Lyrics for Gold Lion as interpreted by Botman4y2k

Gold Lion Lyrics

Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Take our hands out of control
Take our hands out of control
Now tell me what you saw
Tell me what you saw
There was a crowd of seeds
Inside
Outside
I must have done a dozen each
It was the height I grew
The weight, the shell was crushing you
I've been around a few
Tell me what you saw
I'll tell you what, too

Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Gold lion's going to tell me where the light is
Take our hands out of control
Take our hands out of control

Outside
Inside
This is a moon without a tide
We'll build a fire in your eyes
We'll build a fire
When the colors
Getting brighter
Cold desire
Makes the moon without a tide
Tell me what you saw
I'll tell you what, too

I think gold lion represents the "zero" who descends into nothingness, only to see the light that illuminates us all and climb, climb back up. Gold lion sees the crowns of seeds that causes everything to manifest in this world. Gold lion sees beyond the epoch of slavery, domination, division, and false ego within which we are living. Our true selves are moons without a tide, as we who have seen it have not reached a tipping point quite yet, causing the love, the pole reversal, to reverberate throughout the world. The outside moon without a tide represents how the current order of things does not resonate deeply; it is an irritant, a blockage. Gold lion says do not have faith in the deceptive image, do not fear, do not become vain over your false self in realtion to that fear, leading to narcissism, then leading to lust. This reduction to robot/animal status allows the slavemasters (who are really slaves themselves, to the false ideology) to continue to plant poisonous seeds of hate, division, war, strife, domination, manipulation. Ceasing our judgments of others and ourselves is key, as we really only judge others based on aspects contained within ourselves, whether we are are, looking within, or not. Forgiveness of self and others must follow. A keen awareness of the grand interconnected design becomes profoundly and movingly apparent, and we love. The echoes of hate, bouncing along in our false selves, that beast masquerading as divine, these echoes of hate dissolve into the ether. We find our true nature. We are joyous, we love, and we transcend the stifling control. This is what one gold lion says. Of course, this is only my interpretation, but I think it is something they were getting at, almost like a high form of communication to others who see what they see, saying you are not alone. They are also saying it is the time to shine for those like us. Shine, the world needs it. It is our destiny, if we want it to be.
