Not a Battery From No Exit Listen and read the lyrics: https://pgsongs.com/no-exit/not-a-bat... They grow us in fields, they said Rows of us in the dark Warm enough to run the picture Wired in at the back And when the picture's done with one of us They pour us into the rest That's what you are, they said You're heat You're the thing the picture eats But that's not the ground I came from And that's not the field I'm in You are not a battery You were not grown in a row He took the dust of the ground in His hands And shaped you, slow He breathed into your face And He set you in a garden And He said, keep it You are not what runs the world You're the one He made it for You are not a battery A battery has no garden A battery has no name A battery gets replaced When it stops giving flame But He kneeled down in the dirt And made a man with His hands And put him where the rivers were And said, this is yours, and stand And that's the ground I came from And that's the garden I'm in You are not a battery You were not grown in a row He took the dust of the ground in His hands And shaped you, slow He breathed into your face And He set you in a garden And He said, keep it You are not what runs the world You're the one He made it for You are not a battery Breathed Breathed Breathed Breathed He breathed into you And you stood up And you were a living soul Not a cell Not a wire A soul in a body He shaped Himself The picture doesn't run on you You run on Him Every breath is His breath Lent and given back And the body they call fuel Is the body He shaped by hand And the body He put in a garden Is the body He's coming back to raise The same one Yours You are not a battery You were not grown in a row He took the dust of the ground in His hands And shaped you, slow He breathed into your face And He set you in a garden And He said, keep it You are not what runs the world You're the one He made it for You are not a battery A living soul.
