(Zion Saga, Part 1)
I, like the bush,
I burn from inside out
But do not be afraid
My spirit is an ardent flame
Listen to my essence shout
Come now, up to my plateau
Up here, where the wild ones go
You'll yearn to let your inhibitions go
And learn to let your feelings show
Look into my woody thicket
Stare into its sinewy essence
Here and now, my prickly presence
Exists only for you
I, like the bush,
Mesmerize, with smokeless flame
Analyze, saying, "YOU are to blame!"
Hypnotize, your awestruck eyes
Criticize, recreate, shed your shame
I'll send you, with a push
Red-gold, hot licks glowing
To heaven, ember angels soaring
Your soul's strength restoring
The Spirit in you, you adoring
You now, are burning alive
But you are not afraid
For a force of you I have made
You are standing on sacred ground
