From our concept album “Question Everything“, in which each song features a different scientific figure from history who faced hardships and/or persecution on the way to having their work acknowledged. This song is about Abbot Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) “The Father of Modern Genetics“.

Lyrics:
Born 1822, from humble means he came
A quiet academic bound into a holy order
Engrossed in study of typical sativum
A famed discov...ery was observed
Father of our modern understanding
Of what’s flowing through our veins
Finder of the pieces hidden deep away
In you and me
Heed what the abbot has to say
His truth will show the way
