Scylla

Lyrics Qui suis-je ? Scylla

Qui suis-je ?


Qui suis-je ?

Je ne suis qu'un homme dans la masse que les hautes classes abusent
Une sorte d'esclave mais m'asseoir sur un trône ne me parle pas plus
C'est ma place, je l'assume
J'espère un soulèvement des faibles de tout mon coeur
Comme si j'étais le môme à Spartacus
Que ma chair serve d'aide à trouver ce pont qui parte de la terre vers le ciel
Que le traverse même mes ennemis
J'ai l'impression étrange d'avoir été présent lors de la dernière Cène
Je lutte... Et même si l'étreinte est horrible
Je donne ma vie pour sauver celle des miens, Vercingétorix
J'allie précision des frappes aux forces de l'Esprit, pas au vide
Mon âme habitait peut-être le corps d'un maître Shaolin, qui sait...
Qui sait qui je suis et d'où je viens
Je ne suis peut-être pas ce que je semble être
En tous cas jusqu'ici tout se tient...
J'entends encore le chant de mes frères. Les fouets, les bruits de vagues
L'éclat des chaînes qui se brisent, puis...
Le cri jouissif des bourreaux devenus victimes dans les entrailles de l'Amistad
Je sens que dans mes veines le sang de toutes les victimes coulent
Quand Gilles saigne, le chant du viking s'ouvre
Je déterre la hache de guerre pour défendre une terre sacrée
J'écris tous mes textes avec une plume à Sitting Bull
Et j'aime ce qui est caché
Parce que je sais que souvent le Verbe de l'Esprit se déguise
Et si je cherche à le démasquer, c'est peut-être qu'il y a des siècles
J'étais parmi les disciples d'Hermès Trismégiste
J'ai dû en perdre du grade
Je n'ai rien d'un chevalier mais je suis en quête du Graal
C'est que mon cœur n'était peut-être pas si pur
En attendant je crois que c'est dans ma gorge que se planque Excalibur
Mais je chanterai l'Amour même si ma terre prend feu
Puisque l'Invisible garde toute vie
J'attendrai mon retour, je veux disparaître en Dieu
En moi résonne la voix de grands mystiques d'Andalousie
Mais d'où me viennent ces mots ? D'où ? D'où me viennent ces souvenirs ?
D'où me viennent ces goûts ? D'où ? D'où me viennent ces soupirs ?
D'où me viennent ces routes ? Les sens ? Qui suivre ?
D'où viennent ces doutes ? D'où ? De quand ? Qui suis-je ?

Comme toi je ne suis peut-être pas ce que je semble être
Je me croyais différent des autres mais cette enveloppe charnelle n'est qu'un masque
Je porte en moi les chromosomes de l'Humanité entière

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
