CATharsis by Prince Zuko Lyrics
What does it mean to be free?
Is it the absence of necessity, coercion or constraint in choice or action?
Or is it to be entirely independent, untethered by the influence of another being?
What does it mean to be free?
Is it to be unchained by the masters, allowed to live without oppression under an iron fist?
Or is it to pledge allegiance to the flag, the republic for which it stands
Onе nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all
What doеs it mean to be free?
Is it stand detached from possession, with no desire for belonging
Or is it to stand at the edge of what we understand
And seek what we could never truly know
Within the abyss
Swimming in circles
Hold your breath until you're turning purple
Watch commercials sow their seeds inside your settled seasoned soil
Catching controversial sparks inside your copper coated coils
Now your farm can bear no fruit to feed your faulty frizzled kernal
And your soul is left to wander off through somber fields with virgil
'Til the day you choose the path that lets you focus on the journey
Everything will be alright if you should find yourself to worry
Go in peace, in pacce ades
It's that big-brain cat-jam-tastic
Here to keep it real speaking semi-automatic
Fire up the cannon fully loaded with schematics
Standing on the edge living larger than a mastiff
Waking up at 5:55 in the morning
See me on the jog while the town still snoring
Acta non verba
Gotta live according
This my own trip, you see me transforming
Analyze myself from the past and the present
Watching how I grow with each new lesson
Ignorance is bliss but I struggle with depression
Writing up a list counting every single blessing
Living with a purpose, living with a reason
Know that this is worth it, even through the seasons
A long way from perfect, battling my demons
No I don't deserve it, still I'm out here dreaming, yeah
Is it the absence of necessity, coercion or constraint in choice or action?
Or is it to be entirely independent, untethered by the influence of another being?
What does it mean to be free?
Is it to be unchained by the masters, allowed to live without oppression under an iron fist?
Or is it to pledge allegiance to the flag, the republic for which it stands
Onе nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all
What doеs it mean to be free?
Is it stand detached from possession, with no desire for belonging
Or is it to stand at the edge of what we understand
And seek what we could never truly know
Within the abyss
Swimming in circles
Hold your breath until you're turning purple
Watch commercials sow their seeds inside your settled seasoned soil
Catching controversial sparks inside your copper coated coils
Now your farm can bear no fruit to feed your faulty frizzled kernal
And your soul is left to wander off through somber fields with virgil
'Til the day you choose the path that lets you focus on the journey
Everything will be alright if you should find yourself to worry
Go in peace, in pacce ades
It's that big-brain cat-jam-tastic
Here to keep it real speaking semi-automatic
Fire up the cannon fully loaded with schematics
Standing on the edge living larger than a mastiff
