Whoa, these lyrics are messed up in some crucial places. Here's how it should go:
I am the future
I am metaphor for war
I take my medicine as I'm praying on all fours
We sit in fields of rust, Corinthian and time
I'm synthesis in motion
I am freedom and decline
Raise me to shine like an orchid from the cracks
Wash me aside when my levees finally break
In opposition we are never free
When our cause becomes our slavery
The poet and the warrior
The future or the way we were
Stand and rise up, we all know
The secret to the life we chose
So we are
I am law to save me from from who I am
I am love spent then reborn again
We are orchid torn away
All is forgiven when we pay
The poet and the warrior
The future or the way we were
Stand down rise up, we all know
The secret to the life you chose
Stand down rise up, we all know
Stand down rise up, we all know
