Electric Mile

I've been trapped on the electric mile

How long can you last when your words come fast

And withstand

The quicksand of Babaland

Gripping on your throat just like the Grim Reaper

Dragging you deeper and deeper

Filling up your mouth with the sand

Now you understand, understand

I've been trapped on the electric mile

But you can do it

Time to stand as a man

When the Devils hold your trial

Hold light in your hand

And in your eyes

No comprimise

Can be seen

Just a glimmer of golden gleam

Like false dreams, temptations fade

In the rays of the morning

Now can't you feel your heart

Is soaring when you know

You've reached elevations

Above and beyond

Now help another brother from the mud

And carry on

Come along with me and seize the day

I've been trapped on the electric mile

And they try to keep me down

And they try to keep me down

And they try to keep me down

Lo and behold

Now the story's told

Why the Devils come close

To try and steal your soul

But keep them wrapped in eleven cloaks

At higher hieghts

So deep in the light

That it's blinding the night

And binding together the souls of light

Into the tapestries of the gods

The colors are rich

Blues and greens

All of the light

That shines between

The earth and the sun

Will make the Devil run

When he's heard you've read these words

I've been trapped on the electric mile...
