It’s all coming together right here now 2x It’s all coming together right here Who’s that? It’s love can you feel it coming through that? Conscious revolutionary music Yeah you can feel it in your veins Let it seep into your brain, remain It’s like a renaissance coming down upon us all around A warm jungle rain with the steady soft sound Beneath the canopy on solid dry ground The tribe members huddled up smokin’, blowin’ clouds While the poets speak from the coração Transform to the modern day – it’s us and the crowd When I kick rhymes it’s straight from the soul Ain’t been a minute since I let a sucka know If you on the negative, homie gotta go ‘Cuz we irie in here homie pass the dro I stand by while you’re passin’ the dro And I’m sippin’ brew but neither one is out of control It won’t prevent us from writin’ dope passionate flows Or feelin’ the love that can happen at shows Love is when you really connect, it’s respect It’s people that you wanna protect And for the lump in your neck first get the words out Butterflies are normal when you care how it turns out Take it slow when you don’t wanna burn out Anyone inhibiting your growth should be blurred out Recognize each piece of the puzzle Pay attention to the signs yeah the signs remain subtle (Chorus) Yeah you can feel it on your skin outside to within, begin It’s like a movie but we’re making up the script as we go Making choices based on what we think that we know While the challenges are difficult and hurtful Looking back I’ve seen my life roles go full circle Transform from the fan to the artist Positivity from a portrait of my hardship Ever had the chance to be the inspiration In somebody else’s day? It’s a hard knock’s road and a heavy load When you got nothing useful to say Let’s take this opportunity to celebrate life The modern world struggle could be left to the side for tonight ‘Cuz we should be howlin’ at the moon Dancin’ by the fire while the spirit is in bloom Take this one chance to celebrate life The modern world struggle should be left to the side for tonight We should be howlin’ at the moon Dancin’ by the fire, the spirit is in bloom We love this life! We work for what we know is right Know your passion’s reaction to what’s in your soul So we focus and we harness And we let it grow and we let you know That we stand right here for the revolution Love is embracing you exist Not only revolutionaries raising up our first Carbon-based lifeforms searchin’ for their bliss Bet you never seen another time like this The universe allowed me to find my niche And no one ever taught me how to rhyme like this But ya put the round peg in the round hole And violá - that’s the story of how I found soul Love is straight from the heart Lesson in a broken one tear it all apart When Babylon gets you down turn it into art I write how I wanna feel and that’s where I start Love for the romance check buffalo stance Hip hop ya don’t stop the body rock Love is more than a word Language can’t give what it truly deserves But we know what it means intuitively Yeah words and reality are two different things Love is more than feeling, it’s what your heart’s concealing It’s everyday revealing, it’s how you livin’ your life yeah

If you alive then breathe in ‘Cuz I wanna give the people somethin’ to believe in If you deceivin’ be exposed so The people know exactly what they should oppose yo If you alive then feel good Give thanks for your days recognize like you should If you a screw face stressin’ out Open up your fuckin’ heart let the pressure out Blam! Here the fuck I am Ready to initiate a revolution right here where I stand Who that be with a phat beat Talkin’ about tryin’ to make the people happy It’s my life and my right to enjoy it Give thanks for my life – and I Give thanks for my life – and I get by It’s my life and my right to explore it Give thanks for my life – and I Give thanks for my life – and I get by I run around like a chicken with its head cut off Sleep deprived all just to get by Real results - into my life I invite The insight needed to get the fuck up out the pig sty Wince while my sis smokes smack and sniffs lines In and out of detox for the 5th time Accruin’ mad debt, diggin’ a hole Like she’s a magnet, no self-control But I know there’s much more to life than pleasure see And the pleasure’s much more than just sensory I’m thinkin’ long term settin’ my goals yo And if I falter at least I know That I tried to keep a smile trekkin’ mile after mile Life is climbing a mountain - each segment is a trial So peep the progress and memorize What you’ve accomplished and recognize That there’s always more to see beyond the next horizon Soak it in and simultaneously exercisin’ Life – it wasn’t meant to be wasted Society balanced with the inner vibration 2x (Chorus) We keep on with the travellin’ Inner demons that we are battlin’ What was tying us down is now unravelin’ Yo we tryin’ to live right – right It’s easy to divide, takes effort to unite Anyone can criticize or find what they don’t like What they don’t like is usually self-reflection Energies spreading out in multiple directions Connections, yo the meaning of life is life Ya heard me said the meaning of life Is why we kick the positivity and uplift the vibes Spread love to the people, reconnect with tribes Your ego’s on a rampage and it’s unfounded Look around we’re all boundless This silly chump thinks he’s spiritually Superior to Linguístory and MCAD But yo we’ll wreck your ego back in check Microphone check, suckas disrespect. Why they disrespect? ‘Cuz we speak with a mish mash lingo And challenge the views of a privileged gringo B-I-N-G-O, yo bingo! (Chorus)

