lower still (spontaneous word) - worshipmob lyrics

[spoken word]
well look, he’s covered in dirt
the blood of his mother has mixed with the earth
but she’s just a child who’s throbbing in pain
by the terror of birth, by the light of a cave
now they’ve laid that small baby where creatures come eat
like a meal for the swine who have no clue that he is still holding together the world that they see
they don’t know just how low, but he has to go lower still
and look now, he’s kneeling, and he’s washing their feet
though they’re all filthy fisherman, traders, and thiеves
and he’s pouring his heart out, but thеy’re falling asleep
and he has to go lower still
because there’s greater love to show
hands to the plough, further down now, blood must flow
because all of his steps are personal
and all of his death is a ransom
do you see how low he’s come? do you see it now?
because no one takes from him what he freely gives away
so beat in his face
tear the skin off his back
lower still
you strip off his clothes, and you make him crawl through the street
lower still
you hang him like meat on a criminal’s tree
lower still
you bury his corpse in the earth like a seed
lower still
but the earth explodes, she can’t hold him (yes)
’cause all there it is placed beneath him
and death itself no longer reigns
because it can’t keep the ones he gave himself to save
so as the universe shatters and darkness dissolves
he alone will be honored
and we’ll bathe in his splendor
as all heads bow
lower still
