lyrics

Back to nature
The only savior
Meet your maker
And return the favor

It’s Strange times to be alive,
Brought to the cusp
Of the divide only to learn
The other is us,
Our legacy intertwined
Struggle makes us one
Drawn into each other’s lives
Shared plight, like when stars and planets align
Why I rap, why I write
To be the juxtaposition
A sea change is the crux of my vision
Flip scripts like Shakespeare
Bend minds like surrealist painters
Speak truth to power til it remains clear
In our final hour,
Not going through the motions
Not rocking the boat on the lonely ocean
I’m Sinking tha fucker til I get you open
We’re out of control, we know
Letting go of ego
A billion choices reveal
Our potential as equals
We must create
And cross pollinate
Until minds Fluctuate
Unite the human race
And communicate
Our ever-changing
State of grace
Cosmic dance
Of fate and chance
Free will & circumstance


Back to nature
The only savior
Meet your maker
And return the favor
Nothing is static and fixed
In a simple twist of fate
Change is the only constant



Our revolution is an evolutionary process,
A cycle of progress that cannot be stopped
Continual quest for root causes
It cannot be sold. It cannot be bought
Its social, economic, technological
Artistic, musical, philosophical
But None of these are possible
Without the revolution of the self.
Intertwining your struggle with someone else
It’s the parts, it’s the whole, it’s holistic
In reality, it’s a total synthesis,
A feedback loop that’s intricate
A grand confluence of forces,
Our plans, words, and actions
Will help steer the courses,


Back to nature
The only savior
Meet your maker
And return the favor
Nothing is static and fixed
In a simple twist of fate
Change is the only constant
