Analysis of The Age of Aquarius
I’m not The prophet
But the voice of all the prophets.
Oh, you’ve been warned
too many times!
Are you prepared?
The doomsday comes!
This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius
when the creators will return to their creation.
Only the chosen ones
will step beside the Anunaki
on their beloved Nubiru soil.
This is the time to wash your sins!
And still…
you dwell in lust and gluttony,
your greed grows like cancer,
you lead your life between wrath and sloth,
your envy and your pride killed brothers -thousands,
and still…
you hadn’t had enough!?
Oh, stop now or it will be too late!
Live in peace and let be lived!
Let your love
To lead your life!
But don’t forget:
there is a difference between
love and flesh desire!
Control your mortal senses,
eat as much as you need to live
and spare the rest for the ones in need!
Live now and let go of your obsessions,
love is the only thing you need in your possession.
Be happy for your neighbour’s good
or give him a shoulder to cry.
Forget revenge and anger and instead ,
turn on the other cheek, just try!
You’ve got the power now,
use it wisely for it will not last
the furious nature’s blast.
We live the sorrow of the gods
through earthquakes, cyclones and the floods.
Be ready, when our world will crash,
you be the ones to pick up pieces and
start an Age of Love.
