We Dominate

RXYZYXR


Conscious, awake, and aware of the world
Gazing in eyes just like mine
Life is sacred, no matter the form
Communion, creation, divine
So many degrees of separation
Between the slaughterhouse and the store
Ignorant of what we consume
Too ashamed to look at the source

Malicious mantra of might making
Right erodes our humanity
(The line's been drawn)
Fashionable furs, foie gras on a plate
Lays bare the absence of empathy
(The line's been drawn)

Our anthropocentric perspective
A tyrannical philosophy
(The line's been drawn)
We pretend that we're the most
Important to excuse atrocities
(The line's been drawn)

Just because we're dominant
Doesn't mean we should dominate
Just because we can destroy
Does not mean we should not create
Placing ourselves on a pedestal like we inherited the earth
We're tied to the same cycle of death and new birth
Bury my body so I may return to the land I love
Break down my body into the soil for green grass to grow out of
We come from the same place as all other life down here
Now that I've made the connection I have nothing else to fear

The flesh you grind between your teeth
The blood that falls on farmers' feet
A dagger drawn to kill the calf, drink the milk, don the skin
Hen debeaked and farmed for eggs
When she runs dry we eat her legs
A worm is a bird is a dog is a man
It's all the same
Organic cycle before life began
It's all the same, exactly the same lifeform

Bury my body so I may return to the land I love
Break down my body into the soil for green grass to grow out of
We come from the same place as all other life down here
Now that I've made the connection I have nothing else to fear
