[00:04.15]\r
[00:08.10]lrc by Jermen\r
[00:14.23]That was as far as the tide came in \r
[00:16.73]I remember the starfish and the wails of the sirens then \r
[00:21.58]We replaced the tridents, embraced Poseidon \r
[00:25.34]Discovered ourselves living on an island \r
[00:29.25]We flow like water cross the lost city \r
[00:31.04]Chalk prophecies and washed off graffiti \r
[00:32.72]In continents, trade off for payoff \r
[00:34.43]And high concepts then lost to K-Os \r
[00:3***3]Many tales radiate from one nexus \r
[00:37.98]Defending a dream of a new directive \r
[00:39.72]A call from the deep sums up a notion \r
[00:41.49]The day when the people bum-rushed the ocean \r
[00:43.51]From the beaches they \r
[00:44.97]Ran to meet the day after \r
[00:46.89]Underneath, the waves \r
[00:48.29]Wont repeat the same chapter \r
[00:50.46]Knew what they had to do \r
[00:54.49]That which creates life \r
[00:59.04]Has power to take it right back \r
[01:00.85]****ing with the icecaps \r
[01:02.90]We gotta push the tide back \r
[01:04.74]We can survive, collapse if we dont get sidetracked \r
[01:08.56]\r
[01:08.84]If we visualize living underwater hidden by prisms \r
[01:11.66]Countries fall but people transition \r
[01:14.57]If one for all, we live in that vision \r
[01:15.35]Hundred dollar bill Origami \r
[01:17.21]Balloon inflation, new world economy \r
[01:18.87]\r
[01:19.09]We float on tsunami to global warming \r
[01:20.90]We need structures to control whats coming \r
[01:22.66]Corporate monopolies obsolete \r
[01:24.55]The philosophy leaves us lost at sea \r
[01:26.01]\r
[01:26.65]But from Marwar to Cochabamba \r
[01:28.17]We are the warriors that wont get conquered \r
[01:30.48]\r
[01:31.59]Cause rising tides drown all villages \r
[01:33.35]Divided fighters succumb to pillage \r
[01:35.37]Rescuers whatever your latitude \r
[01:37.13]Its time to pioneer a new world attitude \r
[01:37.86]Put local cycles first were Global \r
[01:38.86]Islanders with nothing left to plunder \r
[01:46.91]\r
[01:51.89]From the beaches they \r
[01:52.86]Ran to meet the day after \r
[01:54.92]Underneath, the waves \r
[01:56.26]Wont repeat the same chapter \r
[01:58.45]Knew what they had to do \r
[02:04.19]\r
[02:05.85]For centuries \r
[02:06.71]Human beings have pursued the meaning of Atlantis \r
[02:09.42]Central to their teaching is that its existence \r
[02:12.11]Answers mans essential questions \r
[02:14.41]Much like the feeding of the five thousand \r
[02:16.53]Even if the facts arent accurate, the storys magic is alive \r
[02:20.23]Of utmost importance to convert the impertinent \r
[02:23.52]Atlantis holds the answer to mans ills at their most pertinent \r
[02:27.12]Aspersions easily dispersed when I certainly answer \r
[02:30.66]The most diverse aversions when I firstly channel \r
[02:34.38]Is this all that you hold for a warriors role? \r
[02:37.57]The ground shakes, you claim my country, not my soul \r
[02:40.96]I fought, I toiled for the lost in the waves \r
[02:44.54]And I will not tire, Ill die no slave \r
[02:48.50]If the seas my grave \r
[02:50.07]I sleep with my city, my people, my oath, my shame, my city \r
[02:55.62]Is that I cannot save my city from the waves that claim you \r
[02:59.89]And curse the Gods who cant explain who to blame \r
[03:03.62]At the end of the reign, heed me \r
[03:06.55]The season passes Atlas, his keeps in the sediment \r
[03:10.08]Failing monumentally and leaving no monuments to see \r
[03:14.43]Only sea to shining sea \r
[03:19.58]\r
[03:25.24]And survival hinged on the ascent by the humble \r
[03:36.06]And the sirens wailed as the empire crumbled \r
[03:40.23]With nothing to plunder, corporations drowned \r
[03:42.90]Waves clapped like thunder and stormed the gates with sound \r
[03:46.20]Forming a new nation now \r
[03:48.85]\r
[03:50.30]As the icecaps melted water levels rose \r
[03:53.27]We raised our hands together and made the levees hold \r
[03:56.85]Heels in the sand, we revealed the depths below \r
[04:01.19]The population of starfish exploded from the ocean \r
[04:04.75]Survival, we unified to focus on \r
[04:08.06]And the voices were many but we spoke as one \r
[04:11.09]\r
[04:11.76]As the tale was retold, we multiplied \r
[04:14.77]And swelled across the fault lines to halt the tide \r
[04:18.68]We let the altars die to keep our pulse alive \r
[04:22.29]\r
[04:22.55]And from the barren wastelands of naked trash \r
[04:25.64]We stitched together, a shelter from fallen nations flags \r
[04:29.11]And chose to build a future from an ancient past \r
[04:32.82]\r
[04:33.03]The crowns of thorns was worn, we put the Tritons down \r
[04:36.35]We found new forms of anchors deep inside the ground \r
[04:40.01]The world is an island now\r