It takes courage, courage just to be yourself Courage not to be like anyone else It takes courage, courage just to be yourself Courage not to be like everyone else 2x Hey yo fuck ‘em – anyone who tells you to be Anything less than what you feel you’re destined to be Inevitably people go with the herd, fuck what ya heard I’m ghetto educated ya nerd, puffin’ the herb I ain’t got no complex Nigga wasn’t raised in the Midwest projects I flex hard like the rest of ‘em Champion wanna test? Bring the best of ‘em And for the rest of ‘em – keep it real Power to the people, respect, you know the deal I’m 5 foot 9 light skinned sucka oreo That’s what the haters used to say, how the story go It’s one drop of the race call me out a coon A new school Darwinian baboon Or whitewashed if you ask any hater brotha I ain’t your fuckin’ nigga ‘cuz you hate my mother ‘Cuz she’s whiter than the sheets under my fluffy cover I’m thankful that I’m here and so I gotta love her Nevermind the reason that you hold somebody else above her Your fear is still the reason why the world is fighting, yeah Yo courage for the strength to look back But also to move forward in fact It’s a blessing to be humble and strong We need to start uniting, yeah Yo courage for the fact that we’re here Courage every day of the year So the people find the strength to get along I’m from the city where Ted Haggard’s seen as a savior I took Sociology of Deviant Behavior And felt like I was readin’ about my crew in the textbook Made me wanna hit these academics with a left hook For turnin’ individuality simplistic Makin’ their rebellious mentality statistics Box in and categorize misfits Discouraging cats from tryin’ to make a difference But the truth is no one really fits in a box Those that do are the ones we should watch You should’ve seen the look on their face Audience full of gangstas when I took to the stage, yo You should hear the responses I get When people ask what type of music I say “hip hop, legit” Straight up I’m rockin’ sandals and flannels And if I was famous I wouldn’t change the channel Fuck it ‘cuz every word I spit comes from the heart And I’m thankful just to play my part I’m gonna be the Gary Snyder of hip hop An earth child livin’ and writin’ nonstop When I’m dried up with nothin’ left to say I could write some pussy ass music like The Fray But until that day I’m turning insight into rhyme To be unique is to be divine (Chorus) It takes courage – it takes what? 3x

I look to the east and watch the sun rise As if light and land were making love before my eyes I see my son sleeping in his mother’s arms As if her inner strength was what kept him from the harm I see so many people living on this globe If you let your light shine you could never be alone I’m looking back and for every night I’ve wasted I’m making up for lost time living my creations Yeah from NYC building tops to CO mountain tops If true love can be found or not I’m still willing to try ‘Cuz it’s the means not the ends so I’m willing to die Precisely because I love this life see I’m not bored – I let the grand allure entice me And lately seems the world innately Needs some revolution soul like MCAD I’m blending beats with poetic introspection A paradox to look within for outward connections But I figure if I share this with you The worst that could happen’s we don’t share the same views So give it a spin, a minute or ten Take a sec to realize that you’re living again Our soul purpose is to cultivate the essence Using this communication aiming at transcendence (Chorus) Harness – energies arising Grounded to the Earth then I open up my eyes And I see this light is naturally And beautiful Earth is precious and organically Connected to the stars Connected to the rhythm and the pulses of 16 bars Connected to the essence Connected to this moment right now just to recognize my presence Love – the center of the sun And harnessing the mysteries that make this life fun It’s a beautiful day to be alive here Yeah it’s true, we all die here But living is the reason that we learn to be strong And it shows. Be mindful of the way that it flows And if you open up your heart and show it love then it grows And that’s truth. Check it yo I’m living proof That facts are not always what is real, here’s the deal Truth, yo it changes with time. And your mind Your mind is something that we can’t find in this place Energies, particles, and space (Chorus) Love’s the only way To make this world a better place to live our days, yeah 2x That’s love that comes from the heart undercover Not just what couples feel for one another It’s love galore once you figure out your true mission And every step as your vision comes to fruition A seed transforms into an oak tree A helpless little infant becomes an adult We watch joyously the gradual transformation Of ideas into realities beyond imagination So follow what it is that sparks your fascination Peeps that gain your admiration Makes your gravitational pull What we used to do after school and it’s true The only one who really knows your aspirations is you You, you, you shining there Wherever you let your mind go Make sure you open up and let your loving flow Yeah, my soul purpose What is, what is your soul purpose? What is my soul purpose? 3x (Do you know what it is?)

