Form Subtract - Beyond the Self Lyrics

Open your eyes
These tainted words make us blind
There's more to life beyond labels and signs
There's no black white, the narrative told is a lie
Our paths aligned to destroy all life

Step up
Can you hear me?
Listen to these words
There's something running deeper
My words cannot describe
What's seen with the mind's eye
From here a silver lining
Can be seen
We are one conscious being
Distracted in this duality

We're all on one side
We fight so we can identify
One from one another
Separation is the prize
What does it really mean
To be so unique?
We creating dissonance between
Pushing the limits of our link

Coordination
A certain effort to define us by the immutable
Cooperation
To put you in your place with motherf*cking race
Coordination
A single entity devoted to division among us all
Go ahead and sort us all

I stand on the shoulder of giants
From here I see a silver lining
We're sharing the same life
Hearts beating unified
The universe is realised
I'm on the shoulder of giants

These tainted words make us blind
There's more to life beyond labels and signs
There's no black white, the narrative told is a lie
Our paths aligned to destroy all life

The universe
A projections of the mind
Behind the fear and doubts, the narrative and the lies
Fear born from the ego
Afraid to be alone
Channelling a single consciousness
A universal mind
Of course we feel alone
God is alone

I'm cutting ties with everyone
Finally untangling the web of comparisons
In the end I know I only gotta learn to love myself
When I do that, it goes beyond the self
If I'm looking externally for self-esteem
I'm not realising that love comes from deep within
Humble enough to accept my mistake
As I climb onto the shoulder of the greats

I stand on the shoulder of giants
From here I see a silver lining
We're sharing the same life
Hearts beating unified
The universe is realised
I'm on the shoulder of giants

The universe a projection of the mind
Behind the fear the doubts, the narrative and the lies
I feel alive
Channelling a single consciousness, a universal mind
Of course we feel alone
God is alone

Don't you yearn to be colorblind?
Oppose their weak interpretation
Of the nuance in our lives
A system standing complacent
I'd rather replace/erase it
For the sake of in mind
For the fate of all mankind
