cryptodira - the white mask speaks كلمات الأغنية

“enlightenment: my child and my doom
it is my project, which knows no bounds
there is nothing which limits or localizes it
except for racial distinctions and national borders
my subject is open to everyone and all
who embrace my liberal/legal freedom
and that freedom can only know the embrace
of those who look just like me.”

in return for the affirmation of life, of
revolutionary promise, is exchanged a
“no” to demos, and a “no” to life
enlightenment culminates in objective madness
and the negated promises of happiness
as its hate outlives classical imperialism
and overstays its welcome by globalization
it exhausts all objects in reflection

as we excavate the childhood of europe
we bring to light a bedrock made of myth
myths like bondage being freedom, and sacrifice
the only show of value, and sacrifice
our totem, transgression and reason

the white mask speaks into its own vacuous project
yet suppresses and silences the call which echoes back
we cannot ignore today what we never knew then:
de_centering and displacement are necessary
consequences and supplements of truth and freedom
from these contradictions came a truth
a firm affirmation/affirm a_formation
the much_repeated promise, for the new
the promise for liberation and amelioration
the promise to give empty forms new life
the promise of security and meaning for each life
the promise which enlightenment has forgone

the promise which had nearly been forgotten
by spectacle_fetish malaise and endless_war economy
but a promise which we recuperate as the empire falters
a promise which we fall back on in the afterlife of culture

blessed be the absent end of history;
for it spares us its cursed presence
history is still ongoing so long as we find
sacrifice_ideology underpinning freedom_ideology
there, the ones who go without, the lambs and
the meek will be unfree
where found the unfreedom of any
is found the unfreedom of all

so let us never stop repeating the “yes” we are:
yes to life. yes to love. yes to generosity
yes to a deferred promise, ever restated
the promise for liberation and amelioration
the promise to give empty forms new life
the promise of security and meaning for each life
the promise which enlightenment has forgone
