Manifestation Lyrics

[Excerpts from the Jim Jones suicide tape]

Jim Jones: "Living--you're looking at death and it
looks--living is much, much more difficult.
Raising up every morning and not knowing what's going
to be the night's bringing.
It's much more difficult. It's much more difficult."

Jim Jones: "It's never been done before,
you say. It's been done by every tribe in history.
Every tribe facing annihilation.
All the Indians of the Amazon are doing it right now.
They refuse to bring any babies into the world.
They kill every child that comes into the world.
Because they don't want to live in this kind of a world."

Christine Miller: "Well, I don't see it like that.
I mean, I feel like that--as long as there's life,
there's hope. That's my faith."

Jim Jones: "Well--some--everybody dies.
Some place that hope runs out because everybody dies.
I haven't seen anybody yet didn't die.
And I'd like to choose my own kind of death for a change.
I'm tired of being tormented to hell,
that's what I'm tired of. Tired of it."

Jim Jones: "Please. For God's sake,
let's get on with it. We've lived--we've lived as no
other people lived and loved.
We've had as much of this world as you're gonna get.
Let's just be done with it. Let's be done with the agony of it."

Jim Jones: "I made my manifestation,
and the world was ready, not ready for me.
Paul said, "I was a man born out of due season.
" I've been born out of due season,
just like all we are, and the best testimony we can
make is to leave this goddamn world."
