lyrics

Truth, the quality or state of being
Is than just an opinion of what is or isn't true for you
Relativism is the schism of the current culture
blind eye to the knife at truths throat and the circling vultures
Knowledge isn't dependent on just the context given
To say theres absolutely no absolutes is a contradiction
Can truth be known? The skeptics say we'll make mistakes
But to be mistaken means that theres a truth in the first place

In order to make you aware
(so you will know, you will know, you will know)
The greatest truth of all is the love from high made low
(from high made low) x2

Irrationallity is accepted as rational
The sickness with us for ages but recent outbreaks spreading national
Proclaiming equality and freedom for humanity
while believing that a baby is a quantity not an entity
Crying out for justice no foundation for appeal
how can you cry for what is wrong when you deny there's anything real
Freedom is lost not only when taken from you
but when subjected to continuous devastating abuse

In order to make you aware
(so you will know, you will know, you will know)
The greatest truth of all is the love from high made low
(from high made low) x2

Oh sleeper rise up from the dead
A light has dawned to free you from your broken head
(walk in the light, in the light
walk in the light while the light makes visible)
