Self Immolation Lyrics


Grandson Self Immolation

[Verse 1]
Drew their guns on a man on fire
But they'll never put him out when his soul's gone higher
All the ashes remain on the embassy steps
He choked on the smoke with his last breath

[Pre-Chorus]
Kerosene, the revelation
Martyrdom, his meditation

[Chorus]
Self-immolation
Self-immolation
Gas, matchstick
Gas, matchstick
[Verse 2]
The embers burn red
From the bones of a man on a mission
To change the condition
Gettin' close to the edge
I need a lightеr from the Shell gas station
For my demonstration
Through thе system, that's enabled
By indifference and betrayal
Then resistance is on the table
It's inevitable and it's fatal

[Pre-Chorus]
Kerosene, the revelation (I need a lighter from the Shell gas station for my demonstration)
Martyrdom, his meditation

[Chorus]
Self-immolation
Self-immolation
Gas, matchstick
Gas, matchstick
His skin, it peels like plastic

[Instrumental Breakdown]

[Outro]
Bear witness to the oneness of all
