Being Exemplary lyrics
Song information
Artist: Shai Hulud Album: That Within Blood Ill-Tempered
Lyrics
And this is what shall come to pass A new precept for the world to adopt And this is what the children shall learn..
Prepare for the lowest standard Rough diamonds in the palms of fools Unable to give the crucial gift of reason
The unwise teaching wisdom The absurd defining priority Fools, unable to give the crucial gift of reason
What more can be expected of a child Being a product of the stark worst - Its fathers blood
Censure rightly; Make no mistake The ascendants They are veritably criminal
Fare thee well Down the random path of chance
Godspeed
Set sail Against the wind Under the misguiding light of faulty beacons
Set sail Against the wind With vices for virtues Dishonor for ethics And excess for etiquette As examples -
Such sorry examples
And what of the children..
Ignorant of it's weight Blind to it's worth
Something is terribly amiss When the beauty and the miracle of new life Is nothing but a burden
This burden is a life This burden is a child
Men without dedication Speaking of truth and loyalty Women without conviction Teaching respect and compassion
No
And what of the children..
