Makeshift Kingdom - Sweatshop Union

Welcome to my Makeshift Kingdom

Spaceship engines

Inca, Maya

Lakota, Tsimshian

Africa risin

Middle East churning

We don’t give a fuck, let the griddle keep burning

Truth be told we nuclear souls

Indigo, in the cold, new to these zones

Carbon based body make a suitable home

My temporary temple, I’m soon to be gone

Fly, pelican fly to the moon

Jupiter, Lucifer, high from the shroom

Underworld chilling with Osiris and gloom

You in the jungle running like Elijah’s platoon

Watch us rise from the tomb

Crystaline dreams civilized the baboon

You liars are doomed

I’m standing in the fire screaming I am the truth, let’s go

Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome

Welcome to my Makeshift Kingdom

Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome

Welcome to my Makeshift Kingdom

Everything that was

Everything that is

Everything that will be, everything is this

Welcome to my Makeshift

Welcome to my Makeshift

Welcome to my Makeshift Kingdom

None of it even matters

Cause we ain’t even matter

We taking it making it

Just from repeating patterns

Reenactments

Trying to see some truth

But it’s buried far deeper than we can reach and path this

The same fabric of space we inhabit where we imagine these elaborate dreams

And haven’t even ever seen

A fraction

Of what we really are

It’s silly all we care about is cash and

Other such attachments

Keeping our minds absent

And inactive

Trapped in the same place we have been for so long

Confusing territories with the maps in our minds

Too distracted to find where the path is

Blind to the vastness

Trying to move forward just inclined to go backwards

Time just elapses

Searching for the side where the grass is

Greener 'til we leave our bodies lying in a casket

Whatever happens, happens

Whatever doesn’t, doesn’t

I guess it is what it is, what it was wasn’t

What I thought it was, it wasn’t what I thought it wasn’t

What I thought it was, it wasn’t what I thought it wasn’t

Whatever happens, happens

Whatever doesn’t, doesn’t

I guess it is what it is, what it was wasn’t

What I thought it was, it wasn’t what I thought it wasn’t