The things we see ain’t never gonna change unless we Organize and come together right now let’s see If we can live without this war, if love is what we’re fighting for Then maybe we could find some peace or at least some love Instead of all this Bloodshed, gunfire aiming for the masses The devil man collecting your taxes Burn fire to blaze down this Babylon It’s my rights to Earth that we’re standing on Real change not false hope and promises I don’t trust a single thing Obama says It’s just my family and me out here strugglin’ to be My daughter’s more than just a worker bee, she’s born to exceed All the mandatory exercises fuelin’ the greed I’ma teach her how to live with the Earth and harvest the seed, but (Chorus) Madness comin’ from a world so savage It’s the nature of the beast that the average head must survive But regardless of the damage Once our belly’s full we move on to livin’ lavish And they said it was the decade of the Mother Earth Why? ‘Cuz we shopped at Whole Foods while she fuckin’ burned? How do we achieve unity? Community fragmented – won’t unite ‘til we’re singin’ eulogies Then it’s back to just livin’ for the now We want change but can’t get past the how Can’t even agree what it’s all about The question is - Are we gonna be around when it all comes down? (Chorus)

Said they all still sittin’ there, don’t wanna do the work Say they wanna be free but me see That they all still sittin’ there don’t wanna do the work 2x In an age where the real kings and queens are unseen Our eyes are all veiled by different shades of green I can’t wrap my head around the complex schemes Being carried out in upper echelons behind the scenes Bettin’ against the debt they’re sellin’ as collateral We’re like some fenced in but well-pacified animals I’m driving back and forth to work chillin’ in my off time Tryin’ to comprehend my small role with my small mind So few even think about the big picture Those of us who do get discouraged by the figures Never enough time to sift through all the jargon We repeat half-truths – even I’m a fuckin’ charlatan It’s no surprise we wanna close our eyes Feed our nuclear families, no room for closer ties And that’s how economic slavery goes on We’re caught up in the system so we can’t see beyond Yeah you’re free to go and try to make a fortune But it’s mathematical fact that only a small portion can The difference in wealth is disproportionate To the difference in intelligence but we’re supportin’ it So fuck the 1 percent, I’m all about the 99 It seems impossible but I say it’s ‘bout time we tried (Chorus) Hey it’s the end of the day And I’m fuckin’ exhausted what can I say I wanna smoke weed and really just kick back Spend time with my queen and relax I just worked for 23 days in a row This shit’s gettin’ outta control I swear to god I’m fuckin’ losin’ it Now she’s boozin’ it Tryin’ to kill the memories and the pain It seems like everybody’s got somebody to blame And I know there’s bigger issues at hand Yet I stand disconnected from the bigger picture Look at me I’m a wisher and a disser And everyone can diss alright But it’s time to come together like a fist, unite And rise tall, stand again And learn to build your confidence And it feels good just to be alive But don’t ever let the feeling be complacent I’ve seen music heal a junkie in a basement Even if it’s only for a moment’s time, and a rhyme I swear to fuckin’ god it can change the way we think And how we feel. You know the revolution is real (Chorus) Now they rise and fight for what they know is right, right on 3x

37 and I still ain't changed Out there hustlin' runnin' them games I don't give a fuck what anyone claims Hiding all the evidence scatter the remains Watch it burn down in flames The Obama's and the John McCain's A new puppet who's taken the reigns Of being the face of someone who explains "Yeah we takin' all your money Worker bees who make us honey" 'Cuz I bet the nectar's so sweet When I dip it in a cup of herbal tea One in one billion heard of me Fuck it I'ma keep screamin' AD Duckin' all you techno wannabe's I’m at mad ease when I'm livin' amongst the trees Whoa-yo, whoa-yo - the Earth has everything we need Whoa-yo, whoa-yo - narcissistic with their selfish wants and greed Whoa-yo, whoa-yo - the Earth has everything we need They sell you fantasies yeah Manipulate your dreams yeah Is nothing what it seems here? New face ain't a damn thing changed