The Passengers

The Passengers is a poem from KRGKGM's second EP Brujas about the beginning of thought and the theory of immortality. The lyrics suggest that humanity is the result of an exchange of life and consciousness, symbolized by liquid spilling from one container into the nex and microscopic evaporation. The poem describes this beginning as a state of being without space, wherein only matter and anti-matter exist and fall endlessly in love. The poem suggests that humans are the ancestors of religion and exist where there is no language, and are inhabited by entire universes.
The poem speaks of birthing light, energy, and matter, which represents the first creation given to humans, while the rest was given to everything else. The lyrics suggest that regardless of how we were given existence, we were everything, and they were no longer alone.
The poem goes on to describe being in a state of emptiness and drifting, much like a moth leaving its cocoon. It suggests that once we leave a container or a vessel, we can never go back, and that is the only constant. Finally, the song concludes with the assertion that we are the passengers, not the vessel, suggesting that humans are continually moving and evolving, but they remain eternal and forever. Overall, The Passengers is a deeply philosophical poem that contemplates the nature of existence, the beginnings of consciousness and time, and the interconnectedness of all things.
