The Problem With Progress (Briyan Frederick)

While we eat our cake
What's in it clouds our fate
When what's for breakfast
Doubts dessert's mistakes

While we eat our cake
And laugh about the past
Like fools we do not ask
Until it's far too late

The problem with progress is
When strings are pulled and puppets dance like this
There's very little chance
The master cares to glance
At what's in it for the puppet class --
That's you…
And me (Unfortunately…)

While we eat our cake
Growing fatter by the day
Having it and eating too
Ignoring all the work to do

The problem with progress is
When strings are pulled and puppets dance like this
There's very little chance
The master cares to glance
At what's in it for the puppet class --
That's you…
And me (Unfortunately…)

The problem with progress
Is its outcome is manifest
Through the flyover leftovers
It forgets

While we eat our cake
What's in it clouds our fate
When what's for breakfast
Doubts dessert's mistakes

The problem with progress is
When strings are pulled and puppets dance like this
There's very little chance
The master cares to glance
At what's in it for the puppet class --
That's you…
And me (Unfortunately…)

MooN EchoEs: Eternal Romance (Oriental Edition) is a journey of love told through the language of symphonic and oriental music. Each piece blends the emotional depth of classical orchestration with the soulful beauty of Middle Eastern melodies. From tender whispers of strings and piano to the powerful echoes of oud-inspired modes and lush orchestral arrangements, this album captures the timeless spirit of romance under the moonlit sky. A celebration of passion, longing, and eternal love where East meets West in harmony.
