Fold - A Reflection of Us All текст песни

Исполнитель: Fold

альбом: Fold


It begins like this
Listen
My role in society
Or any artist's or poet's role
Is to try and express what we all feel
Not to tell people how to feel
Not as a preacher
Not as a leader
But as a reflection of us all
The artist
However faithful to his personal vision of reality
Becomes the last champion
Of the individual mind and sensibility
Against an intrusive society
And an officious state
The great artist is thus a solitary figure
He has a lover's quarrel with the world
In pursuing his perceptions of reality
He must often sail against the currents of his time
This is not a popular role
The men who create power
Make an indispensable contribution
To the Nation's greatness
But the men who question power
Make a contribution just as indispensable
Especially when that questioning is disinterested
For they determine whether we use power
Or power uses us
