They say we exist in rivers of fate Predetermine pathways we are imprisoned in Positions we were born for And to disturb or ignore such strings Would undermine the order of those things I say we are free form individuals With endless paths before and between us That the reason they want to bind us to fate Is because they want to blind us To the weight of our own power To makes us wait for divine intervention Instead of having us pay attention To our intentions and the intention of others The wealthy and religious classes Want to politically castrate men and women Till we are to impotent with diffidence Unable to make any sort of difference But that framework doesn’t fit this World that we seven billion strong have been gifted with We have more power then we know And it only grows when we explode And show it to everyone else

The Empowerment
They say we exist in rivers of fate Predetermine pathways we are imprisoned in Positions we were born for And to disturb or ignore such strings Would undermine the order of those things I say we are free form individuals With endless paths before and between us That the reason they want to bind us to fate Is because they want to blind us To the weight of our own power To makes us wait for divine intervention Instead of having us pay attention To our intentions and the intention of others The wealthy and religious classes Want to politically castrate men and women Till we are to impotent with diffidence Unable to make any sort of difference But that framework doesn’t fit this World that we seven billion strong have been gifted with We have more power then we know And it only grows when we explode And show it to everyone else