Governments here seem so strange Some people only wanna point blame Repeating what they know is insane And how we ever gonna change the game If everybody wants to be the same? Fucked up tryin' to build yourself a name You got lost and you sold your soul for fame I'm willing to accept givin' up my culture O problema é que a Babilônia não me solta (The problem is that Babylon won't let go of me) Yeah this train's not stoppin' anytime soon It's runnin' off the tracks before they would decide to Who bought up all the land and made the common man Grapple with answers to the questions he don't understand? Machine without a face, spawn of the human race Now who's controllin' who? Which one is settin' the pace? Ey yo it's marvelous livin' in this modern metropolis Information at my fingertips, infinite options Oftentimes I hypothesize the world through my father's eyes Would've never ended Now we revel in this evanescence Yeah now it's stretched thin, secretly the greedy men repentin' Like a child who only feels remorse when caught red handed Watch out for the cactuses and thorns Walkin' on this path you should be warned Life wasn't so cancerous before But swallow up 'cause ya had to fit the form All in the name of convenience A nation full of defeatists Join 'em if you can't beat 'em Commerce would crush any modern day Jesus The thing about all this consumption Besides all the eco-destruction Is feeding an endless void, only increasing the psycho-dysfunction Here we are now ridin' out the wave Countin' down, SINGULARITY awaits It's been a journey since man stepped away Human history snowballed to today O céu azul da cor do mar (The blue sky the color of the sea) Tanta beleza ninguém vai notar/lembrar (So much beauty no one will notice/remember) Fauna e flora ao meu redor (Fauna and flora all around me) Relatos deixados por qualquer escritor (Accounts left behind by any writer) Whoa-yo, whoa-yo - the Earth has everything we need Whoa-yo, whoa-yo - narcissistic with their selfish wants and greed Whoa-yo, whoa-yo - the Earth has everything we need Test n me want me, fiah Sell you fantasies, yeah Test n me want me, fiah Manipulate your dreams, yeah Test n me want me, fiah Is nothing what it seems here? Test n me want me, fiah Just shine ya light, say It's revolution Just shine ya light, just shine ya light When the people say It's revolution Just open up and say Love, and shine ya light, and shine ya light And keep on

Yeah I’m still funky as I age I give thanks for the cycles of 7 Try to cultivate wisdom and turn the page Yo I’ve spent a lot of nights lookin’ And howlin’ at the ceiling Not knowin’ I was really tryin’ to howl at the moon But doomed to fail ‘cuz I’m in a manmade room I’m a Wandering Monk but I am not enlightened When we finish up with the set is when I start imbibin’ At that point my soul is a vacuum Cravin’ conversation, my condolence is past due For just waitin’ to talk instead of listenin’ Ego is an existential predicament Kinda like the human mind’s appetite To view things as all cut and dry – either black or white But I’m the problem and solution simultaneously Think about the Mother Earth I want Sabin to see A groovy life like mine As I write my rhyme I excite my mind Death is certain so we shouldn’t be uncomfortable Lest you dedicate your life to nonsense like a Juggalo Yeah fancy meetin’ you here on the planet Let’s live it whether or not god’s hand planned it Yeah I know exactly what it is you talkin’ about I feel like I’m out here walkin’ about everyday Tryin’ to find balance, walkin’ the Tightrope Yo I’ve spent a lot of days deep into thought And thinkin’ about the mystics Statistics tryin’ to shape my destiny Black youth drugs with a gat right next to me Complexity – it’s a beautiful thing It’s black, white, yellow, red and we formin’ a ring I bring hope with our visions Watch love manifest conscious decisions I pretty much roll with the deviants Naturally born with a hustler’s ingredients A walking paradox, a Gemini, a perfect contradiction I’m the Alpha and Omega I’m workin’ for the future of my daughter Tryin’ to do what you’d expect of any good father Livin’ while I’m tryin’ to put the food on my shelf While bio-toxic chemicals attackin’ our health I’m revolutionary, militant but loving as well They say we’re goin’ to heaven but we’re livin’ in hell I watch ‘em swell, egos are burstin’ Fuck what you’re told to be, be a good person

