[Akira The Don, Dr. Jordan B. Peterson - The Birth of a Baby Meaningwave Christmas lyrics]
Symbolically at Christmas
The idea of the lights on the trees
Is the return of illumination, right?
Because the sun is starting to come back
All these things are layered on
Top of one another
And so, it's, it's, it's a remarkable
It's one of the things that's
Really made me so struck
As a consequence of studying Christianity
Is that so many levels of meaning
Stack on top of one another
In an isomorphic manner
And support one another
You know, there's a cosmic story
That's associated with Christmas
Which is thе death and rebirth of the sun
I mеan the, the actual solar orb and
Then there's the more prosaic story
Of the birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
The birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Levels of meaning stack on top of one another
The birth of a, birth of a, birth of a baby
Which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone’s life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
So, Christ is the eternal hope of mankind
Just like a
An infant is the eternal hope of mankind
Oh, he's born in lowly circumstances
And in extreme peril, right
Because all the firstborns are
Under death sentence, essentially
And there's an archetypal element to that
Too which is really important to understand
Which is that even if the hero is divine
He's always born in the extreme danger
That characterizes existence it'self
So, in some sense that balance
Between tragedy and catastrophe
And tyranny and hope
That typifies Christmas in reality
For day-to day people
Is also built right into the story
I mean, they're in a manger, for God's sake
Right?
It's a stable and so it's pretty unstable
Then there's the more prosaic story
Of the birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
The birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Levels of meaning stack on top of one another
The birth of a, birth of a, birth of a baby
Which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone’s life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
And then, of course
There's all these radical political
Events going on
And well, that's, that's the way of mankind
Radical political and social events going on
And that's the way of mankind, so
Then there's the more prosaic story
Of the birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
The birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Levels of meaning stack on top of one another
The birth of a, birth of a, birth of a baby
Which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone’s life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
The birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
The birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Levels of meaning levels of meaning
The birth of a baby which is, of course
A miraculous event in everyone's life
Everyone's life, everyone's life
A miraculous event in everyone's life
