aetheric

the word that has been spoken

through time and time again

is the light that inhabits our voice

the light that keeps us aflame

all retrospection is invalid

as we've been fed disdain

confined to the fence of knowledge

we need to die

die again

to govern thyself

you must know your darkness

to govern thyself

you must know your past

all rise and fall

all is internal

all eternal

all rise and fall

all is internal

all eternal

all rise and fall

controlling matter with will

we withstand every storm

in and out of exile

spirit

matter and form

to govern thyself

you must know your darkness

to govern thyself

you must know your past
