	Story Behind the Song IX is a numerology reference. It is the last number in the cipher before it repeats. The lyrics are about bringing an end to the evil around us and using the good toward a new beginning. The song is basically about everything coming together. Lyrics CHORUS: The immortal coil Life, death, regeneration One people, one creed, and one nation We can't see the future without illumination One people, one creed, and one nation The cipher is now complete Death without defeat Starts over where the two ends meet Repeat Death ain't a change in state, just a change in stage Ninth cycle, end of an age Because all things fall to rise in new forms Like there's always a calm right before the storm That shatters the earth And gives way to new birth Turns tombs into wombs And shows what life's worth You reap what you sow Usually 3-fold So I try to take a night alone and lay low Contemplation and meditation Cuz introspection brings revelation Turn inward to find inspiration History is the only divination It all repeats with a little bit of change But the only thing you have to lose is your chains The cosmic wheel just spins and keeps spinning But after each death comes a new beginning After the moon falls it's a brand new day Let's strick with the good, push the bad away CHORUS The big climax, last link in the chain More perfect the pleasure, more perfect the pain The death card's been drawn Most black before dawn Victims to victors, weak become strong End of hate, got a right to live Can we learn how to tolerate and forgive? Transform and heal with hearts & minds open Brotherhood - is all that I'm hopin' - for Three-sixty by nine, now you know the score Now you know the score CHORUS x2 Copyright 2001 Aaron McLaughlin.
