subhas - malabar lyrics

this is the greatest story never told
this is the greatest story never told
this is…

what i do not burn will burn me back
what i do not burn will burn me back
what i do not burn will burn me back
what i do not burn will burn me back
what i do not burn will bring me back
memories i don’t want to remember

you see sometimes we have to burn
we have to burn our trauma
burn what we know
we have to burn now
burn while we can
but everything we are running away from
because when the inferno comes
therе will be no chance to burn
therе will be no chance to burn

ah, ah, ah…
ah, ah, ah…
ah, ah, ah…

i am the angelus novus
as i look back on the wreckage that is
i see debris. piling skyward
i would like to stay, awaken the dead
and make whole what has been smashed
but a storm is blowing
a storm is blowing from paradise

i don’t get to choose

i don’t get to choose if i get to fly, i must go
this storm is what we call progress, and we go with the wind
we are walking backwards into a future we will never be able to see
what has informed the past must inform the present…
there is no such thing as now… [now, now]
there is no such thing as now… [now, now]
there is no such thing as now… [now, now]
we are walking backwards into the future
we are walking backwards into the future
we had no rights, no say
no rights no say, no rights no say
and we long to be free and day

tabula rasa, what we don’t know will k!ll us
tabula rasa, who gets to decide our futures?
tabula rasa, i don’t know my history
tabula rasa, who holds the pen?
who holds the pen?
who holds the torch?

“who is the lighter…..?”
“hubris, saliva”
“who is the lighter…..?”
“hubris, saliva”
“who is the lighter…..?”
“hubris, saliva”
“who is the light?”
my people are disenfranchised from a system that never was built to serve us
this capitalist world where we are the slaves who have built this place yet we are similarly..
kings and queens never recognised for the regal
the reality that we are
the royal regalia will not remain with its people…
who holds the power in today’s society?
not me

reparations? this abomination
