Picture a Place (feat. Tetrarue, Wes Wright & Chance 1)

Picture a place that resides in a state of spiritual consciousness that's never fake

If we all had no face and we all had no race, there would be no individuals to hate

We wouldn't shine or debate, we'd be sublime with our fate

And egos would be characteristics of apes

But it's here that we wait, living in fear of what we make

Now scared of new bombs, once scared of earthquakes

They say life is based on evolution

Constantly adapting with new problems comes new solutions

And so on and so on, bright days and dark nights keep passing

I catch myself drinking late night, to numb old my memories flashing

As new lights get lit, old lights go out

From what used to be plenty, now it's drought

Life is like a rollercoaster, no doubt

People killing one another over money and power

An inescapable threat like Saron, the evil eye watching from his tower

After hour, minute after minute, hate keeps spreading, people keep sinning

At war to be number one, but nobody's really winning

Cause in the ending, we all live on the same rock spinning

It's time to open our eyes and see what's real

Cause with the truth, we could all be grinning

Picture a place that resides in a state of spiritual consciousness that's never fake

If we all had no face and we all had no race, there would be no individuals to hate

We wouldn't shine or debate, we'd be sublime with our fate

And egos would be characteristics of apes

But it's here that we wait, living in fear of what we make

Now scared of new bombs, once scared of earthquakes

Somewhere down this road of life, people lost their way

As if the knowledge of life was just locked away

We once had it, we must have just forgot those days

Cause now we look up to the sky, to the gods we pray

Not recognizing that it just lies right inside us

And that the truth is just a tie, doesn't choose no sides of fighting

Cause there's no violence that's righteous so why this lie to self in life denial

can't we see through the trials arising cause only the truth can judge us

So we can make a truce thats used to rule by grudges

Living by the evil root of money, only talking in dollars

That's why real communication is a crucial subject

So we can stop to solve this awful problem

Make use of love, but it's as far from flawless as we can get

Beliefs can set aside, we're all just products of divinity

The absolute entity

So we're all in the same religion, despite us thinking differently

Picture a place that resides in a state of spiritual consciousness that's never fake

If we all had no face, and we all had no race

There would be no individuals to hate

We wouldn't shine or debate, we'd be sublime with our fate

And egos would be characteristics of apes

But it's here that we wait, living in fear of what we make

Now scared of new bombs, once scared of earthquakes

Looking at the world as a whole is hard

Especially when the next block seems so far

Next to the yard on the cement, reaching for stars

A little boy dances to the rhythm of the cars

Driving by, I wonder what he'll go through or grow to from now till his next size or shoe

And what's a guy to do to ensure change will take place

Break this maze and help the shine like sun rays

Someday I hope to see my son play

In a place where there's even more to be thankful for

As I open the door and head for the street

I remember to grow even when this road gets steep

So I'm throwing a peep at what I think is neat

Hope is something you should sow when you're sleeping

Ain't embarrassed to say that's why we do it

Providing a spark of life and light through this music

Picture a place that resides in a state of spiritual consciousness that's never fake

If we all had no face, and we all had no race

There would be no individuals to hate

We wouldn't shine or debate, we'd be sublime with our fate

And egos would be characteristics of apes

But it's here that we wait, living in fear of what we make

Now scared of new bombs, once scared of earthquakes