Heartening my fruits, weakening my roots 2x Feelin’ strange in the land of the comfort seekers ‘Til I came to understand they’re not proper teachers Might teach you how to follow leaders Not how to be a sovereign thinker Treat the planet like it’s not a keeper With the plastic life frontin’ like god believers And they act like the shit’s not a problem either I’m confused feelin’ like I’m obsolete This might explain the jungle fever I wore an Indian headband and puffed the reefer Seen as an underachiever Look closer there’s gotta be somethin’ deeper please A product of suburbia Taught that elsewhere live the scurvy ones As a kid never questioned it Or knew what caused the poor man’s deficit But when rap came there was cause for query Back then it was the only way I saw the fury Even though I was only 10 I could hear the pain bleedin’ from the souls of men That hold the pens – a glimpse into a world unknown Disconnected from the culture that dispersed the poems But mysteriously drawn to it Not knowin’ one day I’d be a conduit, like (Chorus) Born out but he wasn’t a keeper Late night insomniac no sleeper Maybe troubles go a little bit deeper I’m not afraid of death but just the grim reaper Economics in a pound and a beeper Fuck what they got I got the shit cheaper Damn it’s as simple as that Live hard, get rich, grow old, and get fat That never was a life for this one Raised in a very complicated condition Praised? Not once, there was more an omission Of positivity in the schooling system So I took it to the streets right My Chanunpa – white man peace pipe Help the youth man to see the light Co-Intel Pro’s there to make you fight Delete me? Another statistic I’m positively goin’ ballistic Why try? You could never resist it Love is a catalyst you better get with it Shift it, now speakin’ of mind frames It’s relative if you speakin’ of time frames L-25 my Einstein Corporations project your prime time Who’s that fuckin’ with me? They wanna poison our food and kill the trees They wanna fill our bodies all up with disease And fertilize what’s naturally found (Chorus) I uplift my roots And I plant them wherever this Earth bears its fruits Roots – like banyan tree community It’s love for the world, it’s all I see It’s peace, love, and unity I uplift my roots And I plant them wherever this Earth bears its fruits And my love is my life

I’m gonna listen to myself, gonna go my own way I don’t pay much attention to what the critics’ll say I’m gonna hold my head up high when I walk Gonna hold my head up high when I walk 2x If my actions were determined by the popular opinion I’d be a quaky paper tissue floatin’ in the wind And I can’t foresee the future when I’m makin’ my decisions At least I know I didn’t fold, I made ‘em from within So what’s an instinct? What’s a gut feeling? Ralph Waldo Emerson did self-reliance hit the ceiling? Don’t go against the grain for the sake of it - the fakest shit! I’ll swim with the stream when it’s authentic, instantaneous Instantaneously goin’ with the flow, don’t ya know There’ll be critics standin’ behind every door, that’s fo sho And I brush off all the judgments to the floor - where the dirt at These hater motherfuckers talkin’ shit - where the turd at You stinky ‘cuz your pinky’s probably bigger than your dick And egomaniacs think they’re so fuckin’ slick When it’s not a battle it’s just my manifestin’ And I’m blessed and ready for the suckas who be tryin’ to test (Chorus) Critics – clueless Cynics be like “who’s this?” Got a lotta dick in they mouth but can’t do shit but run it Talkin’ down another man’s lifestyle Or talkin’ it up but not walked it once I’m not your chump boi I’ll call your bluff It’s obvious y’all not rock wit us The metropolis is full of hopsta punks just like you Imagine the million chumps just like you It’s torturous I’m basically forced to bust On this course because niggas is way more than bug Needin’ way more than hugs and on a daily basis Face it – your whole front – debased it Call it tough love. It’s what you think is what we dub In the cut like Vinyl Grooves it’s the funk That gets us up to put it simple miss me much With that bold chatter ‘cuz I have a whole platter (Chorus)

