These still waters still running deep,
How deep,
(Take my hand)
Come with me, come along with me and see,
The old made new and freed,
Indeed,
1970 to 2015
Kick back relax and blaze the weed,
I save the baby from the dirty bathwater,
Got a diamond from a dung hill,
Good discriminations take patience and will,
Honor and I'm still,
Learnin' to take pictures cause they last longer,
Man you're so chill,
Your waters frozen over,
Is that why you're so cold,
Why your so thick,
I hope you can defrost and get that chip off your shoulder,
Before you grow old,
I hope it come quick,
With the twist of my wrist,
I taught Sisyphus a new trick,
To better roll the bolder,
Till he reaches the top and rolls it over,
Stone sober,
Finally the monotony has quit,
Someone better warn Homer,
I'm coming for every single archetype of the mind,
I'm helping them find,
a better translation in time,
Helping them climb,
Till they get high enough to see the sublime,
Every time, (yeah)
If you open your 3rd eye,
If you seek it you will find,
You will notice,
The lotus blooms under the moon light,
Can I change the tide,
I AM the motion of the ocean or along for the ride,
Oh oh, been feelin' so confused lately,
I collected my belongings and I hit the trail,
Had to go out where I could think a spell,
Had to think a while, Had to think a while,
Now I can tell that for that and this from this,
Truth from myth or hope or wish,
But when I sit back and I reminisce I picture this,
Humanity's overlooking the cliff to the abyss,
And holy shit, it seems like it's coming quick,
With such a big wealth gap between the poor and the rich,
We really need to switch soon,
To a new system,
Before we end up in that ditch human,
It's loomin',
Stop consumin',
The products and the propaganda,
That they hand ya,
There's more to life then just fun stupid,
You need more than pig pleasures to expand ya,
Take those Ayn Rand books and thrown em away,
Go read what Sam Harris has got to say,
Then check some Ken Wilber to be dismayed,
Joseph Campbell should be mandatory reading by at least the 10th grade,
Any Traditional conformist should be afraid,
Most progressive people are still waiting for you to take your stupid ideas with you to your grave,
Without that divisive shit we'd probably be ok,
As far as I'm concerned you can grow up or go away,
Or at least no one should listen to a single thing you say,
It's hard not to be condescending when you refuse to use your brain,
Those defensive ideas are just too deeply ingrained.
(still water)
If you open your 3rd eye,
If you seek it you will find,
You will notice,
The lotus blooms under the moon light,
Listen,
Humans are social animals,
We need each other to help handle,
Ideas that we need to dismantle,
Shine your light like a candle and guid the way,
For these lost sheep out there who've gone astray,
They might tell you that they don't like what you've got to say,
But you gotta keep it real yo it's the only way,
Bad Ideas have real life consequences everyday,
If you really care about people you will speak to where their values and passions lay,
Usually I try to say it in the nicest way,
I'm not mad at the person just the part they play,
I'm not mad cause you're wrong it's the closed minded way,
You use faith to numb your brain,
Ignoring loved ones, facts about reality, so insane,
Your mind can't learn so it stays the same,
And you flush your development right down the drain,
(Like you ain't up on things,
Still,
Still waters run deep)
