The answer seems close today (Now)
I just let it all fall away (Now)
The past doesn't matter anyway (Now)
People come gather round this way (Now)

In a city of individuals and subliminal rituals
I dismiss the cynical for a brand new interval
superficiality fades as I ripen my focus
and take notice of secrets the world has shown us
this deeper knowledge philosophers teach you
like this prophet of peace with a soul that I speak through
Ethereal material infused with the miracle of the spiritual
On this realm I dabble in the lyrical
my real education, outside of the maze
fly to the sky and flow like the waves
-Remaining constant yet forever in flux
As I lift from the crux and do what I must
- Approaching the cusp of a new time to be
Hip hop is the holy water that's
replenishing me. In these streets I'm free,
fulfilling sonically the destiny of my prophecy
How is that for an analogy?
(without regret or apology)

The material world so dried out and tasteless
wasteful and shattered in unsustained crazes
Now back to the basics, Escape from the matrix
where all you see are beautiful faces
Now is here, it's like some kind of oasis
I have stepped through the veils, through dimensions and phases
I've witnessed cessation of hate, the correlation
between inspiration and the elevation of our fate
Accumulation of true communication
Unification is revelations of relations
Understanding translations of ancient excavations
Infiltration of states of domination
-New formations raising our sensations
Hip Hop rises way up from dirty basements
first violent, now compassionate and patient
lost in the music but still know where my day went