I can feel you watching me, some have animosity Don’t you know it’s only judgment on yourself I can feel you want to be something that you cannot see Open up it’s time to truly love yourself 2x It seems to me like common sense is understanding ignorance Is hating on yourself when that won’t make you feel right It seems to me like confidence is bordering on arrogance There’s certain people here that seem to have fallen for lies And I can see in front of me obstacles that wanna be Bigger than my faith to overcome mountains that size And I can see inside of me these feelings are dividing me I’m hoping I can find some peace of mind in my life Yo yo, yo what’s it gonna take? I wanna know what’s it gonna take? I gotta know what’s it gonna… Ya ya check it ONE They say that great art fits its own definition Whether or not it ever gets any recognition How many geniuses died unappreciated? How many minds gave up the quest to be creative? I wanna know ‘cuz this isn’t just a hobby, see It’s how I live and develop my philosophy You came to drink but I came to spill my guts So god bless the few people dancin’ in the front Or with your arms crossed, listening intently Afterwards you critique gently or directly We’re here to bust this original rap Wandering Monks on the scene yeah bridgin’ the gaps AD’s native rights, black pride bring it back I’m european american reppin’ cultural awareness The 2 styles – while they blend and intertwine Complement the differences and strengthen both sides Now ya can’t deny the first album’s straight fire Still we’re steady makin’ music tryin’ to take it higher A beat-makin’ soul singer with a literary word slinger Real artists, true thinkers And I think our shit’s deserving of a local buzz And I think our shit’s deserving of a tour buss On the real I know I gotta pay dues But Freedom Movement has - way beyond phase 2 Although I don’t wanna join the game of cuttin’ throats A lotta CO rappers are a fuckin’ joke Wandering Monks but that doesn’t mean we’re Buddhists My ego has to thrive before I call it an illusion (Chorus)

Who am I to describe what the funk is, what the funk means What the funk does to your soul when you let it unfold We all feel it so it’s better left untold Gettin’ back to the captive beast with its confusion, apathy Each life could be a masterpiece But our head is a self-contained catastrophe We like to point our fingers but the target’s movin’ too fast... Hip hop is not redneck music Wanna talk peace? Ya gotta dead that useless rhetoric Think the one in charge is the president? Your rationale is drowned by your sentiments You hate the welfare system These lazy bastards gettin’ money for free While you slave your whole life away... Away we go! Why the fuck you wanna stay here? It’s not rocket science, my people see clear It’s all love but yo some people disrespect That’s why we got a microphone... microphone check Yo love is the reason for the revolution Love in action, not just your lips smashin’ ‘Nuff talkin’ suckas need to get to walkin’ Motherfucker put in the work We got a plan, no it’s not just Fuck The Man We tryin’ to take resources back Yo but first we gotta educate. Scratch that - we gotta care It ain’t worth shit if love ain’t even there It’s funny I was thinkin’ how I used to love to go to just relax And fall asleep in the park Some people like to shine just to ease upon their minds While some other people scared of the dark We know we got some problems but we know we can solve them With love and hard work we know problems can go away... I'm a monk wander longin’ for truth, preach in the booth And give it back to you never retreat - speakin’ it factual Keepin’ it funky fresh freakin’ the facts Feelin’ the soul flower bless my mental to help me relax I'm Bullhead*ded strong - dem dead wrong tryin’ to play us I savor the application when I slay ‘em to the pavement Save your placement, change your bases Keep your hands up ‘cuz only one it takes it Wandering Monks Bullhead*ded starting to jump You get it part of the funk ‘cuz we givin’ them what they want Show and prove but then move slow Move yo body back and forth to the grove smooth yo I break it down, get tinted and stay fly While they 85 dumb, deaf and blind tryin’ to hide Wandering Monks Bullhead*ded we get it live 2x Yeah me, I'm a productive member of society I contribute to when I'm not rioting I enjoy the finer things in life like privacy You enjoy designer jeans and the things you are acquiring Livin’ the life out your cell phone set to the music that I'm pirating I for one cannot get used to all these ironies They trying to take everything I wrote a letter that