Rite of Passage — текст песни (Bob Seger)

It`s the age of reason for the anarchist
It`s a change of venue for the lobbyist
It`s a dream of justice buried in the grist

It`s a secret briefing based on need to know
It`s a condescending rationale from command control
Feel the sense of wonder at the overthrow

It`s a rite of passage through a hurricane
Through a rolling thunder through a screaming rain
Hear the shriek of Abel hear the cry of Cain

And Abraham will take his son
Five billion years from now the cruelty will be done

Make a destination
Of the greater truth
Make `em hang their heads and eat their words
When you find the proof
This is all you`re given
It`s your only move

It`s a rite of passage for the everyman
To a higher ground
To a brighter light
To a promised land
You can feel the power
Of the master`s hand

It`s a rite of passage
