[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]
From a slave with a story in ancient Greece
Six hundred years ‘fore the world found peace
No pen, no page, just a voice in the night
Spinnin’ little truths in the firelight
Kings and beggars, they’d all lean in close
For a rabbit runnin’ or a braggin’ ghost
Yeah the truth wore feathers, fur, and bone
But it sounded a lot like the life we know

[Chorus]
From tongue to ear… year to year
That old truth keeps ringin’ clear
Through a lion’s pride and a fox’s lies
It’s the same old song in a new disguise
From tongue to ear… still right here
Yeah we’re livin’ what we hear

[Break]

[Verse]
Took three hundred years just to write it down
But it never got lost, just passed around
Changed a little bit with every hand
Different words, but the truth still stands
Now it’s books and screens and a million views
But it’s the same old morals we still use
Yeah the world keeps turnin’, but the story’s strong
Guess some old truths just live too long

[Chorus]
From tongue to ear… year to year
That old truth keeps ringin’ clear
Through a lion’s pride and a fox’s lies
It’s the same old song in a new disguise
From tongue to ear… still right here
Yeah we’re livin’ what we hear

[Bridge]
Yeah it started with a whisper in the dark
Now it’s echoing in every heart
You can change the voice, you can change the scene
But you can’t outrun what the story means

[Final chorus]
From tongue to ear… year to year
That old truth keeps ringin’ clear
From a firelit tale to a neon screen
Still sayin’ what it’s always been
From tongue to ear… loud and clear
Yeah we’re livin’ what we hear

[Outro]
From tongue to ear… year to year
Yeah we’re livin’ what we hear
From tongue to ear… loud and clear
Yeah we’re livin’ what we hear



What does any of this have to do with AI is the devil

We’re all built from the same dust and dreams,
Different roads, but the same means.
