Paula Cole - Rhythm Of Life Lyrics
To the critics and the cynics who dont understand the lyricsTo the atheists and the pessimistsWanting company in their darknessYou may see me as a fool,yes,a charlatan,an egotist,But Id rather be this in your eyes,Than a coward in hisI began as isis, the high priestessMy arms stretched to sirius,me,the serpent venus,Awaken the fetus,fertility to jesus,Come and meet us (you are the seed in us)Looking within I can see beyond my sightThe cities, the sky, the planets roll byI awake and die, I awake and I die, yeahThis is the rhythm of lifeNext I was lightning, God energy fightingTo tell my widow surviving, I was still alive inAnother plane of life n I struck hime seven timesHe finally looked to the sky,Shed a tear and joined me dyingLooking within,i can see beyond my sightThe cities, the sky, the planets roll byI awake and I die, I awake and I die, yeahThis is the rhythm of lifeRhythm of life, rhythm of life, this is the the rhythm of lifeNow I am me, in diffident lead,responsibility,Trying to face my fear,from the trailer park to hearOver mountains, through my death,From harbinger to amen.May my actions outweigh my wordsMay my lifetime be of worthLooking within I can see beyond my sightThe cities, the sky, the planets roll byI awake and I die, I awake and I die, yeahThis is the rhythm of lifeAll the worlds a stage,And all the men and women,Merely playersThey have their exits,And their entrancesAnd one man in his time.Plays many parts
