Lyrics
[instrumental]
[shout]
Socrates!
[Verse]
In ancient Athens, streets of old,
Socrates questioned, truths unfold.
Ethical queries, in dialectic flight,
Socratic wisdom, shining bright.
[shout]
Plato!
[Verse]
From Socrates' shadow, Plato's form,
Ideas eternal, beyond the norm.
In the Republic's gaze, truth's unveiled,
Philosopher king, justice prevailed.
[shout]
Aristotle!
[Verse]
Aristotle's mind, vast and wide,
From ethics to physics, he did guide.
In the Stagirite's school, knowledge's pool,
Western thought's cornerstone, his intellectual jewel.
[pre-chorus]
That's ancient ages dude!
[Chorus]
Through the ebb and flow of thought, we stride,
From ancient whispers to modern tide.
Philosophy's journey, timeless and vast,
In the tapestry of ideas, echoes last.
[shout]
Saint Aquinas!
[Verse]
Medieval thinker, in faith he soared,
Aquinas synthesized, faith's accord.
Reason and theology, hand in hand,
Scholastic philosophy, across the land.
[pre-chorus]
So rolls the middle ages in philosophy!
[Chorus]
Through the ebb and flow of thought, we stride,
From ancient whispers to modern tide.
Philosophy's journey, timeless and vast,
In the tapestry of ideas, echoes last.
[shout]
Descartes!
[Verse]
In doubt's embrace, Descartes did dwell,
Cogito ergo sum, his truth to tell.
In reason's domain, certainty found,
Descartes' philosophy, resounding sound.
[solo guitar interlude]
[shout]
Kant! Kant! Kant!
[Verse]
Kant arose, in modern tide,
Reason's limits, he did abide.
Categorical imperatives, moral decree,
Kantian philosophy, shaping what we see.
[pre-chorus]
Mo-mo-mo-Modern era is due! Robots and AI YEAAH-AAA-AAAH!
[Chorus]
Through the ebb and flow of thought, we stride,
From ancient whispers to modern tide.
Philosophy's journey, timeless and vast,
In the tapestry of ideas, echoes last.
echoes last
last, last, last (last, last)
[shout]
Kierkegaard!
[Outro]
Amidst the modern storm, Kierkegaard's cry,
Existential anguish, reaching sky high.
In the depths of despair, faith's leap he made,
Existentialist prophet, in darkness he wade.
From ancient whispers to modern plight,
Philosophy's journey, through day and night.
In the symphony of thought, voices blend,
Philosophers' legacies, to the end.
