Lyrics
From Chains to Lanterns
[Verse 1]
We built our dreams with steady hands,
Brick by brick across the land,
But the harder we worked, the less we could see,
Lost in the motions of history.
[Pre-Chorus]
And the fires we fed turned cold,
Silver promises growing old…
[Chorus]
We’re breaking these chains,
We’re lighting the way,
Through the darkness, through the pain,
We won’t be the same.
From the ruins of the lies,
We’ll raise up our eyes —
With a lantern in hand,
We’ll find who we are again.
[Verse 2]
Tied to the fear, the devil’s game,
Whispers of freedom just echoes in chains,
But the lock’s in our hands, and the door’s open wide,
If we choose to leave the past behind.
[Pre-Chorus]
And the voices inside grow strong,
Singing we’ve been silent too long…
[Chorus]
We’re breaking these chains,
We’re lighting the way,
Through the darkness, through the pain,
We won’t be the same.
From the ruins of the lies,
We’ll raise up our eyes —
With a lantern in hand,
We’ll find who we are again.
[Bridge]
Oh the work is not easy, the night feels so long,
But the truth is a whisper that turns into song,
And the hermit’s flame will guide us home…
[Final Chorus]
We’re breaking these chains,
We’re lighting the way,
Through the darkness, through the pain,
We won’t be the same.
From the ashes we’ll rise,
Under wide-open skies —
With a lantern in hand,
We’ll find who we are again.
Reading: The Shift of Political Tides
Focus: Canadian Election 2025
Past — 8 of Pentacles
The 8 of Pentacles represents dedication, skill-building, and hard work. In the context of Canada’s recent political past, this suggests that there was once a genuine effort toward progress — an investment in improving systems, building a better society, and mastering the complexities of governance. However, over the last decade of Liberal leadership, this dedication has arguably shifted. What began as earnest effort became repetitive and mechanical — policies focused more on appearances than authentic results. The country was “working hard,” but perhaps not working smart, leading to a growing sense of dissatisfaction and frustration among the populace.
Present — The Devil
The Devil card highlights the present state: a feeling of being trapped, manipulated, or enslaved by illusions. This is a powerful indicator that many Canadians feel bound by a government that promises freedom and prosperity but delivers the opposite — division, debt, dependency, and disillusionment. Addictions to narratives, fear-based policies, and manipulative media have kept the country in a state of inertia. People feel controlled by forces that benefit from maintaining the status quo. However, The Devil always carries a secret: the chains can be broken. Awareness is rising, and the collective is starting to realize that liberation is possible, but it requires conscious effort to step away from fear and reclaim autonomy.
Future — The Hermit
The Hermit suggests that after this period of intense disillusionment, Canada will move into a phase of deep reflection and soul-searching. Rather than a simple political victory or defeat, the shift (likely a Conservative win reflecting global tides) will prompt a national awakening. Canadians will begin to seek truth, wisdom, and authentic leadership rather than charismatic figures or hollow promises. The Hermit is a guide through darkness — suggesting that while the immediate future may still feel isolating or uncertain, it will eventually bring enlightenment and a re-grounding in foundational principles: integrity, sovereignty, and individual responsibility.
This card implies that the real healing will not be instant with a change in government. Instead, it will be an inner journey for the collective spirit of the country.
Summary:
- The past was marked by an attempt at building something meaningful (8 of Pentacles), which over time grew stagnant and unproductive.
- The present is a time of entrapment and disillusionment (The Devil), but the chains can be broken.
- The future is a path of introspection and quiet rebirth (The Hermit), indicating a hopeful — though sober — transformation of the national spirit.