reads “I want a leader that bleeds” I wrote it anonymously. When I'm gone they'll miss me But right now I'm considered nuisance because I'm ready to fall Bring down the too big to fail and stand up to the institutions They try to distract us with confusion So far it's working, we're losing. So get up and do somethin’ Wandering Monks and Bullhead*ded make you move somethin’ Like mountains - just to prove somethin’ Wandering Monks and Bullhead*ded make you move somethin’ The hills are alive! I got an engine powered by the sound of music It’s stupid to hand the mic to cats afraid to do shit with it Yeah we’re sittin’ in an interesting position ‘Tween the mainstream and snot-nosed hip hop hipsters Ya know you smudged the peanut butter on the chocolate Brethren - 2 great tastes that taste great together ‘Cuz some people they will never get it Wandering Monks together with Bullhead*ed Blau! Colorado’s on the map now We revolutionaries that’s a fact We screamin’ fuck the system, we tried but can’t work with ‘em They call us Bullhead*ed ‘cuz we can’t be bought no way...

The government’s got plans for your kids And it’s more than schools and expensive vids It’s sold off for the highest dollar bids It’s pharmaceuticals flippin’ their lids When they can’t keep focused and they’ve never been inspired By old ghosts who should be retired And they know a dying system when they see it Confused by the elders who teach that they should try to be it Struggling to go against the grain Taught to remain in a straight line never indicating I’m struggling with blowing out my brain How ya gonna tell you’re gon’ be fine When you’re losing your mind right here next to me You were struggling to keep your cool Yo and can ya blame me? Sooner or later we all gotta act normal and just swallow the crazy Take me to safety I’m jaded and lazy I’ll be the face of any propaganda if you pay me Did I let myself get pigeon-holed by the fear of ridicule Or are the prison bars just invisible? The line between what I decide and what’s defined for me Is elusive and blurry like testin’ for sobriety True - contradiction is a part of life Curb the skepticism, our denial’s a survival mechanism Who’s the fool? Who’s the mack? Who’s the richest of the people here supplyin’ the crack? ‘Cuz we know Bill Clinton’s in the middle of a totem pole Even as the president the overseers let him know “You’re just a puppet in a game and we tell you what to do If you know what’s good for you” The whole world got down with some political theater 2012 yuppies fell for predictable leaders You know I love a good laugh with my puppet show To think that calling it that’s so uncomfortable Like “How dare you call a spade a spade? It was a great debate! My black progressive’s here to save the day” Romney was groomed to be a douchy fascist You had to swing left gettin’ lost in semantics ‘Cuz modern presidents are puppets for the crown Your birth certificate is how it’s goin’ down The stock market is another word for slave traders The Red Cross and Illuminati infiltrators The Knights Malta, Lord of the Rings Freemasonic temples and the destiny of kings The looking glass telling what the future brings The letting go of materialistic things Divide and conquer! Divide and conquer people faction by faction (That’s the method they use) No time to bother like the truth’s a distraction (That’s the sad, sad truth) 2x I’d rather know The Truth even when it hurts At least then I know where I’m standin’ to get to work I’d rather know The Truth even when it stings At least then I know where I’m at and can start clean I hear ‘em sayin’ that The Truth is relative I know it’s complex I’m just sayin’ spare us the embellishments I navigate within this web of control And still see opportunities to break the mold And I will play the game if I have to If it’s that or forfeit what would that prove? It’s transformation inside me as I choose my destiny Yo love is more than choice, it’s conviction It’s separation from the wickedest system It’s inspiration inside me and love’s all that I see Yeah we know that time on Earth is precious We ask for guidance every day and hope Creator will direct us With love and truth and proof that there’s more than this With so much suffering it’s time for some bliss Excuse me while I kiss the... Sky is fallin’ with a chemical cloud With all the eco-destruction - can you even stand it? Let’s unify good people and transform the planet Let’s be love, light and lead the way right ‘Cuz I feel so, feel so good tonight

