Gather Lyrics

amalgamation, amino inception
the thriving womb of our forebears

the tireless reach across ocean epochs
the graceful agony of progression
for we have smelted cells
to carve new scales in hide
in turn recast feathers
with which we did take flight
the hardship of famine, in spite of cataclysm
survive and surpass in the face of all odds

The graceful agony of progression

crawl from below, descend from above
to incubate for millenia,
desperately clinging to the menagerie

Evolution by natural selection is a beautiful yet incredibly simple process that allows the stronger genes to survive. It is an ongoing struggle, the rise of species through individuals ability to adapt against the elements, the giraffe with the longest neck that reaches the branches their brethren cannot reach, thus surviving and pairing with another giraffe endowed with these genes. It is an endless marathon, a word to describe not a force, but an action, that the fittest will survive. In the first world, we simply exist. We do not see the starvation, fear and desperation of survival in the wild and therefor the word may be lost to us. But all life is, to some degree - a struggle to a survive.
