Lyrics
GURU
Bring me seekers everywhere
With our promise and our flair
Tell them we have found the way to bliss
Imagine this
Swim to my shore
I'll be your guide and more.
Forget everything you know.
What you reap is what I sow
I will enlighten you this way
Bring me your search
Do as I say
You will be saved today
Your new family welcomes you.
Come and bask in The Healer's glow.
Now a part of the chosen few.
We will take you in. We will lift you up. We will take you, take you, take you...
Rid yourself of everything
Pawn your car and wedding ring
If you really want enlightenment
I need your consent
You need me
This is the way to be
Your new family welcomes you.
Come and bask in The Healer's glow.
Now a part of the chosen few.
We will take you in. We will lift you up. We will take you, take you, take you...
You start to think there's something wrong
You thought this was like Falun Gong
A way to find your inner peace
But this is a ruse
A power abuse
A hypnotic show
Take back your mind and go.
