This is a song, to all people who have not yet experienced becoming conscious. To all people who live by patriarchal society ways, which are the ways of "fantasy" versus what "reality" is. Lauryn has become conscious to the true reality, and now the fantasy part of her life is in the past. Because she realized, Adam, which is all humanity with his ego, thinks he has it all figured out. Cut off from the Source from hath he's come to be. Raising his kids to believe like him. Then there is Eve and she also succumbs to the plight of this world, lacking true meaning which can only be found in truly loving one's self, others as thyself, and the Source. Their children too have been subjected to the poison, being of the unconscious world. By pretending everything is okay, they are in denial and are not able to contemplate the answer. We are taught from the beginning to "hate the truth and love the lies. Stop walking in pride", let your ego die. Unlearn all that we have learned and let your inner self be the teacher. Say goodbye to society's archaic dying ways. The Source wants to know how far we are willing to go for Him. Don't waiver in your convictions, stay strong, "Once He's satisfied His love, He will not deny us." He will guide us and tells us what to do next, if we would only listen and believe in His ways. Only through Him, is where we find true meaning in life.
