The Kindred - Heritage

He who cannot draw upon three thousand years
is living from hand to mouth."
If there is wisdom, let's hope to find it here.

Come to know all thoughts advance era to era.
And so if you wish to understand modern process,
look behind, and witness conception.

Now, stand on the shoulders of history's tallest thinkers;
see that their height is borrowed from predecessors,
and even the worst ideas can spur better conceptions,
pushing humankind along an evolutionary rite of passage

Take a look and come to know all thoughts advance era to era.
And so if you wish to understand modern process,
look behind and witness conception, and progress.

We'll be tomorrow's heritage; the giants of advancing thought,
but if only we respect the statuesque preceding.
Let's be tomorrow's heritage; the giants of advancing thought,
Let us respect the work of the statuesque preceding.
