Scott's Metal Track of the Day - A National Acrobat by Black Sabbath

Today's Metal Track is brought to you by Black Sabbath. This is off of their 1973 album Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Metallica covered part of this song and mashed it together with Sabbra Cadabra on their album Garage Inc.

The song is about rebirth and reincarnation and is told through the eyes of an unborn child. It says that when you are reincarnated you forget all of your past lives and you have to die in order to move onto your next life:

"I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell
And flashing memories
Are cast into the never ending well"

"Don't believe the life you have will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on"
