment is crucial for observation
To witness everything
To observe and comprehend reality as it is
As it is
Understanding the natural flow of life
As it flows joyfully
To break away from the constructed game
Step out from this game to break free
To destroy the established system of control
Let it be burned to the ground
To let the truth be revealed
By the dance of clarity
Metaphor for clarity bringing about revelation
