Ring 6 - LoTown

Raised routinely to believe

We've a narrowed purpose we can't contravene

Blessed is the obligation

Anything unique is blasphemy

They need more mouths to feed

Some of us fall off the path

Make our decisions never looking back

Autonomy's short-lived, they don't forgive

And so, we're damned by autocrats

To feed the mouths in need

But the quotas are too much

The yields not enough

We work our hardest, but

The basins drying up

And they deny that simple truth

They seem determined, resolute

To fail

We're held beneath the monolith

Of their manipulation

We exist

Entangled in creation

Hypocrites

Too often make decisions

Raring to quote a God

To get what they want

Down here we all grow anything we want to

And every single bloom's a victory

Any joy you can find is encouraged by the Consistery

Down here we share the weight of every burden

But every sister is your devotee

Whoever you were, when you come here, it's ancient history

We're held beneath the monolith

Of their manipulation

We exist

Entangled in creation

Hypocrites

Too often make decisions

Raring to quote a God

We're held beneath the monolith

We exist

Hypocrites

Too often make decisions

Raring to quote a God

To get what they want

From down here

The sunlight rarely warms the ice enough to break a sweat

But nothing rivals just how cold another's judgment gets

This bit of distance sure does hush those holy epithets

From down here

The city's voices bounce around till nothing's clear at all

So we dissociate from anyone who's never made the fall

You'll never get us until you're with us, down here

Down here

Down here