We hard and our tissue is scarred from Young hustlers searchin’ for stardom We’re kinda numb to the world ‘cuz since the beginning We’ve been taught repetition instead of wisdom ‘Cuz they cold and mechanical Watch corporate minds acting unimaginable Yeah from the country to the capital Across all borders the empire is expandible Their egos are fanatical check the mathematical We are incompatible The elite view us as mere animals But they’re the machine - fiendish and irrational I’m fucked tryin’ to pick up my luck ‘Cuz I suck at these 9 to 5’s, Orwellian vibes So don’t sell me your lies then tell me goodbye If I’m gettin’ fucked it might well be defined Big business, big competitions In these military missions in the name of the flag We stagnant society fragments as we polarize Oh what a drag While they call egalitarians commies The ideal neocon promotes death and poverty Shocked politically, not analytically Thinkin’ about the real life prisoners of war I’m lucky that I mostly fight it psychologically Dodgin’ propaganda instead of missiles launched at me Laughin’ at the irony, help the blind to see Illuminati’s in control of our society Where’s the love y’all? 3x And we love revolutionaries on the scene If ya know what I mean then throw your hands up Party people stand up, stand up ‘Cuz it’s been a long time since people showed they cared Steady marchin’ up the stairs of the capital Cops puttin’ tension in the air The same message here is unity Peace and love go out to our community The pigs are at the bottom like us Why do they defend what we don’t trust? ‘Cuz their checks are paid by those who use ‘em as a crutch Show you right son in case you never heard it Power to the people yo that’s the fuckin’ verdict Burn it! Your format needs to be refurbished The people blocked the streets To start with we need a tourniquet Individually part of the collective Balance with the inner peace - choose your directive Yeah from micro to macro It’s time to separate the life flow from the financial We hard knocks - like Jane, Nothing Shocks ‘Cuz my Addiction speaks truth with conviction My affliction with this judicial system Is always being guilty until proven innocent Represent the streets, upper lower class Workin’ in this rat race losin’ all my cash

Illuminati like to see the people struggle Illuminati out there startin’ all the trouble So let us rise and stand against them and choose more love They wanna see us all confused in our own bubble We selfish livin’ while they taxin’ all us double So let us wake to understand them - it’s fear or love But do ya feel us risin’ up, do ya feel us risin’ up 4x So rise and shine again 2x Not withholding, not separate and lonely Even with ourselves we don’t know how not to be phony Spend all day starin’ at a screen or drivin’ through the maze A species with amnesia in denial of its violent ways Get a load of this - don’t throw a fit Surveillance state - or police state You take the bait - you make it great You fight against - you might regret Just as every organization’s structure like a pyramid Society is no exception Usury is interferin’ with our freedom to live on Earth Our freedom - and I care because I love So if you love your life you get involved Meditate or write or rap or bring the heat to City Hall So if you love your life you get involved Sometimes the truth’s so covered up it seems impossible to solve Not withholding, not separate and lonely So rise and shine again Not blindfolded, not ignorant and molded Swallowed so much bullshit we no longer even notice Disinformation - opiate of this here nation Sophisticated ways to neutralize my generation Any leader I believed in ‘til hell froze Findin’ out I’ve been lied to like “hell no!” Yeah they lead the opposition with a swell tone Everybody callin’ everybody Co-Intel Pro But it can’t be that everyone’s a real foe Yeah they track our whole lives on our cell phone And the media monopoly’s a shit show No one here’s really a threat ‘til they’re well known Disinformation - opiate of this here nation Sophisticated ways to neutralize my generation My generation yeah seen so much trouble in this world We tryin’ to make a change ‘cuz what we see needs so much love And I care because I love So if you love your life you get involved Get involved, we hope our people get involved
