[00:00.98]
[00:24.63]I sit staring at a cold sun
[00:26.31]
[00:26.84]Forcing it's rays through the stitches of a grey veil
[00:29.29]
[00:30.14]The sky below is deep but the shades pale
[00:32.22]
[00:32.77]The wind rushes through my spirit like a ship's sail
[00:35.09]
[00:35.78]I'm submerged in this city
[00:37.54]Connect with the earth under pavement
[00:39.54]Searching for nature
[00:40.83]
[00:41.90]I meditate on road under streetlights
[00:44.16]Sit writing and chanting my mantras beneath trees
[00:47.34]Forged with the souls of the ancients
[00:49.29]I thrive off their wisdom
[00:50.66]I drink from the infinite stream of existence
[00:53.56]Strive to sync my moves with the flow of the Tao
[00:56.53]As it was then is as it is now
[00:58.58]
[00:59.70]And as it will be then
[01:01.09]
[01:02.37]Beyond the grasp of women and men
[01:04.08]
[01:05.25]As it was then is as it is now
[01:07.28]And as it will be then
[01:08.99]Far beyond the grasp of men
[01:10.65]We live our lives in routines that only end when we do
[01:13.37]To keep our hearts beating
[01:14.58]Sleep wake breathe air eat food
[01:16.24]We reproduce
[01:17.24]Then what we produce reproduces
[01:19.28]Grow up like we did wondering what life and truth is
[01:22.15]We look out of the windows of our Souls
[01:24.20]Setting chasing goals
[01:25.19]As time shifts through decades centuries millennia
[01:27.55]
[01:28.15]Spread out behind and ahead of ya
[01:30.27]Eternally
[01:30.92]We focus on our tiny lives searching for what our purpose be
[01:33.98]Tryna buld something worthwhile before our time's done
[01:36.53]For some life's a war
[01:38.08]They wanna say that they've won
[01:39.81]For some life's a test
[01:41.00]They wanna say that they've passed
[01:42.66]For some life's an idea
[01:44.01]They wanna say that they've grasped
[01:45.61]But can we
[01:46.38]With all our weaknesses and limits
[01:48.24]Tryna overstand the infinite in lives merely made of minutes
[01:51.39]Tryna bring existence to a level we can wrap our head round
[01:54.69]Capture the universe in words we can sound
[01:57.23]Over simplifying the thing that is the most complex
[01:59.82]Imagine life in our image
[02:01.46]Compress it into concepts
[02:02.82]
[02:03.36]Kind of insane
[02:04.35]We live and die on this plane so we claim
[02:06.60]Everything must be subject to the same
[02:08.49]
[02:09.27]The universe is in a state of constant change
[02:11.61]Yet things that have always been
[02:12.87]Might have always been
[02:13.56]And may always remain
[02:14.47]
[02:15.00]Life works in cycles or circles or spheres
[02:17.42]We try place limits on the infinite to deal with our fear
[02:20.60]Of not knowing
[02:21.84]And knowing that we don't know
[02:23.37]We make facts from theories and lies
[02:25.30]To get on with our lives
[02:26.84]Ask for answers we could never start to overstand
[02:29.45]Live following some next heads guess
[02:31.14]Serving their plans
[02:32.75]Making worse the situation that we try to mend
[02:35.47]We disregard or bend forces we can't even comprehend
[02:38.36]Never mind explain
[02:39.58]Or act in their name
[02:40.79]Or know what they think or say
[02:42.70]Guess it's the human way
[02:44.28]Leads some to wage war and some to claim they don't exist
[02:47.02]
[02:47.69]Claiming all we see is all there is
[02:49.55]No higher force
[02:50.55]But maybe we're too small to see the scale of it
[02:52.99]The sun don't chill or set we turn away from it
[02:55.59]
[02:56.28]What we call truth now aint all there is
[02:58.54]Maybe every theory's right and wrong
[03:00.15]
[03:00.72]Balanced opposites
[03:01.41]
[03:01.93]The battle constantly but opposites attract
[03:03.87]For every action there an opposite that's equal and exact
[03:07.36]Opposites in perfect balance keep the universe in tact
[03:10.20]Life death being non-being
[03:11.89]Autumn Spring Yang and Ying
[03:13.63]Maybe we live forever and for just a passing bit
[03:16.47]Maybe we're the whole universe and just a part of it
[03:19.51]Maybe we're nothing and everything that's ever been
[03:22.19]All and nothing
[03:23.09]All that exists without exists within
[03:25.26]Maybe when you realise your nothing you can learn to see
[03:28.05]That you are everything
[03:29.18]Everything that you will ever need
[03:30.80]And so
[03:31.16]
[03:31.92]I sit staring at a cold sun
[03:33.64]
[03:34.20]Forcing it's rays through the stitches of a grey veil
[03:36.63]
[03:37.47]The sky below is deep but the shades pale
[03:40.05]The wind rushes through my spirit like a ship's sail
[03:42.44]
[03:43.09]I'm submerged in this city
[03:44.80]Connect with the earth under pavements
[03:46.95]Searching for nature
[03:48.16]
[03:49.17]I mediate on road under streetlights
[03:51.72]Sit writing and chanting my mantras beneath trees
[03:53.98]
[03:54.72]Forged with the souls of the ancients
[03:56.58]I thrive off their wisdom
[03:57.93]I drink from the infinite stream of existence
[04:00.41]
[04:01.03]Strive to sync my moves with the flow of the Tao
[04:03.33]
[04:03.92]As it was then is as it is now
[04:05.76]
[04:07.05]And as it will be then
[04:08.34]
[04:09.58]Beyond the grasp of women and men
[04:11.28]
[04:12.67]As it was then is as it is now
[04:14.79]And as it will be then
[04:16.24]Far beyond the grasp of men
[04:17.63]
[04:19.28]Far beyond the grasp of men
[04:20.72]
[04:22.14]Far beyond the grasp of men
