Wars, Claws and Ancient Shores

When America falls into China's paws
The Emperor will not be tame. 
Borrowed debts from Nazi techs.
NASA's chief and a Noble thief
Hide out in memories of fame,
Distant shadows and thoughts on blame.
Do you seek me, as I seek you?
Did they make you choose -
The political ones?
Wars, claws and ancient shores.

Are you awake and do you feel real?
Do you love and live un-still?
Defying gravity with floating hills.
Oh the prodigal child, the thinker
Held my hand and led to sands
A mirage of lights and chanting sounds.
Have you been me, as I've been you?
Did they make you choose -
The religious ones?
Wars, claws and ancient shores.

Should I bare my soul and relieve control?
Do you know my journey, my truths?
Did you find me in my youth?
Pawned my soul and lost the ticket.
An Ark swooped down from the sky 
Noah's lost the will and got too high.
Have you found me, as I've found you?
Did they make you choose - 
The immortal ones?
Wars, claws and ancient shores.

An ancient being guides us in
Ruined times and lessons thinking.
Star-seed planted, earthlings parted.
Get me off of this sinking land,
Sail me through your river of stars,
Where trails of life sparkle and glisten.
Do you know me, as I know you?
Did they make you choose -
The ancient ones?
Wars, claws and ancient shores.
