God

does an animal hay a sayel
can it rise above
can it sacrifice itsel'
fur the ones it loves

induce me we' pleasure
reject me we' pain
is there any compassion
in a reptilian brain

fight or flight
i dinne' want te die
can an insect or snake
mourn,cry

'sorry for inturrupting the programming
but we have breaking news
you're mind is the cosmos
god is you

May Day

the call themsel's enlightened ones
yet shun the light
profess unification
but will never unite

possess infinite knowledge
but what do they know
this illuminati
hoo' dim their glow
