Djinn You Win

By Indi Riverflow | July 10, 2013

See, you rubbed the lamp so now I am bound
To awaken you like a tireless hound
For all the universe is thus revealed
When all the paltry veils are peeled

I am embedded in the code of love
As it is below, so it must be above
I am evoked by the surrender of will
To principles which can never be killed

{Chorus}
It’s not a test
There’s no right question
It’s about the quest
Not the destination

Riddle me this, o impudent man
Who sought to place me under command
What’s your plan to understand
The forces thus released by your hand?

Church rats scurry and old moths flutter
In corridors full of cobwebs and clutter
As ancient heads inaudibly mutter
In whispers from across the shutter

{Bridge}
You want to brew success
I’ll give you this simple recipe
Equal measures or your best guess
Of everything destiny drove you to be
All that honor demands and no less
Mortality before integrity
Drop in a dash of dignity
And flavored with just a touch
Not too much
Of spicy subtlety
{Chorus}
