L y r i c s:
So Called Holy Ladders
by Crystal Eastman
The common man has become intelligent
I hear him explain to the ocean
He's says leaders send us off to battle
For some petty fancy frill
But they tell us
It's for things righteous
But I can see
They are lying to me
Thieves stealing spirit with so-called holy ladders
They build their throne
Bone by bone
The country bumpkin has conquered ignorance
I hear him exclaim to the ocean
He says fifty trademarks bark at me
Blocking my sight to the sea
Industry vows to make me happy
But I can see
They are lying to me
Thieves stealing spirit with so-called holy ladders
They build their throne
Bone by bone
The man unlearned now knows to discern
I hear him whisper to a juniper
He says many a fake spiritual master
Pretends to understand forever
But to make us believers they turn us into haters
But I can see they are lying to me
Thieves stealing spirit
With so-called holy ladders
They build their throne bone by bone
But not my own
I will not build their thrown.
