You think you can appease or please the gods who placed you in these chains? These chains were forged from years of work So why suppose you can merely shake and **** these mental chains to earth like dirt? In prison cells you train your mind To leave the walls and bars behind In spite of tablets etched in law And dictates of those gods of yore Through heaven’s gate to evermore The free man In his bliss does soar.

THE FREE MAN IN HIS BLISS
You think you can appease or please the gods who placed you in these chains? These chains were forged from years of work So why suppose you can merely shake and **** these mental chains to earth like dirt? In prison cells you train your mind To leave the walls and bars behind In spite of tablets etched in law And dictates of those gods of yore Through heaven’s gate to evermore The free man In his bliss does soar.
