From Here
this is now
past is past
recognize what holds you back
if you want to be free
it’s the steps you take from here
but if you run from the past
it will meet you where you land
rest the dead
on we go
rest the dead
on we go
you and I
we decide
what will live
and what will die
where we go
is from here
accepting we’re creating it
what we do every day
is the life we make, we make
every step that we take
makes a print that seals our fate
where we go is from here
accepting we’re creating it
accepting we’re creating it
accepting we’re creating it

Elimination Game

Elimination Game
when everything that’s said is for a reason
everything on this lower plane’s just for a season
everything I said to you
don’t need a sound
I smell your fragrance fill the rooms of my mind
meditation now
I break free
erasing everything of my lower self
this holy matrimony
takes away the drain of all lower days
I’m free
I’m anything
i be
no need
to explain
within
destroy all enemies
it’s an elimination game
everything that shakes your reason
everything that takes away your ease from you
it’s only making all the waves
that will take us to new shores
and we’ll...
be free
from everything we think
we need to attain
within
destroy all enemies
it’s an elimination game

Sacred Name

Sacred Name
I saw your sacrifice
you set yourself aside for others’ lives
you just closed your eyes
put your head down and resigned
was it too much to bear
well almost no one (would) ever know
the weight you carried
but when you opened up
I saw into your heart
and I wanted in
I wanted everything that you wanted
this life we get
this life is all we wanted to live
no one but you could speak for me
and I will be screaming into days
and shouting into space
we’re on testing ground
it saw us nearly break (breaking) down
what we’re hearing now
we can’t hear nothing else but this sound
it’s like a voice inside
is calling us to claim what we’ve found
there’s no turning back
we can never turn around
no one but you could speak for me
and I will be screaming into days
and shouting into space
for your sacred name

Iterate
all I can
do is me
the paths have been engineered
by the men of ideas
it’s why we blame the institutions
they’re just fulfilling their aims
can’t break free
inside
we make some inner changes
it’s time for exiting the game
we’ll fight for our inner freedom
and take the first steps on our way
we can break free
from within
discipline
from within

Sick and Tired

Sick and Tired
are you feeling tired?
are you sick and tired?
are you feeling tired?
are you sick and tired?
you work all day
for the fuckin’ system that eats your energy (repeat)
you spent your days working so damn hard
it must take away from your soul's desire
it’s like a pull to be so involved
you spent your life in some noble causes
but you’re feeling tired
you’re so sick and tired
you feel exhausted
is your dream denied?
you work all day
for the fuckin’ system
that keeps you entertained
to spend your days working so damn hard
it must take away from your soul's desire
it’s like a pull to be so involved
you spent your life in some noble causes
but you’re so sick and tired
you’re so sick and tired
you’re sick and tired

Presets

Presets
lightning don’t strike the rail again
thunder will show the distance
presets are lurking in your head
presets are lurking in your head
don’t let them
kill your intuition
presets are lurking in your head
I can’t just lower my gaze
when I’m in high elevation
presets don’t work in my head
I can’t just follow what’s been said
instincts are waking up the dead
presets have kept them in the grave
it’s hard to breathe
but I’m safe
held in beloved’s embrace
want you to stay the night in case (my light’s gone out)
wanting to stay where it’s safe (what can I trust)
is there a spirit here with me (stuck to my face)
can we accept that it’s fate
reset the words in your head
instincts are already there
but presets are lurking in your head
don’t let them play upon your fears
want you to stay the night in case (my lights gone out)
wanting to stay where it’s safe (what can I trust)
is there a spirit here with me (stuck to my face)
can we accept that it’s fate
is it too late
can we escape

Lock and Key
what we think
never gonna be shit
what we say
never gonna be it
what’s inside can’t be hidden
rejoin like a colorform
no shape
meld back to the one
what we think
never gonna be shit
what we say
never gonna be it
what’s inside can’t be hidden
rejoin like a colorform
no shape
meld back to the one (repeat)
same lock key for it
same lock and key for it
rejoin like a colorform
no shape
meld back into one
see ghosts of the seasons gone
what goes into the beyond
same lock key for it
same lock key for it
same lock key for it
same lock and key for it
same lock key for it
same lock and key for it

Say it Anyway
right news, left news

why choose, don’t use
stay true, can you
refrain from the cycle
that trains you
in plain view
this cycle

it’s not what
they tell you
United States

United Nations just a fucking gang
acting like it’s peace they want
just to secure the bank
right news, left news

They Want a War
exclamation desolation
if they drop the bombs
if you think it’s peace they want
this thinking might be wrong
they want a war
they want a war
they want a war
they want a war
they want a war
is there a question?
they wanna sell their weapons (repeat)
hard times befallen the nations
war crimes go on and on and on
hard times befallen the nations
war crimes go on and on and on
prices rising, inflation
who pays the cost
desolation exclamation
if they drop the bombs
if you think it’s peace they want
this thinking might be wrong
they want a war
they want a war
they want a war
they want a war
they want a war
is there a question?
they wanna sell their weapons

Endless Cycles
what’s in this elation
what’s it telling me
what’s in this depression
why’s it so complete
how can I make sense of
all these endless changes
what’s with this obsession
why’s it killing me
these days
I’m fine, but
next week
I’m down all again
I can’t
keep riding these waves
I’m drowning
in this cycle endlessly
bright then burning out
outer space, inner space
keeps on turning round
these days
I’m down and
the pressure’s building up like clouds
electric storms turn violent
return to earth to find our ground
in this cycle endlessly
bright then burning out
outer space, inner space
keeps on turning round
in the present can we see the
shadow of the now

Designer
you’ll never teach a rude boy
can’t never keep the suit fine
don’t ever seek the room if
you’re gonna redesign it
you’re gonna redesign it (repeat)
it’s like a secret truth that never leaves your mind
can’t have your cake and eat it
can’t have your own designs
can’t have your own desire
there’s only one designer
there’s only one designer
when all the seeds are fruits then
you’ll know the reason why
can’t grow a fig in June yeah
there’s an appointed time
it’s an appointed time
there’s only one designer
there’s only one designer
you can’t teach a rude boy
you can’t lead the blind
you’ll never change a Sufi
you’ll never redesign her
you cannot redesign her
she’s got a natural light
you can’t put out her fire
