The niece of Scientology leader David Miscavige has revealed eerie details about a song she claimed to have learned while growing up in what she called “the cult.”
Jenna Miscavige, 40, posted a clip of herself singing the lyrics as she strolled through her California neighborhood, as part of a new series of powerful YouTube videos about her experiences with the Scientology religion.
The mother of two claimed the song, called ‘Carry On’, was used to ‘brainwash’ younger members, who she said were called ‘cadets’ and made to do hard labor such as ‘digging trenches, carrying stones, planting trees’ . and construction’.
‘It’s so cult. It’s kind of like childcare. And it’s so obvious… so blatant it’s almost funny,” she claimed in the video.
Viewers of her YouTube channel were quick to comment on how creepy the song was, with one claiming ‘it sounds like something out of a horror movie’.
The Church of Scientology has previously denied that children were forced to perform manual labor.

Jenna is the daughter of Elizabeth ‘Bitty’ Miscavige and Ron Miscavige Jr, the older brother of controversial Scientology leader David Miscavige.
Ron left the church in 2000 David has faced a series of lawsuitsincluding allegations of human trafficking – which the Church has emphatically denied.
Jenna said she fled the Scientology religion 20 years ago and now lives in California with her two children after divorcing her husband last year.
Since her departure, she has become one of the organization’s fiercest critics and has written a best-selling memoir titled “My Secret Life Within Scientology and My Harrowing Escape.”
One of her biggest accusations is that children were forced to work in de facto labor camps, where she claims she had to “lug stones out of cold streams.”
In a YouTube video posted earlier this year, she said: “I thought it would be interesting to make a little video about one of the songs we sang when I was a kid growing up in Scientology.
‘This would be from the age of six to the age of 12. I actually lived in a boarding school,” she continued.
She claimed she did not live at home with her parents, but instead stayed at a base in Florida that housed children of members of the Sea Organization – which she said was the religion’s “most devout and elite group.”
“The children are basically sent to this school where we did a lot of manual labor,” she claimed. “And we were kind of considered training for Sea Org members – so we were called Cadets.”
She claimed that once a year, on August 12, Sea Org Scientologists would participate in an event called “Sea Org Day,” where they would celebrate their membership and put on a little show for their parents.
“The song we sang every year was called ‘Carry on’ and there’s a lot of Scientology jargon in it, so it’s a little hard to understand – but I’ll try to explain it as I go along,” she said. .
Jenna then sang several verses of the song as she strolled the streets of the San Diego suburb of Vista.
“Singing while I’m walking, but it’ll be fun. “I don’t remember all the verses, but I do remember some.” she told viewers.
‘It’s so cult. It’s kind of like childcare. And it’s so obvious… so blatant it’s almost funny. But it’s not actually funny,” she continued.

Jenna claimed that the first verse of the song was about Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. She said the lyrics essentially said he had done the job he came here to do and that “the rest is up to you.”
The next verse was about ‘cadets’ – of which she said ‘are we little children’.
‘It’s really a mess, if you consider that we did 35 hours of hard work every week. And when I talk about hard work, like, no joke, digging trenches, carrying stones, planting trees, digging rows, harvesting vegetables, painting, building,” she claimed.
Jenna then sang the verse, “The cadets work hard, you know. Doing projects as our bodies grow. And we are trained to be top flight, so keep going, keep going.”
She explained that the acronym was short for Sea Og and claimed that the song meant they were being trained as top Sea Org members.
‘In Scientology they believe that children are just Thetans, or spiritual beings or adults in small bodies, because we supposedly live life after life. There really is no such thing as a child in Scientology,” she continued.
She claimed that this is why “they are okay” with not giving children proper education and making them work.
‘It would be frowned upon if they treated us completely as adults. So they basically locked us up in a boarding school so they could treat us like adults and make us do hard work away from the public eye,” she alleged.
The third verse, she claimed, was about where their parents worked, which she said was known as “the Golden Base.”
A fourth verse was about a management unit she said is known as “The Commodore’s Messenger Organization (CMO).”
“It’s actually the group of people – mostly young girls – who worked directly for L. Ron Hubbard,” she claimed.
“They delivered messages for him, did his laundry, and sent programs to Scientology churches – and it’s called CMO.”
“That was the group my mother belonged to,” she claimed.
She then sang the verse: “The CMO are the emissaries of the man who showed us how to be free. They lead us to a planet that is bright and free. Keep going, keep going.”
More verses describe other alleged organizations within the mysterious religion.
One was about the Hubbard Guidance Center’s “auditors,” who Jenna claimed would solicit donations and interrogate members — and might even use de facto polygraph tests.
She sang, “The Auditors in the HGC use technology to free beings. Every being, not just you and me. Keep going, keep going.”
Another verse, she claimed, is about the “supreme body in Scientology: the Religious Technology Center.”
The last verse, according to Jenna, reads: “Keep the ship on course. Keep the goal strong. I’m going to the stars. Here’s the rudder. Doesn’t last long. Keep going, keep going.”
Since leaving Scientology, Jenna has become one of the organization’s fiercest critics and has written a memoir entitled “My Secret Life Within Scientology and My Harrowing Escape.”
Jenna met her future husband, Dallas, as a child at a boarding school in Florida, where the couple trained to become members of the Scientology Sea Organization.

After finishing the song, Jenna remembered not being aware of its meaning as a little girl at the Sea Org center.
She said she graduated from there at age 18 and remained a Scientologist for three more years before leaving.
“Yeah, so I just think it’s really interesting to teach kids to sing things that they don’t really know what they’re singing about — especially in the verse about Cadets,” she said.
‘It says how we train to become “Top Flight” Sea Org members, you know – but we don’t even get an education where we know what our chances in life are, or what our rights are – or anything like that.’
“I mean, I was completely disconnected from the outside world,” she continued. “We basically parade in front of them on a stage and sing songs to them like we’re just cute little kids, and like we don’t do manual labor every day.
“And we’re so proud of ourselves for doing this, because we know our parents will be proud of us – something we all desperately want, because we don’t even live with our parents. And yeah, that’s just so messed up,” she concluded.
