Samsaric Refuge by Son of Saturn Lyrics
[Verse 1]
God give me strength I hear these words echo over and over
The path is simplified intensified and closer
To the truth I been avoiding
I needed darkness to take me, completely, defeat me, stomp me outta my weakness
Believe this, I had no other choice or I'd have taken it
Been running on this tight rope with no fear of breaking it`
I stay a drift, misery
Living with no safety net
I placed my bets and luck my way through suffering uncovering the light again
When crashing in Poseidon’s wind the silent glimpse of love came to save me
The subtlest of substances so brilliant in its radiance
Humility has made me limp but whole again
A million dreams are played at once
And so we'll bend like light through a prism
Knowing that it's only then the cycle is hindered
Imma fight to the ending
By giving the only right I try to extend
It’s mice n men, its life or death, its discipline
It's time to dead the cyanide regrets and let forgiveness send this pendulum of right and wrong
Inside is gone, im left with wisdom living on
Confusion lynched and hitched along
From whiskey dented fists and songs
Of anger finding god again in chambers of the beast
After 8 days in the hole I was exposed to defeat
Seeing all that I had sacrificed I pacified my need
My clinging and my greed, reaching deep within my dying soul I tore out the disease
On the floor on my knees tears pouring down my cheeks
I swore that I would be a better man who would bring a better plan and death would have to wait for my body at least
Because my soul was at the gate growing old with every taste
Insanely wasting in the weight
Of consumption something changed though
Death and birth occurred in meditation like a rainbow
Looking to the sky was blinded with the sight of halo's
Angels watching over me
And holding me in cages making transmutation possible
Now holding the philosophers stone
Soul and methodical
Motion, growing through obstacles
Throwing out the bibles of old and off to new articles
Sit with gold and volatile
The docile and aggressive nature not the prya sword
The diabolical possessed the language necessary to ingest the berries of this message evident that it was heaven sent directed to the adepts said cross the causal swords
The bodhisavvra's and the lords of nirvana Kiah sores
By précising through this curse of mind inviting us
The exodus enlightenment
The eight-fold path unfolding in a suffering environment
Been trying to avoid it but no longer could ignore it
[verse 2]
I push and pull with enormous
Strength but it wouldn't budge
3 voices beckon me from the 3 poisons with love
Now hovering above me something of a subtle substance
Suddening a discovery
A matchstick scratch quick tossed in the blackness
Perhaps it was a last switch when that switch was thrown
This particular mechanism I speak of was known
To influence past decisions badly gladly it is gone now
Ask me if I've fallen down crash and I have dropped my crown
But im doing better now
Letting down the foggy shroud follows the sound
Of the voice of the voiceless
So next time I'm at that fork in the road it'll be choice less
God give me strength I hear these words echo over and over
The path is simplified intensified and closer
To the truth I been avoiding
I needed darkness to take me, completely, defeat me, stomp me outta my weakness
Believe this, I had no other choice or I'd have taken it
Been running on this tight rope with no fear of breaking it`
I stay a drift, misery
