Jefferson Airplane - Crown Of Creation

Crown Of Creation
Jefferson Airplane
 
The lyrics from the song are mostly taken from John Wyndham’s science fiction novel, “The Chrysalids”, published in 1955. The book is set in a post apocalyptic society, where…
 
You are the crown of creation
You are the crown of creation
And you've got no place to go
Soon you'll attain the stability you strive for
In the only way that it's granted:
In a place among the fossils of our time
In loyalty to their kind
They cannot tolerate our minds
In loyalty to our kind
We cannot tolerate their obstruction!
Life is change
How it differs from the rocks
I've seen their ways too often for my liking
New worlds to gain
My life is to survive
And be alive for you
Aah ah ah ah..

 "Reflection will give you a chance to stand back in your soul, your witness consciousness, to look at your life, and see how much of the systems of which you’re a part are still attractive or aversive to you. Because ultimately, the art, as Christ said, is to be in the world, but not of the world."
