Lyrics
The Foundation
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We are all ready to read. Just as we are born knowing what we like
Spreading the words of the soup and rice, that exist in this Earth. Yeah.
Spreading the words of the soup and rice, that exist in this Earth. Yeah.
It is difficult to associate these horrors
with the proud civilizations that created them.
Sparta, Rome, the knights of Europe, the Samurai.
They worship strength because it is strength
that makes all other valuables possible.
He is a foundation of creation
He is a foundation of creation
He is a foundation of creation
He is a foundation of creation
Storm, typhoon, tidal wave, and our tempest of
roaring elements from creation to this side of the Ganesha.
Storm, typhoon, tidal wave, and our tempest of
roaring elements from creation to this side of the Ganesha.
Telling the world of the soup and the rice that existed in this Earth
Storm, typhoon, tidal wave, and our tempest of
roaring elements from creation to this side of the Ganesha.
