Lyrics:
Ive seen them kneel with bated breath for their rituals.
Ive watched this experience raise them to pseudo-higher levels.
Ive watched them leave their families in pursuit of your Nirvana.
Ive seen them coming to line up from Switzerland and America.
(chorus)
How long will this take, Baba? How long have we been sleeping?
Do you see me hanging on to every word you say?
How soon will I be holy? How much will this cost, guru?
How much longer till you completely absolve me?
Ive seen them give their drugs up in place of makeshift altars.
Ive heard them chanting 'Kali, Kali' frantically.
Ive heard them rotely repeat your teachings with elitism.
Ive seen them boasting robes and foreign sandalwood beads.
(chorus)
Ive seen them overlooking God in their own essence.
Ive seen their upward glances in hopes of instant salvation.
Ive seen their righteousness mixed without loving compassion.
Ive watched you smile as the students bow to kiss your feet.
(chorus)
Give me strength all-knowing one.
How long till enlightenment?
How much longer till you completely absolve me?
