Big Riddle

from Prime Mover by Rocco of the Snow

about

This song will hopefully make you feel the sun on your face, driving down the southern California coastline of the future 1980's after humanity has started itself over for the 6th or 7th time. We've really figured it out this time, y'all.
The song talks to how exhausting it can be at times to go down rabbit hole after rabbit hole, only to come back feeling like you're right back where you started-in an uncertain world that appears to be crumbling all around you and getting crazier with each passing day. But then, it describes the joy in throwing your hands up and simply taking in the beauty of it all, ultimately falling in love with faith in the higher pattern. We all die in this form. Our energy will go somewhere, whether or not it will take with it any memory of this life's iteration will be the answer to the big riddle.

lyrics

The world is caving in around us.
One more reason to open up.
Don’t wanna go out with our eyes shut.
As it draws closer we pull ahead.
Hiding out where the earth has bled.
If you fall first, I’ll be there pretending for dead..
But we’re not even there yet.

Let’s chill and just see where it goes.
It can all fall apart and everyone knows.
I’ve been worried bout it long enough
And the worst that can happen answers to the big riddles.
Meaning the indefinite you
The you as in we like it’s gotta be
Beyond a silhouetted mania I can’t think of anyone I’d rather survive with.

Without all the wonders once afforded,
We can wage war with the time that’s left.
Nothing ever seemed to be this important before.
One eyed man is the king of the blind.
No more closer to the grand design
Well gather your thoughts let’s get ready to fly
And find out why

After a couple years of evolving
We can float on over all this baby.
With a gentle sway in the right direction
We can shift currents with ease
And for once impact the patterns that we please
Wake up tomorrow won’t remember a thing
When the big picture’s on a postcard
Say “well that was nice and just discard”
Can ya tell me, Who knew us to expect we’d make it through the worst
Well I finally believe it’s for the best,
Butl in order to get that and all the rest first…
