In your every whisper There is an invocation In your every complaint Lies a wish to subjugate Are you gonna feed the thought that binds you Are you gonna seek the will to break through Are you gonna seize the opportunity Are you gonna be your own worst enemy In every counter move Lies consent to play the game Which one's the victim? Who's the one who perpetrates? It may feel like the worlds against you Have you been the one to contribute to it too? Time to clear the muck around you Time to bear a blade to clear a path through it too It takes a lot of soul To get your heart in place It takes a lot to know How to live in grace

So many people use their intelligence To come up with reasons why they're fucked When the one you love insists on putting themselves down It's like part of them saying that your love is wrong Baby you can test me if you will just don't be a dick to yourself Darling I can take a jibe or two just don't be a dick to yourself Does it really make you feel good to doubt us so? Or to keep on pushing till I let you go? It might appease your self destructive mind But it could have been alright if you left those thoughts behind Baby you can test me if you will just don't be a dick to yourself Darling I can take a jibe or two just don't be a dick to yourself If you only I could help you build your ego, lessen your pride Cause honey I know how it feels to live with a dissonant mind But now I'm leaving that shit behind Baby you can test me if you will just don't be a dick to yourself Darling I can take a jibe or two just don't be a dick to yourself

Every's dealing with the devil inside But you doubled down on a dick move, Luciferian pride Thought is would elevate you, everyone would abide But you dug your own hole and you fell inside When you put it like that, makes it seem like you can't face the facts Playing the Oppressor again, while you put on a victim face When you talk like that, everybody knows that you ain't all that You put somebody down, feel like a King but you're playing the clown Everybody deals with, obsession and blame Yeah you've had it hard once we can all say the same Someone done you wrong a long time ago That's history baby, you've got to stop passing that shit along When you put it like that, makes it seem like you can't face the facts Playing the Oppressor again, while you put on a victim face When you talk like that, everybody knows that you ain't all that You put somebody down, feel like a King but you're playing the clown

I am the sun I am the rain Close your eyes and feel the same I am the moon In the sky Look up high and wonder why I am the beat In the heart Of every soul that's taking part But tell me who are you? Transcendence I am the song I am the words Move your lips to the verse I am the point In the glare Of the light that's everywhere I am the drop In the ocean Boundless chaos set in motion But tell me where does it end with you?

Orbiting bodies, in love's gravity You thought she was gone, then she comes back your way She don't want to hurt you so she pulls away She don't wanna be without you back from outer space That's what you get when you love a satellite The stronger the attraction, the more unstable the flight Orbiting bodies, in love's gravity What goes around comes around, like relativity Under the weight of her responsibility She can't just love you in all vulnerability It's so exciting the tension and release Here she comes again, like comet, hurtling

Let me borrow your point of view, I'm done with mine Why don't you tell me a thing or two, pull my head in line Don't take it apart, if you can't put it back together To heal is your desire, but you can't always make things better Our love, Like passing storms I've got a world to show you Been stumbling Like a new born All this love and death things become unglued I tried to satisfy your mind, like with friends before But all that's you just goes on and on, never know you, there's always more Walking on the grass, barefoot, there's wonder in your eyes The way that you react distracts, my complicated mind Don't take it apart, if you can't put it back together I wanted to set your heart at ease, but some things I can't make better Bringing me to life Without even trying In eccentric orbit like two satellites I've got the patience and desire If you've got the time Ain't no feeling in the world like when our two hearts combine. Don't take it apart, if you can't put it back together I wanted to set your heart at ease, but some things I can't make better

I know, I'm a piece of the universe Therefore why the universe knows abut me And all of the things that I've seen That we've gone wrong But Lord Knows, I'm trying to make good of it I'm trying to make good of it I know that we're a piece of the everything That's why, the everything knows about you And all of the things that you do That you've done me wrong So won't you try and make good of it I'm trying to make good of it Lord knows I'm trying to make good of it The moon's cheeky smile Says you aren't so small little one So won't you try and and get by Make a low into a high I'm trying to make good of it Lord knows I'm trying to make good of it So won't you try and make good of it Lord knows I'm trying to make good of it

There's a being within you that doesn't have your best interests at heart A Curse of your own creation, but you don't know where it started It tells you that you're hungry when you've eaten your full It tells you you're unwanted though there's people all around you Small people with their big desires Swollen hearts, breed prideful lies It's all in you it's not what you have to do You're stronger than you think There's power Even at the brink You can't kill it by fighting cos you feel all it's pain You can't argue with it because you and it are the same It tells you your desires, if only you would hear Just a part of your being that you need to repair Small people with their big desires Swollen hearts, breed prideful lies It's all in you, don't it tell you what to do You're stronger than you think There's power Even at the brink Small people with their big desires Swollen hearts, breed prideful lies It's all in you don't it control what to do You're stronger than you think There's power Even at the brink

There's a creeper strangling his garden That she promised to maintain Green vine tethers crawling inside her Stop her thoughts from floating free True will, I don't want to fight with life no more True will, I don't want to fight with love no more There's a black spell causing her hunger She parts with money to it's demand Consuming, never satisfying Spell of the advertising brand True will, I don't want to fight with life no more True will, I don't want to fight with love no more A Personality inside her Tells her to give in every time The vine, growing thick around her She takes the clippers in her hand! True will, I don't want to fight with life no more True will, I don't want to fight with love no more

Hanging out with the thoughts that haunt and taunt Till you gain equilibrium And even when you've sorted it out You can't always talk about it or find the words Swirling currents of heart-felt flows Tug at your clothes The brain that explains is left behind by the primitive mind Some of these things are so complex they vex and hex The ordinary life And if you try and simplify, it might just blight The Comprehension Twirling notions like dulling potions refuse to take form In ways that, explain to others, words are smothered So maybe it's best to wait Don't participate, in the urgency Hold on till your breath becomes free From the complexity And you feel relief Swirling currents of heartfelt flows Tug at your clothes I'll still be here in days to come If you need someone

Floating on a raft of wakeful thoughts Unknown depths beneath me Without sleep's oblivion How Long Can A Mo-ment Streeeetch... Longer with Each Breath The promised dream Won't come until Wake's unravelling Rocking on the delta waves adrift I consider Spilling off the edge As I rest my weary head Night's contemplation, Was it always such before... I took on a human body did I get up to much? Did I get up to much? Did I get up to much? Did I get up to much?
