Lyrics

Now with your thoughts all, seepin' out from full
Cauldrons it bubbles, been afraid of your power
Can you stand in your own two, you can land if you want to
Let them say what they want to, hm
Now with your thoughts all, seepin' out from full
Cauldrons it bubbles, been afraid of your power
Can you stand in your own two, you can land if you want to
Let them say what they want to
One, two, ah
Read the tea leaves bitter dat brew, but now I believe
Heart is the oracle what can I do?
But love, now love teach me to receive
Out in the darkness I lost my peace
Got guides on side, what a relief
'Cause I do stray
Wotless stop out, had dem days
Far too have to be dropout
Still got lock out lookin' for beds to lay
Yung romantic from whadey too old soul to play
Of water and spirt like malidoma Some
They claim woke from a coma, sway on their daily dose of soma
Fly til the feelings fray awful
Young tool trapped in a mental borstal
Boxed in posturin', born into costly skin
No more auction block for me
No way your acostin' him
Quick, dash in my moccasins
Free from all nations, risin' sun
A daily persuasion, channel the one and step in Iration
Wash away in waves
Now with your thoughts all, seepin' out from full
Cauldrons it bubbles, been afraid of your power
Can you stand in your own two, you can land if you want to
Let them say what they want to
Arrangin' a trade of your fruits, these punnets are sacred
Thought it was simple; calm in the rouge red
Strobe black ricochet flash through the movements rash
Can't latch to a loose end
Or get attached like I used to
Push and pull mercurial hoops bend
Melt through the weekends scrape through the routine, or lack of
Think i been here been better
Battle been grin n bare n cant let up
Infinite threads in thought meta
Mazza cant bend the banks of the river, nah
Pray the flow will deliver us
With the past future simultaneous
Ancestors through millennia
How you gonna get yours if you never ask?
Oh, If you never do
Water the green new little shoots, shirt
Do it for the stars (stars)
Ooh ah, know were bubblin', bubblin'
Razor sharp and in rhythm
Made the mark and then hit em (hit em)
Eye to eye with the city (yeah)
Face the fear with full vigour (vigour)
Talked to god with no vicar
In the icu at st marys man came close to ghost but no cigar
Aint boasting nope i just figure
If i meant to dead i would dead
So true, say here I'm lit with soul inna
Simulation in civi, lisation pourin' out liquor
Libations pourin' out
Howlin', wailin' out misa- ries
He is the reason is that I'll miss her
Still reason grief or wizard
Real tearful or dry cry
Miserable and red eye
Lowest days I went bed high
Led by rizzla sizzla and red thai
Rocky road but we tread it
Crack the skin and then shed it
Word is bond if I said it
You can bless the day but still dread it
Call Allah on his percy
Mercy me oh why dem man curse me
Mental battle and verse me
Try mek duppy and hearse me
Resurrection I'm used to
Past life peak so nuttin unusual
Clean hearted and crucial
Soul tie, remain tight with my mutuals
Dry cry one of them day-e-ayes
With the up n down feel it in the wings
The way i step down tectonic plates
With the burden heavy drop it it shakes
No breaks, brave face
Tryna release and it rise either way-e-aye
I'm the source and the enemy at same time
Simultaneous energies adjacent
Side by side we tesselate
Perpendicular pattern in the paint
Careless splatter this ain't
We leave a mark but don't taint
Leave no trace replace resources depleted or face
Da wrath and fire of gaia
They chase base desires no grace
Its smoke its chase its mirrorin' faith is quiverin'
Who is in charge, is it destiny thats pullin' this part
This heart been splittin' then gaffa tape up
Who's man's in this I'm pissed
Put me anywhere gaffer imma put in a shift
They flaff I'm flabbergasted and miffed
They miss miss this planet a gift
Open the palm to bare fist
Calm motion the pain to surface
Outta the dark and deep mist
Reborn sweaty sweet and sun kissed
