Mega Ran, Phil Hanson - The Traveler lyrics
[Mega Ran, Phil Hanson - The Traveler lyrics]
From a humble beginning, to pass in a tragedy
Traveling he entered, and disappeared rapidly
Steps that he took, influenced by the gravity
We all feel
But where he looked to change was the reality
Of human rights, in regard to information
He wanted knowledge to soar free
An integration
Of the world’s population at large
Information, accessed without a charge
Anyone can benefit, no one is barred
There’s no paywall and no greed serving law
In following this path in
Life he stepped over
Lines of draconian laws and rights owners
Regrettably, he made a choice to leave
We chased him away for wanting to be
Now imagine
What else he could have taught us
The ideas discovered
As far as beliefs, he was a brother
Continue on your journey
Tragedy of the commons, borderline genius
Who dropped outta college
But never stopped dreaming
Vanished too soon
Though he's still traveling
Champion to many but living unhappily
Because of a belief information
Shouldn't be padlocked
Equal access to the haves and have nots
Taught us to demand progress
Stood up to congress
And showed us that justice
Is a gradual process
Victim of a system, mistreated and slandered
For fighting for the Fundamental rights
We take for granted
Why shouldn't knowledge should be
Free of charge not absurd for a country that
Claims belief in God
Charges piling up, he saw no other way
The ultimate price, he would soon pay
Yet in 26 years
He learned what Professors Can't teach
Still traveling places that
Mortals can't reach the Traveler
Traveling he entered, and disappeared rapidly
Steps that he took, influenced by the gravity
We all feel
But where he looked to change was the reality
Of human rights, in regard to information
He wanted knowledge to soar free
An integration
Of the world’s population at large
Information, accessed without a charge
Anyone can benefit, no one is barred
There’s no paywall and no greed serving law
In following this path in
Life he stepped over
Lines of draconian laws and rights owners
Regrettably, he made a choice to leave
We chased him away for wanting to be
Now imagine
What else he could have taught us
The ideas discovered
As far as beliefs, he was a brother
Continue on your journey
Tragedy of the commons, borderline genius
Who dropped outta college
But never stopped dreaming
Vanished too soon
Though he's still traveling
Champion to many but living unhappily
Because of a belief information
Shouldn't be padlocked
Equal access to the haves and have nots
Taught us to demand progress
Stood up to congress
And showed us that justice
Is a gradual process
Victim of a system, mistreated and slandered
For fighting for the Fundamental rights
We take for granted
Why shouldn't knowledge should be
Free of charge not absurd for a country that
Claims belief in God
Charges piling up, he saw no other way
The ultimate price, he would soon pay
Yet in 26 years

Mortals can't reach the Traveler
