Carvakas - Cynic Philosophy Lyrics

To make from simplicity a virtue
Proposing an insolent knowledge
Destroying the mythologies
Denouncing the wiles

They were not slaves
Of anything or anyone
In the small universe
Of his playful existence

Smiling spectators
Of the social machinery
Anarchists without god or master
They were artist-philosophers

No oppressive beliefs
Pagan and satirical atheism
No masks, no rules
Away from civilization

Fun, irreverence, provocation
Courage, profanity, autonomy

Travelers and wandering poets
Fighting against tradition
They adjusted the word to the act
Fragmenting the structures

Rebellion, freedom, insurrection
Feast, resistance and irony

Inventors
Destroyers
Educators
Hedonists
