This song is a raw, blues-soaked creed for the scientific age. It strips away centuries of dogma to deliver a primal, undeniable truth: the universe is not a separate creation, but a single, conscious field of existence, and we are it. With a grinding groove and soul-wrenching vocals, the song declares that this "Unified Field" is the only divinity, a force present in both joy and suffering, in the victor and the vanquished. It argues that to love or harm another is literally to love or harm a part of your own being, grounding the golden rule in the unshakeable law of physics. This is not a gentle hymn; it's a seismic revelation, shaking the foundations of the self to reveal our true, interconnected nature.
[Verse 1]
You can call it God, you can call it Law
A single great, eternal Cause
It ain't just in the winner's grin
It's in the empty box, and the toothless grin
It's the full belly, and the hungry pain
The gentle sunshine, and the hurricane
[Chorus]
And we are OF it, and it is OF us!
In every triumph, in every fuss!
When we win, it wins the prize!
When the last hope in our chest dies... it dies...
Oh, it's the law of the seed, and the law of the cost...
To hurt another being, is to love yourself lost...
[Verse 2]
So don't you lift yourself up on a lonely throne
Made of brittle, bloodied, stolen bone
'Cause the light you see in your brother's eyes
Is your own reflection in disguise
That greatness that you fear or praise
Is the same light, set in different ways...
[Chorus]
And we are OF it, and it is OF us! (Is of us!)
In every triumph, in every fuss! (Every fuss!)
When we win, it wins the prize!
When the last hope in our chest dies... it dies... (It dies...)
Oh, it's the law of the seed, and the law of the cost!
To hurt another being, is to love yourself lost!
[Bridge]
This ain't no philosophy, no abstract thought
It's the hardest lesson ever taught
To look in the eyes of your enemy... and see...
The only thing you'll ever be...
Is you... staring back at you...
[Final Chorus]
'Cause we ARE it, and it IS us! (It IS us!)
In the righteous and the cuss! (And the cuss!)
There is only the universe!
And its blessing... and its curse!
So love your neighbor as your self...
It's the only story... ever told...
Put your own hand... in your own chest...
And feel the universe... at rest...
[Outro]
The universe... at rest...
We are the universe... at rest...
