ASK (Always Seeking Knowledge) - Fear the Fire [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

My hypothesis is, be brave but fear the fire burnin’
Can you carry the burden, when you can’t bury the hurtin’
Don’t believe in promises, cuz in life only death is certain
Do right & hold no regrets, before finally closin’ the curtain
It’s do or die, if you dare to swim against the current
Confused but determined, know that truth ain’t transparent

Don’t run with the rat or the snake, they are dirty and fake
Regardless of what’s at stake, they do it for their own sake
Like politicians, they don’t ask for permissions, they just take
Like a bird of prey, patiently watching before it betray
Deadly & dangerous, but in disguise, so it leads you astray
But beware, because some will see through you like X-ray
Needless to say, this world works in a mysterious way
Put it this way, for some, life is a beautiful ballet
While for others, that ballet seems so far away

It took some time, but you are finally cotton on
Will they pray for you when you are dead & gone
Or will they shed crocodile tears and then live on
Just when you think you’re right, you’re really wrong
But then again, sometimes lies are disguised like a swan
Illiterate, yet mirror themselves in Corleone the Don
