Just One Bite (Fruity Tree, Risen Indeed, You See)

from wHAT by Roxy Radclyffe

/

lyrics

The knowledge, the knowledge
Just a peek while I'm hollow
"Whatcha reading, son?"
Oh, it's nothing much

The authors, the authors
Who's behind where we fall
They split off into factions
Take their own time to add shit

It's a God Thing.

Now I've Got It.

Out of Options.

Father's Calling.

This isn't how I thought I'd evolve either
Toward the obvious logic I see the ungodly took for granted
It still stands a mystery to this old brain
Guess it's finally time to learn the way this earth was really made

In any case it's an embarrassment
I was ignorant, but to walk away from it is cringe & ""reddit""
I'm afraid this bitch just can't win
Wish I could forget the section of my head that dreads this

It's a God Thing.

Now I've Got It.

Out of Options.

Father's Calling.

Cut the feed back to the sleepless nights post-Eden
Lifting new names on high, fallen from the tree of most evil
He transformed a warning into eternal torment
And we really let ourselves accept this explanation

Then come those deadly days afloat through the ocean risen
For weeks, they say, all their boat's needs seamlessly filled in
I don't mean to arrogantly overdose on the thrill of Skepticism™
From this perspective, it's entirely new territory into which I've ripped

But in any case
There's no use in debate
Forever more it'll rage
Til we eventually unearth the correct take

In the meantime, it's only myself that I can educate
They'll try their best to make of it whatever suits their needs
From this book to pick apart, as they argue over versions
And which verses really mean the things they say

If you can perceive it, someone's already deemed it the "antichrist"
Infighting only matched by those with which I'm politically aligned
And that shit's for another time, I'm just saying
What matters here is realizing that, besides a waste of life, this has all brought nothing for me
