The Mentor

from Joseph Phase by Animal Pharma

/

lyrics

Verse
The mentor ain’t dead yet
But he’s grizzled on a rock
And he has no students left

Have you read the texts yet?
The code he cracked to build
Has spilt like runny egg

For the books are useless
If they’re sitting to be read
But they decorate instead

Could you make it through this?
‘Cause the others need tuition
If the way is not to end

The way of life depends on…

Chorus
If you see just past the curtain
Rulers and illusions see their needs’ll still be met
How do I untangle this confusion of the mind?
And use this wasted time to turn the tide and choose to rise
And save this stupid mantle no one bothered to reprise?
You know it ain’t alright when the mentor waves bye bye
The mentor waves bye bye
The mentor waves bye bye
The mentor waves bye bye

Verse
Is the mentor dead yet?
Well, it looks like he’s still breathing
We don’t know if he’ll be leaving
Preach the sacred teachings
‘Cause there’s kids brought up on nothing
Knowing something’s wrong
Uncuff ‘em from predestined thinking
They’re untaught to form their questions
An onslaught of unlearned lessons
Meant to teach the children
Is the mentor even listening?
If the way is not to end

The way of life depends on if you…

Chorus
