Man's Inhumanity

from From The Fire: Chapter 2 by AYYA

/

about

Reinvigorating the famous words of Scotland's greatest baird, Man's Inhumanity is a cinematic deeply emotional electronic ballad capturing the sadness and infinitely needless loss we inflict on one another. Its a reflective and somber song of sadness.

lyrics

"If I'm design'd yon lordling's slave,
By Nature's law design'd,
Why was an independent wish
E'er planted in my mind?
If not, why am I subject to
His cruelty, or scorn?
Or why has man the will and pow'r
To make his fellow mourn?

"A few seem favourites of fate,
In pleasure's lap carest;
Yet, think not all the rich and great
Are likewise truly blest:
But oh! what crowds in ev'ry land,
All wretched and forlorn,
Thro' weary life this lesson learn,
That man was made to mourn.

"Many and sharp the num'rous ills
Inwoven with our frame!
More pointed still we make ourselves,
Regret, remorse, and shame!
And man, whose heav'n-erected face
The smiles of love adorn, -
Man's inhumanity to man
Makes countless thousands mourn!
