[Verse 1]
Thru the rhythm of darkened times
Painted black by knowledge crimes
And repetition's pointless mime
Instilling values the sick define
That weaves the fabric that keeps you blind
And ties your hands and cloaks your mind
But on my stilts, I'm above the slime
[Chorus 1]
Come on up
If you can make the climb
But who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
[Verse 2]
I've smelled the stench from the fumes that rise
From the books that rehash the same old lies
I've felt the panic that they disguise
In the forms of laws of every size
I've heard the teachers whining
Make you drop out like flies
But you know they teach you nonsense
'Cause they can't blind your eyes
I've seen the fools gold
They pawn off as their prize
Thru the rhythm of darkened times
Painted black by knowledge crimes
And repetition's pointless mime
Instilling values the sick define
That weaves the fabric that keeps you blind
And ties your hands and cloaks your mind
But on my stilts, I'm above the slime
[Chorus 1]
Come on up
If you can make the climb
But who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
[Verse 2]
I've smelled the stench from the fumes that rise
From the books that rehash the same old lies
I've felt the panic that they disguise
In the forms of laws of every size
I've heard the teachers whining
Make you drop out like flies
But you know they teach you nonsense
'Cause they can't blind your eyes
I've seen the fools gold
They pawn off as their prize
