Invertebrate Lyrics

Course Of Empire Invertebrate

Innocents are here with me in prisons that I know
Many men have built them, and never let them go
My father is a victim of a seed he didn't grow
Prisons of a pride too strong, that never let him go
Today I finally listened to a man I barely know
I spoke to him from prison, where the memory is old
Of abandoned women christened in the shadow of gold
They're here with me in prison pouring blood into the hole
I feel the pull of gravity, it pulls me out of slavery
I feel the pull of gravity, the evidence is in the seed
Here's to the man I remember, he was there for awhile
Pushing us around
Here's to the man that f..cked my mother, he was gone
Before my brother ever heard a sound
Now that I'm awake I hold the truth, I hold the past
I hold the truth that I can take to better days than this
